Hey there everybody! I hope you all enjoyed your July, now it's August, last month of summer. Oh boy I'm going to hate Senior year sigh...


Anyways July has been a quiet month, as it's naturally what people like to call "The Summer Lull", and then you have *groans in misery* filthy Pokemon Go that stole all your friends and of course you don't play Pokemon so you're even more lonely than usual *ahem* so not many mods were uploaded, I counted about 54 and 1/4 of those are the new DMRA body replacer mod series that the author didn't feel like releasing them all in one package but instead flood the latest files, and then there's a lot of bug fixes and edits of other mods. So this catalog will be pretty straight forward.


Ah "But EK, what's with the picture?" That is the current statistic status of the legendary quest mod "Vivec Fate" by Brother Juniper ported to the Nexus by Rogue_Shadow. Why is it there? Well according to both the nexus and PES, that mod will be turning TEN YEARS OLD on the 8th, and on PES it got some feedback and was rated a 9.94/10 and entered PES's Hall of Fame, while little to none on the Nexus port (naturally, Nexus was mostly used for Oblivion back then) Now both Brother Juniper and Rogue_Shadow are no longer active, doing who knows what. In ten years on the Nexus port, after the death of PES, Vivec Fate has achieved about 6,000 total downloads, BUT only 16 endorsemants and 3 posts. 16 ENDORsemanTS AND 3 POSTS. It is understandable that a good portion of those downloads are people redownloading it after PES but the mod has met new audiences since it's port, there is no excuse for the low amount of feedback on the mod, even if it's a port. My first mod in comparison has only been out for two months and it has 11 endorsemants, 11/16 = 68.75% and his is way better than mine (at least I think so). So for its ten year anniversary, if you haven't tried the mod yet or if you have but you didn't give feedback on it, just do it and vote it for mod of the month. I'm serious. You can find it http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/6060/?. I dedicate this month's catalog to the mod.



You can find the PES web archive of the mod https://web.archive.org/web/20131222201437/http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?id=4590&view=Mods.Detail, ty Melchior for providing this information


Also, thanks and round of applause for Digmen, Danae, and Jason073 for being great help with new modders this month and keeping this list short. I salute you.


Alright, on with the actual catalog.


I did not include mods that were bug fixes or edits of other mods, mods that were super simple and self-explanatory and therefore not deserving of feedback, cheat mods, or of course mods that can no longer be found. They are sorted by genre, and * = first time modder/first mod.

Congrats! Keep up the hard work of reviewing them mods! Once I get a break from just doing modding, I'll see what I can do to help :3

Just a quick historical note:

Vivec's Fate is actually by Brother Juniper and did receive a decent amount of feedback and admirable ratings https://web.archive.org/web/20131222201437/http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?id=4590&view=Mods.Detail. Rogue_Shadow is best known for http://web.archive.org/web/20130622121937/http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=2413 which was an immensely popular mod and definitely, deservedly got their recognition (hall of fame, 25k+ downloads, etc). Rogue must have just uploaded it here to Nexus to help a Brother out.

-MD



edit: I should also note that Brother Juniper made one of my favorite quest mods (which was also in the Hall of Fame): http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=54! Which did even better than Rogue_Shadow's mod. They're certainly not forgotten modders. :)

Ah ok that makes sense (like I said I can't verify anything with PES, I should PM someone next time), but the lack of feedback on that mod on the Nexus is still pretty crazy. And I could never play Twin Lamps cause it always crashed my game/simply didn't work. :( Thanks Melchior for clearing up the confusion, I'll edit the correct information in.

No problem. I don't always trust uploader names on Nexus. A lot of "reposts" are there and so uploader quite often does not equate to author.



And then there are people like me who have different names on Nexus to confuse things even more. ;)
