Skyrim's Biggest Mod just got an Update... │ Legacy of The Dragonborn V6 

just as Todd intended

What build you plan on running? I’m thinking about doing a vampire arcanist build from ESO implanted in Skyrim through a few mods

I think I'll have to second you on that

I completely forgot about this one, that's my mistake. Thank you for letting me know :)

I've found that the AS mod is way too buggy, and go with the Skyrim Unbound mod, which unfortunately doesn't have a LotD add-on.

​@@swiizzlesis this update on Xbox?

@@Ghostgate611 Not yet, it's still being updated. But it is coming :)

@@swiizzles ah that's a shame should be worth the wait though. Hopefully it's not too long away

It is definitely worth it, such a great experience! Glad you enjoyed :)

Thank you so much, I hope you enjoy your stay :)

Much appreciated! Hope you enjoy your next playthrough :)

Appreciate it! That truly means a lot to me :)

It really is one of the greatest mods out there. Glad you're enjoying it besides from the crashes :)

It is time.

That's what I was looking for... so it isn't available on Xbox?

Appreciate it :)

Means a lot, thank you :)

There are patches but, honestly, not always satisfactory to me, so I choose to not add those AE CC mods that are mostly about items that LOTD already introduced into the game (there’s a link in either the main page or in the CC patch hub to a spreadsheet telling you exactly how many NEW relics each CC mod adds). Not downplaying those CC mods, just avoiding the mess of fixing and making consistent things that weren’t broken to begin with.

There are also some interesting third party patches that explore synergies between LOTD, CC mods and others, like the link between The Cause, LOTD’s Pale Pass and BS Bruma. AE content definitely expands on what LOTD has for you - but bear in mind that, as warned, if you install v6 then any third party patches you add will updating.

Most of the time the artifacts just use the new model and might go into the new museum location. There's only one that's kinda weird. One of the armor sets now has a CC quest and has been renamed as a forgery by Legacy. It doesn't bother me, but that's the only odd thing I can recall.

It is genuinely so impressive how long they've been keeping up with it. Glad you enjoyed :)

@@moonkenzie Lord's Mail, I believe.

That's fair enough, hopefully you have fun with it :)

You don’t have to do the quests if you don’t want to, there’s always an option in dialogue to simply skip the various quest lines. In fact, the only quest line that couldn’t be skipped just got a skip option added in V6.

It’s because it changes too much, to where simply loading up a character that was using the old version, with the new version installed, would either lead to an immediate crash or instability. Minor updates won’t be a problem, but big updates like going from V4 to V5, or V5 to V6, are more dramatic. Basically anything that gets removed causes issues, as your save file still expects them to be there. So if, for example, the layout of the museum is changed, and certain hallways either don’t exist or were moved, your save file still expects them to be there. And if it goes to call on them, and they’re not there (because you have the new version), the game will crash. That’s why depending on how dramatic the update is, your save either simply won’t load without crashing, or lead to more crashes across the board as your save file calls on references that no longer exist. General modding tip - it’s usually fine to add things mid-playthrough, but never remove things. Tl;dr Yes, it means your other characters can’t use the mod. Only new characters can use it.

I don't know this mod in particular but installing mods with MO2 is pretty straight forward. It should just ask if you have Creation Club items or other mods. Then automatically sort plugins. The best tip when it comes to modding is to just take a break if you get frustrated. Trust me bro, I'm not the smartest guy around so you can pull it off too. (Edit): Follow the directions as best you can. Everybody can make a mistake, so don't worry about it if you do.

Yes? And yes, there is a Moonpath to Elsweyr patch as of at least V5 from their official LotD Patch Hub.

@@susanzenonian5085 I know there's a patch but in the regular Skyrim version MtE is integrated into LotD, unless I'm mistaken. I didn't download it separately in case it were to be added into a later version of LotD, and I'm a bit too lazy to reshuffle things

Unfortunately it does require a new game if you're planning on downloading it, even if you've never downloaded the older versions

@@swiizzles 🙏 Thank you for that. For my next game I will use. Does Nolvus use separate mod profile? Meaning that I can still go back to my old characters pre-Nolvus to play them? I could not find anything on this on the website.

@@Lettuce_Play I'll be honest, I've never actually used Nolvus myself so I wouldn't know, sorry. I would say your best bet is to post your question on Reddit as someone on there is bound to have the answer you're looking for :)

@@swiizzles 🙏ah okay. Thank you so much for your help so far ☺️.

I've been asked this a couple times now so I'll try to get a video out soonish going over my current modlist :)

I was running the latest version throughout this video so I would say so, yes.

The current standard of Skyrim versions for mods is SSE. They even halted development on the upcoming Odyssey mod, and started up again for SSE compatibility as a standard.

It's been compatible with AE for a while now, not just V6.

@@CodeguruXIt really depends on what you mean by SSE. If you’re referring to anything other than the latest version of the game, you’d be wrong, many mod authors simply refuse to support older versions of the game now. The community has moved on. But if you’re talking about the latest version, just without the paid AE content, that’s a different story. Both are equally supported ultimately.

No, sorry if I misspoke. You hand the leaflets to other NPCs who can then show up at the museum in the future :)

@@swiizzles time to figure out to give to the deadraic princes

Tbh can upgrade to AE now most skse mods and others updated.Only big one left is .NET Script Framework but suppsoed to be update soon

​@@Johnny-fv5wn is it even required for things now?

But it does work with 1.5.97 - Best Of Both Worlds! In case someone needs this information

@@Jules-69lolNope, nothing really uses NetScript anymore. The last holdout was Custom Skills Framework, but even that got updated to no longer require it some time ago.

