[[e-mail]]

Well i have installed Skyrim SE AE, on my PS5 Pro now i was wondering mod catagory

all Vanaheimr mods on Bethesda is Environmental, Graphics, Immersion, Visuals then i thought is Bethesda for real that many catagories.

then i though i go on the Nexus Mods and i brought up all and every VANAHEIMR mods category i only a Modal and texture mod category the nexus category Player home

i think Nexus know more so i put on PS5 Vanaheimr in the Models and texture

oh boy..... Sony doesn't allow mods that use non-vanilla assets on their machine, so you would have to bypass their system, and somehow import the mods, and it would probably invalidate any warranty or guarantee.

For the PS5, on which I play, your best bet is just to use the creation club mods.

Yeah. Originally there was no mod content coming for PS. Bethesda and Sony already ended talks about it. They made some last minute deal, which caused all the content to come in through "pipeline" and that PS mods do not include any external assets.

PS players developed whole culture around building glitches for Fallout 4. XBOX and PC players had a bunch of other tools, but they had determination get most out of the game. I have to respect that.

But it runs amazing

No doubt about that.

NexusMods has a category (DOT com/skyrimnintendoswitch) for Nintendo Switch Skyrim mods, which obviously can only be installed on a jailbroken/mod chiped/pirated Switch - so it's contradictory that there are no category for PS/Xbox as well.

No wonder many users complain about their double standards. lol

Nintendo does not allow mods as such, but it does not control devices either. You can edit the device for your own use, but you can not sell such device.

The difference is that Sony keeps everything in check under it's PSN system and has made a specific agreement with Bethesda about how mods are distributed. Nexus can not break that agreement, by creating category for content that would break the agreement between Sony and Bethesda.

While ZeniMax enforced mod author rights for their own content after Curated Workshop (thus far Bethesda relied on Creation Kit ToS telling that they owned rights to all mod content) and that applies for distribution rights (legally, in EU and UK area - and Nexus is located in UK), Blacktree Gaming Ltd would still have to go over Bethesda's head to make a category for PS mods.

That is not going to happen. Those companies have had beneficial agreements with each other for a very long time and neither has will or need to get rid of them.

You can't do anything with Nintendos online services if you chip the switch to do mods, The Playstation is designed for being connected to the Playstation network, if you hack it all sorts of things stop working, and that's a £400+ console down the drain....

Well, it's still weird to see a Switch category. xD
Couldn't N'ninjas try to take down NexusMods at any time for "promoting piracy" or something?

Sony has never allowed external content since day one....
Xbox does not have those restrictions but you cant use Nexus mods....
PC --well you know there are over 10,000 mods for it.
it has always been this way since launch.

No because chipping a Switch isn't illegal, it just invaldiates the warranty and nintendo online services are no longer available. Just because Nintendo rejects anything to do with a chipped Switch doesn't make them illegal in and of themselves....

It's a case of burning bridges to do one minor thing, and you will never get an update of them, but it's the owners choice

PS5 PRO was a digital only version of PS5, meaning you can't buy second hand games.... aka a rip off (I own a disc version of PS5).
If Xbox Prim is similar you are probably not going to be able to use discs there either...

For me personally being able to play my PS4 games was a deal breaker...

But you can when i purchase my PS5 Pro its only digital, but EB games are selling disc drives for PS5 Pro for over 160 dollars

I think you may have made my rip-off point better than I did.

i want to say first off....i have nothing against consoles at all. but if you compare the prices of them against a PC with a little more money you could get a PC. with far greater capabilities than console then add in the fact memory is pretty much unlimited , i currently have over 8 TB and able to play todays games on a PC from Walmart Marketplace with no problem for under $1000 , plus the ability to expand and upgrade, youd get rid of the restrictions on either one and be able to use more mods. just a suggestion is all ( coming from a console user who changed over)
