New version is out, you can download it here or go to http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/36954/, this mod will continue to be updated as Ancient Spells 2 mod in the other mod page, thanks!.
Sorry guys i know you fans have been waiting on this, i have had a lot of work latelly and progress has been slow, mod is at 80% completion at the moment, i will be completing it in the next few days.
Also due to the massive changes the next mod will be re released since it wont be backwards compatible with this older code, i will link to the next version when its ready in the description of this mod.
@ lolcliff There will be Finger of the Mountain.
@ DrPatches The look of a lot of spells including Greater Fireball has been reworked, so it no longer is a firebolt.
great to know, thanks for the news . A little thing i thought about : will there be a spell to invocate armor like there was bound armor spells in morrowind (there are bound weapons in skyrim after all) ? if it is not planed, could you consider it because it would be awesome.
edit : by the way, i use this mod with skyrim redone but i'm not really sure if i have to load if before or after since there are spells in both mods. Could you clarify please ?
Hi and thanks for the reply and comments, there will be a bound armor spell as in morrowind, dont know if it will be added in this release but i will try, mod is now 95% complete and mostly in bug check. If you have concerns about compatibility always load it last, even version 1 should not have issues tough.
Can't wait for the update ! Keep the good work this mod is great . Any news for when it will be release (approximately) ?
PS : i ask because i stopped playing until it's out, i don't like to do clean save. So, if it will be released in a few week i will wait but if it is a few month i think i will stick with the currant version. PS2 : sorry for my bad english.
Hey, I love the mod, but do you think you could change the greater fireball look to match the fireball spell? Right now it looks like a firebolt, but keep the increased area of effect. That would be great, because it's my favorite spell.
@ Freygon Yes im aware of many of those problems, this was in the beggining my first Skyrim mod loong ago lol, a lot is getting reworked, im checking every bit of data to match as close as possible balanced vanilla spells, im currently playing dragonborn myself (to find out what to use and how) and just realised that about waterwalking so it will stay, will be corrected a bit tough i did love the slow sinking while still much people hated Q_Q and i find 100% unrealistic to be just standing there like the DB spell effect, but lets see how i can reach a middle ground with this.
Even when i started this project i had always in mind to never render a shout useless, or use any effect from them unless it matched an old spell, and even so the spell would be weaker than the shout, i want to leave this mod as balanced and true to TES as possible.
@ dubbad29 The mod itself always would include all spells, if you only like some of them just focus on that tree of magic (spells are always available as a normal spell would in the main mod, just go to your magic dealer npc in the college, or purchasable from a custom NPC on an alternate version of the mod). slowfall will momentairly reduce your falling speed and reduce much or all of the damage you would suffer otherwise, and one would imagine BET would have included that spell right from the start of Skyrim considering the huge ammount of places where you could just "drop" in a fun way withouth worring too much about dieing.
