THIS MOD IS FINISHED AND WILL NO LONGER BE SUPPORTED
As some of you know I gave a grace period before removing my mod prior to the introduction of Collections. I thought people would be more understanding and supportive of this choice, however since that wasn't the case rather than removing it I just lost all energy to even care anymore. Logging in to my Nexus account just gave me anxiety and for my own well being I just ignored it all. So for the sake of closure this is me completely retiring from the modding community, who knows maybe I'll return if Starfield seems promising and if Nexus decides to give the option to opt out of collections.
Thank you to all of you who have supported my work, provided me with feedback and even helped me with solving issues. There's a lot of love in this community.
If you wish to make adjustments to the mod or make addons/translations feel free to do so without having my permission.
It's sad to read this. Your mod is fantastic and I want to say thank you. I do understand your decision. Still, I hope you can find your peace with Nexus at some point and walk away with the knowledge that you gave something great to people to enjoy. Don't let it take your creativity down. I wish you the best.,
Sorry for the dickheads! Your work is great and a lot of us are actually grateful for the work you fantastic modders put in. Cheers and hope to see you back at it for Starfield with hopefully fewer dicks present lol
How can people be so... abusive to something that is so beautifully detailed.. down to even the lighting... this is a beautiful version of DC that should have been how it was all along.. it is a shame that this talent was treated to some imaginary standard and not appreciated for everything it is... its art.. and if you ever return i for one will support and enjoy all the care you give ... and you give it for free... you sir have my respect
This mod is an incredible work of art. I've only just begun to explore it, Statsmakten (David), but you MUST know how much damned better it makes Diamond City. Yes, I'm sure I'll encounter bugs and I've worked through some already with load order tweaking, but if this were all it were, nothing more than just some new NPCs running around and the added locations and detail, it would be an order of magnitude more than enough!
I want so badly to meet your character at the Red Seat and just chat, to enjoy the little world within a world you built! I wish I could say more, but I can't...its just a gem. Maybe someday we'll get a co-op mod, because I am absolutely having this in my world. It's the best!
Thank you for not going that route. I can't stand authors deleting their mods in protest. It's a waste and doesn't make sense in the bigger picture. They uploaded these mods here for people to enjoy for free. Intellectual property is pretty irrelevant when you don't stand to gain anything from it. Is what Nexus did right? No, but retaliating by deleting your mod only hurts the people you uploaded it for. Doesn't hurt Nexus at all. Is the ability to delete your mod worth punishing the people you made it for? Especially knowing that doing so won't accomplish anything anyway? I don't think so personally. And I hope someday if you ever produce anything again you might come around but even if you don't just know you made this game a hell of a lot better for a hell of a lot of people and all of us appreciate everything you put into this. Don't ever question whether it was worth it. You accomplished what you set out to do here when you started. And you should feel damn good about it.
Why would collections make you wanna remove the mod? You gotta understand that people are gonna be upset when you remove a mod they use, so I'm confused about what exactly happened here.
@RIDI Two reasons: 1: Collection uses old version with a bug, update might break collection but no update breaks mods side. Who gets the critque, potentially both and so statsmakten might be given bug reports based on the collections faults 2: The mod file used in collections is forced to be on nexus servers forever, meaning if you want to delete an old version for any reason (Voice actor/texture/model/persons work is desired to be removed by the person who made the asset) cant have it removed. Put your voice in a mod, Nexus will force it out there. Even if its your mod and your voice, you dont get the option of removing it from the web.
The best about collections is to even use them correctly you need to be a premium user, otherwise you'll be forced to download all of the mods manually
Thank you for all your hard work and above all else thank you for sharing your work with all of us. It is true that for every positive post like this there are a hundred more people who feel the same and they are called the silent majority. It just astounds me that so many sites like the nexus never take into account the power of the silent majority who say little and just walk off into the sunset without saying a word. I would have to say those people have never stepped a foot into a political science class.They just scratch their heads and wonder what happened when they fail. Anyways never feel underappreciated for what you have done on the nexus.
"this is me completely retiring from the modding community"
I know I'm late to the "me too" party, but damn it, David... this actually makes me sad. Don't let dumb Collections drive you back from something you love doing, and let us say it for you; you're damn good at.
Just because they bundle your stuff in Collections and force a copy to stay as their content, I mean come on hosting mods is their business, what do you expect, that they let all mod creators have the power to ruin their business? That one disgruntled jerk could start a organized social campaign to ruin their business model by causing an exodus, over nothing, just because, or wanting to be a competitor??
