New DLC Sized Mods For FNV, FO4, AND Skyrim SSE Coming To Your Computer, Maybe? by Rogdonlp

NEW DLC SIZED MODS FOR FNV, FO4, AND SKYRIM SSE        COMING TO YOUR COMPUTER, MAYBE?

by Rogdonlp

     One of the great things about Bethesda games is that the game can be extensively modded.  Some mods are very small and only change one variable in the game.  Other mods, such as Beyond Skyrim: Bruma, are as big or bigger than some of the official DLCs.  There have been numerous ambitious DLC size mods announced in the past.  Not that many have actually been completed and released.  At the moment (10/12/18) I am aware of seventeen DLC size mods that are in various stages of active development and two that have been released on Nexus.

SKYRIM SSE
     Beyond Skyrim:  Bruma was the first of the Beyond Skyrim projects to be released.  Six more Beyond Skyrim projects are being worked on.  These are:
Beyond Skyrim:  Cyrodiil: The Seat of Sundered Kings  Cyrodill     Cyrodiil Nexus News
Beyond Skyrim:  Iliac Bay: Tower of Dawn  Iliac Bay
Beyond Skyrim:  Morrowind: The Star-Wounded East  Morrowind Beyond Skyrim:  Atmora: Expedition to the North  Atmora
Beyond Skyrim:  Elsweyr: Sugar and Blood  Elsweyr
Beyond Skyrim:  Roscrea: Voices of the Deep: Roscrea Project Webpage    Roscrea Video
Roscrea is the only one of these six projects that is nearing completion.  You can also access Beyond Skyrim on Discord (Beyond Skyrim: Community Outpost).

FALLOUT 3/TALE OF TWO WASTELANDS

     Fallout 3 is really one of Bethesda’s better games.  However, the FO3 game engine is ancient and very prone to crashes-to-desktop (CDT).  Tale of Two Wastelands (“TTW)” allows you to play FO3 as a mod of Fallout New Vegas.  Using the much improved FNV engine to run FO3 removes a lot of the engine caused problems.  I have played the older version (2.9.4b) of TTW twice and it makes FO3 so much more fun to play.  Version 3.2 is a complete rewrite of TTW and should remove some of the glitches of 2.9.4b and allow smoother gameplay.  The conversion is being done primarily by one person, RoyBatty.  The 3.2 version was released November 11, 2018.  See TTW on Discord.  The official TTW site and download information is here:

     This is an FNV mod.  The storyline is a prequel, set before the events of FNV.  The main quest can be played either as a legionnaire or as a former NCR soldier.  There are also side quests.  As of 10/12/18 the game is 80% complete.  Release will be, hopefully, by the end of 2018.  See The Frontier on Discord (Fallout: The Frontier) or  FO New Frontier  for additional information and to view the new trailer.

FALLOUT:  NEW CALIFORNIA

     This is an FNV mod.  It was launched on 10/23/18.  The storyline is set in 2260 which is 21 years prior to the events of FNV.  The questline starts out in Vault 18 in Los Angeles.  When the player character immerges from the Vault there is a three-way war going on between the Survivalist Army, the NCR, and the Super Mutants.  A video trailer can be found here.  Fallout:  New California Download

TESRENEWAL PROJECTS
