Discovery is now on Nexus Mods!

[jammi]

Good news everyone! Discovery now has a Nexus Mods page! We're going to be using this as a part of our mod promotion campaign and featuring media and articles there. We're also updating our ModDB page, although this is a little slower going.

The Nexus Mods page also features a brand new mod installer. This installer has been compiled to launch with 5.0's files, meaning you'll no longer need to patch in several years of updates after your download.

We need your help too:

Mods on Nexus gain visibility through downloads, endorsements and votes for mod of the month. If you could download our snazzy new installer and then endorse, vote and leave a comment, it'll make a world of difference. If we can get onto the Nexus front page it'll give us a massive visibility bump.

We're still soliciting pictures through the Promotions Thread on the forum (https://discoverygc.com/forums/showthrea...tid=199273), and what we primarily need are pictures of live gameplay footage. We ideally would like a mix of awesome looking combat shots, and non-combat group activities like trade convoys. We're paying bounties for submissions we use!

We're going to be accelerating work on the new community Wiki (https://discoverygc.com/wiki2/Main_Page). This already has some generated pages, but we're going to need community help with filling out guides to help new players with getting started and potentially design work to help make the site look and feel more appealing.

Please share links to the Nexus page to anyone you think might be interested in Freelancer or arcade space sims in general. If you're still in touch with any old vets, maybe also see if they'd like to come take a look at what's changed. Installing the game and mod has never been easier, especially with the new website (https://discoverygc.com/).
