Nexus Part 2

This morning Dark0ne, previous operator of the now closed Elder Scrolls Source, has announced some great news. Those of you who've been keeping up with Cheydinhal or the Bethesda Game Studios Forums will probably remember him saying this:

"I have big news ... but I'm going to go to bed now. So tune in tomorrow ;)"

As it turns out, with another negotiation with his ex-partner, Dark0ne has acquired the forum database from The Elder Scrolls Source. This means that when The Elder Scrolls Nexus goes up all forum posts and file comments and all member accounts will be restores. All people who were members on Source can access their old accounts on Nexus as well as access and modify their uploaded files.

Read it from Dark0ne himself on the Bethesda Game Studios Forums here.

UPDATE:

It seems file comments are not salvaged.

The Elder Scrolls Nexus

As some of you may know, Dark0ne, the person who made the Elder Scrolls modsite, The Elder Scrolls Source, a success, recently decided he wanted to go his own way and have full control of the site. He started up The Elder Scrolls Database to that end, but, due to legal issues, it had to be taken down.

Dark0ne has, however, announced a new modsite-- The Elder Scrolls Nexus-- is in the works. So far the site is looking pretty good. And, with Dark0ne in charge, I have no doubt it will be a fan favorite in no time.

In a recent meeting with his ex-partner they've came to an agreement that Dark0ne can legally use the entire file database. This is great news as, normally, when a mod site goes down some mods are lost forever. Now Nexus will have all the files that the Source once had.

Wish Dark0ne luck and read more about it here.

UPDATE

Just minutes ago Dark0ne made this announcement on the Bethesda Game Studios Forums:

"I have big news ... but I'm going to go to bed now. So tune in tomorrow ;)"

What does this mean? We'll all have to wait until tomorrow to find out.
