Nexus Mods retire their in-development cross-platform app to focus back on Vortex
15 Jan 2026 at 5:37 pm UTC

Quoting: eldarionI don't know about the cross platform app, but Vortex is a buggy and overcomplicated mess. I miss the days of Nexus Mod Manager...
It's funny the NexusMods is best known for Skyrim modding, because this really reeks of Bethesda being adamant that the Creation Engine totally isn't just a Gamebryo rebrand and is totes the best at modern game development actually.

I'd really love to see a git-based or other repository-style mod site. One of the biggest issues in modding is the modder gets bored and their mods eventually break because they don't keep up with dependencies or game updates, but no-one can do anything about it because the mods would need to be disassembled, assuming that's possible, or it's not clear whether anyone else would have permission to fork it.

It took about 3 months for Valve to rebase to Wine 10 (then another 7 months to release the stable version).

Preset L for 4K, Preset M for everything else unless you're on a 20-30 series in which case the performance hit isn't worth it.

Quoting: RouhollahWe already have dlss override on linux. Take a look at the dxvk nvapi wiki on github.
Those still seem to just be the original DLSS flags, not the newer ones added in DLSS Override like switching between CNN and transformer models. I'm not seeing anything to change that.

Cool, but are we ever getting the DLSS override features? 😡 DLSS Updater (like DLSS Swapper) only lets you change the version, not the in-game modes.

But I do ask that you don't have the opposite of faith. Like, try not to be determined that we're going to do the wrong thing here.
Experience?
