What PC Gamer wants from Fallout 4 + a bit of speculation
As Bethesda Game Studios finishes up with Skyrim and moves onto the production of its next shiny thing, PC Gamer has a wishlist of things that they want Bethesda to do better for Fallout 4 (as compared with Fallout 3).
There’s some scuttlebutt regarding a new Fallout floating around the internet: the radioactive smoke is curling up from the burning, irradiated embers. Bethesda have been registering names, and the in-game DJ’s voice actor has promised more from him. Could it be? ...- 259 Comments

More commenting options for mod authors
An extremely underused feature on the Nexus file pages is the “Discussions” tab, which allows authors and users (provided the author allows it) to create different threads for different parts of conversation to do with the file. When you have a large mod that gets hundreds of new messages a day it can often be difficult to keep up with what’s going on within your single comment topic. Bug reports, feedback, suggestions, troubleshooting and general chit-chat get all mixed up in a big soup o...

Recent site updates and NMM 0.44.3 released
We’ve been knocking out tiny updates and tweaks to the site since we changed the design around a bit a week or so ago. These updates tend to be small enough to not warrant a news post, but when they build up enough I like to smash them all out in a news post in one big list. But before we do that let's get NMM out of the way.
We released NMM 0.44.3 last Friday that contains some more bug fixes and some minor feature changes. Here’s the list:

New Vegas got Mormonism right says Mormon gamer
Fifth-generation Mormon, Skip Cameron, has an article on Kotaku talking about how Fallout New Vegas portrays his faith.
He notes that it was "sympathetic and respectful" instead of the "unflattering and even disrespectful" approach that is seen in other media. He also shows how deep some of the research that Obsidian took was, and provides some interesting information on Mormon NPCs.
While the name Nephi will not likely carry any significance to anyone outside Utah or t...- 52 Comments

Skyrim Crash on Startup FIX : Part 1 (Troubleshooting your Load Order)
cPwiY7NBVTM
One of the most common requests for help I get are those from people who have crashes when they start Skyrim. This is usually caused by a missing master in your load order, so in this video I show you how to find out if that is the case, and which file is the problem.

Site design update, file backgrounds and hot file cropping
If you’re reading this from a Nexus site then you’re reading it from our updated design. Before I go into explaining a few of the changes just a quick note that we’ve changed our imagemap, so if some images look out of place or things look like they’re in the wrong place you might want to refresh your browser cache for the site. Easiest way to do this is to press CTRL+F5 (a hard refresh). If that doesn’t fix it then try again. And again. If it’s still broken after that it’s either ...

NMM version 0.44 released, new file servers and site updates
We’ve snuck the latest version of the Nexus Mod Manager out the door late this evening pushing us into version 0.44. This latest version contains a number of bug fixes along with a new ReadMe management feature and the new improved controls for the “old view” NMM mode, the same that the category view uses.
The ReadMe manager parses all your mods for text, rtf, doc and HTML documents and provides them as a list for you to open straight from NMM by right-clicking a mod and highl...- 318 Comments

Recent updates: nested commenting, sticky posts, latest versions, drag n dropping and bug fixes
Things have been flying by a bit recently and we’ve been boshing out so many small fixes, tweaks and features left right and centre I’m almost struggling to keep up. So here’s a run-down of some of the recent changes we’ve implemented on the sites and in NMM.

Forum upgrade complete, still some work to do
It’s been a long day but 8 hours after taking the forums offline we’ve now put them back online with the necessary updates in place. There’s still quite a bit of work to do, tweaks and performance enhancements to make, but the majority of the functionality should now be in place and we’ve re-enabled mod publishing and commenting on the sites.
We’ve all got to get used to the changes that have been made by this latest version and we’re still trying to find our way around ...- 97 Comments
