Old Post To bad no conqueror themes

To bad Xbox sets only have three themes for conqueror and. No others. My one wish is there are more on Xbox not just minutemen, bos, and the super mutants. I can’t let the authors to post theirs onto xbox so I’m hoping there is a kind person to let authors know that Xbox users what to use their conqueror mods as well not only the pc users,
 
One issue I have recently ran in to that kind makes things difficult, is trying to handle bug reports for XBox users. There are some mods that are XBox only releases, they are not on the Nexus or BethNet for PC, and I found at least two that cause conflicts with my BOS faction pack. The problem is I cannot load them up to find the problem since I don't have a console. Trying to research conflicts with no access to mods that may be causing a problem is basically impossible without outside help.

I know several people who don't want to release on console for this very reason and it is understandable. There is also the issue of the mod space limit on XBox and some faction packs have some pretty grand designs in the future planned that will greatly increase their footprint.
 
I am willing to lend a hand for the Xbox but no one asked if I would help out I have way to much time on my hands. The only problem I’d I only have Xbox and no pc or patron to let moderate know if the faction packs will work on the Xbox.
 
Unfortunately, I cannot but second what Taka has already said. Faction pack support and implementation for Xbox seems to be a real hassle, especially for the packs which draw substantial parts of their assets on already existing mods. As far as the Forsaken Vaulters are concerned, considering the mod space limit on Xbox and the fact that the mod in question already requires 10 other armour and weapons plugins to be usable (which is already suicidal in and out of itself even on PC as it narrows down the audience by a lot), it seemed to me hardly worth it to make it available on console. Virtually no one would install it. It could technically be done and I'd really much like to share it on as many platforms as possible but PC support is already so time-consuming for a modding newbie like myself that it wouldn't be reasonably conceivable. Some features take hours to implement, try out and debug even though they could seem very minor to the outside eye.

Add to that the fact that another portion of mod authors mainly make mods for themselves but decide to share them with the community without constant support and you end up with only few PC mods trickling down to Xbox.

In the end, console manufacturers are the real culprits for this unfortunate state of affairs. They make consoles (which are basically restrained mid-range PCs) but no real effort to facilitate modding.
