  • Unique download stats fix with NMM downloads

    We came across a bug today that meant when users downloaded files through NMM the download was not being counted as a “Unique download” but it did add to the “Total downloads” counter. For those who don’t know, unique downloads are counted once per user, per file, per page. So if you download the same file 10 times it adds 10 to the total downloads counter but only 1 to the unique downloads counter. It’s a more accurate way of seeing the true number of unique individuals who have dow...

  • Witcher 2 \"Redkit\" SDK released for modders, NMM support inbound

    CDProjektRed committed to releasing a powerful toolkit for The Witcher 2 some time ago and it’s been in a closed beta for many months now, but today the lid is off and [url=the kit is out there for everyone to use.

    It’s really exciting for a great game like The Witcher 2 and it’s modding community to be strongly supported by the developers, and it’s a great breath of fresh air for a triple A game developer to care so much about it, and it bodes really well for The Witcher 3....

    Tyrannicon is still making great Skyrim based movies, this time telling the Ironman story using his video making skills and a whole lot of great mods. But which mods did he use whilst making this video I hear you ask? Here is the complete list:

  • New Premium servers and more payment methods including paying by SMS/text message

    As you’re probably aware from the advertisements we’ve dotted around the sites and in NMM we offer a Premium Membership service to users who would like to support the sites and get a little something back in return. I regularly get asked if we have a donation button on the sites. I regularly respond that we don’t take donations at the moment because we consider Premium Membership to be the perfect donation as it allows you to get something back for your financial support; so if you do want...

  • NMM UI redesign mock ups for your consideration

    I thought I’d share with you some preliminary, non-final mock-ups that we’ve been working on with some professional web/graphic/software/UI designers over the past few weeks for the Nexus Mod Manager in the hopes of not only preparing you for the shock of the change but also to get some feedback.

    As I’ve said all the way through the life-span of NMM how NMM looks is most definitely not final. Before I will stick that coveted 1.0 version number on to the software that indicates...

  • Interview with Edge magazine

    Back in January when I blogged about money and running these sites a lot of people expressed an interest in what I’d written and surprise at how I ran things and how I think. This in turn surprised me; I didn’t think many people would be very interested, it’s only me. Similarly a few online publications got in contact to set up interviews with me on the topic, something I’m more than happy to oblige with. While I only ended up doing one interview as the interest seemed to die down the re...

  • Download history functionality on file comments for mod authors

    We’ve updated the sites today with what will probably be the last new feature we add to the sites for a little while as we focus fully on expanding the Nexus sites to support all PC games which I mentioned in my recent blog piece.

    Today’s update has added a new link titled “Download history” to file comments which is displayed next to the post date information for mod authors on their own file page comment areas. When the author of the file clicks this link they’ll be able...

  • Site updates and fixes

    Following on from last weeks update to the way file search and category results are displayed we’ve patched in a few fixes and added a few more features based on user feedback. Perhaps most important, and worthy of being outside of the bulleted list below is the fact we’ve coded in some rudimentary browser back button functionality to the AJAX on the site.

    The problem is thus; most browsers’ page history and back log are dictated by page reloads. Each time you visit or reload ...

  • Dovahtracker Alpha

    Dovahtracker is a modification by Tytanis for Skyrim that enables you to track and share your characters in real-time. Every single detail about your character is tracked, from items to stats and everything in between. It can even track your mods, making it extremely easy to share your mod list with people without having to do anything at all.

    The framework is portable enough to work with every Bethesda title. Expect trackers for Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas...

  • Category and search results page update

    Today we’ve rolled out an update to the category and search results page on all the Nexus sites and I’m quite excited about it. I think it’s really good, ergo if you don’t like it I’m going to be upset. So like it. Or else.

    The general premise for this update was to have a single page from which you could find all the content people have added to the site quickly, easily, and seamlessly without the need for excessive page reloads or jumping between category selections, sea...

  • The Witcher 3 PC Gamer preview

    PC Gamer has a long preview showing off the open world that CDPRojectRed is developing for the Witcher 3.

    The article talks a bit about combat and story mechanics, but the focus is upon the setting and how the open world exploration and questing works.

    The beast moves away, clueless to the Witcher’s presence. The origin and purpose of the galleon go unexplained, although Badowski confirms that there is a story there to uncover. The ship is one of many “points of int...
