Hey there, I was wondering if you could tell me what animations you used for your melee attacks around the 7 minute mark and 15 mark (dual and one handed respectively). I can't seem to find where it was mentioned.
Any help? I run Nemesis to tick the patches but cant get the "Attack-Distar" patch to show?? stuck here atm plz help *EDIT* Redeployed mods and the patch showed, but I installed the MCO Universal Support mod as well, and then "Deployed" my mods on Vortex again and then the patch showed up in Nemesis! For anyone else that may have got stuck there....
To anyone having difficulties with the dodge mod section not working, and on 1.6.1170, make sure you also install the mod TK Dodge NG in addition to everything else shown in the video. You will also need to configure the ini folder in NG rather than in RE now. Hope this helps.
the animations for the "desert dancer" at the 7:30 segment just blew my mind. they really exemplify all the whirlwind stylings mentioned of the Redguard people
the mere fact that you not only listed the mods and showed how to install/configure them, but also informed us of a discord where you or others can help if its needed and also keep things up to date alot better(as a website can be taken down, get clogged with trafficc, or hacked alot easier) has earned you a new subscriber. perhaps later today(when its not 5 in the morning and im still awake due to being unable to fall asleep lol) i will actually start installing these....i need to reinstall skyrim anyways as the hardrive i had skyrim on broke beyond repair
You sir are the best Skyrim content creator I have ever seen. And you made it even easier to follow you by including how to install the mods. Just thank you!
@@Mrjackcool2 do etttttt. Do you have a guide without wabba? Im downloading Wildlander, it looks great, and i want to implement some of these mods to make it more imersive. Btw, with these huge modpacks. Do you suggest some specific load orders? I don't wanna LOOT with that huge list.
One of the best I've found that didn't break the game. I had instances where I had to reload mods, due to MCM menus not loading, or the same mods crashing my game a few times, causing me to have to do a little research now and then. Got everything working except dodge. I have Ultimate dodge since my build doesn't do well with tkdodge for some reason, and I stay away from anything SARs since they have a tendency of breaking my game. Ultimate dodge was working up to the point of setting hot keys for dual mod. That was the biggest challenge for me. Great video I'm a lot better than I had been before, and that's saying a lot. Keep up the great work!
I was just thinking about doing a combat overhaul lo and behold Syn Gaming delivers. Thank you! I appreciate the details on installation and configuration.
NMM Nexus Mod Manager User Tutorial: -Attack Mco 4:44 Download and don't extract, go on nexus mod manger select puzzle thing on top left and add mod form there. -Nemesis Download 5:06 Download Manually, extract in new folder, copy the 3 files extracted. after go on skyrim folder, select data folder put the 3 file there. Now to use Nemesis like in the video just open Skyrim folder go data and select nemesis_engine, after that select nemesis unlimited behevior engine and program will execute. if u have done all steps will work, now just follow the steps in the video (:
I used to think MCO seemed really complicated, but this video made me realize I already have the 3 pre-requisites and Nemesis. All I need to do is download, enable, and run Nemesis. That's it.
Read my mind, started yesterday going down the Combat mods rabbit hole, and thanks for the mention of BFCO as i was wondering what it did vs the rest. Have a great one!
"...heavily lacks in production quality." My brother in Todd. Thanks for the great tutorial! This is a system I've installed a few times on my own, but always felt like I've botched it in the past. I'm sure this will help out a LOT of people.
Hello. This tutorial is so simple to follow and not convoluted with unnecessary information. Great job! I love all the MCO animations used. Could you tell us which animations were used in the "Precision" segment? Both one hand and dual wield?
it's a better idea to move your installation folder outside of your boot drive, and if you dont have a second drive at least move it outside of your program files folder
I believe the mod page recommends you add nemesis executable to exclusions in windows security. Navigate to windows security >virus and threat protection>virus and threat protection settings[manage settings]>exclusions[add or remove exclusions]. All tools should be at the root directory of any drive with its retrospective root folder and .Exe added to exclusions
I have 99% of the mods showcased here in my load order, and this video provides me with positive confirmation that I'm currently up to date. I highly value this channel's knowledge and contributions to the Skyrim community. Thank you.
i stopped modding when my rig died years ago and am still living in console hell. Its inspiring and heart warming to see that the modding community is still improving on gaming standards and hopefully influencing the evolution of developing games of the future. I hope game modding continues to evolve for the benefit of the gaming community.
