NMM2 - Update and recruitment

[KeltecRFB]

Any chance the mod community will soon see what Tannin and Team have been working on? At least beta test the product?

 

Thank you!

So when should I expect NMM2 to more or less reach the level of the current MO? Like, in super vague terms. I know asking for an ETA this early is kinda ridiculous, all I want to know is if it's gonna take years. I want to revisit skyrim and check out all the new mods and such, but it doesn't really matter WHEN I do it, so I'd rather wait if possible.

I think I heard they said some were in 2017. And I assume it's a early beta, not sure if open or closed tho.

To Whom it may concern: I am officially applying to the position of BETA TESTER. I will be more than happy to suffer lost files, compromised save files and the obvious other possibilities when putting together new software like a Mod manager/organizer. PUT ME IN COACH! Gimee, gimee, gimee...(cough) please pass the manager this way. I am very professional and deserving, Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

At 67 yrs old, I'm finding this mod stuff very interesting. To put it into perspective, when I was maybe 8 yrs old my parents bought me what at the time was a very advanced, new piece of technology. It was called a transistor radio and was about the size of a pack of cigarettes. The darn thing never did work very good, but it was new technology man, times were changing. I ended up being a carpenter for work, but kept looking for new things to be developed. My son and daughter were born at the right time, by the late 80's and early 90's they kind of got to grow up with early computers. It wasn't until 2005 or so that my second wife and I bought a computer. The dates may be screwed up, but Win 98SE was my first OS. I learned how to make most every mistake in the book, and through lots of errors, finally correct most of them. In early 2010 my second wife died, I was lost but a friend introduced me to TigerDirect and I discovered computer kits. In need of something to occupy my mind I bought a cheap kit and spent a month figuring out what the parts do. More mistakes made, more mistakes solved. Then I discovered Darksiders 2 and was hooked on open world. I don't like C.O.D. just killing things and people was and is much too boring. A friend told me about Fallout, I started doing research and found my first rig very inadequate for a new release coming out in late 2015 called Fallout 4. By this time I was on Amazon and others like Newegg. I did research and bought new parts, and by release day I had something that could maintain 60 FPS pretty consistently. With close to 1100 hrs. into the game and 4 complete playthroughs, I was getting bored again. Another friend said have you ever thought of game modifications? Hot damn off to the races. I looked at Bethesda and what they had, then stumbled onto The Nexus. With virtually no experience and zero talent for coding, I started studying your Nexus Mod Manager, at first it was as intimidating as hell, but by reading posts night after night I got confident enough to download the thing. I liked the parts used to build more than the limited stuff FO4 could do. I have lots of trouble sometimes understanding how load orders work, but between NMM, LOOT, and Wrye Bash, I'm finally finding out how to make Mods play nice together. It's a work in progress, but none of this newest stuff would be possible, without the to me, incomprehensible hard work you guys do. I became a paid member because it's one of the few things I can do monetarily to help support the fantastic work you guys are doing. Once I get a stable setup I'll be using more of the endorse button. This is way longer than intended, but I want to close letting you know I eagerly look forward to this new Manager you guys are developing. I also just remembered why I started this post in the first place, this is a bit dorky but my suggestion for a name for this new manager is, Evolve Mod Organizer or EMO for short. All of you guys work, from the interface, to the mods themselves, means that these games are Evolving, becoming more than they were. please keep up the great work. Out.

Excellent post.

 

Old folks in the house! You've got me by 15 years, but still.

[DFiNo]

Yes, definitely some old folks in the house...73 here and I bet there are some older than me.

[FilthyCasual523]

As long as it has the virtual folders and profile system from Mod Organizer, I'm all for this!

[argentrolf]

two things here...

first, i know there is/was an opening for an interface guy. but what about a graphic designer/artist? i can send a BOW to demonstrate my abilities if need be (even though i know theres much better artists than me on here :laugh: )

second, the name? why not "Chugen" (scifi reference, many applause if you actually know it...)? it means "in-between" in japanese and to me it seems fitting for what the new nmm is meant to be. or alternatively, "Locus" (a central or main place where something happens or is found).

Locus was suggested already.

 

Use the Contact Us form at the bottom of the page to talk to Dark0ne about job stuff. You'll get a response but i doubt they are lookin for an artist... But hey break a hand anyways.
