Modding on the Spectrum

Gooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 28th of Sun's Height and a very quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and 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 Kahawa ya Congo, and the biscuits are lemon cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 45 new mods from the usual eclectic sources. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa.

A quick shoutout to dBottle for Changelog Generator for Modlist Authors
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155643
"A tool to compare modlist text files and generate a changelog markdown of added and removed mods between updates." Useful for validating changes to modlists. Thanks

Erthanese released Extended Translucency
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/150755
"Realistic rendering of thin fabric and other translucent materials." Specifically for CS. The 'edge effect' is more realistic. Thanks

Jelidity released Stalhrim Hornless Light Helmet
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155605
"Adds a hornless variant of the Stalhirm Light Helmet. Available integrated standalone or as a mesh replacer for the original horned helmet." Thanks for offering it as a standalone and a replacer. This one gets a cookie.

cjmstate released Ave's Amulet of Mara 3BA SMP Physics
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155635
"SMP physics 3BA body slide files for Avebrave Amulet of Mara." Thanks, this one will wait for the AIO ;-)

And finally These last two mod mods, which is okay. We love choice

Elysium Estate - More Idle Marker by SUNNY333456
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/116621
"Add more idle marker to Elysium Estate, so NPCs can sandbox with the environment more." their first non requiem patch. Thanks

ClefJ's Morthal - SwordMaster's Cut
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155723
"Small tweaks and changes to the already amazing mod by ClefJ."

Basically swapped out custom shields for paintings. Why not? Thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Gooooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 27th of Suns Height and a perfect lazy predawn here on warm sands. A day for late meals, catching up on chores, and spending time with the family... Who are we kidding? Thar B dragons about! Anyway, the blessed moons have set, and 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 flame...

Our brew of the day IsIstanbul Espresso and the biscuits are chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 38 new mods. Mostly jangles and patches. Lets see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa or two.

Ghoules3000 released No More Survival Loadscreens
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155588
"Removes (almost) every survival mode loadscreen tip."

They're using mods that invalidate the tips, so removed them and decided to share. Thanks

braxusx released Leave My Horse Alone
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155549
"Prevents many enemies from attacking your horse. Among other things."

Basically makes all horses friendly to all factions. This would be fine as it's the same system used by both CH, and IH, however it also makes all horses essential, not report crimes, won't trigger your stealth meter, all horses are unaggressive and flee combat. The old cat prefers a solution like CH that let's you choose the settings for your horses, but not alter every horse in the game. Thanks

ItzIvy released Happy Little Tree - High Quality Ivy Replacer Addon
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155583
Adds HQ ivy around the base of two tree meshes. Unfortunately it does not look natural at all, and it's an immediately obvious 'repeat' that draws your eye. If it didn't have such an abrupt 'top' and was hand placed on a few trees it would be completely different. Added to the mesh... Hard pass on this one, but thanks

Lydia by Nela
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155555
"A visual replacement for Whiterun's housecarl. She has her own equipment and new skills."

Where to begin... The facial sculpting is beautiful. Dark blue eyes, freckles, bed hair. What's not to like? Only she's much to young, and looks like she's never seen combat, and doesn't fit the voice. This is someone you would date in high school, not someone to take into battle. Beautiful work though.

cjmstate released Ave's Amulet of Arkay SMP Physics
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155571
"SMP physics body slide files for Avebrave Amulet of Arkay."

This is the second Ave necklace to receive SMP physics from this author. The old cat doesn't quite understand the need, but then the old cat never plays in third person. It might make a difference. Thanks.

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept and mopped. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Gooooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 26th of Sun's Height and wage slaves rejoice the weekend has arrived. The blessed moons have set, the blessed moons have set, the paths are closed, and it is once again time for this one to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the ash pits are emptied, the vents are cleaned and the fires rebuilt. This can get a tad dusty so you may want to cover your tankards for a bit...

There, much better no? Ah'vrie always likes to start the weekend off with happy fires. They warm more than the room as his mother liked to say. Now to put fresh water to the flame while this one composts the ash, tends the garden, and scrubs the kettles. The life of an innkeeper is not very glamorous, but satisfying.

Our brew of the day is Umatima wa Uganda, and the biscuits will be fudge brownie cookies in a bit, the ovens are still preheating. Checking the hot sheets we have 34 new mods. Mostly jangles, outfits, patches and pointy sticks, but lets see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa shall we?

synax1337 released Less Intrusive Rain for True Storms as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155488
"I always disliked the rope like rain from True Storms, but I love all other features of the mod. So I made myself a replacer for the rain textures per hand, and thought maybe others like them too. Very simple mod, no ESP, just textures."

