DankTemplar Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Downloaded mods are freezing when downloading, restarting causes the downloading mod to be FREAKING DELETED from my downloading mods. As in the mod I had told my premium service to Nexus to download is being REMOVED WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. So who do I bill if there are any overages in data this month? This is my somewhat short way to saying "Devs, I know that NMM and Vortex are free tools but when they can't even download mods properly...that's a significant issue that can result in overages due to having to re-download mods several times JUST FOR THEM TO REGISTER PROPERLY". It's bad enough that you essentially forced me into getting premium service by spamming me with messages to slow down my ability to download...but if I pay for a service, it better bloody well work within reason. Now if the mod programs didn't install a mod properly, okay...I can live with that...but screwing up the downloads for a premium user consistently isn't cool. This means I am going to have to re-download another 20ish gb of mods because I cannot trust your crappy mod programs to simply download mods properly...again this is not a problem with installing mods...if they're downloaded correctly, I can at least uninstall and reinstall as needed.

Guest deleted34304850 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 hi,it may have escaped your attention, but there are 40-50 maybe even more posts from people saying the same/similar as you.your issue is NOTHING to do with Vortex. You may want to speak to a mod and have them move your post to a more suitable forum.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmm200 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 You don't need a mod manager to download mods.Download them manually, so you only have your browser and internet provider to blame.Then you can drag the downloaded mods to Vortex.

You have to drag+drop 2-3 mods at any given time just in case that crap mod manager decides to screw up and I'm talking about having to re-download and drag+drop hundreds of mods...hundreds. Again, this isn't a complaint about a mod manager messing up installs. This is something as basic as downloading mods screwing up. That's pretty bare bones...and while this comes across as critical, it's supposed to. I can name hundreds of other programs which don't screw up something as basic as downloading a file. If NMM/Vortex were paid products, I'd be pissed because they're sub-par programs that have trouble doing what cheap, open source torrent clients can do without issue; download a freaking file without crashing and if it does crash, it doesn't bloody remove the entry from your downloading files... Note that this never happened before that "new" update to the site that started spamming everyone with those garbo popups asking for donations and to pick a slow or fast download nor does having premium fix this issue. The download speeds themselves are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deleted34304850 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 you're missing the point - you are complaining about downloading - that has nothing to do with drag/drop.you first need the mod to drag/drop it. after that, whatever processing takes place to install the mod depends on your system.regardless the issue isn't anything to do with vortex or nmm nor a site update nor anything else. it's holiday season, the system has been hitting capacity. that is the issue here. no matter what rubbish you try to conflate to your argument.

The program provided doesn't download mods properly, crashes and then, without permission, deletes the entry that is downloading instead of pausing the entry and resuming when either told to manually or automatically. The site hitting capacity isn't my problem (if it actually is hitting capacity, the speed of download is fine, it's just the mod managers downloading which is screwing up, resulting is a gigantic mess that can result in overages), I paid for a service and in my country, that requires the service to function to a reasonable degree via laws regarding implied warranty. It did not function to a reasonable degree and the workaround is going to cost me 12+ hours in time along with counting towards my data cap. Again, this isn't related to the mod managers screwing up an install process. They're free programs and that functionality isn't related to the site whatsoever so I'm on my own if things break in that regard. But the downloading of mods being screwed up massively is related to the downloading of mods from Nexus by their programs. It's not unreasonable to expect the programs to download files from a premium service properly. That is bare bones functionality. Luckily, this won;t result in overages for me. But if it did, according to the laws in my country, Nexus would be liable for those changes as those charges would be a direct result in something on their end from a premium service not working properly.

EVERYBODY is currently having problems downloading from the Nexus, MANUALLY, and with MO2, MO, Vortex, and NMM and any other Mod Managers out there, while I know you'd love to blame Vortex for everything, your rage against Vortex is unwarranted, and misguided.

I chose my words very carefully, perhaps you need to reread what I stated since I mentioned this is basic functionality in regard to downloading mods and how Vortex is DELETING my paused downloads when the program inevitably crashes or freezes, cheating orphaned files and making it near impossible to track which mods in my history that I've downloaded. Doesn't matter if everyone is having this issue, I paid for a service, I expect it to work. If that can't be reasonably assured, the reason is irrelevant, that's the merchant's problem, not the customer's problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop trying to download an overly large mod while the Nexus Servers are having a problem, and wait until they get fixed.Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop trying to download an overly large mod while the Nexus Servers are having a problem, and wait until they get fixed.Simple as that. How is that a problem with nexus? That's a problem with Vortex...Vortex is DELETING partial downloads without authorization. A website cannot delete files from an app without permissions which have not been granted. A failed download would be a potential fault of the website. A failed download which no longer shows up in Vortex is Vortex's fault. You lack basic understanding of the issue here mate despite my repeated clarifications.Also, I paid for a service, by law the merchant has to provide me a reasonably working service. It is not my problem that Nexus has heavy load or whatever is going on, I don't have to be understanding, I'm a paying customer and as such, I expect what I pay for to work - within reason.
