A Lothering Mod

[TEWR2]

So, I haven't played DAO for a few years now and I had to reinstall it on a different computer. But, one of the things I distinctly remember is a mod that allowed you to return to Lothering after it fell.

 

I don't mean a "Return to the village and talk with the people again" in case you missed something sort of mod, but rather a "Return to the village after Darkspawn have overrun it and you can fight them, for the narrative feeling of liberating it from Darkspawn".

 

I may have downloaded it through the BSN -- which is now a footnote cast into deepest oblivion -- and the mod author may not have actually uploaded it to the Nexus, but I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with what I'm talking about?

 

EDIT: In fact, I remember quite a few mods I got through the BSN that the Nexus doesn't seem to have.

you sure your not thinking of return to kocari wilds?

The closest file I can think of to what you've described is a mod called Spiders and Knives (which I'm sure was also available from BSN projects; the Community Contest mods usually were), but it needs to be played before Lothering falls... if the mod author shared the mod you remember via the BSN forums I probably wouldn't have seen it, but I'm pretty sure I downloaded everything DAO from the projects, from early 2011 on. (Came to the game late, so I missed out on the earliest mods. /fail)

 

There is a spreadsheet compiled by the good folks at the Bioware Continuity Network that lists all the mods that were on BSN at the end; maybe something there might jog your memory?

 

Sorry to not be more helpful. :sad:

Yep, positive. The mod I'm thinking about didn't have any dialogue, people, etc. It was pure straight combat against Darkspawn until you cleared the area, but the fun came from you returning there and beating back the Darkspawn momentarily.

No worries :happy: . You don't need to apologize, you've been a big help. That mod you linked certainly looks interesting on its own and I'll take a look at the BCN.
