Like the title says, I am stating a new game and would like to try an alternate start mod.

The one I was about to download off TesNexus looked REALLY good with MANY endorsemants but then one of the comments sad it would not work with custom class.

As I have a custom class mod ("Society for Alchemy and Combat" class in my Hammer-blade mod ) I kind need that!

if the custom class comes built into a mod i don't think its an issue since the game reads that as a reguolar class. theonly issue is if you make a custom class from the class menu

oh, yes, that makes sense.

Thank you very much Tnu.

I wonder if they mean custom birthsign, not custom class? I've made custom classes using three alt start mods (Robert Evrae's Alternative Start, Dung Beetle's Alternate Start Revamped and CDM's Character Generation Overhaul) and have never noticed a problem with any of them using custom classes. A custom birthsign, on the other hand, can confuse an alternate start mod unless there's a way to force it to recognize its changes.

How would a custom class or birthsign effect an alternate start mod? Unless it does not bring up the standard menu for picking them I guess

I use this for an alternate start and I use custom everything xD

I find robert evrae's arrive by ship to be the perfect alternate start mod for me. I've been using it for years and never had a single issue. It's fast, not overly elaborate, works for custom races etc and doesn't break anything.

I use dung_beetle's Alternate Start Revamped, and love to start off as a hobo living in the Barren Cave. I can confirm that if I try to choose a custom specialization, the game crashes. So I choose a default specialization, and everything works fine...

Gave me quite a jolt when I decided to walk towards the cave depth with nothing on and only an iron dagger at hand (with FCOM installed), and was almost killed instantaneously! The guards (and a goblin) came to the rescue once I escaped the cave. Now that's a start I will remember.