This is the heart and soul of modding, and it even looks good. Well done, have a cookie

Syllux released two Khajiit Yllux mods today (nsfw)
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Syllux/mods?gameId=1704
Retexture - CBBE 3BA, and Overlays - CBBE 3BA

You'll want to read the retex mod page carefully. It basically creates a custom body, and has requirements. What makes it interesting is the body is boringly bland by intent. When this one saw the images for the fist time they looked 'black and white' They aren't. The overlay mod has the retexture as a requirement, and allows you to choose your own pattern. Some are interesting. Worth a look. Thanks

Thrillvilled released Enhanced 1 To 1 Normal Maps
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155369
"normal maps for Skyrim SE, generated using a simple Python script to create a simple 1:1 normal map based on the the original diffuse textures by calculating the X and Y components."

The old cat doesn't want to poke, but these are not "significantly improved" In fact they make vanilla look good. Why would a cloth hood shine? Hard pass on this. it's Just wrong

nakano52 released Portable Candles
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155525
"Add portable candles that can be used as a substitute for a torch."

Interesting concept, but this one has never actually tried to walk with a candle obviously... It doesn't work. That was why lanterns were invented. Kudos for the effort, but no. Even in a fantasy world you'd never be able to keep them lit outside, and the light output would be useless in a dungeon. Maybe for inside the house? Still we love choice. Thanks.

There is no mod of the day today. We'll finish up with another OIF based mod

Dynamic Inn Fireplace - OIF by kuroishitam
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155492
This mod will make fireplace at inns change dynamically, it will turn on at night then it will turn off in the morning.

This one obviously doesn't use complex lighting overhauls with dynamic shadows, but that's okay. Most of the inns in the old cat's game would be too dark to see the tables. Should work okay with vanilla lighting templates (where nothing is dark)

Your game your way. Most of the customers in the old cat's inn like to see what they are eating. Besides, in Skyrim it's also about warming the room.

And that will do for today. The Ale was delivered on time, and the new batch of mead is ready, so drink up. We'll be serving mudcrab scrambles for the early meal, and ale braised sabercat with twice baked garlic potatoes and sauteed carrots for the late meal. As always there will be a kettle of hearty stew simmering all day for those that need to ward the chill. Have a seat by the fires and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Goooooood morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. If it Fredas the 25th of Sun's height and thank the divines the weekend is nigh. The blessed moons have again begun their journey to full, and we hope the goddess enjoyed her rest. The hunters are nursing their hangovers, and 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 flame...

Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo, and the biscuits are ginger. Checking the hot sheets we have 35 new from the usual eclectic sources. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa...

First a few quick shout outs... Lackryhmo patched biginners shack, with Riverwood falls
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155473

upp1er released Ancient Knowledge Bug Fix which has been part of the patch since oldrim
No link needed but thanks

ackadian001 released Enchanter's Tower Not for old cats but it looks like they had fun
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155451

Okay, lets get to the good stuff...

nyaaantama released Simple Sit for Followers as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155459
"When you sit, your follower will automatically sit on the closest chair nearby. Simple and immersive!" Currently works with one follower, multi follower support is planed. This is scripted and requires Papyrus extender. It's a first mod so testing is needed, but this is definitely cookie worthy. Thanks.

Snow Covered Lumber Mills by Pieter82
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155100
"Adds snow shaders to lumber mills located in snowy areas using Base Object Swapper."

Looks good, Only covers the Pale, and Morthal. A small nit to pick, the old cat wishes it was just the roofs. Including the ramp and floor is a bit much especially next to clear roads. Still a very noticeable improvement over vanilla. Thanks Pieter

Gray Cowl of Nocturnal World Map Fix by wSkeever
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155390
"The Gray Cowl of Nocturnal's World Map only looks as intended for users of Community Shaders. With Engine Fixes, the map is completely broken. This mod fixes these issues."

Yet another issue with CS fixed. Thanks

chilloucik released Deer Reworked - Ultimate
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155433
"An ultimate rework of deers, elk, reindeers, whatever you call them."

LOL, okay, this is a mash up of other authors assets that have open permissions. The old cat likes the choices made. These look great together. The old cat is currently using Edmond's Nature series for white tail and black tail deer... I feel a patch coming on ;-) Worth a look... nice mashup

We'll finish up today with a great concept... Unrealized.

