Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 4th of Sun's Height and another sultry quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons were all but invisible as the new moons are on Fredas, but it is once again time for this one to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the boil...
Our brew of the day is Miami espresso and the biscuits are Tate's lemon cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 51 new mods with all the usual jiggles, dangles, patches, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa.
ItsAlways710 released 710's Markarth Livable Abandoned House
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/123276
"Makes the Abandoned House (House of Horrors) home in Markarth (slightly) livable by converting containers to safe storage and adding crafting stations." Thanks, the old cat is not one for killing priests, but your game your way.

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/123306
"Navmesh and idle marker fixes for Clef's Dragon Bridge Enhanced" We don't normally cover patches, but it's nice to see ClefJ's work getting some love. Thanks Wiz, still the best
Who says you can't mod a mod LOL
nesslowland released General Merchant for Dawnstar - The Pale Capital
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/123309
"Dawnstar - The Pale Capital is an amazing mod, but is sadly lacking in general merchants. It does however add several buildings that were ripe to be repurposed. For example, a building called The Far North Trading Post up on Tide hill." Thanks. nice addition.
Pieter82 released Higher Poly Vanilla Gildergreen
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/123263
"Higher poly vanilla meshes for the Gildergreen tree. Mesh replacer only, no Plugin / ESP." Compatible with Gildergreen regrown. A subtle upgrade, but noticeable. Thanks
Somebody actually remade the oldrim mod 'Finally Real Boats' from scratch. That was one of the funniest, buggiest mods the old cat ever played with...
Vuszu released Real Boats In Skyrim
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/123321
"Have you ever wanted to sail the rivers, lakes and seas of skyrim? Have you ever wanted to travel to those glaciers in an immersive way without freezing to death? Do you often use your horse as a boat?"
This works by attaching a boat model to a horse, And it does work, only the boat doesn't 'know' it has to stay in the water which is when things can get roll on the floor funny. Row off a waterfall, or up a mountain. The boat doesn't care LOL. Honestly if you use this in a serious RP fashion it works fine, even if summoning the boat is not exactly immersive.
And finally our mod of the day. Sound the trumpets and summon the dancers!
Ascend - Hidden Peaks of Skyrim by jayserpa
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/120802
"Climb your way up the 10 hidden mountain peaks of Skyrim. Let the wind guide you to the summit. Meditate on top of the highest spots of Skyrim to become one with the land."
The pinnacle of JS mods (Sorry couldn't resist) You'll really want to read the entire mod page. There's even a best photo contest with a giveaway. Meditating on the peaks buffs resistences, reduces stress if you also use 'Stress and fear' The list goes on. Lots to read.
Another 2 cookie mod from Jay
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!