@@CaptainEffort always wondered why the author refused to update it so badly

I don't know myself, but I'm sure you'll find the answers you're looking for on the mod page :)

I think you can drag and drop it into Vortex if you use that.

@@TheCyancheese I currently use MO2. Are MO2 and Vortex compatiable with each other, or are they 2 very differrent programs?

@@kreidasDon’t use Vortex, stick with MO2. That’s what 99% of the community uses. Just download the file, then in MO2 click the button in the top left to manually open a file. It’ll open a file browser window. Just find the mod in your downloads and double click. Then it’ll install like any other mod. Lmk if you have any questions or need any help!

This sounds like such a great way to play, I might have to try this myself :)

I really wish the modding was better on PS in general, so much potential for improvement

It works on 1.5.97 if you use BEES

@@PetrusEksteen you better be right about this

@liamlinson7563 I'm running it now myself, however make sure your LotD patches are also up to date. For example the Modpocalypse NPCs patch with cause CTDs (there is a fixed version in the comments section of that mod in case you use it). Best advice I can give is to update LotD to V6, then run xEdit and highlight all your mods, right click and select "Check for errors". See if there are any "Could not resolve" errors in patches for LotD, and those patches in question will require an update (or quick fix in the case of the Modpocalypse patch)

@@PetrusEksteen sounds good, i dont think any of my mods should conflict with it aside from some city and town overhauls and possibly cathredal npcs. possibly even expressive face gen morphs. curious btw, do you also use comap?

@liamlinson7563 Yeah I think so, from memory it has a backport available or something like that

They tell you how to download the resource pack from steam on the first mod post under *spoiler*

@@deloughi1887 Oh my, thanks! I didn't noticed that

It's still in the process of being updated for Xbox, but should release eventually :)

I'm almost certain if you just download the base version with the cc patch, you'll have the experience you're looking for :)

It'll be coming out for Xbox at some point but it's still in the process of being updated :)

@@swiizzles Yeah, I'm on Playstation. Any word if a Playstation edition will be out? I'm not holding my breath because I know how uptight Playstation is about modding.

@@MasterBiffpudwellSorry, but sadly there won’t be. It uses custom assets, a lot of them

It's only on PC at this time, but will be coming to Xbox once it's been updated :)

Still thought I'd mention it, just in case. But I get where you're coming from :)

Skyrim Unbound lets you play as a non-dragonborn character, not exactly what you are hoping for, but still different.

I believe it is yes, although I haven't tried it myself since the latest update :)

@@swiizzles Awesome thanks bro!

It's still in the process of being updated for Xbox, but is definitely coming :)

You might like the mod Undeath with a questline and player home/base where you become a Lich aka peak Necromancer kinda vibe.

the4re is a undercroft for more darker artifacts he wont take tours down there

There’s a secret area underneath the Museum where you can house your sketchier stuff. Assassination trophies, Ancient Vampire parts, various unique skulls you happen to find, etc. It’s not open to the public, it’s exclusively for you.

@@CaptainEffort like to think that the secant tour you have to ask for. invite your guild members or brotherhood member over they need to get out more anyways

@@Kirbyroth For real they all live underground, and I’ve never once seen any of them leave

Unfortunately not. At the moment it's only out for PC but will be coming to Xbox at some point :)

I believe it's still in the process of being updated. I think it takes a little longer than on PC but is definitely still coming :)

@@swiizzles thanks I have Skyrim on pc for Xbox so this is a mod I keep tabs of for my next nostalgia play through.

there are official patches for probably all of them

For some yes, but still a lot of conflicts ​@therealikitclaw8124

It will be coming to Xbox, but at the moment it's still in the process of being updated :)

yeah it's so cringe

It's not for everyone, but worth giving it a try at least once :)

Weird, I can’t think of a single fetch quest in the entire Lotd main quest…

Icecreamassassin has already confirmed Odyssey will need a new playthrough. He did an interview here on the RU-vids

@@Rocky-or4rz Thx for letting me know. Totally unacceptable by me, so it's a NO. Hundreds of great mods out there that actually respect our existing saves....

@@nichio77it’s not about respecting saves it’s just a limit of mods like this that changes a lot about the world

Adding mods mid playthrough is not a good practice anyway...

sometimes quests require you to start a new game for them to work properly, it isnt a choice modders make to force you to start a new game

Why?

@@lolmmm7150one has requiem the other one doesn’t yk

kinda agree. i based my playthroughs around LOTD when I modded the game myself ( less than 1000 ) but now that there’s premade 1 click mod lists on wabbajack that push 2-3k mods I feel like there’s enough other content to do that i’m not exactly missing LOTD as much. that being said, it is the ultimate quest mod for a thief / collector style character. Some of my longest playthroughs have been on a LOTD based character

Requiem still hasn't figured out the dragonborn dlc. Understandable though, it's only been about 11 years since it's been out.

My mod list has both. Legacy of the Dragonborn just gives me the playerhome I always wanted

Have you actually tried it…? There’s literally not a single fetch quest in the entirety of the mod’s quest line. You literally just play Skyrim normally, but instead of stuffing all of your artifacts into a bottomless chest, you display them in a museum. That’s it. It also gives you a great quest line alongside it as you grow the museum, but whether or not you pursue it is entirely up to you.

I've come around to this opinion myself as well, not because it's objectively bad, but because it turns Skyrim into a giant checklist instead of encouraging me to explore content immersively without stress that I'm missing something.

​@@ex0stasis72 this, this is literally how I feel with lotd

Just, no

haha, if you don't like playing a 13 year old game in it's original content, then you don't like the original game, too funny, it's like you are saying that they aren't true gamers cause they wish to extend the life of a truly classic game..

What have you been smoking? How is a free mod a rip off?

It's free bruv

This is not the creation club
