📋 About This Mod

This mod adds the Ancient Forged used by the Jedi to construct their lightsabers and a Upgrading Table for upgrading them.

Note: All the lightsabers are "balanced" and tiered from tier 1 to 10. Even they still being stronger than normal weapons (1HKOing any normal mob at lower levels), you'll have some trouble against bosses and minibosses.

Installation Instructions 1. Download the Ancient Forge Mod 2. Extract the mod folder from the .rar file 3. Copy the folder and paste it in your mods folder 4. Have fun!

What lightsabers are available? •. Standard 1 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 1-handed; •. Standard 2 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 1-handed; •. Electrum Hilt (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 1-handed; •. Curved Hilt (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 1-handed; •. Iconic 1 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 2-handed; •. Iconic 2 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 2-handed; •. Iconic 3 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 2-handed; •. Iconic 4 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - 2-handed; •. Double-sided 1 (blue, green, yellow, red, purple, orange and black) - spear; •. Buster Lightsaber (it's a test one, so it's very OP. Blue only) - 2-handed.

What more? •. A new underground biome called "Focusing Crystal Cave" with custom backgrounds, liquids, grassmods and crystals! :D

Requests are more than welcome!

I am accepting not only weapon requests but armor ones too! I'm a huge Star Wars fan and I know how cool is it having a lot of Star Wars content to play with Starbound. So if there is anything you want me to do, I'm not a pixel artist (as you may see), but I can do something about. ^_^

Thank you!

And have good fun! I highly reccomend downloading other Star Wars mods present in the forum, they are pretty awesome!

If anyone finds any glitch or any unbalance on the weapons, please just tell me and I'll try to fix it ASAP.

A compact Star Wars-themed mod for Skyrim that lets you forge lightsabers and roleplay as a Jedi. With 782 endorsements and over 17,000 downloads, it's a niche but popular choice for fans of the franchise. Last updated in 2014, so it's an older mod with a dedicated following.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 782 endorsements and over 17k downloads.
  • Fills a specific niche for Star Wars fans in Skyrim.
  • Simple concept: forge lightsabers and be a Jedi.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2014, so it may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions.
  • No detailed feature list, so you're going in blind on what exactly the mod adds.
  • Potential conflicts with other weapon or crafting mods due to its age.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who are also Star Wars fans and want to wield a lightsaber without leaving Tamriel. If you're looking for a deep, feature-rich lightsaber mod with quests or custom animations, this might be too basic. Skip if you want modern polish or extensive customization.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's an older mod, make sure to check if it's compatible with your Skyrim version (Oldrim vs Special Edition).
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily install and uninstall if issues arise.
  • If you're using other crafting overhauls, load this mod after them to ensure the recipes appear correctly.
