I've had forced downloads, forced redirects to spammy sites such as 'the brit method', loads of pop ups, ads that forced the screen to the bottom of the page and many ads covering the screen. It ONLY happens on this site. I can barely use the site anymore because ads make it intolerable.

Report ads that do this.On you'r part you could pay the small fee to have ads permanently removed, or if you're to stingy and these ads really ruin your experience you could use an adblocker.

I've been reporting ads for months now, it's getting boring and having no money is hardly stingy.

The only feature I want is: Inclusive Searching with Filter options.

 

What I mean is, I want to be able to search using a phrase or word like normal, "werewolf" for example. Then, instead of looking through everything, I want to be able to select and de-select categories. Maybe I want to search for werewolf related mods but I know I don't want wereworld followers, so I want to exclude all the follower and companion categories.

 

We have SO many mods now days. It's not like 6 years ago. So many mods get buried and are almost never seen.

 

Speaking of which, something else we really need is user added keywords. The same way Steam does it. A good bit of mod authors like to give their mods confusing non-descriptive names and sometimes dn't upload to the correct categories. So users could add keywords or maybe even phrases that describe the mod in their own words. I know we have Tags, but I honestly can't see what they're doing for mods. Do they affect anything?

 

I'm just trying to figure out a way to find more hidden gems, as I'm sure you guys are as well. Endorsements aren't enough because people don't seem to do it often enough. Maybe it's something only the community can do. Maybe we could get some sort of keyword section that goes to the bottom of the description page and then let users suggest keywords and the author could approve them. I've run into at least 3 different mods this month that I never would have found if the mod author's latest mod didn't get a mention on reddit.

A big second on Millennia! His tutorials of old are priceless and him and his teams' work is all-around top notch.

For a feature article request, I would like to hear what third party software modders use, what they used to start, what are some freeware alternatives, and what tools do they see becoming prevelant or needed in the future. I could use a freeware version of a good 3d model painter to use with GIMP and 3ds Max.

For future tutorials, original mesh to texture, to game implementation series with a model to mimic similar to Millenia's 2012 shotgun series would be very helpful. Stretch the series to simple new world space, sound, NPC, etc with greater degrees of skill. Most important goal is getting us future modders from initial custom assets/simple mods with new assets to medium skill levels.

The last feature, would be some way of tagging and searching for trainers to help a with a group learning modding via chat and video/desktop and to clearly tag teams of people willing to help on projects: writers, artists, composers, voice actors, graphic artists, scripters/coders, etc.

A strong focus on tutorials, training, easier access to various modders skillsets and those that are available for potential projects would greatly benefit the community and site, by encouraging and fostering new content and its makers. A system where modders volunteer or make themselves available for a future project, while showing how many past, present and future commitments would be ideal, along with a rating system for "mods in development I have the most interest in" to allow mod authors to pick projects with tons of interest or lesser known ones that are promising.

I write... And can come up with more ideas and content related to writing/communications. I will even run it thru word processing and an editor for clarity and professionalism! (Not forum posts though most times) Edited October 25, 2016 by OlrunZaal

I got sucked back into Skyrim recently, and each time I learn more. However stumbling upon this channel has given me the information necessary to make sure I'm doing it 100% correct. The tutorial videos are detailed, easy to understand, and easy to navigate.

I think many others, like myself, when we start dipping out toes into the modding pond, that we don't do so with the understanding we need to optimize our Skyrim, and as such our experience. Given the remaster that is coming out this week I think it would be great if this is the first thing the spotlight is shined on.

Because quite frankly it does us no good to get into the mods, if we don't know how we should be setting them up in the first place.

You're a good person = )
I'm always up for a chat.

Without the SKSE team + Arthmoor, there is no Nexus. But they probably don't care about interviews

 

After that, Kryptopyr / Enai / Chesko / Sheson

 

Boris?

One more content suggestion: monthly top ten new nexus downloads exposes. Develop a slightly formulaic process to showcase the best of monthly downloads and their authors, in addition to the standard top ten videos that mainly showcase the mods. A little more personal biography from the authors to give it a human touch would help, immensely, in addition to humor and future projects being sprinkled in the Exposes.
