You can still download manual then install using nmm.

I'm sorry for asking again I couldn't find my original post but is the original Skyrim mods page going to be deleted? Also will mods still be updated or new mods to be made. Please answer. I'm nervous that I've wasted my time gathering mods for my future game

It's been explained before that Skyrim SE exists as a separate game from Skyrim. If you use steam you'd notice how they are treated as two separate games. The Nexus is treating them just like that. Skyrim Original will still have it's mod site and nothing is happening to it. Skyrim SE got it's own mod site. So chill out and just read through the news archives.

I understand the drain that heavy traffic is causing, but I have to ask. Have notifications been turned off in order to help? I haven't received notifications on any of my tracked files or authors in a couple of days. My setting are the same, so I wondered what's up with it.

Thank You to @Synn88 for Noticing an Error I did (I change the view & Change once and will stay changed)
Click Mod tab -->
Click on "Switch the Mod Manger Views" (Last icon listed on the left) -->
New Clean View
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go to the mod you want to download -->
Click Green Button Says " DOWNLOAD (MANUAL)" -->
Scroll Down and Click "download manually" (For the main file)-->
Click Green Button says "CONTINUE WITH MY DOWNLOAD"-->
Go into nexus mod manger -->
Go to Mod tab -->
Click plus (In top left hand corner of tab) -->
Select the file you just download -->
Wait (The mod is listed without check mark) -->
Double Click (Left of mod name) mod -->
Setup starts or Activated(Check-mark by mod)

PS If you have problems purge downloads.

Drag and drop doesn't work either...

charmin86 wrote: At first: Thank's for the tutorial!

What I really don't understand is that so many people always need someone to tell em what to do nowadays...If I have problems like these I would simply use google to find the answer. It seems like evolution is taking a huge step backwards.
This is not ment to be harsh, just my opinion.

srlockh wrote: Hey, thanks for the solution, it worked here. But there's a problem, some mods (20/50 i downloaded) shows a error message whenever i try to add it throught the plus button. It says: Mod can't be added - Status: Incomplete. I don't know what it its, tried to fix it but nothing came as a solution.

Because clicking on the big ? icon inside NMM that brings you to a WIKI page that also has video tutorials to answer any and all questions is too hard for people to do, and instead, when they run into the slightest problem, immediately ask for help and hand-holding?

That explains why Bethesda keeps making heir interface easier and easier with quest markers for every little thing, because people obviously aren't being taught any kind of critical thinking whatsoever, so when they run into a snag, instead of trying to figure it out, they immediately post their problem on several forums at once, because it's easier to have people tell you what to do, rather than figure things out for yourself.

The more you figure out things for yourself, the more you learn and retain.
Having someone else do the thinking for you robs you of the opportunity to learn and improve.
A lot of modders had to figure things out for themselves, it's why they got so good at what they do.

This is a "Dude, you guys are awesome and thanks for keeping us informed." post.

 

I know you guys are getting hammered right now and some of the less... "mature" mod users are screeching like giant babies (who can't read a sticky post to boot.), but the fact that you guys somehow managed to keep this site up and running *at all* this weekend is a HUGE FREAKING DEAL, and speaks actual mountains about how on top of things you all are. I don't think there is a better ran site, with more involved and caring admin than we have right here at the Nexus.

 

GIANT KUDOS GUYS.

Yes they have.
