ForceRex Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Your work is really appreciated! This community is a big part of what has made Skyrim so enduring. The amount of effort you and so many mod authors are already clearly putting into the Special Edition is something we can only be thankful for.

WanderingIvie Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thanks for managing the chaos so well! And I have to say, while it is inconvenient, it's nice to know that the Skyrim modding community is still so active 5 years later. Is there any kind of ETA for when NMM services will be back? I know you can't make any guarantees, but an educated guess for when we should check back would be helpful. Will there be another news bulletin to let us know?

In the case of SKSE based mods this was expected. I am however, greatly concerned about older mod compatibility. I personally use a number of older mods which have not been updated in some time and are not likely to be ported to SSE because the authors feel the mods are complete, they are busy and can't mod, etc. What will happen with these mods? Will people who wish to use these mods in SSE simply be out of luck?It seems like we are heading for a scenario where lots of great mods will not be available for SSE for whatever reason but newer mods, or newer versions of mods, will only be available for SSE.I would greatly appreciate some *detailed* news/explanation/FAQ addressing this issue (or links if they already exist). What kinds of modes will need to be upgraded/ported? Will all mods need to go through the new CK? Just certain mods, like those using BSA? What about scripted mods? What about older mods that work just fine but probably wont get ported?If I missed news answering these questions I apologize but so far I have been unable to find good answers to these questions, and what info I have found has been unclear.I would also like to take this time to thank the modding community for all their hard work. Your efforts have greatly enriched Skyrim and made it one of the best gaming experiences ever. Thank you. Quote blackdawn101 wrote: Unfortunately that isnt really for Nexus to decide or really have any input on. It's entirely dependant on the userbase, and thus indirectly the team/individual whom made the mod you are using. If it's out of date, chances are it wont be updated again.However, many mod incompatibilities are mainly due to the fact that SSE is running on a 64bit engine, which SKSE is currently incompatible with due to it being 32bit. It is logical to say that many mods whom require SKSE will be compatible when SKSE is update for use with SSE - but that isnt a garuntee.all you can do is hope! Quote KiraCura wrote: Hmm.. Ive actually been thinking about this very same issue... I wonder if its possible to get a hold of the mod authors and ask if one of us can go through the process of making their mods 64 bit compatible on behalf of them and of course give them credit. That would seem like one of the best solutions though it would be really hard to get in contact with someone who likely isn't around anymore or has old contact info. It's really just stumping me on how else we're going to get some great mods to come out for skyrim SE... meh. what to do...? Quote wigpidgeon wrote: I wouldn't worry too much...I spent quite a while browsing the SkyrimSE mods last night, installing all the ones that I liked the sound of...In the hour or two that I was browsing through the mods, another 15 or 20 appeared that weren't in the list when I started looking. New mods seem to be appearing fast, and all the ones I've seen so far are very useful. Yes, there are a couple of important ones missing, mainly SKSE and SkyUI, but once those two appear, I'll be very happy!I'd also like to thank the great people who put so much time and effort into making these mods, so that my Skyrim experience is more enjoyable, and of course, the guys at Nexus Mods who make installing and managing mods so simple and painless. I don't think I'd still be playing Skyrim if it wasn't for you guys.

(and yes, SSE runs on my 7 year old broken potato laptop as well... medium settings 30-40fps, im getting permission to post the fix i used on here. til then, search youtube is all im allowed to say)Am with what seems to be a majority so far that there are lots of us out there who'd likely even enjoy going thru the mod authors' work and bringing TESV and this abortion closer together. 64 bit isn't that tough but all the FNIS, SKSE and MCM stuff...damn! But what's a mountain with thousands+ people working towards the summit? A long hill! I REALLY think Bethesda dropped the ball favoring Fallout 4 over TES6, that can only be money driven/console oriented which I get... but hey, we have our own choices to make, too! Mine's an i7 5820K, 32Gb, 4x SSD/1x M.2, GTX 1080 2x SLI choice, water cooled and shackled to an ASUSROG Rampage V Extreme/U3.1 waiting for a reason to try to love Skyrim all over again...for the MODS!!! Hell I'm 50 and build customs for a living (for 15+ years now)... a pretty looking XBOX or PS...well it's STILL lipstick on a pig!! Give the master slaves...er.. mod authors the credit they so absolutely, if not richly deserve.. it's only slaving if you don't like to do it.. and leave Bethesda alone with their marketing plans to decide what THEY really want.. then we can fix it :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
