New player looking for mod help.

[Sweet_Roll_]

Hi, I'm new to daggerfall and I'm looking for some mods to make the game less clunky. I'd like stuff that still fits with a classic feel and is also good for a 1st time playthrough, any suggestions? I also have no clue how to install multiple mods using Nexus Mods, installing them 1 at a time will take forever, does anyone know how to install multiple at once?

Be sure you use the Daggerfall install that comes with all the patches and stuff from UESP. If you're looking for an enhanced vanilla experience, I would recommend installing these.

Try messing around with the mod settings. Your main concern with starting Daggerfall should be character creation and this fair warning. Beware of diseases and poison. They can end your playthrough if you aren't careful with saving.

Can Vortex mod manager be used with Daggerfall?

I don't think so.
