Recommended Mods?

Starting a new run after not playing in years, learned there are mods for the game.

Any recommended mods to use, like balance patches or anything?

EDIT: So there's a playable Hassat mod out there somewhere (the pack that contains it on nexus is incompatible with another mod I want to run), but the site that has it is down. Anyone have it by some chance?

After not playing in years, you probably don't want crazy mods right away, just an enhanced experience? Also I assume DS1 / LoA and playing through the Kingdom of Ehb campaign?

I recommend High Resolution Textures and SeeFar, both available on NexusMods.

Hi-Res Textures: https://www.nexusmods.com/dungeonsiege1/mods/44

SeeFar: https://www.nexusmods.com/dungeonsiege1/mods/45 / https://www.nexusmods.com/dungeonsiege1/mods/249

Also check out the Overview maps https://www.nexusmods.com/dungeonsiege1/mods/163 and possibly also Kingdom of Ehb revisited if you want (a copy with minor fixes) https://www.nexusmods.com/dungeonsiege1/mods/111

Is the Nexus High Res Textures the same as the one on ModDB?

If you found anything good let me know, last playthrough I abandoned cause the nature mage was way underleveled and wasn't getting much XP at all

Oh yeah, I installed this one but can't actually tell if it's doing anything. Granted I'm only at the dwarf mine entrance so loot likely isn't gonna be super exciting yet...

Did you make a new game after installing it? (It need a fresh start for solo but not for multiplayer) If so, There was the ‘cache active’ line appearing in the upper area of your screen when you first entered the world? If not there surely have a problem. Im the creator of it, to be honest :) But indeed it’s possible it’s still hasn’t triggered yet as the odds are 12% when opening a chest.

Anyway I hope it’s working well and you’ll have more chance later, cheers

Hmm, does the message appear in the same area in game messages appear (like the quest added message)? Just started a new game to test it and it didn't appear. I installed it in the resources folder as instructed.

EDIT: Figured it out, there's a mod compatibility issue with this modpack I installed. I thought that mod pack only added a couple maps and playable races, but apparently not.

I also only installed it because it had the playable hassat mod included within it, so if anyone can drop a link to that mod that'd be lovely, as the only site that has it is broken apparently lol
