Erem Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Am I correct in thinking that there is no way to reply to a specific post on the forums, only on the Nexus itself or by quoting the post I want to reply to? A search of this topic turned up a similar question from back in 2013 but I just want to make sure that a) I understood correctly and b) nothing has changed since then. If there isn't any way to reply to a post on the forums, is there a way to add basic formatting to a reply on the Nexus (e.g. bold, italics, links)? Or do I have to continue doing what I do currently: reply to the post on the Nexus then switch to the forum, edit my reply, and add the formatting/links? It seems a very cumbersome way of doing things, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something obvious. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oubliette Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 On the forum side you quote the post you want to reply to or you can add @+the posters name, but generally you can use the quote/multi quote feature. If you want to add formating to a post on the nexus you need to switch to the forum view, the formatting will copy over to the nexus side. So, yes, keep doing what you're doing. The forum code and the nexus code are two different animals which is why they work very differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronOfMpls Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Yah, I copy-and-paste over sometimes, too, usually when I want a different font or text color. Otherwise, if you know (or can look up) basic BBCode, you can type it yourself in file/image comments. (I usually type it in the forums, too, since I'm generally more comfortable with it.*) I assume you've found the light-switch button in the forum editor already, for grabbing the code. And yes, there are some differences in which codes work where (such as youtube tags working only on files/images). Spoiler tags at least now work the same in both places, thanks to a recent update. And an updated editor for the file/image side seems to be on the Nexus to-do list. * deleted remark about how in my day, we didn't have WYSIWYG editors on forums, blah blah blah uphill, both ways, in the snow, over dial-up... :smile: Edited February 24, 2015 by AaronOfMpls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerpetualNomad1 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I hope I am in the right spot, but since I have a question I must be. I am dowloading some mods and a couple of them failed of were cancelled. I sweep the failed mods out of he download manager of NMM, but when I try to download them again it gives me an error that tells me that they are already downloading. What am I doing wrong? Are the mods still downloading after they failed? How can I download the files if NMM keeps sending me this error? Wrong place - This is the SITE feedback and not NMM troubleshooting. You will not get much help by posting in the wrong place.Bben46 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erem Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 @Oubliette & AaronOfMpls: Thanks for the replies. I was wondering what that light-switch button did as it was the only one that didn't offer an explanation when I hovered over it, and I hadn't been brave enough to click on it to find out. A few years back, I used BBCode a fair bit on a ProBoards forum (and also preferred typing it manually to clicking the icons), so I might have a go at entering [b] and [/b] etc. directly on the Nexus.

derekthedj Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) A site suggestion: Can you allow site users to expand YouTube videos to fullscreen? It's hard to examine mod details in a little tiny window. Edited February 25, 2015 by derekthedj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronOfMpls Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Derek: Click the controls in the bottom right corner of the player. You can add the video to your "watch later" list, view it on youtube.com, or open it full-screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong place. This the the general Nexus site "Feedback, suggestions and questions" forum. You need to use the one appropriate for the specific game, and in this case for the specific mod, involved. --TNL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Di0nysys Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I have a question regarding musical content in Mods. Is is acceptable to include a remix of a musical piece in a mod on the Nexus? The content in mind is a complete recreation of the original both in recording and arrangement. Does doing so infringe on Nexus rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thandal Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 @lennykrapitz; The same rules apply to music tracks as to any other content you're going to use in a mod. If you didn't create it yourself (your own performance) you need permission from whoever did. If it's your own work you can use it. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
