NMM2 - Update and recruitment

[soulgamers]

Hi again

:armscrossed:

OK I've got it! " The New NMM. "

Why change the name of something that's brill and well known. and well recognized throughout the mod using community worldwide. changing the name will confuse and bewilder. :unsure:

Like my dyslexic spelling when I apply for a new job. :facepalm:

Got a few questions regarding scripted mod installers with the new mod manager:

 

1) Will it support both FOMOD and BAIN Installer Wizards?

2) Will any other installation options be added, for example Javascript based installers?

3) A big limitation with the frequently used XML based FOMOD installers is the inability (to my knowledge) to detect if you're installing to Oldrim or SSE and only being able to link to either your Oldrim or SSE page, making it a bit of a hassle to make user-friendly combined installers. Any chance this will be improved?

Current Nexus logo can already be appropriated for this name, it resembles a swirling vortex.

Of all the suggestions I've seen, I personally like Vortex the most by far. It sounds cool, is quick to say, quick to type, and isn't a boring acronym.

I hope you guys can get a UI designer soon, I have been absolutly fiending for this mod manager to release. I was an avid mod organizer user but decided for SSE I would just wait for the new fully supported mod manager. Seems Like its still a couple of months off but its good to know progress has been great! Thank You!

I plan to switch to NMM2 if it's decent but this is a nice, non-invasive way to keep your mods separate and organized in the mean time. (Disclaimer: intended for advanced users, most people probably won't like it.)

Thanks for the suggestion Opus I'll look into it, Love your mods btw! :)

Why new name? NMM v2 is fine.

Thanks for the update! The project sounds really cool and I hope you get the expert you seek! (It won't be me - but I can put the kettle on...)

You could call it something like, Nexus Organizer? lol

[silencer711]

How about [Nexus One Manager] or "NOM". Since this will be the HUB of all of one's mod library, it is both professional and theoretically if the plans for the NEW Mod Manager delves into the Revolutionary/Versatile category; Most advanced, all-inclusive mod manager ever created. I see "One" to manage them, and "One" to rule them all. :)

I actually like Vortex a lot. It's a new name altogether and long name could be NVM (Nexus Vortex Manager) or something. I like VORTEX better than my own suggestion lol :)
