iNSPiREDS Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 The current way of mods listing on the Nexus is okay, I guess.However, I find it quite difficult to find an interesting mod that's not already extremely popular.Sure, if you just search for the exact name of the mod, you'll find it. But what if you're searching for something "new"? What if you just go on Nexus site thinking "okay, surprise me".In my personal experience, it's pretty difficult. I know usually changes like these might be difficult to implement (or not), but either way I believe the following suggestions would make the whole experience much better: 1) Add image thumbnails to search results.Wouldn't that make everything so much easier for everyone? You have a bunch of random mods listed that you've never seen before. Mod name and short description sure is helpful, but wouldn't pictures/videos thumbnails prove much more effective for the mods' presentations? 2) Make Advanced Search (more) visibleOnly now that I was making this post I was able to find this. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/advancedsearch/To access it, one needs to do some regular search and then click on Search again on the top right corner of the search results.This is a great feature that can prove much more effective to present the user with relevant content. 3) Add Active/Inactive Development filterWould be great if mods could set such an attribute for their own mods, to let users know when they're not supporting the current mod anymore.Allowing users to edit such an attribute pending the author's permission would be just as welcome.Some mods are great, or were great when they were active, but are just outdated and most likely incompatible with latest Skyrim version, or even DLCs. These are just a few ideas I believe would make a tremendous positive impact on everyone's experience on Nexus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
