I'm just getting back into skyrim with a few new mods and finally thought I'd grab the dragonborn dlc, and the unofficial patch from the nexus, but daaamn, the download speed is like kbs.

Utterly terrible. Avatar View Profile View Posts. Originally posted by alr :. My download speeds on steam or most sites are around 1. That is when I posted this. Its due to the sales of programs they host mods of. Happens every time. How do the sales of the games they host mods for affect download speeds? I decided to just get premium to have no download cap.

I have restarted vortex, restarted my pc and nothing seemed to have worked. Download speed is not limited by Vortex - at all. Even the non-premium cap isn't. That's all under control of the server.

Vortex Version: 0. Best regards, Weston. My internet is fine and I know my firewall isn't interfering with it in any way. Now I can't even do that. Inspect:: mod failed to downlaod due to a time out sorry cant remember the exact wording and i couldnt copy and past from the Inspect pop up info.

I'm getting an odd issue where I have paid for premium download speeds, and get those when I am manually downloading from the nexus server. I've tried letting it through the firewall but I'm unsure of what else could be the problem. I'm unsure if this is a temporary speed issue, as it's only being affected by downloading through vortex and it's been happening since yesterday. I'm aware that the solution would be to just download manually and install from file, but if there is anything I could try to fix it that would be great.

Once again, sorry if this is the wrong form to report this potential bug. A very painfully slow experience as downloading anything at that speed takes a long time, and I know it's not my internet connection because if I download manually I don't have this problem.

The easiest way to find and install mods for the original version of Skyrim on PC is a program called Nexus Mod Manager, which has an associated website.

This program is also compatible with Skyrim: Special Edition and many other games. Modders upload their work to the website, where users are able to search for interesting mods, download them, and then install them using the Nexus Mod Manager program. Account creation is free, although there are limits placed on free accounts. For instance, download speed is capped if you don't pay for a premium account.

All of the Skyrim mods on the Nexus Mods site are free, and you are not required to pay any money or provide any billing information during the registration process. You do not need to pay to create an account. If you do not wish to pay, do not select any of the payment options during the registration process. Nexus Mod Manager searches for over a dozen different games.

Once it has located Skyrim, you can click Stop Searching if you don't have the other games. Select the location where you would like to store the mods that you download, and click Finish.

After you install Nexus Mod Manager, you need to dig in and find some mods for it to manage. This is done through the same Nexus Mod site where you made an account and downloaded the manager software. The next step is to locate and download Skyrim mods from the Nexus Mods site, and use Nexus Mod Manager to install them:. You may need to authorize Nexus Mod Manager to make changes to your system.

If it fails, try running Nexus Mod Manager as an administrator. In the Nexus Mod Manager client, select a mod that you have downloaded, and click the green check mark on the left to install.

You can download and install as many mods as you want with Nexus Mod Manager. In fact, it's literally possible to run hundreds of Skyrim mods at the same time. However, adding too many mods can slow the game down, and some mods don't work well with each other. If you find that your game doesn't run well, or that it doesn't launch at all, use Nexus Mod Manager to change the load order of your mods.