I'm a complete novice at modding, so the setup directions are a great help. Have you/Would you be interested in doing a similar video for more realistic/less fantastical combat?
I Personally recommend to use BFCO, MCO hasn't been update for years, A Solid keep updating mod is best for modders and players,also it has more features and it is compatible with most of the MCO animations
Great video, I knew all of these mods except one that precisely solves something that bothered me a lot, Mortal Enemies SE fixes exactly what bothered me about the combat, thanks for this tip !!
Even thou i dislike heavily the end result I'm going to like the video cuz you had the balls to be honest at the beginning and specified this was a flashy fantasy combat overhaul
most in depth combat mod list with installation tuto . this is great work. thank you good sir. instant subscribe. a shame one cannot favourite videos. definitely doing this tutorial in the upcoming days.
While not a fan of the animations and mechanics - I play Skyrim to play Skyrim, after all - I do really appreciate the tools used for this, as they would be good even with vanilla animations and vanilla or close to vanilla combat.
One of the best things I liked about Skyrim was that it didn't have the completely ridiculous japanimation combat animations. 13 years later, that's still a major part I appreciate.
This looks fantasting! Just one question, though. Which Skyrim-version you are using? The latest SE build or certain AE build (sorry, I can't remember the version numbers)?
Improved camera from what I've tested makes all 3rd person animations carry over to first person. Could be wrong but whenever I have it installed makes it seamless.
I guess it's a matter of taste but most of these animations look ridiculous. I wish modding would go more in the direction of Kingdom Come and less in the Soulslike direction.
I clarify this in the first 30 seconds of the video. I also mention that this overhaul does not aim for realism, so if on a market for that, searching for alternatives would be the best bet. Pinned comment also mentions this :)
Hello friend, i think you can try the comprehensive first person animation overhaul with blade and blunt or another similar combat mod with a vanilla+ approach, this is more flashy as mentioned and some might like it, others not.
@@SynMods That's right and I didnt mean to criticize your video - it's just that 80% of modern combat mods are of this flashy, over-the-top kind and that frustrates me a little.
Can you explain how you have 2 different animations depending on weapon at 11:15. Is it automatic in the mod? Just a bit confused because you said you'd set it up.
Thank you Syn. This is a vid that is going to help so many players. I've seen a ton of vids over the last 10+ years and while I appreciate the showcasing of the latest and greatest, without someone taking the time to explain how they work in the showcase the average modder (too short a time to become an expert) is left grasping at straws. What you have provided here is one of the best, most succinct and useful vids for combat overhauls I've seen.
this is so funny, i finally decided to go down the mco route, aaaand 15 hours ago i spent about 8 hours suffering to get it working....and epically failing, cut 13 hours later and i see this mod release, thats halirious timing
Attack committment is the best mod in this list. I am sick to death of people selling their games as "action combat" only to have a machine need a compensator for lousy aim. If you attack in a direction, that is the direction you have chosen, YES you absolutely should commit to it.. instead of randomly levitating and spinning around just to hit me. Might as well blaze 360 noscopes all day if ur gonna do that nonsense THANK YOU best mod list ever, and tons of fun
Nice video man, it really helped a lot, I usually spend days just searching in nexus for bests mods out there and this feels like it is just that but in a 20 minutes video, again man, Thank you PD: How did ya set two different dodge animations? I saw that you did it with Dynamic Dodge Animations and the 2B ones. I want to do that too but don't seem to find a way to do it yet
anyone know how to do this yet? im also confused on how he set it up EDIT: for anyone still having trouble setting up 2 dodge animations, change the _conditions.txt for 2B nier automata "IsEquippedRightType(0)" to (1), as 0 is unarmed and 1 is swords if you want all 1h weapons to work, you also need to add "OR" at the end of the line and copy the following over: IsEquippedRightType(2) OR IsEquippedRightType(3) OR IsEquippedRightType(4) as that adds in daggers, waraxes, and maces respectively. Here is how it should look in your notepad: IsActorBase("Skyrim.esm"|0x000007) AND IsEquippedRightType(1) OR IsEquippedRightType(2) OR IsEquippedRightType(3) OR IsEquippedRightType(4)
Maxsu blocking basically makes timed blocks in valhalla combat useless. Because the time it takes for you to recover from blocking stagger, the enemy has recovered as well.