Let Cats Hunt Rats - Urban Wildlife for Skyrim by Restartitius
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/150994
"A mod to train the cats of Skyrim to hunt down the rats. And also to actually add animals into the cities and towns of Skyrim, it badly needs proper"

I'm not poking, it's a totally valid concept, only the modded house cats are smaller that the sewer rats (Though TBH the pic of a saber cat stalking a skeever was cute) Love the concept, not the execution. It needs mod added mice... little ones.

And that will do for today. he fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Gooooooood morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Turdas the 24th of Sun's height and another sticky predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and 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 flame...

Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Napoli, and we'll be baking fresh biscuits a little later when Ah'vrie returns from the market. Checking the hot sheets we have 27 new from the usual sources. Lots of jangles and pointy sticks as always. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa.

NaughtyMolly released Craft and Temper Wench Outfit as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155377
"Now, you can craft and temper the wench outfit. Go to a tanning rack, use 7 leather and 5 leather stripes, and go on."

in hindsight this was the mod of the day LOL

DaleTheeMagnificent released DTM's Ratway Refuge as a first SSE mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155356
"A player home set inside the Ratway Vaults! Fully furnished with a quest to hire a blacksmith and have him set-up shop in your home. Earn gold and gain access to 'Well-honed' bladed weapons" Sorry, the entrance is through an old well, and you're going to hang a blacksmith sign on it... Oookay. Umm, Thanks

lilycake released Dwemer Interiors Improved
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155348
"Enhances and diversifies Dwemer dungeons with unique assets, improved clutter placement, new miscellaneous items, and more, giving each area a purpose to the long-lost Dwemer." Thanks, treasure rooms and rugs? Oookay. Moving right along.

GeminiVoid released Apocryphal Archives
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155394
"Recover Apocryphal secrets from your foes and trade them to Hermaeus Mora in exchange for power."

Murder people for their memories... How does that work? PASS

And that's about it. The fires aree stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Goooooooood morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 23rd of Sun's Height and another sticky predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons will be new tonight, and the hunters have been at their drink and stories since sundown. At least the celebration is not on the weekend this time. A liver or two might just be sparred. Anyway, time for this one to tens the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...

Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Napoli, and the biscuits are Ginger. Checking the hot sheets we have 34 new from the usual eclectic sources. Let's dive straight in over a fresh cuppa or two.

Neumeria released Subtle Restoration Healing
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155336
"Makes non-concentration healing spells a bit more interesting and exciting."

Why can't an author just come out and say I nerfed the three most powerful healing spells, and made them work over time? At least it isn't blanket overhaul, and does still include a small initial healing, but the overall total amounts have been reduced. Thanks.

En1maGG released the first 7 of their 'Nyrified' NPC-Skypatcher series.
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/En1maGG/mods?gameId=1704
Basically re-issuing other NPC overhauls with a skypatched variant. So basically all of the current 'The Face Sculpter' overhauls plus Bijin Redux. Thanks

Kat's Teldryn Sero replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/149096
Katschaba did a nice job on Sero, Worth a look and a cookie. Thanks

Miggyluv's Eyes
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155332
"A handcrafted set of fantasy/realistic eye textures designed to blend seamlessly into the world of Skyrim." A few of the colors are interesting. The iris' are a bit bland. Worth a look. Thanks

chilloucik released Troll HD
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155323
"HD texture rework of all variants of trolls." And another beautiful bit of upscalling. So ugly their beautiful. The old cat is waiting for the all in one, but these will probably replace my current texts for my next game. Vanilla but better.

And we'll finish up with Bare Chested Male Khajiit Textures by katiexmongo
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155354
"Now that Gimp supports dds files I've been going to town editing textures for FREE (bye bye expensive photoshop) and thus helping me learn a lot and improving my skills. Here is my latest creation!" "All of my male textures with bare chests"

Very studly, and worth a look Thanks

And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are... Where's that bloody mop? We-B-Open!

Goooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 22nd of Sun's Height and a sticky predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and 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 flame.

