Hosted Mods section?

[minilogoguy18]

Can't beleive no one has come up with this yet. How about having a section in the modding area added for large mod projects that are for the most part followed here on JK Hub? A few examples being a sub forums containing info dealing with a specific mod, like say for instance a Gunslingers Academy section and in there would be threads for applications, teasers, mod progress, ideas, ect.

 

I think it's a good idea, would make tracking the large mods easier and maybe keep the WIP area for small 1-2 person projects.

Phrozen Keep does something similar, and was wildly successful.

Yeah, they do it in annother game I've been modding for some time, SWBF2.

WIth all the things going on within large scale mods I think it's a good idea to have a section like that here.

LucasForums did this a while back, was pretty successful.

Sounds like a good idea.

Added a poll, hopefully some good results will end in JKHub having a new section in the modding area.

Wouldn't this make it kinda irrelevant for mods to have dedicated sites?

Not really, since their sites often receive quite low levels of traffic. Besides, going to one forum for your JKA mod fix is quite helpful.

...so you're agreeing with me?

@@Szico VII_VII: Not the same thing at all. The hosted mods have their own forums as part of the JKHub forums. Works great for smaller mods such as the Harry Potter mod, et al. Not ideal for large mods like JKG or MB2. Links to mods are different.

 

@@spior: Yeah. I got kinda caught in a bad train of thought there. What I meant to say is, yeah, mods having their own forums within JKHub is wonderful, but if they wanted to keep a smaller forum on their own site for stuff such as development alongside the JKH installment, I see no reason why not.

Oops, forgot about this thread. Glad you think it's a good idea, it can also be good for some mods that can't afford a good webhost, maybe it could create some reliable donators?