Can you do an nexus collection with your own personal load order? It would be nice to be able to one click download all these amazing mods you are showing us. If not then can you share your current Skyrim load order with us with google docs or a word document.
TK dodge unfortunately doesn't seem to work with latest version (1.6.1170) of Skyrim. Still, great video! Edit: I figured it out i think, I needed an TK Dodge AE esp plugin and TK Dodge NG, rebuilt the animations in nemesis and now it seems to work.
+1 to this. I spent hours trying to get TK Dodge to work in the 1.6.1170 update to no avail. This comment saved my life and my few remaining brain cells.
Thanks for the help bud. To anyone else reading this, don't be a sausage like me and make sure you change keybinding in the ini file of dodge NG. Should work after that if you did everything else right.
Those were my thoughts originally. However, after testing for 10+ hours, it does not. Nothing from the overhaul other than Mortal Enemies adjusts that insane turn rate in the game.
Great video, followed all the steps here to overhaul combat and the result was astounding. I also looked up weapon specific animations and none seem to look cool as your greatsword anim, so i just wanted to know which anim mod are you running at 17:25 for your two handed weapon
Just bought Skyrim (again) for my PC this time. The video came just at the right time for a first heavily modded playthrough. Thanks! Also, I wonder how well all of this would work with a controller? I struggle with FPS games on the MKB setup and will probably have to settle for mods that allow for controller mapping or have patches available.
@@theroldan8675 Yeah for the most part. Actually started installing mods yesterday, I haven't figured out how to work out the TK Dodge Re yet tho while using Gamepad++. Everything else like TDM and Precision and so on that's mentioned in the video work right out the box with the gamepad.
the modpack is actually much larger than what is listed, many of the listed mods require 5 or more additional mods to work, in reality you will end up with 66, other than that its a good pack
Using this list as a guideline, I've been having a blast so far. Although I've run into a few issues. The biggest one is that something keeps unbinding and straight up hiding the left hand control setting from controls, and also that hit noises tend to be very inconsistent, sometimes it will sound fine and other times the perfect blocks will never make any sounds. Do you know of any specific reason why these might be happening? Edit: In case anyone was having issues with the erasure of the Left Hand Control, do not enable Remove Block from One Click Power Attack. I was using it as a bandage solution to get two handed weapons to work properly but it was resulting in the block key (or in Skyrim's case, the left hand key) being completely removed as opposed to just being disabled during combat like I was assuming.
Hey Syn! This looks beyond amazing. I already know the answer to this first question i think... any VR compatability? and now that you've said no, do you ever review and VR mods?
@@TheOne01One I just skipped Elden Rim and used Maksu Block Overhaul and Modern Stagger Lock without it. I still get the great staggers, but only miss out on the body tossing from the big enemies. I'd like to have those too, but this will do until someone can explain how to use Elden Rim for just the Elden Stagger part.
You mentioned you're using TK Dodge but in some parts of the video you do a step dodge and roll dodge in the same fight, that's DMCO right or is there a way for TK dodge to have both like DMCO?
the downside to using precision is if you are say using a mod like skyrim underground, the use of precision will get your character brought to the reload screan.
Great modlist! There was only one small issue.... modern stagger lock doesn't work on the current build of skyrim, does someone know any workaround for this?
I was looking for someone else to mention this. I currently haven't found a workaround either, hoping someone else could chime in that knows what they are doing.
Modern Stagger Lock will need an update. In the mean time, Plus Combat and Chocolate Poise Plus are good substitute. One thing Chocolate Poise has over MSL is that you can use TK Dodge to dodge cancel out of your own stagger, which I prefer
I recently went back to playing Skyrim after learning about how insane the mods have become and how stupidly easy it became to start modding fresh with everything having been condensed into MO2. I was surprised that I no longer needed several different files like wyrebash just to do the more simple mods and that MO2 is basically all that's needed. I went with Nolvus and the only thing I want to do is change the combat animations as I had some really cool ones years ago and were updated to work with SE, but I'm unsure how to add/replace the combat mods in Nolvus or what is and isn't compatible since Nolvus is a rather large list. Reading through the section on how to replace combat animations or adding animations gets a bit confusing, same for finding new anim mods that require other frameworks that aren't part of Nolvus and wondering if it's even compatible or if I have to disable one framework to add another. Kinda the same issue with trying to read on how to get FNIS and Nemesis to coexist for mods that still require/use FNIS but were never updated for Nemesis.