It's one thing if you worry no one will see you efforts for being yours, that part is understandable, but I know you're completely capable of breaking the 4th wall, having an interactive sign in the game, maybe even a silly side-mission plot point, to come visit your page or site directly. I know if youput more than a few seconds into thinking about it you'd have 3 ways to mitigate the frustration the nexus Collections thing caused you. Cuz yer a smart feller, ain' ya?
This one mod captures the mood, vibe, the actual intent of the way the crew at Bethesda would have made it, had they endless time. It's not flawless, I mean what add-on is, but in the way of other mod creators we love not just for the mod but their minds, they way they approach things, SKK, Thuggy, etc. With yours, it's so apparent - it's meticulous! details details details. We can all feel the love of the game, the love of making these things, of all the days invested where you got done with your "regular life" and couldn't wait to get some downtime to resume working on your projects... it's tangible!
I hope you find a way to make a living at this, dude. I really do.I don't even know you and am rooting for you. When you're applying to Microsoft Game Studios for that high six-figure salary gig as a level designer, make sure this is in your portfolio.
ill never understand the hate for collections, it makes modding easier and more approachable for new comers and that's a problem? yall sound like babys tbh
Very true, all the arguments that I have seen can get boiled down to is that can be solved by taking this approach : "If it happens to break someone else's work because they use a version that I told them was broken, not my issue."
I've managed to remove the ambience music from the Red Seat (too annoying for my taste), but now all that remains is that freaking Nuka World music breaking my inmmersion. How am I supposed to lay down with the girls while that kids music is playing in the background?! Any idea how to remove it as well? I guess something in the mod esp needs to be touched using FO4Edit
One of my favorite mods and still sad we won't get future updates for it, but very thankful to the author for creating it. Seeing so many people with bugs and problems, but that's normal for bigger mods. I run this mod with a hundred of others, many scripted ones, and never got a problem. Rule of thumb:
• Check requirements • Use a mod manager (I use MO2) • Check for conflicts (don't use more than one mod that alters the same place, especially scripts) • Run LOOT (yes, unless you're a pro at knowing mod priority) • If you got a problem, run isolated tests (vanilla + only this mod and so on until you find the culprit)
i have tried looking several places but cant get this mod to work with looks menu or LMCC for the life of me. I also am sorry but do not feel like looking through more than 100-200 posts out of the 3000+. If i try to move this mod towards the very bottom next to looksmenu, it disables looksmenu. When i try to enable or redownload looksmenu again, this mod gets reloaded back somewhere in the middle or top of my load order thus making my game crash upon loading in diamond city. I never touch loot throughout anything, im at a loss on how this mod keeps reloading itself back. Sometimes if i try to reinstall all of them a bunch of times i'll get lucky after hours of trying. this last time I had closed my game after it was working perfectly fine, and went to play again and it crashes on me since it loaded itself back towards the top again. I'm kinda new to modding and have much to learn, but if anyone has any suggestions please help me lol. I love this mod since it looks beautiful but just can't get myself to spend almost all the time i have off work just fighting with this mod to work with looksmenu instead of playing the game. No other diamond city mod compares unfortunately, but i am having to use something else in the meantime until either i figure out a solution or decide to spend hours messing with this again.
In Vortex go to Plugins and double ckick on the mod. A new vindow will open up on the right side. Under group select Dynamic pathes. Then press the orange button at the bottom.
or even better, use it on MO2, everything is simple there and you won’t need to dance with a tambourine. I've been playing with this mod for 2 years now, almost no problems.
For anyone who got STD from sleeping with the hookers. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21853/?tab=forum&topic_id=10237163
I has master locksmith and i just lockpicked his door. 1 of the 3 different types of box of pills should cure you. If you get intoxicated just wait it off. Happy sleeping with the hookers my friends of kulture :P.
1. Leave Diamond City and save your game 2. Uninstall the mod and anymod that might conflict 3. Load previous save 4. Create a newsave and exit the game 5. Re-install the mod 6. Load the latestsave.
And this „[Vortex Bugfix] Precombines Conflict and Visual Errors/Flickering“ from the forum-tab.
And that: "In Vortex go to Plugins and double ckick on the mod. A new vindow will open up on the right side. Under group select Dynamic pathes. Then press the orange button at the bottom."
But: The mod just doesn't change anything in my game. Nothing. Any ideas? Thank you :)
For sure man :) I just got to Diamond City on a new playthrough and I'm getting pretty bad flickering and disappearing containers, benches etc.. everywhere, I don't suppose you know why this is happening and how to fix it?

Two reasons:

can anyone here even give me one positive about them?

So much for quitting modding, eh?
TBF, he did foreshadow that... again, I don't know David, but am glad for it, it depresses me when corporate bureaucracy crushes the creative spirit.
