Rate-Limit Exceeded ?

[PockyPunk1]

Hi !

I'm re-installing Skyrim LE altogether after buying a new pc, but I've been time gated by Vortex.
See the attached screenie :(

I still can download mods manually, but fomod-based mods are a real pain to deal with.
Is there a way to remove this "cap" ?

Regards,
Pocky

Thanks for the link !

I like how we're all, Vortex users, supposed to know there's a download request limit out of our bums.
I was considering paying to get my download rate uncapped but there's no way I'm doing this when you timegate users out of the blue.

Classic Nexus I guess.

I have never gotten that "Rate Limit Exceeded"

Not everything is a conspiracy, but I enjoyed the "I was JUST going to become a paying member, but not now" story

 

People use that one a lot, it's a popular one.

 

FOMOD based mods aren't any harder to deal with, if you download them Manually INTO YOUR VORTEX DOWNLOAD FOLDER, where Vortex will automatically detect them, and treat them as if Vortex itself downloaded them.

The article linked by Augusta explains what the rate limits are and why they are there.

 

I've just finished installing ~600 Skyrim mods and I hit the rate limit doing that. I just downloaded manually and imported into Vortex until my requests refreshed.

 

If you don't believe you were heavily using the API within 24 hours of the message, make sure you're up to date with Vortex. Some really, really old versions use more API requests than newer ones.
