BS F-Zero Deluxe resurrects lost Satellaview tracks into the SNES game

Some intrepid fans have been able to reproduce the lost tracks from the BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 Satellaview SoundLink event and have created BS F-Zero Deluxe, a patch to incorporate them into the SNES game. The Satellaview was a digital satellite delivery (or broadcast) add-on for the Super Famicom. Like many prototypical digital distribution platforms, data retrieved from the service was only stored temporarily and could be overwritten whenever you downloaded something else. As such, if someone wanted to preserve a game,…

Nexus Mods celebrates 10 billion downloads, half of them are Skyrim mods

Nexus Mods is something of an institution in the modding circles on PC. Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with ModDB, Nexus is one of the most prolific and popular modding websites, bar none, and this fact is driven home as it reaches a new milestone — 10 billion file downloads in total. According to the latest official announcement from Nexus Mods, the site will reach a grand total of 10,000,000,000 mods downloaded on February 9, 2024. At this time, Nexus supports a whopping 2,683 different moddable games, with almost…

Starfield Royal Galaxy mod brings major changes to every corner of the universe

Even though there’s already a wealth of awesome mods available for Starfield, it’s still slim pickings in terms of substantial gameplay changes and revamps. Thanks to modder JaeDL, however, that problem too, is now partially resolved with the new Royal Galaxy mod. The fact that Starfield‘s Creation Kit modding tools are not out yet keeps the game’s modding community focused on simple tweaks, retexture mods, and configuration changes, instead of adding entirely new gear, features, and mechs. That hasn’t stopped JaeDL from…

Elden Ring modder turns one boss’s attack into an absolutely gorgeous explosion

First off, my apologies for reminding you that you’re probably missing Elden Ring a lot right about now. Even though I sadly don’t bring you news regarding the upcoming DLC, I think you’d like to know that Twitter user twistedgwazi modded Elden Ring to turn one of the great dragon Placidusax’s attacks into the most spectacular explosion I’ve ever seen in a game. Consider putting on your sunglasses before witnessing what lies below — even if just to look cool: That’s not even a cutscene. That thing is happening in…

Eternal Hunt is the revamp mod you didn’t know you needed

The Witcher 3 may not be the go-to mainstream RPG anymore, now that Baldur’s Gate 3 has that title, but if you’re keen on modding, now may be the time to jump back in. The new Eternal Hunt mod offers an excellent excuse to do just that. The Witcher 3 has a decent modding scene, though it still falls behind some of the most-moddable games from Bethesda and the like. It remains to be seen whether the community will pick up CD Projekt Red’s flagship fantasy ARPG after its official modding tools come out later this year.…

Nexus Mods bans Pokémon-based content for Palworld

With more than 1.7 million people playing at the time of writing, Palworld feels like it can do no wrong. Well, unless Nintendo/The Pokémon Company has anything to say about it. Before the call to investigate Pocketpair’s game, the modding community has taken to safeguarding itself from potential litigation. In a news update posted a few days ago, Nexus Mods has decided to put a stop to anyone uploading mods for Palworld that is considered to feature Pokémon copyrighted material. Any modifications that contain…

98 Times People Ruined Their Cars With Dumb Mods

Motor vehicles are so ubiquitous in our lives that we sometimes think of them as a natural part of the urban environment. Like roads, bikes, trees, and coffee shops...

We’ve collected some of the most epic ones to share with you, Pandas. It’s something that will probably amuse and confuse any…

Um…this Resident Evil 4 mod has a harbor seal instead of Ada Wong

Say what you will about the likes of Resident Evil 4, its iconic B-movie cheese means it’s a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously. However, there’s being flippant about certain aspects of your IP and…whatever’s going on with this mod. If you want to see the kinds of things people do to mess about with their favorite games, look no further than Nexus Mods user SupremeLeader777. For some reason, they’ve decided to take Ada Wong from Resident Evil 4‘s “Separate Ways” DLC and swap out her character model for that…

Nvidia RTX Remix beta now out, expect shiny remasters of classic games

If you’ve been itching to see retro games be given a bit of a pep in this modern gaming world, Nvidia’s RTX modding toolkit is already realizing that dream. With the open beta now out, prepare yourselves for an upscaled return of some classics. In a rather lengthy post, Nvidia has outlined exactly what the RTX Remix software is capable of. In a nutshell: it’s a “cutting-edge modding platform” that allows for games from a bygone era to be given a bit of a remaster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27LkeFtuq48 The…

The best Palworld mods | Digital Trends

If there’s a popular game on PC, then it’s only a matter of time before there are mods for it. In the case of Palworld, it took less than a week for dozens of mods to start pouring in for this massively popular survival game. There is already a ton of content in the game now, with all the various items to craft and different Pal types to catch, but mods can help some of the lagging areas of the game before the developers have time to provide any official updates or patches. If you want to tweak the game to your…
