ninjakreborn Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I noticed when using the in-game mod system built into the game it disables achievements. What are the differences in using the built in modding system, and manually modding using nexus mod manager or just manually doing it through this website? Also, if you do it through this website or nexus mod manager does it disable achievements that way too? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethreon Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Any way of using mods will disable achievements. In order to avoid that, you can use a F4SE dependent mod that allows you to bypass the dumb system Beth made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pra Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Why do people care so much about achievements? This a twitch tv thing or what?More like an OCD thing, I believe. At least I know a guy for whom it is like that :D I still prefer Nexus, though. It's been around longer, also, there was all this mod theft drama... And I like the nexus website better, at least it doesn't look like some mobile app store ripoff and doesn't take half an hour to load (usually). Also, seeing how the most popular mods on bethesda.net are things like "cheat terminal", "cheat room", "unlimited crafting supplies", I doubt I'm it's the target audience. Btw, is it possible to use that in-game system to install mods which you just downloaded as a zip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiskeyRiver2 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Btw, is it possible to use that in-game system to install mods which you just downloaded as a zip? Nope. The only way to install a mod via the in-game "function" is to download it from Bethesda's site. IMHO, unless the mod you want is, for some reason, only available through Bethesda's system, you're far better off sticking to sites like the Nexus or even ModDB, and installing all your mods either manually or via NMM/MO or whatever other tool(s) exist for that purpose.

tartarsauce2 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I noticed the ingame mod system when I first loaded up the game and then went to nexus and used its system and didn't look backthe mod system notices the stuff nexus mod thing puts up though I noticed recently, I don't think it used to or somethingneat, still using NMM thoughapparently the old fashioned way of making mods work without a manager is slightly more efficient and effective if you know what you're doing, but you see, I barely do so I'll continue using NMM :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavkiel Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Why do people care so much about achievements? This a twitch tv thing or what? More like giving the middle finger to the Devs. I don't care about achievements. I do care about them arbitrarily stripping out content to please console manufacturers.

jtzako Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 There is a mod that re enables the achievements. Though I believe it requires using F4SE (PC only of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danneyo Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Maybe that was the point? Console gamers care way more about achievements, so disabling them, knowing the PC users could just make a mod to enable them, doesn't seem far fetched.
