Welcome, Shadow-Born. Welcome to the place where Fate is created.


Nehrim - At Fate's Edge


English translation, basing on version 1.0.7.5



What is Nehrim?

Nehrim is a Total Conversion for Oblivion. It contains a completely new, hand-built world, numerous quests, many exciting dungeons, new weapons, armors, items and spells, full German voice acting, a new soundtrack and much more. If you were looking for a mod that provides a full-fledged role playing game, congratulations, you found it.



Why should I play this?

1.) Nehrim is a game focusing both on story and classical RPG gameplay. You solve quests, earn experience points, collect better equipment. Although this sounds rather conventional, Nehrim finds a perfect balance between a stunning presentation and the actual game. If you are not motivated to proceed playing once you have started, you are probably doing something wrong.

2.) There is something to discover at every corner in Nehrim. Monotonous woods and impassionately designed dungeons? Not here! And honestly: Who wants to wander through landscapes you can find outside your own home? Nehrim includes sets of landscapes that have never been implemented in any game before.

3.) There is more to the story than "Go save the world". Much more. The characters have deep personalities, they change throughout the game. And who knows, there may even be some romance...

4.) There is going to be a new soundtrack. Our team musicians Simon W. Autenrieth and Lukas Deschel have been industrious so even acoustics freaks will be comfortable in the new world. Aside from these compositions there will also be a gig by Schandmaul, a popular Folk-Rock band, who kindly have provided a song for the project.

5.) Nehrim has an elaborate synchronization. And when we say elaborate, we're talking no less than 56 professional voice actors and a recording studio from Berlin that got our backs. Regarding this, Nehrim may just be one of the biggest synchronization projects ever having been undergone for a fan project.

6.) Nehrim is free. All you need is a copy of TES IV: Oblivion.



Where can I find screenshots and videos?

On our website http://www.nehrim.de there is a http://www.nehrim.de/mediaEV.html containing screenshots, videos and the full soundtrack.



Where can I download Nehrim?

You will find all download possibilites on the website's http://www.nehrim.de/dataEV.html.



How can I kill time while I download Nehrim?

We recommend you to read the http://www.nehrim.de/download/Nehrim_ReadMe.pdf. In it, you will find several important things about installing and starting Nehrim. Moreover, you will find a short overview about the gameplay changes featured in Nehrim. If you know about them, you may have an easier time playing the game.



I still have a question!

Please read first through our http://www.nehrim.de/faqEV.html, possibly your question has already been answered. If you have technical problems or you are stuck in the game, please use this forum or visit our forum at http://www.sureai.de/forum/viewforum.php?f=81.

Help, the game will not start!


First, be sure that your installation went exactly as http://www.sureai.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=2267.


1. Possibility - Patch forgotten
Although Nehrim does not need Shivering Isles, Oblivion must be updated with the latest patch (1.2.0416). If you use the Game of the Year Version of Oblivion, you may think that the newest patch is automatically provided with it, but be aware: The GOTY edition only contains the latest patch if you have installed Shivering Isles with it. If not, then install it or download the patch (for Oblivion, not for Shivering Isles) from http://elderscrolls.com/downloads/updates_patches.htm and install it.


2. Possibility - Wrong INI-Data Configuration
A common reason for this is that the file:

"My Documents\My Games\Oblivion\Oblivion.ini"

has some changes in it that will cause Nehrim not to work. The simplest solution is to rename this file or move it (or delete it if it is certainly no longer needed), so Nehrim will not find it. The next time Nehrim starts it will create a whole new, fresh and accurate Oblivion.ini. Then you must, however, again reset any new game settings and ini tweaks you previously had or want to use.


3. Possibility – Wrong game files activated
In the option “Data Files”, make sure that only the files Nehrim.esm and NehrimData.esp are enabled. ALL OTHER GAME FILES MUST BE DISABLED.


4. Possibility - Corrupt Oblivion Installation
Sometimes the Oblivion installation gets damaged, which also affects Nehrim. For instance you may have moved the Oblivion folder or reinstalled Windows without having uninstalled your games. It may help to make a fresh installation of Oblivion.


5. Possibility – Installed into the wrong folder
Nehrim should not be installed into the Oblivion folder or into the Program/Program Files (x86) folders. If this is the case with you then uninstall Nehrim and install it into a different folder.

Aww hell yeah

Torrents hovering around 8hrs with only a couple of other seeders, not bad. If everyone plays nice and seeds it could be a very quick DL

- scrap that, now at 2 hours

COOL!

I got a few fresh untouched Oblivion installs. EDIT: Reading the readme and it seems I do not need the other installs - very nice on your part. Now back to the readme! END EDIT we will see what mods can be applied after playing for a while.

Thanks!

Awesome. I've been looking forward to this for a long time. A million thanks for your efforts on what I hope is a fantastic experience. :laugh:

I'll be helping to seed the torrent for as long as I can even though my upstream svcks.

Congratulations on being the first team, as far as I know, to complete a Total Conversion! :foodndrink:

Yeah, congrats. I've got the torrent, and I'll download then seed for a while, until I've distributed a couple of copies.

Fantastic, what an achievement! German modders rule! :celebration:

yussssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!! there goes my day! thx

YEEEY!!! What a great new game to play! :celebration: . Thank you!!!!!! :foodndrink:

Using the official mirror, I get around 1.5 MB/s. FAST!

NOOO IT GOT STUCK AT 50%

EDIT: They blocked people from downloading the mirror file. Guess the server got overloaded.

Why do all the amazing mods release while my video card has just exploded

Not sure if this work will get my attention more than others German mods even with his huge amount. For now I have to wait three or four days to get at my home and possibly start downloading.

Downloading the torrent as well. Ive played the german version was quite fun. Btw people please seed. Got 0 seeds atm.

Can anyone link to the torrent I can't seem to find it, thanks.

http://www.sureai.de/download/nehrim/NehrimInstall_1.0.7.5_EN.exe.torrent

I'd suggest using it as a matter of courtesy to SureAI and their servers. It'll only get faster as more people seed.

Thank you

nvm

I got a problem with the surai servers it says this:
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /download/NehrimInstall_1.0.7.5_EN.exe on this server.

Congratulations on the release!! This mod looks extremely cool and I'm really looking forward to playing it.

I'm downloading now and as recommended I just finished reading through the readme, but I could not find an answer to my question:

Is it better to install Nehrim with a vanilla Oblivion install? Or is it ok to install with Oblivion with FCOM and lots of other mods? What about vanilla with just the unofficial patches?

It doesn't matter, the installer will create a copy of your Oblivion folder with only the necessary data.

Doesn't it say not to use it with any other mods?

If I understand correctly, the Nehrim installer will go in and extract everything from your Oblivion folder that it needs and lleave everything that it doesn't need. I was asking if having mods installed to Oblivion prior to installing Nehrim would cause any problems with this extraction process which, according to Arandor, it will not.

One question while I'm downloading Nehrim: Let's say that I want to customise something before playing, i.e. edit Nehrim to allow using Khajiit race. The usual method of creating mods will work on Nehrim? And if yes, then do I need to, for example, copy/paste some resources from Oblivion rather than just click "Playable" in the list of races?

Congrats on the release. :goodjob:
Will have to wait a week to have a go and see how it all turned out.. all my games are packed for moving :ahhh:

I've got Nehrim installed and all mods unchecked, checked all the Nehrim related esm and esps, launch the game from the Nehrim launcher, and when I go and click on start a new game, nothing happens. Anyone else having this problem and know what I'm doing wrong???

Thanks
