📋 About This Mod
Now you can add some spells to your character to fit each roleplay or playstyle you are about to start! The chest has 40 Arcane Resin (enough for 5 novice spells w/ default Spellforge settings).
Be aware, you must read the Spellforge manual (I added a copy between the chest and forge) and import spells before the forge is usable. This isn't a limitation of my mod, but just how the main Spellforge mod works.
The forge doesn't completely appear or produce it's light until after character creation, in my experience, so you don't have to worry about weird lighting.
That's it! Pretty simple. Make sure you have Spellforge and Alternate Start - Live Another Life, of course, and make sure my mod's esp (esl flagged) load after both of them.
Thanks to Arctal for the AWESOME spellforge mod. :)
This small utility mod adds a World Forge and a chest containing Arcane resin from Spellforge to the starting prison cell in Alternate Start - Live Another Life. It's for players who use both mods and want immediate access to Spellforge's crafting at game start. With 56 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche but functional addition.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tiny mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat, just a convenient World Forge at the start.
- Saves you from hunting down a forge early on if you're a Spellforge user.
- Decent following for a niche utility (56 endorsements, 36k downloads).
⚠️ Cons
- Only useful if you run both Spellforge and Alternate Start—otherwise it's dead weight.
- No compatibility patches mentioned, so it might conflict with other mods that alter the same prison cell.
- Last updated in 2023, so it could be outdated for newer game versions or mod updates.
For Skyrim players who use Spellforge and Alternate Start and want to start crafting right away. Skip if you don't use both mods or prefer a more immersive start without immediate access to powerful crafting.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have both Spellforge and Alternate Start installed before adding this mod, and load it after them in your mod order.
- If you use other mods that modify the starting prison cell, check for conflicts—this mod adds objects there, so load order matters.
- Since this is a simple esp, you can install it manually by dropping it into your Data folder, but using a mod manager makes it easier to uninstall.
