PsychoMachina Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 I'm loathing the new system to download files; pick a prefered location (US or UK) and you will automatically connect with the least busy servers. I tried downloading 2 files, 111mb and 66mb respectively. The 111mb file took about 40 minutes, jumping between 100+kb/s and 20+kb/s. The 66mb file I gave up; the dl speed hovered around 10-20kb/s. I prefered the old way. Some of the better servers were not the least busy.
Stella Fleuret Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Can anyone else download anything right now? As soon as I start a download.. Oops! Google Chrome could not connect
Guest Omega1084 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Can anyone else download anything right now? As soon as I start a download.. Oops! Google Chrome could not connect Happened to me a bunch earlier. Might be a new issue with the Nexus now. There's a new problem ever week/day/hour.

Hayleyrose2323 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 AAAAAAH I can barely download anything, I click download but does the download actually come up? NOPE. I swear they did this purposely so we would have to download there mod manager x.x
Cynical Misanthrope Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 How many of you guys are using add-block. I bet that the new server system puts people who use add-block at the bottom of the list which would explain why some of you guys aren't getting downloads and others connections are working just fine. I'm using Adblock, and have no issues at all.
Stella Fleuret Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Well, disabling my adblocker while I was having problems made the ten things I was downloading work o3o
Cynical Misanthrope Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Maybe Necksus has some kind cap of how many files you can download?
mkprovince Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I don't think that's the problem. Some adblocker disables ALL SCRIPTS. Problem is, some of those scripts are needed to direct towards the download server. You'd be better suited for those that blocks advertisements only by way of proxy or from known ad sites. Ghostery is one good example and also the one I use.
Stella Fleuret Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 So far turning off MY adblocker has fixed my problem twice could just be my adblocker, though.
Guest endgameaddiction Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I'm still trying to understand why they took this route. I rarely ever had a problem picking a server (closest to me) to manually download a mod. It went from consistency to impossible.
Rayblue Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 That fucking limey and his Grand Canyon escapade. I actually liked the old server setup better.
Rogue_Kitsune Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 That fucking limey and his Grand Canyon escapade. I actually liked the old server setup better. Have to say I agree. Mainly because the old system WORKED. This one? I've been trying to download the v1.2.6 hotfix for Mod Organizer off and on all day, and every time, I get nothing but a message claiming there are no servers available. I had the same problem trying to download an update for Relighting Skyrim the day before... and I think there was another mod day before that. It seems like nothing works unless its been on the site for at least a day or two... (actually makes the conspiracy theorist in me wonder if its deliberate; maybe only premium users are allowed to download mods that haven't been hosted for more than 24 hours? I'm not a premium user, so I can't test that; its just wild speculation on my part. Still, though...) Granted, supposedly there's been a major increase in traffic to the site the past couple days, possibly due to the Steam Summer Sale... I would've thought a site that big would be designed to handle a decent bit of traffic, though. Also, I haven't been seeing lag just loading pages, or trying to download old files, both things I would expect if the site were overloaded... no, its just new files that have "no servers available." Oh, and for the sake of being thorough, I tried switching off AdBlock; it still claimed to have no servers available for any of the MO v1.2.6 files, and one of them caused NoScript to throw a warning (probably just something trivial and benign, admittedly, but still).
Rayblue Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 All I know is that Premium accounts usually get first dibs on any files. Whatever, I'll try to come back later and get the MO update.
Kendo 2 Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I talked to a friend and he made an observation. The shittier the Nexus servers are the more people are refreshing pages and looking at other things in open tabs. That means more pop-up views on Dark0ne's financial gerbil wheel. Looking at it that way (combined with even shittier service if you block his adds and scripts) it is actually a stroke of petty money-hungry genius. But he IS a douche and a pimp so of course he's going to skim and scam when and where he can.
Guest Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I don't know about run on a potato, but there's an awful lot of mouldy old spuds making up it's "community". Have you seen all the drama surrounding Edhildils' 7B Azura statue edit? Sure, I tend to agree that Azura as Jugzilla isn't the most worthy of projects, but holy smoke, if some of those poor little lambs came here they'd literally shit their britches.
D_ManXX2 Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 No servers available at this time ??? Damn this is all i get when i try to download now. What the **** is going on ??? The more this happens the more the entire site looks like bad joke.

The snarky comments on all of the recent statue renovations have given me the urge to rant a bit. But I already expended my rant energy for the day elsewhere.
DistrictGlamour Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 The Nexus is free and makes modding extremely easy for new players, meaning the potential pool of users and modders increases substantially, which can only be good for all modding communities, including LL. Give them some goddamn respect, or invite everyone to host their stuff on LL and watch this site's servers die.

I fail to see why the fact that the Nexus is free gives their admins a free pass to treat their users like shit. Personally I hope the end result of them being greedy cunts is that talented modders take their work elsewhere.

Once I had respect for Nexus. until how I saw how they treated modders and their community in general. Robin and most of his lackeys are power-hungry corrupted cunts that deserves all the shit that gets thrown at them. Most modders from Nexus find their way to LL after getting banned for trivial stupid shit anyway. The ones who dares to speak up against the Nexus fascist regime are the ones that deserves the respect. Not the ones who act like cunts and cares only about money.
Guest Omega1084 Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I used to respect nexus....then i took a ban to the knee Perfect.
PsychoMachina Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 Is anyone else experiencing problems with their endorsement reminder? The other day I tried to download an armor, but because I was connected with a crappy server, I had to stop, wait and try again (total of 6 times). Now I get that endorsement reminder with the same armor listed 6x. What do you think would happen if I endorse the same mod all 6x? Not going to risk getting into trouble for their buggy system so I only endorsed the armor once.
