Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 1st of Sun's Dawn and another very chilly predawn here on warm sands. Brrr, excuse please while the fires are stoked and fresh water is put to the boil...
Brew of the day is again Istanbul Espresso, because YUM!, and the biscuits are Verona. Checking the hot sheets we have 43 new with all the usual bimbos, himbos, patches and goofs. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa this day.
queenanne released Humble Beginnings - A Lightweight Class Mod as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83910
"Humble Beginnings is a class mod designed to embrace Skyrim’s freeform character building instead of fighting it." Ah'vrie is not surprised, this is better than most, but it's a very tall pile at this point.
IsaacMP released Anises Cabin Exterior and Interior Overhaul as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83983
"This is a little overhaul of Anises Cabin." An interesting first mod. The old cat is not thrilled with some of the clutter, and did you really have to leave a big hole in the roof if you're showing the old girl some love? The underground grotto and back door? Why not.
ConsolidatedSky the googly challenged released Craftable Guard Items.
Another for the pile, no link required
DarthBlender released Parallax Spell Impacts
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83935
"Adds complex parallax to Isoku's Deadly Spell Impacts mod." Ah'vrie is not sure about adding 3D damage to stonework with spells, only to have it vanish moments later? But if you can ignore that, the mod looks good.
Hein84... :steamfacepalm: What can the old cat say.
Pelts - Complex Parallax Occlusion
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83936
PASS! While the old cat applauds the "subtle" application of tessellation algorithms to simulate 3d ON A 2d UV MAP. Doing it wrong is just Sooo obvious. These are supposed to be fur pelts, not lidar map of the Andes mountains from orbit. This just looks wrong on so many levels. Your game your way...
Shaysjhyar released AW Men of Skyrim Replacers Pack
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83960
"The place to go for good looking males in Skyrim." And why not? Call it revenge of the eye candy bimbos. We needed a boy toy mod LOL Not bad really. Thanks Allison
dylvish1991 released Clothing for children-companions SE EN
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83950
"A collection of clothes for your children-companions, umbrellas (weapons), dolls (shields), fur coats, jackets and suits. More than 200 clothes and accessories." all shoved in a "magic" sack added to your inventory, because who cares about immersion :steammocking:
The only listed requirement is RS Children. This is version 1.6 with a release date of today. Ah'vrie guesses the older versions were all in Russian and not on the nexus. Lot's of credits... but one wonders about the permissions seeing as it wasn't mentioned.
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! :steamhappy:

Goooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Fredas the 3rd of Sun's Dawn and thank the divines the weekend is nigh. The blessed moons have set, and just a reminder they will be full Morndas so you better keep those silver weapons sharp and close. Anyway, excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the boil...
Brew of the day is Amaha awe Uganda, and the biscuits are Bordeaux. Checking the hot sheets we have 38 new Make that 44 new :steamfacepalm: More coffee needed. let's dive right in (before it gets bigger again)
furexarot released Hunterborn - Apothecary Patch as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84095
"Patch for the latest version of Apothecary with correct magnitudes for potions and poisons"
Kintsy released no more stupid dog. (and most good dog.) as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84080
"stops all stupid dog comments & most good dog comments. ESPFE" Unfortunately it doesn't make the dog followers in this game any less lame.
sandman099 released Skyrim Is My Player Home as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84069
"Adds basic crafting and storage chests to towns, villages and settlements that did not have any" Interesting... the mod "plops" down campsites with complete crafting (other than enchanting and alchemy) and includes cloud storage around the map so you don't need a bunch of player homes... Why not? Your game your way. Interesting first mod.
GroundAura released two today (:steamfacepalm: Another bloody framework? Oh joy!)
https://www.nexusmods.com/users/97658973?tab=user+files
"(KID) Object Categorization Framework" "(DAR) Compatibility Weapon Conditions for OCF" you'll have to read it. Too much to explain and the old cats head hurts.
Let's see... Mihail broke out his checks as a standalone addition to vanilla farms so Xtudo cleaned up the textures
Chicks- Mihail Monsters and Animals
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84110
Chicks - Optimized textures SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84114
(The old cat is not dissing the chicks mod, he's already using the textures as a Skytest replacer released ages ago. The Chicks mod adds spawns and we don't trust Mihail spawns)
XilaMonstrr added a couple more optimized textures as well
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... user+files
Rally's Torchbugs (High Poly)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84046
"Higher poly replacer for Torchbugs with ENB Light. Optional version with 4 wings available" Will probably need patching for Wearable lanterns, but they are kind of cute.
