Great video. You have made Alan Moore, the writer for Watchman, Swamp Thing and others. He actually considers himself a wizard.

Nice video, ive only just started playing Nolvus a few days ago, and i dont think i could ever touch vanilla again. Massive shout out to the nolvus team for making a stable modlist that touches literally everything and still maintains a good level of vanilla charm. Can pass on the underwear and wenches though, but i guess it has something for everyone 😅

@roleplayinglab 7 ай бұрын

So true they did a very good job on the collection! I recommend this to anyone who wants to pick up Skyrim for the first time in 2023.

Is it really stable for you? Crashes frequently for me.

@W1s3F0x 4 күн бұрын

In about 80 hours of my last playthrough, it crashed 3 or 4 times, but that's okay. My self-made modlist, based on S.T.E.P. crashed far more😂

I love how Tullius’s new armor looks like Tiber Septim’s armor (worn by Martin Septim) from Oblivion. The design just slaps in the best conceivable way.

Nice video, keep it up! Pretty sure Helgen is part of Falkreath by the way. Always felt like Balgruuf should have cared more about Helgen otherwise, considering he reacts so concerned to the people of Riverwood just being near the event.

@vtheman1850 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for this one dude! I've seen a few vids of this, but they had weird cinematic camera presets that made the game look near unplayable. This is just using True Directional Movement right?

@roleplayinglab 4 ай бұрын

It uses a couple of mods for movements but I’m not sure which ones. There is a list of mods and they are categorized on the website listed in the description. I actually usually play in first person but with those movement mods it’s much better feeling in third person from my experience. I hope you try out the mod pack and let me know how you feel about!

Well, I did. Made a high elf going for a spellblade. There are so many weapon types though, I will probably make other characters to try them out.

Spell blade is the best way to play the game.

Great vid dude. You using a special mod for controller or does the mod pack have it built in? I love using controller but feared there would not be enough buttons on the controller for Nolvus.

@roleplayinglab 5 ай бұрын

I have been just plugging in and playing with the controller. I know that I haven’t been able to figure out the dark souls like roll, but I find I don’t need it too bad. Everything that I have tried works well and I would feel confident telling you to try it exclusively with a controller.

Thank you. I was just about to type something similar but I wanted to check and see if someone else asked this question and was answered before I did so.

@patrickarmstrong8908 5 ай бұрын

It is amazing that it has 2,000 mods. I greatly respect and appreciate all the work they put into it. FYI, it creates a 1.5.97 install and doesn't use the one in Steam. No big deal. I was able to add some of my fav mods to it. Just took me a few hours to figure out why I was getting some compatibility errors. At first, I was really confused how some of its mods were working with 1.6.117, well, they weren't, duh. What's the specs on your rig?

@roleplayinglab 5 ай бұрын

Truly an amazing project that they created. At the time of filming I had a ryzen 5600x and a Radeon RX 6950 XT. Runs pretty good just recently upgraded to a ryzen 5700x3d. Also with 32gb of RAM.

@paninisarchiv 6 ай бұрын

Heh great to see so many ppl picking that modpack up. But how did u manage to get the standard start working? Just deleting alternative start? i always thought the hard script starter scene will get the horses flying if u start it with heavy modpacks

@roleplayinglab 6 ай бұрын

There is actually an option on install that allows you to disable alternate start and I didn’t have really any graphic anomalies on start up. One thing is it does take a minute to load all of the animations sometimes which depends on the speed of the drive you have it installed on. Overall though it’s a great collection of mods!

what are your PC specs? and are you playing Redux or Ultra?

I am playing in ultra and my pc specs at the time of recording this a 5600x and a rx 6950 XT. I’m also playing at 1440p and overall runs well. There are spots of lag just due to the number of characters on screen.

hi anyone that knows how to get vanlila start in novlus i just get skyrim unbound options?

@roleplayinglab 2 ай бұрын

When installing the pack there is an option to disable or enable alternate start. That is where you will want to look. Hope you enjoy Nolvus it is a ton of fun!

@wimfranken826 Ай бұрын

If you choose crossing the border you get the vanilla start anyway

@matthew66306 7 ай бұрын

Man I wish I had your PC. I still play Skyrim on medium settings without graphics mods😂

@roleplayinglab 7 ай бұрын

There is a lower setting on the installer but it recommends at least a gtx 1080. Luckily used GPU prices aren't bad right now. I for sure recommend this mod list down the road if you are interested!

@teemu829 5 ай бұрын

what gameplay settings are you using from nolvus? it seems like you are using alternative leveling at least and alternative start is off? how about hardcore mode and others?

@roleplayinglab 5 ай бұрын

I’m playing with only alternate leveling and I have everything else disabled. I wanted to keep it fairly simple and the survival stuff can get really boring. I also have fantasy animations on too.

you're gonna blow up man, this is so fucking cool to watch while high, what lichdom mod is used? i played undeath but it was very janky, i've heard classical lichdom is good but also heard path of transcendence was good

Means a lot! I appreciate it and I’m glad you’re enjoying the series! If I’m not mistaken I believe it’s classical undeath and hopefully it isn’t too janky with some updates they might of done.

@PowerUpPilgrim 4 ай бұрын

Which variant of the mod are you using? Are you playing at 1440p or 1080p?

@roleplayinglab 4 ай бұрын

I can’t remember the exact wording but it is the second highest quality preset and I am playing at 1440p. Later in the series I down scale the rendering which is done in the settings of the instance. I did that just to make sure I had more fps to consistently get above 60.

There is an option when installing to select alternate leveling. In my opinion I prefer standard leveling . Hope this helped 🙏

how did you do the normal start ? on mine I can't find a way

@roleplayinglab 6 ай бұрын

In the dashboard when you are installing it make sure you don’t select alternate start. If you don’t select alternate start you will get the normal start to Skyrim.

@brandonheadbird3943 4 ай бұрын

Are you playing on redux? Whats your specs???

@roleplayinglab 4 ай бұрын

In this video I was playing at the second highest graphics settings. I believe it is the performance variant. I have a 5700x3d cpu and a 6950 XT GPU. Runs well enough but there is a lot of variation based on where you are in Skyrim.
