If they control the creation kit they can eventually state in the rules that you have to put the mod on their site. Then they will charge for it.ESO = Failure went free to play. Doom = Failure had to release free demo and extend it. cannot say much about FO4 because I did not buy it, but have read the fiasco over charging too much for season pass and poor dlc content.They should concentrate on making a decent game that we do not have to fix instead of raping peoples wallet.

"Because Bethesda wants to eventually corner the market and be the by far largest and most used mod distributing site, that way they can more easily control what gets put out, growns in popularity, sinks ins popularity etc etcI'd just like to point out one other thing Beth already has paid mods they are called DLC.

Using identical words for both causes quite a bit of confusion at times."The solution starts with me". I participate in "mod creation" because I am creating a mod (albeit very slowly and painfully). I also participate in "mod installation", because I have downloaded and installed mods. I know that "mod creation" and "mod installation" are verbose. but sometimes more words actually clarify a situation.

The Nexus needed a creation kit specialized thread. However when the Skyrim Special Addition comes out you may want to consider keeping the creation kit thread for PC modders separate from the console modders. Quote Takashiro wrote: All mods are made on pc anyway, i see no need in trying to keep it separate. Unless this is just more of that unnecessary hate for console mods which i really dont get,ether way putting up a wall between them would not do any good for anyone.There needs to be more interaction between console and pc mod users. Ive been talking to console players on beth net and they can see that nexus has something to offer them in the way of contact with mod devs. Those I talked to understand that porting to a console is not always straight forward and are willing to help with beta testing.
DeJuanNOnley Posted June 23, 2016 Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Great idea! Would it be possible to add one for discussing mod installer issues as well (help with ModuleConfig.xml, etc.)? I've noticed these threads also get lost in the Mod Talk forums. Edited June 23, 2016 by DeJuanNOnley

Will someone please WRITE a tutorial? I know there are dozens of YouTube videos but if you have hearing difficulties like I do they are virtually worthless, and secondly for the lucky folks with good hearing, it is very difficult to do any kind of search other than scrubbing through frames. And Nexus, thank you for breaking this out-- it will make finding stuff much simpler.Basic one, hope it helps

They are doing Gods work with keeping it updated and adding more features. Searching at Beth.net for their recent activity is almost a pain (In the..). Just a thought. :smile:The latest version of the FO4 Script extender is available at the exact same place it has always been available - http://f4se.silverlock.org/ :thumbsup: There is NO advertising, NO tracking and No registration required. And it's FREE. :dance: So why would you even want to get F4SE somewhere else? The new version will always be posted there first. And downloading it from anywhere else is probably a mistake.For those that don't know how to install it, the instructions are included in the zip file.

I promise you they absolutely would NOT allow the Nexus to be the official source for mods and remain independently operated, and if they controlled it, there would be many undesirable changes.

I know I have to write a script, but I have no idea what a proper script looks like. Once I have that, I can use it as a reference tool to use as a model for making my companion script... Anyone want to post what a companion script looks like with the companion wheel included? Quote WileyQuixote wrote: It sounds more like you are talking about dialogue related to a quest. If that is the case than a google search for "how do I add companion dialogue to a quest" should net you several very nice tutorials for Skyrim that are still relevant as far as I know.If you are talking about Scripts (Papyrus). Get ready for the fun and excitement of Chinese Algebra. Wait a minute Chinese Algebra was easier. In all seriousness though a search for "Papyrus Wiki" should get to the Wiki for Papyrus that has some decent tutorials and references. You shouldn't need a new script unless you want your companion to have some custom behavior. If you're fine with the default companion behavior, then just use the default companion script.As for what a proper script looks like, well, load up a normal companion in the CK, look through their attached scripts until you find the script you want, and study it. As Wiley said, google Papyrus wiki for any bits you don't understand.
