AugustaCalidia Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 My guess is that EmporerFrost was trying to use a premium server to download and mistook the premium server warning for a demand for payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark0ne Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Apparently, this is an issue in old version of Vortex which is fixed by updating to the latest version. I think it's more likely there was a bug with the API and he was downloading normally, but the API for some reason was trying to make it download from a Premium server, which resulted in an error. There should be no way for a non-Premium user to be exposed to Premium-only links, so there's only really two explanations for the error: There is a bug either on the site, in the API or in Vortex EmporerFrost followed a download link somewhere else on the internet (not the Nexus Mods site) that only works for Premium users Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannin42 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 There are a few explanations for this:a) outdated version of Vortexb) EmporerFrost got the download links from a foreign site hosting unauthorized direct links to Nexus Modsc) EmporerFrost used different accounts, not only in this thread but also between Nexus Mods and Vortex. Free download links are tied to the account that started them, so if the account EmporerFrost starts a download on the page, it has to be EmporerFrost logged into Vortex to complete the download.
