Just something I'd like to share for new and returning Nexus users regarding SSE and its future, coming from a user just like you:
***************************************************************

We, the community, need to be very patient and respectful as modders navigate this exciting but turbulent time brought on by SSE. There are many hurtles that modders will need to jump, some more than others, to bring their original Skyrim content to SSE, as well as some things many of them need to wait for (e.g. SKSE to be rewritten for SSE, etc). We need to be respectful and appreciative of their efforts and time, not only because of what they do for us, but also because if we are not then some of them, understandably so, may leave the SSE modding scene (as some of them left the original Skyrim scene). If that begins to happen then there is, in my opinion, no chance that SSE will surpass original Skyrim (even despite 64-bit, Dx11, etc).

Let us not forget the Nexus staff either! The guys who work around the clock, particularly during heavy traffic times like this, who make it all possible. Skyrim wouldn't be what it is without the modders but if it weren't for the incredible people running The Nexus what many of us have come to take for granted would have never been possible in the first place! They have worked just as hard as Skyrim's modders and I feel that they get the short-end of the stick, in terms of appreciation, because the focus is often directly on modding/modders of Skyrim, not so much on the site that hosts them. So we must also be appreciative and respectful of the Nexus staff, especially now more than ever as they are currently experiences higher volumes of site traffic than ever before and have a lot of work cut out for them to manage this situation brought on by SSE.

Spread that message/sentiment far and wide around the community because it is a very real possibility that SSE could splinter this community more than it will breathe new life into it; the deciding factor is, in my opinion, ultimately how we, the community, treat the modders and Nexus staff that have gone to such lengths to make Skyrim what is today!




THANK YOU to all modders, you guys and gals are amazing people! AND HUUUUGE thanks to the entire Nexus Mods and Mod Manager team for everything you do. This community and game certainly wouldn't be what it is without you guys too!

Rebel47 wrote: I always love reading your essays (sorry did I say essays, I meant posts ;) )

I do fully agree with your points though, many of the mods I have grown to love over the years have lost their original author through one way or another, It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who thinks we need to band together as a community and work to heal the rift that has been made by the past misjudgements of others.
ThyHarrowing wrote: HAHAHA, nice to see you again Rebel! It's been awhile, I've barely touched Skyrim/modding in a couple years besides periodic check-ins lol. Yeah I'm back so look forward to more essays!

Sent you a PM btw

The Skyrim (original) modding community was not built over night, all the best mods came months and years later. If I read correctly the new CK will come next week and the SKSE will probably not be long after by what I have heard, though give them time.

I love this site, I love mods and though I sadly have no talent for creating anything relevant, I do not feel I have the right to complain either. Most of the people making things also have a life and do mods out of love in their spare time. Respec them!

Kudos and could not agree more with the statement above. Have a great day and have fun with your new Skyrim!

Correct, the new CK will be out next week but we don't really have an accurate idea as to when SKSE will be re-written as far as I'm aware. It won't be too long in the grand scheme of things I'm sure. What will really be a nail biter is what happens with SkyUI/MCM since Schlangster said he won't be doing the legwork for updating it. We were all spoiled for so long with MCM that it would be unbearable to go back to using in-game settings books and dialogue menus for users and mod authors alike so I think that at some point somebody will step up and do the legwork for Schlangster but the quesiton is... when?

Hmm, I knew it would be pretty involved to rewrite it for x64 but I honestly didn't think we would be looking at that long of a wait. Is that a guess or did you find some info on it?
Rebel47 wrote: Skyrim Script Extender page has a small notice on the top stating that it will not be a quick and easy process since they have to adapt to many changes and all of them will have to be investigated on a case by case basis, for word by word reference click here

Also there is this informative post from behippo on Beth net forums click here

All of this and the other discussions I've had with members of other gaming communities implies that this will be a long drawn out process but time will tell if that ends up being the case.

I'm expecting a pretty similar SseKSE as F4SE is due to that fact.

So no current SKSE can't just be converted to x64. It's either a remake from scratch or a conversion from F4SE.
ThyHarrowing wrote: @ErikRedbeard

Actually, upon doing some more reading (directly from the SKSE team on Reddit) SSE is somewhere in the middle of Skyrim and F4, slightly more on the Skyrim side of the continuum. So adapting SKSE to SSE will actually not be that much like F4SE; in other words, once they finish F4SE it won't be a super quick adaptation from there to SSE.

