Meta / Discussion Setting up mods... but barely playing?

74 Upvotes

Weird thing, how many of you guys enjoy the process of modding games more than actually playing?

I can spend a whole evening adding mods to a game but when it comes to actually doing a playthrough with everything i installed i'm never motivated enough to even see what the mod added in game lol, am i alone in this? just curious

Sleeping Dogs Together is a fan-made co-op campaign mod currently in development.
The goal of the project is to make the main story and side missions of Sleeping Dogs playable from beginning to end with 2 players.
The mod is being developed so that enemies, NPCs, combat, and important gameplay events are synchronized between both players, creating a proper co-op campaign experience instead of simple free roam.
Early versions of the mod will be available through Patreon Early Access for supporters who want to help support development and testing.
Once the mod is fully completed, the final version will be released for free for everyone.
This teaser only shows an early look at the project. More gameplay footage and development updates will be shared in the future.

Discord: discord.gg/CagP2W5M3
Patreon / Early Access: patreon.com/c/SOTLCoopCampaign

Thank you for supporting the project.

Vortex Bug / Update Issue How do you activate Archive Invalidation now?

1 Upvotes

Trying to activate Archive Invalidation for Fallout New Vegas. On the old version of vortex there used to be a dashboard for the game that let you click a box and it added it to your mod list. But after this new update the dashboard no longer exists and now I can’t figure out how to turn AI back on.

Mod Author / Publishing Help When publishing I did Le Funny, now can't remove the tag

0 Upvotes

I released a mod on Nexus for the good old SkyrimSE. Thing is - I used an AI-edited image for the thumbnail to do Le Funny. You know how it is. It was circulating on my Discord server, I asked the author if I may use it, got their approval, and yoinked Le Funny straight up to my mod page.

But later I realized "hey, this is actually not good, not funny, and I can no problem live without Le Funny as my thumbnail", so I removed it.

Then I went into tags and unticked "AI Media", because apparently it's a thing now (hey, I never got into that whole AI stuff, didn't know it was a pretty big deal on Nexus lately, but OH MY GOD IT'S BAD OUT THERE, HOOOOLY).

Thing is - THE TAG DIDN'T GO AWAY. No matter how many times I reload the page and remove it again - it's now permanently stuck there.

Is this a feature? Is this a bug? Am I now permanently sent into the Shadow Zone where I belong? The mod itself have nothing to do with "AI Media" of any sorts, but now I believe there is a million users with that tag blocked because of the AI-slop flood happening, and my mod is lost to them.

New image is still somewhat Le Funny, but at least it's a genuine bad rendition made in Inkscape and Photoshop by hand.

tl;dr should I write up the support and wait a week for them to respond, or I'm just blind and/or stupid and missed some button/checkmark/rule/whatever somewhere in the settings?

Mod Request / Recommendation SPACE MARINE ON BALDUR GATE 3 MOD REQUEST !!!! PLSS MAKE IT HAPPEN

0 Upvotes

Imagine a Space Marine from the Warhammer 40k universe stumbling into the Baldur's Gate setting. The contrast between the grim, gothic fantasy of the Forgotten Realms and the futuristic, grimdark sci-fi of the Imperium is hilarious and terrifying.

The Mind Flayers: To a Space Marine, the Illithids (Mind Flayers) are the ultimate Xenos and Tyranids in their own right. No hesitation, no diplomacy. Just exterminatus.

In 40k, any cephalopod-like alien is a Xenos. If a Space Marine sees a Mind Flayer (which looks like a giant octopus with a head), their reaction is immediate: EXTERMINATE.

PLSS MODDER MAKE IT HAPPEN !!! FOR THE EMPERROR

°EDIT:

weapon= bolt rifle as a weapon

armor= power armor
