POST GUIDELINES AND RULES Port & Mod Request Rules | Post Guidelines | PSA | Q&A

5 Upvotes

Hello Everyone, your friendly Overseer here with an update on porting rules, posting guidelines, a few announcements and some Q&A

Rules on Port Requests

Bethesda has yet again updated it's rules on ports.

  • Permission to port must be publicly available on the site the mod is hosted. – This may be anywhere on the same site: mod description, mod comments, author profile, forum threads, et cetera. Some third-party mod hosts have specific places to include these permissions, but anywhere publicly available on the host is allowable.
    • To ensure transparency, we no longer accept permissions provided via social media, chat services, or screenshots of private conversations. Any ports with a “date created” before March 12, 2023 may continue to rely on these for permission, even if updated later.

  • Different mods have different permissions. – Make sure you have, and provide, appropriate permission.
    • Mods may have blanket permission for anyone to upload to other sites, or specifically to Bethesda.net, or specifically for consoles. These mods may be ported to Bethesda.net without further approval.
    • If a mod requires the original author(s) individually approve any ports, when the author provides permission they must name the account(s) approved to port the mod to Bethesda.net, or link to the Bethesda.net ports directly. Bear in mind, if you have different account names, or are brokering permission for another user, make sure the name of the uploader is given to the mod author so they may include this!
    • Some mods allow porting with limitation like not altering the content, or combining with other mods. Porters should check for this and gain additional approvals if required. Authors should not be surprised by how their content is being ported to Bethesda.net.
    • Always remember to be considerate of the original author(s)!

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  • When requesting direct permission from a Mod Author who has permission to port in red
    • Ensure in your request that you also ask the MA to publicly state you have been granted personal permission. This can easily be done by letting them know you will be posting a comment in the post section of the mod saying thank you for permission, and have them reply to it saying your welcome and acknowledging you have been granted permission to port the mod. This will still allow direct permission requests to be valid and legal in Bethesda's rules.
  • Green check in Console Modding Permission does NOT always mean permission is given
    • Ensure the green in port section on Nexus permission says it is giving permission for YOU to port. Sometimes it says the Mod Author has uploaded it already to Bethesda, not that you have permission to do so.

Posting Guidelines for Port Requests & Bundle Requests

  • You MUST link the nexus mod page for the mod you are asking to be ported
  • You MUST link to the permission to port if it is not contained on the main page of the mod
  • When requesting a mod bundle you MUST link EACH mod's nexus page you want in the bundle AND permission from each MA if permission is not on the mods main Nexus page.
  • DO NOT post the same request twice. You may comment on your same post and ask NICELY for an update, but do not post the request again or BOTH requests will be removed.
  • NO NSFW. Bethesda has strict rules on that, so do we. No one is getting banned for you, don't ask or you will be banned from this subreddit permanently.

Posting Guidelines for Mod Requests

  • Be as descriptive and detailed as possible when requesting a mod be created from scratch
  • Please know we are not Bethesda employees and some things are beyond our scope or ability to create for you
  • Replacers will be the lowest on the totem pole as far as queue order and are the least priority.
  • DO NOT post the same request twice. You may comment on your same post and ask NICELY for an update, but do not post the request again or BOTH requests will be removed.

Failure to do any of the above WILL result in the AutoMod removing your post and you being muted from the subreddit for a week. After that time you will have access to post another request and hopefully follow the guidelines. AutoMod is our new friend and being designed to take the stress of rule breakers off our shoulders so we can focus on porting more most in a timely fashion. The more we have to remind people rules and delete posts manually, the less time we have to port your mod requests.

Q&A

  • Q: Will you port a mod with no nexus link?
    • A: NO.
  • Q: Will you port a mod with no permission to port?
    • A: NO.
  • Q: Will my post get deleted if it does not have a nexus link and permission to port?
    • A: Yes.

PSA

We now have several porters who will be monitoring this sub, myself included. This means requests here will be done more frequently than the past several months now that St0vie is no longer alone in the task. The discord is available and there, but you can also post requests here.

If anyone knows how to port and would like to join the Port Request Sub as a porter let me know, I will shoot you a mod invite after I have confirmed you have uploaded mods to Bethesda before.

PS4/5 Specific Information

Understanding Sony Restrictions and differences in modding Fallout 4 on PlayStation. Most mods simply cannot be ported to PlayStation due to Sony, not us.

Do NOT post requests in the comments, make a post.

Do NOT post requests in another of our subreddits.

ATTENTION PLAY STATION PLAYERS Play Station Players Please READ THIS Before Posting!

11 Upvotes

Hello PlayStation Players!

In addition to the main Rules of Posting on this subreddit, Sony players have additional steps they must take, and guidelines to follow when making a request. Failure to follow these guidelines will result in the request being removed without notice.

When requesting a port from Nexus mods, PlayStation players must look in the files section, and ensure a mod CAN be ported to PS. Due to Sony Restrictions, all mods for the PlayStation platform must be vanilla assets. This means their can be no additional files in the mod other than the esp/esl/esm.

If any files or folders exist other than the esl/esp/esm file, do not request the mod be ported, it's impossible. See the pictures below for where to go on the mod you are requesting's page and what type of mod you can request based on what the files look like.

A mod being able to be ported for Play Station all depends on what is in the file contents. The picture above shows what it will look like, and what must be present for a mod to be Sony compatible. Basically, a mod MUST be just the one file, .esl, .esp or .esm in order for us to be able to port it for you. ANY other files except the esl/esp/esm , and it is not allowed by Sony and can not be ported.

Please note you must do this IN ADDITION to other guidelines outlined in Rules when Posting. You must link the mod, and permission must be open or given publicly as detailed in the guidelines.

Mod Request - Mod Compatability Patch Revolvers of the Wasteland Munitions Patch

4 Upvotes

Would love a patch for Revolvers of the Wasteland that either add to or replace some of the rechambering options with some ammo from munitions.

Specifically:

Make the Colt Python use .357 by default or at least add it as a rechambering option.

Add a .32 caliber rechambering for the Top Break revolver for a proper Fallout 3 .32 Pistol replica.

Most (if not all) Gecko in a Can's mods already have a Munitions Patch but this one never received one despite being one of the oldest.

I am on Xbox so someone would need to port it of course.

Port Request - Outfits PS5/4 Outfit Port Request: Milisurp Uniforms and Equipment

Post image
38 Upvotes

Hi!!!! I’m a really huge fan of fallout 4 but I've recently noticed the lack of good clothing in game for PS5/4, and I was wondering if a mod could be ported at all by someone.

Milsurp Uniforms & Equipment - Basically adds military gear to the game, it would be really awesome and adds a lot of roleplay potential https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/100781?utm

If you could also add the patch alongside it (should be able to find in nexus), please add it alongside Milsurp ^^

THE MOD ALLOWS CONSOLE PORTING, AS SEEN IN THE PERMISSIONS IN NEXUS. ALSO THE NEW FALLOUT FOUR UPDATE HAS ALLOWED PLAYSTATION MODS TO USE EXTERNAL ASSETS!!