Our brew of the day is from India, and the biscuits are chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 40 new, mostly jangles and patches with the odd pointy stick. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye this day over a fresh cuppa... (Not a lot)

Gigabyteguy released two goof mods today. An eating spell book animation, and watermelon sugar, which would have been a nice treat to add to the game if it didn't play music when you eat it. Pass but thanks? It's going to be one of those mornings LOL

Misty Grove House by skulldilocks
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155226
"A house tucked away in Sanguine's Misty Grove, to which you can return at any time"
Your game your way, careful you don't end up married to a goat. Nice shack

Women of Riverwood Replacer CC666
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155245
Stretched necks, shrunken heads, and too young. I'm sure it will get plenty of downloads. Thanks

Subdivide and Smooth - Canis Root
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155290
"New models and textures for Canis Root. High poly, low pixelation." Much improved over vcanilla, Downloading the 2K version to endorse. They are currently running through their 'unfinished projects folder' Can't wait to see what else is hidden in there.

The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Goooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 21st of Sun's Height and wage slaves lament the weekend is over. Hide if you can or work if you must, it's Morndas again. The blessed moons have long set and it past time for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stokes and fresh water is put to the flame...

Our brew of the day is still Roma It was already open, Morndas, shut it. Later for biscuits. Ah'vrie needs to visit the markets. Checking the hot sheets we have 23 new, but have no fear, there's still enough jangle to stay the ghost of DJ Red... ? Oh, long story, Ask Ah'vrie another time.

AnDE42 released Eleidon's Ward Modding Resources as their first mod. Welcome.
"Low poly model, Substance Painter project and Zbrush project." Thanks for sharing.

DoomMaster10913 released Blue Moon Sugar as a tribute to Breaking Bad...
No link for you, Drugs R bad M'kay ;-)

Gremli's Riverwood House
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155207
The old cat's not a big fan of the bridge at water level, but the cabin is cute. Hope the basement doesn't flood. ;-)

ValArt hipoly clover (SE)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155237
highly replacement of "Clover01" Nice replacer, have a cookie

Instant download, Nabbed the 2k version though. In areas where clover is used there tends to be a lot of it, so caution is advised with 4k and weaker rigs.

HSF Male Furniture Idles by hanshotfirst01
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155228
"Random OAR/DAR male furniture animation pack. Bar stool animations, wall and rail lean animations, and enough ambient swagger to make your NPCs look like they’ve got unresolved emotional arcs."

You know... It's about bloody time. This one can't remember the last time he has seen random male idles. 2 cookies This may be a unique mod, or the memory is finally failing

And we'll finish up on a pseudo controversial note

Snow Elf Dialogue by Alesandren
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155222
"Adds immersive, lore-friendly, fully-voiced, race-aware dialogue for ancient Falmer/snow elf player characters across Skyrim’s quests, including the intro, Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, and Dawnguard DLC. Features both unique custom lines and expanded use of existing elf-related vanilla dialogue applied to snow elves."

Well not really controversial. The author used spliced lined where ever possible, and filled in the gaps with AI. A lot of thought went into this, even if it is a nitch audience. This one gets a cookie and the top spot. It's only their third mod. Who knows, they could be the next JaySerpa

And that will do for today. The fores are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 20th of Sun's Height and a quiet dawn here on warm sands. it is time once again for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...

our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Roma, and the biscuits are classic sugar cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 27 new mods. Time for a fresh cuppa, and let's see if anything catches an old cat's eye that doesn't have a cup size.

FlyJeremy released Handy Decoration Morthal-Moorside Inn as their second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155147
"A lightweight interior overhaul to Moorside Inn in Morthal." Not sure what makes it handy. Just some very minor clutter changes to the interior. Thanks.

upp1er released Fortify One-Handed - Dagger
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155189
"In the original game the Fortify One-Handed effect does not work on daggers. This mod makes the effect works on daggers. Specifically, it modifies Perk -> PerkSkillBoosts -> One-Handed Modifier, adding WeapTypeDagger condition"

Ah'vrie will point out to the cheap seats that this is not a fix, nor was it an oversight or a bug. This was a choice by the devs, which becomes obvious when you look at the dagger specific perks in the stealth tree (15x damage with the perk) If you need fortified as well you should be gaming more and cheating less ;-) Your game your way. Pass

Lux - Fantabulous Lighting Templates and Patches by Kulharin
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155182
"Additional lighting templates for distinct, rare and unique dungeon environments. Also some Lux cell patches and patch replacers."

Just what LUX needs... More patches Thanks

kuroishitam released Time Bomb - OIF
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155198
"This mod adds Dwemer time bomb that you can create and plant to stealthily assasinate target. Enjoy!" 60 second fuse, but can be adjusted in the .json. This could be fun. Thanks

Rage4556 released Wood Chopping Sound Replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155179
"Adds a more natural and not-so-sharp sound of wood chopping in three variations. Simply replaces the three existing wood chopping sounds."