For anyone having problems with nemesis updating or launching engine, turn off windows antivirus before you launch nemesis then try again.

EDIT: for anyone still having trouble setting up 2 dodge animations, change the _conditions.txt for 2B nier automata "IsEquippedRightType(0)" to (1), as 0 is unarmed and 1 is swords if you want all 1h weapons to work, you also need to add "OR" at the end of the line and copy the following over: IsEquippedRightType(2) OR IsEquippedRightType(3) OR IsEquippedRightType(4) as that adds in daggers, waraxes, and maces respectively. Here is how it should look in your notepad:
IsActorBase("Skyrim.esm"|0x000007) AND
IsEquippedRightType(1) OR
IsEquippedRightType(2) OR
IsEquippedRightType(3) OR
IsEquippedRightType(4)
Awesome list, man! Comes right in time. I just build a new gaming PC and wanted make a new modlist for Skyrim to utilise the increased power! :)
My Gosh this is Art...Syn you're a Genius 🔥😭
Maxsu blocking basically makes timed blocks in valhalla combat useless. Because the time it takes for you to recover from blocking stagger, the enemy has recovered as well.
Extremely helpful, great video.
Can you do an nexus collection with your own personal load order? It would be nice to be able to one click download all these amazing mods you are showing us. If not then can you share your current Skyrim load order with us with google docs or a word document.
TK dodge unfortunately doesn't seem to work with latest version (1.6.1170) of Skyrim.
Still, great video!
Edit: I figured it out i think, I needed an TK Dodge AE esp plugin and TK Dodge NG, rebuilt the animations in nemesis and now it seems to work.
If not, cheak for TK Dodge RE
+1 to this. I spent hours trying to get TK Dodge to work in the 1.6.1170 update to no avail. This comment saved my life and my few remaining brain cells.
Thanks for the help bud. To anyone else reading this, don't be a sausage like me and make sure you change keybinding in the ini file of dodge NG. Should work after that if you did everything else right.
Yeahhh! Let'saaa goooo! Thanks Syn!
Doesn't precision make Mortal Enemies obsolete, though? Or am I imagining things? Love the video by the way.
Those were my thoughts originally. However, after testing for 10+ hours, it does not.
Nothing from the overhaul other than Mortal Enemies adjusts that insane turn rate in the game.
Hands down the best tutorial for a mod showcase ive seen other than gamerpoet 👏⭐
Still waiting for either MCO or BFCO to support creature animations. Werewolves and vampire lords are long overdue for new movesets.
Awesome video highlighting some great combat mods. Will definitely be making a new pack with this.
What visual mods did you use in this video?
thank u sm for this video i didnt use half the mods because i still enjoy vanilla combat but this video the only one that helped me install tk dodge 🙏
Hey Syn, thanks for the videos. Recently installed Graphic overhaul and still modding! Which UI do you use here? Is just amazing.
gonna bookmark this for when I eventually reinstall Skyrim. Just trying to mix and match myself just takes way too much time
Informative 👍 Fun 👍 Easy to follow 👍
Thanks, Syn!
Great video, followed all the steps here to overhaul combat and the result was astounding. I also looked up weapon specific animations and none seem to look cool as your greatsword anim, so i just wanted to know which anim mod are you running at 17:25 for your two handed weapon
did you find it ?
@gintokisakata2694 no, i think it's a paid mod
It will all be so good that Adress Library is updated for Skyrim AE!
What ?! A Syn video without Arena fighting scenes ??? What happened ? ^^
Jokes aside, thank you man, a really useful video as always 🤌👌
Lmao
Cheers! :)
"Mom, I want to play Rise of Ronin!"
"We have Rise of Ronin at home.."
It's not even Skyrim anymore.
Just bought Skyrim (again) for my PC this time. The video came just at the right time for a first heavily modded playthrough. Thanks!
