Nexus Mods says people “should put pressure” on payment platforms to “do better” if they are frustrated by their new policy on the ever-controversial issue.

Popular modding site Nexus Mods recently announced an update to its policies on paid mods and, as always with the topic proving to be a source of never-ending controversy, the reaction from players and modders. It was once a bit sophisticated.

So, after analyzing the comments on that update, which saw him explain his stance that “modding should be a pursuit of passion first and foremost”, the modding page group has now shared an update, which in a moment sees which some angry recommends. Off events could look to give more power to platforms that allow and support paid mods to support their feature options.

“Thank you all for your feedback on the policy announcement. We’ve been reading your feedback here on the forums, in our mod author Discord, and in various external communities,” Nexus Mods People Supervisor Pickysaurus wrote in a post. not used. “We can see that some authors, often those currently benefiting from the Verified Creator program, are upset by certain parts of the policy, while a large number of users generally praise the changes.”

They went straight to the atmosphere that “much of the anger over this change” appears to be indistinguishable to parents playing the options that Nexus Mods currently offers its customers, with the community monitor suggesting that they are considered “much more powerful.” and convenient.” than those offered by paid modding platforms.” “We’re flattered by this,” Pickysaurus wrote, “but we also think it’s wise to point out that if you want these features on platforms that support paid modding, you should push those platforms to do it. do better to support your paid mods ecosystem.”

Continuing, the page addressed complaints about the new policy it had announced in the case of patches for paid mods or mods that are based on the importance of paid mods being hosted on it. “We will temper this part of the policy to allow compatibility patches to be published on mod pages alongside free content to allow better interoperability with paid content,” Pickysaurus wrote. “However, we still feel that pages where the main The purpose of the content is to support/interact with paid content, should not be allowed.”

You’ll find information in the coverage reviewed here, but the simple gist seems to be that modders will be able to loan out patches that simply allow their mods to work alongside a paid mod, only if said paid mod is not a non-juiced mod. requirement for the separate mod, and as long as it is simply a non-mandatory document on the separate mod’s web page. Translations of paid mods will not be covered, so they must be hosted on alternative platforms that do allow paid mods.

“It is not lost on us that this change does not solve all the problems you have raised,” Pickysaurus insisted, “as an example, we note that a number of patches/translations do not seem to be made through the new mod creator. In those cases , we recommend that the region author ask the new creator of the separate content to add the region to their mod web page, where possible, or to add their patches to the paid mod The sellers themselves.

“To be clear, we’re not trying to say that you shouldn’t use paid mods,” they concluded. “On the other hand, we would like Nexus Mods to be about independent mods, so that once the modders reach our people, they get a complete income from the user, from start to finish, where everything they will get on the website is separate, and for independent modifications.