Frankly the old cat never had an issue with the vanilla sound. There is a slight mismatch in the timing (in the video) The axe split the log a split second before you hear the effect. We love choice. Thanks

We'll finish up with Not Bigger Just Better - Windhelm by matahah
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155190
"This is my vision of Windhelm, combining Dawn of Skyrim, JK's Skyrim, Spaghetti's Cities - Windhelm, Snowy AF Windhelm, Little Touches for Windhelm and A Few Trees in Windhelm with an AIO Patch to create a perfect (for me at least) lightweight Windhelm Overhaul."

Add it in the pot and we have roadkill strew. Make sure to check the requirements, all five 'master' modsneed to be installed with their plugin's disabled as resources. Some of the clutter is ridiculous like scathcraw growing out of the rock floors and a baby netch? ...Okay

And that will do for today, the fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept and mopped. Enjoy what remains of the weekend. We-B-Open!

Goooooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 19th of Sun's Height and wage slaves rejoice, the weekend has arrived. It's another sticky predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons are waning through the final crescents and will be new again on Tirdas. For now though, it's time for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the ash pits are emptied, the vents cleared, and the fires rebuilt. Ah'vrie always likes to begin the weekend with happy fires. As his mother used to say when he was but a cub, "They warm more than the room" She is missed... There, much better no? Let's put some fresh water to the flame while Ah'vrie finished tidying up...

Our brew of the day is from Indonesia, and the biscuits are classic sugar cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 47 new mods, from the usual eclectic sources. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa.

A quick shoutout to passerandloser for releasing Lorefriendly--JeffyJay's Spell Compendium
"I just modify Phantom Phase,Resurrect,unlock as illusion spell." Thanks. This is their second mod, but flagged suspicious so no link.

This next one by Patrorex is for under the bonnet
MO2 Conflict Manager - Manage and Move Overwritten Mods
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155040
"Safely frees up disk space by moving overwritten conflict files in Mod Organizer 2 modlists."

The old cat understands the use / need, but honestly when you get to this point it's time to start looking at a bigger and faster drives. This is a very questionable solution for a gamer, but if you need it you need it. Thanks

littlehand6 released four, plus a resource file today
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/littlehand6/mods?gameId=1704
LH's honeyside, Vlindrel hall, Riverwood shack, and Karth River Boat. Thanks

chilloucik released Husky HD
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155115

LOL, double edge sword. The detail on the husky's DG armor looks great, The god awful vanilla fur looks even worse now that you can clearly see how bad it is. Just poking, it's definitely an improvement. Now it they only weren't so annoying and stupid

Koralina's Aesthetics - SMP Hair Recolors
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/154401
"4 Recolor options (cyber, pastel, dark, grayscale) for each Hair & Wig in CoralineKoralina's SMP Hair Collection! FOMOD Installation. Works with Hph, CotR, and UBE. ♡" Thanks, An all in one resource mod might be better, but thanks.

RedguardDiaspora released Lucien Flavius Refined
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155106
"CotR Replacer for Lucien" Gnewna will probably beat me up for this, but this character fits the voice as well as the original, if not better. Beautifully sculpted. I find this overhaul fitting. And I'm sure I'll be in trouble for saying so LOL. Have a cookie

And finally we'll finish up with another overhaul of an overhaul...

JH People NPC Cosmetic Surgery by sidearmf93
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/155104
"This is a reworked version of the NPC overhaul JH People NPC Cosmetic Surgery."

"I merged all the patches and made a bunch of edits as there was quite a bit of blackface going on. This mod replaces 549 NPCs including generic NPCs such as bandits, guard and Thalmor. I'd recommend using EasyNPC to mix and match appearances."

Not a lot of pics to go from, and no before / after any edits, so sack of salt on this one, and it certainly needs testing in game. Another 'young and pretty' overhaul, but it doesn't 'seem' totally over the top supermodel glam. Thanks

The ale was delivered on time last night, and the new batch of mead is ready so this one hopes you are all very thirsty. We're serving slaughterfish steak and eggs for the early meal. The late meal will have to wait for this one to return from the markets a little later. As always there will be a kettle of stew simmering all day for those that prefer.

The fores are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept and mopped. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!