I forget the post date of what I read but it couldn't have been
more than a few days ago... it said they have 1 guy working on F4SE and 1 guy doing some preliminary stuff for the SSE SKSE. And I think it said there was 1 guy assisting with both but I might be wrong on that. Sorry if I got that part wrong, I was in a hurry while I was reading those posts.

They did also say that they would prioritize rewriting all the hooks that are used in the functionality of some of the top mods out for SSE so that those mods can again be fully featured as soon as possible. The less frequently used hooks will follow in later releases of SSE SKSE I assume.

Anyway, bottom-line: it is gonna be A LOT of work and we should not get our hopes up for it being released any time soon. We just need to be patient and supportive. These guys rock and they'll get it to us as soon as they possibly can!


yeah i guess this is due to the fact that skyrim se still uses the same script engine as the original.. this will make it a little easier.. at least i hope so.. but on the other hand the script extender for f4 seems to be a nightmare for them.. i don't play fallout myself but i heard that the script extender is still in alpha after a very long time and lots of stuff still doesn't work.. i guess it's really hard to bring it to the same functionality as skse in the original game had with the new architecture of the game engine and/or updated script engine.. we will see how long it takes.. it will take a while for sure so the beginning of the sse modding will be just as the release of the original when there was no skse and some of the geniuses got a really deep look into the game and found out how the game really works.. i mean what would have skyrim modding been without things like shesons memory patch or boris enboost and enb series and yes also the mcm from skyui.. i guess some mods will take quite a while to be ported over, some will never come but there is one thing i know about the best modding community in the world: someone will take over a project like skyui or bring us an alternative.. maybe it will take a while but i am sure modding the sse will be just as much fun for me as the original.. well more likely even more.. we all know how good a modded skyrim runs sometimes xD (for me like 450 mods, 256 plugins, enb) ctds every now and then are unavoidable.. i think this will be far better with the remaster..
THANK YOU bethesda for making the remaster, THANK YOU nexus for giving us this website, THANK YOU mod authors for letting me have fun with this game like 1000 hours without getting bored, making my game look great and so much more enjoyable to play, THANK YOU everyone working on tools like tes5edit, bodyslide, skse, fnis, loot and mod managers for giving modders and mod users the possibilitys for some of the great stuff in the first place and make everyones lifes so much easier.. THANK YOU boris for your enbseries.. you gave skyrim some great effects that wouldn't be possible without your hard work.. without ALL of you skyrim wouldn't have been what it is now..
i guess the only game i spend nearly as much time with was oblivion..
but then reading things like bethesda would be greedy for making the remaster and charge 60 bucks for it on consoles makes me sad.. bethesda did it cause people wanted it.. they give it for free to the pc users.. what game developer would do that? i bought the remaster and all dlcs as when they were released and that was like 100 bucks.. but it was so worth it.. i spent so much time in skyrim.. other games like rise of the tomb raider costed me 60 when released and i played it on all difficulties within 70 hours.. for me skyrim was the game with the best price/reward factor EVER! i spent almost 1000 hours in skyrim as i said and there is still things i never heard of and quests i never did, items i never found and so on.. i'm really grateful for all the great time i had with this game and all the people who worked so hard to make this awesome game even better..
have a nice week all of you! :)

That will not kill your mods. That is an option on purpose for situations like this (maybe faster download speeds). Also when first go on nmm log in window pop ups click stay offline(click stay offline line next to login) (For the problem). If you have problems try purge downloads which might fix it.

The Nexus, and NMM have been wonky from the moment the Special edition was released.

The new version of NMM for SE works only intermittedly.

 

Sometimes it starts downloading, but spits-out download error after download error. Basically exactly what I expected. The traffic must be overwhelming.

I guess NMM does not like it when during a download, the transfer-speed plummets.

 

I am already surprised enough that the Nexus itself stays up, despite being slow as a snail, it just keeps chugging-on.

 

It's a tad inconvenient, true, but me thinks it will stabilize in a few days.

 

Only thing I find worrying, is that the last NMM-version, apparently, has a hard time importing mods from local disk, and that it mucks around with the security-settings on its own mod-folder. I had to -basically- elevate the standard "user" account to full local-admin to make NMM even save the unpacked mods. Odd..

 

Well. We'll see in a couple of days how it goes. For now it's back to manually import mods folder by folder. Like the old days.. :laugh:

Is anyone else having issues with notifications from files they are tracking not showing when they are updated? I'm assuming the server being overwhelmed is the issue?


"kestrelhawk
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.

Yes they have. "
