Purr4me Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I'll make sure some things show up "Dark and Gloomy" if i can.Mods are fun to make...dealing with what comes afterwards is the hard part. There is an awful lot of talent Just salivating to get into the new game.I get all the Broadcasts in steam's profiles here, on my phone, and at my office too about the hord of wants and not wants. Oh what fun is to come.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackRampage Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Not saying Paradox or Blackened are among the worst, because they're not - but even they are quite irritating. Having to mix and match between mods, compatibility patch here, resource there, one being updated whilst the other is lagging behind. That's the first time ever I've heard any complaints about "having to mix and match between mods" in regards to Blackened and Paradox. I was always under the impression we did the community a service by releasing those mods. I can't speak for Paradox, but that's usually the kind of feedback I get on the Blackened patches.Never heard any complaints about instructions in any way either. Plenty of guides out there on the interwebs regardless.Neither of those 2 mods are in any way outdated either. And ironically, Blackened was created exactly because the pre-existing patches that existed for the mods Blackened supports were the ones that were outdated.

Draxavior Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 I don't mean to paint a dire picture, because you did do the community a service with those patches.I guess what managed to annoy me was the information i lacked with the Paradox stuff. I'll tell you how it went ;) FWE Looks neat, I want that. *grabs*FWE CO - Looks neat, I want that. *grabs, realizes it's too buggy and removes it*EVE Looks neat, I want that. *Grabs, picks up that he needs FOIP for it to work with FWE. Gets FOIP, realizes it's outdated - looks elsewhere*Blackened - Well this looks alright, I guess. No idea what a Paradox thingy is - Def need Paradox Eve, now wtf is that? I search around for a while in annoyance.Ready to give up as there's nothing called a EVE Paradox, I stumble into Paradox Ignition mod(s) and quickly look around that page, missing the "EVE now has Paradox by default" in the updates list - because I'm not looking for updates, I'm looking for Paradox EVE to finally get this thing working. Paradox left me with a easily missed tiny sentence to say Paradox EVE is now integrated in it's original mod. Since i missed that one wee sentence, i ent up looking back and forth and thinking there was no Paradox EVE after all and was ready to try my luck with an outdated FOIP again. See what I'm getting at? xD The mods themselves are great, and I am not free of blame as i -did- miss the one sentence of EVE having Paradox integrated. But Blackened infopage says you need the Paradox Ignition version of EVE, so that sent me on a wild goose chase - for something that kind of doesn't exist anymore. These are things that quickly leads to confusion for people who have never seen the infopages of these mods, but are met with a wall of text of updates.List all current features, -then- updates and changes. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) I guess you missed this on the Blackened page: Please note that EVE-related patches can only be used in conjunction with the Unified Paradox version of EVE.The latest EVE installer will now provide you with this version of EVE. In order to successfully mod this or any game, you must read all of the information on the page. Edited June 26, 2015 by M48A5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
