[#KushDaddy]

You don't have to pay to join their site nor download their mods. There is a premium subscription available, but you don't have to do it.

Worth the money?
What.
Mods are free.

[bnuuy]

The Nexus is completely free, you don't have to pay for anything to join.

it's never let me download mods lol, it always tries to get me to buy the preuimium membership.

Wait. What are you talking about?

If you mean places like Skyrim Nexus and such, they're all free to join.

You can simply make an account there and use their free servers. There is no "need" to pay a dime unless you would rather be a lil' faster on the download speeds and wanna support the sites.

I'm pretty sure you're either doing something wrong or you're on a fake website.

There's a button titled "Install NMM" on the top right

The premium service is optional. You're definitely doing something wrong. There is no "software"

(Download With Manager/NMM doesn't count. It's, once again, optional)

You can download a mod in a few clicks.

Make an account. Find the mod you want on the site. Click "Files" on the Mod page (Such as 'SkyUI'). Click download manually.

I'm assuming this based on Skyrim Nexus, but others should not differ.

is it hard to download manually and get it to work?

[chibilibi]

Shouldn't this be in the Skyrim or Fallout forums or something?

Anyway, no, it isn't particularly hard to manually install something.

[Hooty McOwlface]

Not really, no. It usually just requires you dragging files to where it tells you to drag them. Normally mods will tell you the location inside the folder downloaded, or on their page. Also keep in mind that even if you mess something up by putting files in the wrong place or deleting something you shouldn't, then you can always reinstall the game you're modding. Instant fix.

Some people like this way, others like using NMM. Both however are free. Keep this in mind: "premium is nothing more than a 'support' button" > You do NOT need it. If think you do, then you've clicked something wrong.

Once again this is based off places like Fallout and Skyrim Nexus. Both of which I used a great amount in the past.

I hope all this information helps.

Also, yes. This is a strange place to put the thread. Considering there are many "Nexus" hubs though...
