Njonin Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I am unable to download any mods. Firefox and IE both give me timed out messages. I am logged in, with whatever the lesser membership is. Any suggestions are appreciated in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dariusblack Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'm having the same problem. Tried manually, with the manager, it's not even finding the files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faeriexdecay Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) I was looking for somewhere to comment on this, and it looks like I've found the place. I'm becoming more and more annoyed trying to download mods because the site seems to want to try to remember the server I last used (not all of the time but some of the time). And when I try a server that isn't wanting to load, I want to try another server. But then I click to try to download, the site sometimes automatically picks whatever server I chose last, even if it isn't working, and I have to sit there and wait and wait and wait, unable to select a different server, and it's incredibly frustrating. At first, I felt like this remember-the-server feature was neat when I was downloading lots of mods consecutively, but now with all the activity that's bogged the site down, the remember-the-server thing just causes me to have to sit and wait for long periods of time, stuck trying to download certain mods until I can choose a new server. Just wanted to throw this out here. Trying to download mods over the past week has gotten more and more frustrating, and now I can't even choose the UK server (the only one that seemed to work) when I want to because it keeps trying to remember the last none-working server I selected, one of the US ones. Apologies if any of this sounds venomous. I'm incredibly irritated right now and want nothing more than to choose a new download server, lol. Edit: Also, I tried using different browsers, but my computer/the site/whatever still wanted to remember the last server I clicked on and wouldn't let me choose a different one either. >.< Edited December 11, 2011 by faeriexdecay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uzibeatle Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 It is the site. Nexus is so painful to use these days it is like pulling my own teeth without the benefit of drugs. There have been times when Nexus Mod Manager claims 'file not found ' or some such nonsense after twadlingfor a minute or so and then I can find the same file by normal means browsing the site in Firefox so download it that way. Not just you. I had expected things to die down by this time but it appears the load is the same as it was shortly after Skyrim release. That said, IMO, Nexus has always been sort of a laggy site to work with and back when FNV was popularit was often the case things would be very slow. I suppose things aren't scaling as well as they had planned and whatever issues they had a year or so ago are justthat much worse now. I hope they can fix things up performance wise before a lot of people just give up. I wonder if one pays a premium if the issues go away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maboru Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Similar issues with Premium too, but only with Skyrim Nexus, the others still work fine. I found that if I log in on a different computer then all's well again. This leads me to believe that only the Skyrim web hosting software is glitching out on individual IP addresses. Probably due to the constant assault it's been under since Skyrim's release. With over 4 million units sold even the UESP wiki gets dorked up. No one saw this coming!

maboru Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Definitely site hosting problems. Today Skyrim Nexus has lost it background image, FONV Nexus has lost it's header and this forum's tab icon is missing on my gaming computer but everything is still normal when I log in with my laptop. It's got to be an IP address identifier issue. [Well I guess it doesn't really 'got to be', after all, what the heck do I know about it! Just hope they can fix it.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
