galt Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Hello All, I just downloaded a huge mod (kinda) called Nehrim. Pretty damn amazing so far. Seems it's pretty much a new RPG game play, map and a whole new set of quests that are supposed to be very good and immersive. I guess it's using the Oblivion engine, but everything has been overhauled and many mods in Oblivion are incorporated already. Anyhow, just stumbled across it and wondered what you guys/gals thought of it. Seems to be really well done from what I've seen so far and read in the forums over at the Nehrim site. Check it out: http://www.nehrim.de/indexEV.htmlGood day! Galt Edited January 29, 2012 by galt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galadriel1 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Hey, I have played Nehrim too. I think it's the best mod for Oblivion (I played it about 200 hours or more). It has a good story, many quests, detailed landscape,...And yes, Nehrim is using the Oblivion engine (otherwise it couldn't be a Oblivion mod).

galt Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yup, just started the main quest, but the environment and quest line just sucks you in from the start. Truly amazing stuff. The AI is tweaked real nice, the music is new and excellent, voice acting top notch and very professional (in German but a few minutes into the game play you forget you're reading subtitles), the topography and outdoor environment it fantastic as well (all new as well). The environment is very alive with tons of muted subtle details including lots of woods creatures, birds, critters, bugs, broken carts, etc, to really suck you into the world of Nehrim. The detail the developers put into this mod is just stunning. Even each NPC you encounter has a different look, seems like no two have the same face or clothing, other than some guards and troops on patrol. The leveling has been fixed as well, which is a huge plus! I can't imagine how long it must have taken these folks to rework Oblivion to this extent. Anyhow, I could go on and on about it, and I just started it. If you haven't already, this is one mod you guys just have to try. Really adds the 3-dimension immersion and depth that Oblivion lacks big time. Just had to let you RPGers in on a truly amazing RPG. A amazing feat done solely for the love of the game by many many talented folks. Good day,Galt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NordicMist Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 The official website has been down all day long, however the mod can also be downloaded from http://www.moddb.com/mods/nehrim-at-fates-edge/downloads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galt Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Yes, the site is still down. In any event, if you can DL it from the link provided by NordicMist, just make sure you follow the install instruction very carefully. Not a hard mod to install, it only has three .ESP files to activate, but I had to install into C:\Nehrim folder due to issues with Win7 not allowing access to the Oblivion folder (something to that effect). Once I did that and manually moved the Oblivion.ini file into the Nehrim folder it finally worked properly. Again, follow the install/starting Nehrim readme before you install. Took me a few to get it to start without crashing, but once I moved the ini file, was all good. Once you get it installed and working just tweak your settings and you are good to go. Good luck and enjoy! Galt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
