Nexus mod manager trying to download zip file?

If there is a problem with any piece of equipment along the route it may be beyond our ability to fix. Our developers work hard to ensure that your downloads are being routed to the server with the best connection but there are times where these limitations that are outside of our control mean that we cannot provide you a fast download speed.

In these cases, we may ask you to consult with your Internet Service Provider ISP to see if they can improve the way they route your traffic to our servers. If you are getting a consistently limited speed which is lower than the maximum for your membership tier, this is not being enforced by us and is either a connection problem or a limit from your ISP. You can read more about our download caps and membership tiers here.

Before we get into the more advanced troubleshooting, it's important to cover the simple problems we often encounter which can be fixed with relative ease. In this section we'll be checking your maximum connection speed to each of our server locations.

For each of these links please stop all other downloads on your PC, click a link, allow seconds for the speed to stabilize, take a note of the speed, then stop the download and try the next one.

I'm having download issues. What can I do? In order to investigate download issues that have been reported to us, we require the following information in the report: Country: The place you're downloading from, please make sure you are not using a VPN when testing as this may make this information inaccurate. Test download speeds: You'll need to try and download each of our test files in this article. Your download link: The link generated for you when downloading a file.

TraceRoute: This is detailed information about your connection to our services, which allows us to identify any common stalling points. When you do download, always go to the mods files tab and pick which file or files you want. With some mods you must download from the files section or NMM won't work. And yea, I'm clicking "download with manager" for the specific files I want. Time to download Firefox.

Then my guess is that you are trying to use NMM to download a mod that is not compatible with NMM and has to be manually downloaded and installed. Manual downloads are. Once you download and unpack the files to Docs or your desktop either copy and paste or drag and drop the mods files into your New Vegas game folder, in the "data" subfolder. All regular mods go into the data subfolder. Yeah use Firefox!!! Last edited by ronr42 ; 6 Jun, pm. The newest version of Nexus Mod Manager, which I didn't have, has a fix for it.
