Nolvus needs anniversary? Or workaround?
I just went to install Nolvus and realized it needs the anniversary edition... Why did they do that? The anniversary edition itself is such a joke, so why are the modders forcing people to get the product that's obviously just a cash grab? Is Nolvus sponsored by Bethesda or something? It just doesn't make sense to me for them to use the Anniversary edition, rather than merely the special edition.

Anyways, is there a way to install Nolvus WITHOUT spend a ton of money on the anniversary edition?

Its not a ton of money, isn't it 20 bucks or something? Nolvus is mind blowing, honestly if suddenly the guy charged 50 bucks for the auto installer I would pay it. Over 2000 mods. Just buy it . Also, it has a lot of content for 20 bucks. IDk the price but its cheap..

So if you don't have aniversary edition how do you know its a joke without playing it.

The AE upgrade is $10 now during the sale and is normally $20 - I wouldn’t consider that a “ton” of money.

Now, if you bought each of the CC pieces individually…that’s a good chunk of change - easily $75 - $100 if not more.

As to why the Nolvus team has the AE content as a requirement…because that’s what they chose to do.

My assumption is that Nolvus intends to be THE modlist for the complete Skyrim experience - including the base game, DLCs, and CC content. Like it or not, the CC content can be considered “official unofficial” DLC - not made by Bethesda, but made by individuals they specifically chose to create content which they put their seal of approval upon.

It is what it is.

The thing I’d be wary of though is if Nolvus is going to keep itself updated and require any/all new paid content released on the Creations platform…that could definitely get a bit dicey and will likely upset a lot of people.

After playing Nolvus for like a month now, ah, if Nolvus suddenly charged $60 to use the autoinstaller I would pay it in 2 seconds.. For the ammount of content you are getting all wrapped up in perfection... Yeah ... Original Poster, YES U need AE version. If you have a PC that can run Nolvus, then you have an extra 20 bucks.

If Nolvus started charging $60 it would be taken down and the team behind it would get, rightfully, sued.

I love when people ask a question and then trolls from their caves emerge and tell you their life story and how you suck if you don't pay AGAIN for the same game and how they wish to be enslaved and taxed more money if possible.
You know you can just donate and shut the ♥♥♥♥ up about how much of a "simp" you are for the devs. Again IT WAS NOT THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ QUESTION, when I wanna ask "how much would you pay for Nolvus or how much would you lick their butthole" message me asap with your previously posted message.

You don't even have to pay for the creation club mods if you know what you're doing.

I mean, aside from the obvious piracy method, which I guess works because it's not like the creations have DRM, but I mean still getting the files directly from Bethesda themselves.

Imagine donning a Pickachu suit to do something about the most obvious issue?

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
