The Nexus download site has been set to "Hidden" for several days, and I'm beginning to worry a bit...

Speaking of Elseweyr, anyone tried http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=27302?
It looks like a big mod that helps flesh out the province with lots of locations and quests, but I haven't seen it mentioned om these forums yet.

Elsweyr is still available, but not on Nexus right now, only http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1108757-tamriel-worldspace-modding-project/page__view__findpost__p__16376241.

Thanks for the tip, Petrus.

I wonder why is set to hidden in Nexus...and if it's still being developed..

Also, I'll give a try to "Tales of...".

From what I can gather the author decided not to host it on nexus anymore, why I am not sure prolly somthing about people being jerks.

I dunno...wouldn't it be easier to just block comments instead?

That, and how exactly were they "jerks"? I cannot imagine how or why they'd criticise this mod...(although 13 year-old kids with the same mentality and education as a particularly smart penguin doesn't surprise me anymore...).

One thing I've noticed is that the Nexus moderators don't have the same degree of professionalism that the ones here do. I won't say any more about it than that, but I disapprove so strongly, I wouldn't have posted my mod there at all except that the mod it's based on was hosted there.

hmmm...
I am absolutely worried...not that it is a problem for me to dl the files somewhere else, but in my case Ilianas Elsweyr mod will be a requirement for the Tamriel heightmap mods ( at least for theValenwood/Elsweyr part)...it was down on nexus most of the time during the last months and I am really not sure if it will stay avaible on the existing mirror(s) forever....

Don't worry I remember lliana saying that when elsweyr appears on the top mod of the whatever list she takes it down so the idiots that flame her will not notice the mod.

Same thing happened to Alienslof and all of her amazing work

Such a pity that people feel the need to criticize something so brilliant

you have missed quite a bit i expect. I have a warning from saying the exact opposite thing that I was warned for. there is a thread about it on silgrad where we all laughed about it.

there is a long list of mod bloopers here too

Leave the moderators here alone,I remember on the escapist I got a post ban(for 7 days or 9)for mentioning stuff about american rights when all I did was show the star trek face palm picture.

I've tried it, but I wasn't impressed. It also took me three days to disable it - I eventually had to rename my ini file, let the game generate a new one, and delete a bunch of extraneous entries that were added by something (not sure what) before I could play without it enabled. :banghead:

I do, however, recommend http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29808 if you're into house mods. It's a nice place, and has a short quest to acquire it.

Played it a while ago (even made a OOO version);
it lacks some professionalism at setting enemies and Bosses; the main Obsidian Armor and Weapons are just overpowered and retextured Glass armors and Glass Weapons.
trolf made way better than this in his Armamentarium and Artifacts mod.

We're not pro

Well... I have had nothing but good experiences with the mods on nexus, I get alot of flak and flames for my mods and its nice how quickly things are dealt with.


Plus just turning comments off means nothing, they can simply pm you. Haha I would get alot of those, its fun getting threats for mods. XP

??????

Now this kind of chaps my backside.
I have had nothing but good experiences with the mods at the Nexus.
In fact I consider at least 3 of them (some prominent, and well known members here as well) that I have had personal contact with my good friends within this community.
All of my released works are posted at TESNexus, and have been all the way back to 2007.

Keep up the good work DarkOne.
Our modding community wouldn't be the same without the service you provide, and your hard work.

I am sorry that you have had any bad experiences there but I FIRMLY believe a simple PM to the mods will resolve any issue you might have in a fair manner.

Very true. What a loss.

I'd be sorry to see this mod taken off TESNexus. I have my issues with the site and some of the endorsemant restrictions (I can't endorse a mod if I inadvertently download it without being signed in to the site), but these are minor annoyances. I readily acknowledge that the site provides a service to the greater TES community and therefore should be supported towards that goal. I don't know where we'd be without the site, to tell the truth.

I know that, some time ago, TESNexus went through an extensive overhaul of the mod ranking system. I only offer this as an indication that those who oversee the site are trying to be fair. Very few people in the entire TES community have the privilege of being paid professionals.

I think she has retired from modding, but I'm not entirely sure about that. This information is on http://emmates.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=oblivion&action=display&thread=209.

as a lot mods / projects are made dependent on ElsweyrAnequina I think it would be fair to get a clear statement what Ilianas plans are for this mod...it is not very funny to have this mod as a requirement for my own work but not having it uploaded and supported properly....I know it is avaible on Megaupload but I really can not ask people, who want to use my mods, to dl and install a mod as a requirement which is not supported anymore...
in this case the last version has a few bugs which really need to be fixed ( Dune gate, flying lod tower)...


cheers

onra

I'm pretty sure she has stated she is no longer supporting the mod.

Good point onra.

In that case, maybe onra and his team could ask for permission to take over full support of ElsweyrAnequina - if they want to. ElsweyrAnequina really, really deserves further refining and development, and it would be a shame if it gets lots.
