If you really really don't trust us for whatever reason, you can check the source code yourself! On top of that we've signed the software with our "Black Tree Gaming Ltd." key, just like NMM, so you know the software is legitimately from us and not from someone malicious and we're releasing the source code of the software with the executable just for your own peace of mind. If you want to share the information, you'll have to willingly post it to us, and you can see all the information in the report so you know exactly what you're sending us.
The Nexus Download Diagnoser will obviously need to be able to connect to the internet so it can run the download speed test (so update your firewall as necessary) but it will not send or report any information automatically to us. In the interests of security and privacy we've kept things very simple for you.
Remember, only download it from a domain, never from anywhere else.
You do not need to install the software in order to run it and you can download it here. Hopefully useful information that will help us to understand what is happening and why your download speeds are slow. It's a very simple piece of software that will run a download speed test against our CDN server and generate a report for you to post for us to see which will provide us with a lot of information. For example, simply saying "I'm getting bad download speeds" isn't useful at all for us!Īs such, we've coded a small piece of stand-alone software which we've dubbed the Nexus Download Diagnoser. We're continuing to work on the download setup within the CDN as we continue to learn all the little intricacies involved in such a complex setup but we're struggling to troubleshoot a lot of people's download speed issues, a lot of the time, because we're not getting the right sort of feedback. For many, download speeds have stayed the same or improved with this move but for some, download speeds have gotten worse.
If you have a custom Factorio world you made in singleplayer, downloaded online, shared to you by a friend, or from a previous server, you can easily use this as your server's world.
