Step Mod Curation

A curating service for Mod Authors

A service that Step Modifications offers to the Mod Author community is Mod Curation. This is very similar to Nexus Mod's "The Care Taker", with some differences. Since Step operates under "cathedral modding" principles, mods provided for Mod Curation are converted to "open permissions". In contrast, "The Care Take" will keep the mod's current permissions "as is". While the mods are covered to open permissions under Mod Curation, Step still retains Curatorship rights of the original mods.
