skrollort Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 How do you upload an update to your mod?It seems you can't replace the previous version with a new version like you do in the skyrim workshop? How will the users of your mod know there's an update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghosu Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Delete old file and upload/replace new should work. I just upload the new version, in the file options you can mark it as MAIN, OLD or OPTIONAL FILE, i rename the old version and mention it in the description as well - can't miss that. MAIN FILE will be listed first as well, there is a little binocular icon in each mod description if you want to track a mod and get noticed 'bout news. User that track your file will see the update in the tracking centre. See here: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/23903 (file section) greetings Edited September 24, 2012 by ghosu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skrollort Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 The user interface for managing your mods is not very intuitive, especially for updating mods... I tried to delete the original file. It sad I didn't have permission. It seems you're not supposed to replace the previous version , but instead add the updatedversion to the file list, so that the user can choose which version to use? How about if I do it like this: 1. Click on Files 2. Click on ADD FILES 3. choose "Update file" under "Category" Is that the best way to do it?

majistik Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) First of all try to log off and log on to the site again, and if something that suppose to work wont try that again there is sometimes problems in the site. I do updates this way (without update file just a total new version download) 1. click FILES 2. Click ADD FILES3. upload the new version and under VERSION write something like 1.1 or 2.0 so it will be higher the the older one4. make sure its catagory is MAIN FILE and click SUBMIT5. go to FILES again6. find the old version that i dont want people to download7. Press EDIT FILE under it8. Choose catagory OLD VERSION4. click SUBMIT Edited September 24, 2012 by majistik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark0ne Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Follow the steps above, or delete your old version, depending on whether you want people to be able to download your old version or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
