Secondly for load balancing nexus use the services of a CDN provider, all changes in nexus needs time to propagate out to all servers this provider has before it works well.

So I suggest just wait till the process has been completed.

try restarting your computer .

 

I dont know how I didnt realize but this problem actually started yesterday. Since then my computer HAS shut down of course. Im going to try restarting it.

 

Edit: After restarting, nothing changed. Still wont download at all. I remember when reinstalling NMM I got an error. Going to reinstall again to see if I get it again.

 

Edit2: This is the error I get after re-installing and launching NMM https://gyazo.com/329b1311c1fd5afce2ce7f63ba7e0f98


That error sounds like you need elevated permissions for the call to CreateProcess to succeed.
Try running it as an Administrator.

Hi folks,

We're aware of some issues with our download mechanism today which certain users are experiencing on certain files. The problem stems from our current work trying to get the sites switched over to a fully SSL secured system -- a complex and costly procedure we've been working on for some time now to better secure our sites and your user data.

Because the way this is affecting the CDN, this issue is likely to get worse before it gets better as the CDN cache begins to empty out. We obviously hope to get it fixed as soon as possible, but it could take some time. Hopefully hours, rather than days!

Your bandwidth bill must be insane.


I don't think bittorrent would really work in this context -- it would require everyone to actually seed the file indefinitely, whereas a CDN (which could be multiple servers) would ensure that the file would be available.

Also using bittorrent would shift the costs, of bandwidth, from the nexusmods to the end-user and would probably result in certain mods no longer being available or taking a really long time to download -- due to the lack of seeders. (This is why nexusmods has premium/pay service to help alleviate those costs)

I thought most bittorrent things like this described are mainly hosted by the actual host but if another user has it and has seeding selected then it helps alleviate a small amount of the stress. I don't see it helping the Nexus that much except for highly popular mods like SKYUI and things like that.