Also, I wonder how well all of this would work with a controller? I struggle with FPS games on the MKB setup and will probably have to settle for mods that allow for controller mapping or have patches available.
controller works fine along with keyboard
@@theroldan8675 Yeah for the most part. Actually started installing mods yesterday, I haven't figured out how to work out the TK Dodge Re yet tho while using Gamepad++. Everything else like TDM and Precision and so on that's mentioned in the video work right out the box with the gamepad.
the modpack is actually much larger than what is listed, many of the listed mods require 5 or more additional mods to work, in reality you will end up with 66, other than that its a good pack
Using this list as a guideline, I've been having a blast so far. Although I've run into a few issues. The biggest one is that something keeps unbinding and straight up hiding the left hand control setting from controls, and also that hit noises tend to be very inconsistent, sometimes it will sound fine and other times the perfect blocks will never make any sounds. Do you know of any specific reason why these might be happening?
Edit: In case anyone was having issues with the erasure of the Left Hand Control, do not enable Remove Block from One Click Power Attack. I was using it as a bandage solution to get two handed weapons to work properly but it was resulting in the block key (or in Skyrim's case, the left hand key) being completely removed as opposed to just being disabled during combat like I was assuming.
Hey Syn! This looks beyond amazing. I already know the answer to this first question i think... any VR compatability? and now that you've said no, do you ever review and VR mods?
Been wating for this. Thanks!
So it looks like you are just using the "Elden Stagger" part of Elden Rim without all of the other stuff it comes with, how did you do that?
I need to know this too. I cant get Elden Rim working at all. No idea whats up
@@TheOne01One I just skipped Elden Rim and used Maksu Block Overhaul and Modern Stagger Lock without it. I still get the great staggers, but only miss out on the body tossing from the big enemies. I'd like to have those too, but this will do until someone can explain how to use Elden Rim for just the Elden Stagger part.
New to Skyrim modding so I've got a Dumb Question. Do I need to downgrade off of Anniversary Edition or are all these mods up to date?
Looks amazing, thanks for the detailed explanations!
Raid shadow legends gonna be haunting me for the rest of my days. 2024 and it’s still prevalent.
You mentioned you're using TK Dodge but in some parts of the video you do a step dodge and roll dodge in the same fight, that's DMCO right or is there a way for TK dodge to have both like DMCO?
Id love to see s graphics list next!! The game looks so good!!
the downside to using precision is if you are say using a mod like skyrim underground, the use of precision will get your character brought to the reload screan.
Incredibly helpful
I can watch this without skipping
Wow, such an amazing video! Thanks for that! By the way, does anyone know how his options and menu are so clean and minimalistic? I love that...
Great modlist! There was only one small issue.... modern stagger lock doesn't work on the current build of skyrim, does someone know any workaround for this?
I was looking for someone else to mention this. I currently haven't found a workaround either, hoping someone else could chime in that knows what they are doing.
Modern Stagger Lock will need an update. In the mean time, Plus Combat and Chocolate Poise Plus are good substitute. One thing Chocolate Poise has over MSL is that you can use TK Dodge to dodge cancel out of your own stagger, which I prefer
I recently went back to playing Skyrim after learning about how insane the mods have become and how stupidly easy it became to start modding fresh with everything having been condensed into MO2. I was surprised that I no longer needed several different files like wyrebash just to do the more simple mods and that MO2 is basically all that's needed. I went with Nolvus and the only thing I want to do is change the combat animations as I had some really cool ones years ago and were updated to work with SE, but I'm unsure how to add/replace the combat mods in Nolvus or what is and isn't compatible since Nolvus is a rather large list. Reading through the section on how to replace combat animations or adding animations gets a bit confusing, same for finding new anim mods that require other frameworks that aren't part of Nolvus and wondering if it's even compatible or if I have to disable one framework to add another.
Kinda the same issue with trying to read on how to get FNIS and Nemesis to coexist for mods that still require/use FNIS but were never updated for Nemesis.
great video ❤
I would love to see something like that but focused on FPS combat. swords, magic or bow.
Sorry, it's me again. Could you please tell me which mod adds the blood effects when hitting an enemy?
this is all for the Special edition, correct? I should avoid the anniversary edition at all costs?
Nice video. What light armor were you using during the coliders segment? TIA
What's the New Lands mod during the Precision section? Looks supremely cool!
