[EARLY ACCESS ENDED] Early Access Now Live – Ashe v1.1 + SDA 4.2

June 11 Update: Early access has ended, and the public mod has been released! If you were on an early access build, I'd still recommend you'd update to the latest public release so you have the latest bugfixes. 😊More early access coming soon, including a beta test for the Trueblood Serana replacer physics hair!

June 02 Update: New Ashe bugfixes released! For SDA (other than a couple of custom conversation bugs) everything seems to be all clear. Stay tuned as we're on the final stretch until public release!

For Ashe bugfixes, just install the new version on top of the old one! Same goes with Bethnet!Changelog from last build, EA Build 02

Removed unneeded files from archive to save space

Buffed mini-boss health

Buffed Rolen health

All of the sound effects (so new audio recordings, etc…) mistakenly weren’t packaged in the last release (confirmed issue for PC, not 100% sure for Xbox on earlier releases). This should be fixed now.

Added more script conditions for Ashe’s auto teleport so it doesn’t happen during the flashback sequences and during cutscenes

Hey everyone! Both Ashe v1.1 and Serana Dialogue Add-On 4.2 are now up in early access. 🎉

PC builds: attached below (FOMOD still says 1.0.7 but that's for current public release. Ignore the version number!)

Quick heads-up on documentation

I’m on the road right now, so I haven’t had time to write a full patch-note deep dive. For now:

Ashe v1.1 – what started as a mini-update turned into a sizeable expansion: deeper back-story scenes, a re-written Chapter 6 with a mini-boss, and 500+ new lines.

SDA 4.2 – headline feature is Daegon banter (works with either version of the follower) plus nearly 1000 custom-conversation lines - the final batch of patron requests.

Until I can post full docs, you can find outline details for both updates on my website; everything should play intuitively in-game.For Ashe, new saves not required, even when updating from the dev build! For SDA, recommended to use saves that had the WIP SDA dev build, as that version was still very much WIP. Users can update to SDA 4.2 early access from SDA 4.1.1 (latest public version on Nexus/Bethesda.net).

Looking ahead

Pre-production is already underway on the long-awaited Serana × Ashe banter. Kerstyn and I are planning to release it, along with other content ahead of SDA 5.0 as part of smaller interim updates to make the SDA sendoff more doable (not just one huge update chunk). I’ll share specifics after this EA cycle wraps.

I’m travelling for a short break, so replies may be slower, but I’ll check in whenever I can. Thanks as always for the support—enjoy the new builds!