Skyland Noble Furniture by Skyking2020
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84057
"Complete texture overhaul for Noble Furniture, including SMIM textures." Not bad at all. TBH there's nothing here that would make me replace Gamwich, but Nice. We like choices
renthal311 released tanningrack001
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84062
"new mesh and textures, vanilla tanningrack replacement"
Ah'vrie is at a loss... An overly complex frame (that is also obviously unstable, don't hire this one as a carpenter) and in general looks worse than vanilla? Of course his last attempt at redoing the tanning rack wasn't so good either.
Renthals's tanning rack by Pfuscher
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/23189
And we'll finish up with WiZkiD taking the top slot again...
Atlantean Landscape -Shores-
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84092
"Coasts and rivers landscape textures replacer with ENB terrain complex parallax (2k and 4k options avaliable)." A bit rocky for an old cat's taste, but you can really see the difference when an experienced modder adds a "subtle" touch of tessellation. Very well done, and worth a couple of cookies. Wizkid rules.
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! :steamhappy:

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Goooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 4th of Sun's Dawn and wage slaves rejoice the weekend has arrived. The blessed moons will be full on Morndas and the goddess' crazy puppies are already stirring up trouble, so this one hopes you have taken an old cat's advice and are keeping those silver weapons honed and close. Anyway, it's time once again for Ah'vrie to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the ash pits are emptied and the fires rebuilt. You may want to cover your tankards for a bit. This can get a tad dusty... There, much better no? Ah'vrie likes to start the weekend with happy fires yes he does. It warms more than the room as his mother used to say. Now to compost the ash, scrub the kettles, draw fresh water, see what's ripe in the gardens, and put fresh water to the boil...
Brew of the day is Miami Espresso, and we'll bake fresh biscuits after Ah'vrie returns from the markets a little later. Checking the hot sheets we have 60 new with all the bimbos, himbos, accessories, patches and goofs we've come to expect. Let's see what catches the eyes of an old cat this day over a fresh cuppa... definitely another cuppa.
harrys5413 released Wizards are Good Seller as a second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84167
"Simple patch to use "Court Wizards Sell Expert Spells", "Court Wizards Sell Staves", and "Wizards Have Soul Gems SE" same time." requires all of the above plus the patch... How can this one argue with that. Have a cookie
TXTEC released Divergence - Compendium of Beasts - Animunculi as a second mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84148
"A 4K retexture for Animunculi." Not bad, have a cookie
He re's one for Ilja... pavelk released Updates to assorted maps for FWMF
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84112
"Fixes and improvements for most popular 3rd party maps for FWMF." If memory serves the old Imp/mage/merchant is using paper maps.
Lets see... Livelynightmare released four consistency patch mods today
https://www.nexusmods.com/users/1872172 ... files&BH=0
CH, Time Lost, Dwemer gates reset, and the second great war. The old cat nabbed the CH patch for RDO and Andromeda. Nice, have a cookie
coldsun1187 is still pumping out cookie cutter eye candy
https://www.nexusmods.com/users/9762372?tab=user+files
three more today
clioshand released Magicka Siphon - A Soulgem Roleplay Mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/67620
"Now you can extract magicka, not souls, to power armour and weapons." Ah'vrie calls this enchanting for wimps. Personally the old cat has no issues mining soul gems in blackreach and converting them to black gems in the soul cairn. He loves to use them on necromancers yes he does. This mod is strictly a few small dialog tweaks to aid your head cannon so good guys can enchant... your game your way.
AndrealphusVIII released Selfmade Potions Renamed
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84132
:steamfacepalm: The vanilla names are bad enough. Why would anyone intentionally make it worse? The old cat is waiting for someone to make a mod that allows the player to rename their self made potions the same way we "name" enchanted items. Anything less just makes it worse... PASS!
Xtudo released SkyTEST - Chicks - Model replacer and Better idle sounds SE-AE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84145
"Replaced the chicks from the SkyTEST mod with the lovely models made by Mihail" The old cat is currently using Xtudo's original version of this mod. Looks like this one is updating this morning. So be it. Downloaded along with Mihail's new models
Let's get to the good stuff...
DarthBlender released Majestic Mountains - Simplicity of Snow Patch
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84042
This is a biggie, and long overdue. "Changes the static objects in MajesticMountains.esp to use Simplicity of Snow's snow shaders for consistency." Instant Download, 2 cookies
Okay, this was an interesting day for mods all around. The old cat had to think about the top slot, but this one affects both players and authors of ENB presets in a very meaningful way. Sound the pets and summon the dancers we have a good one if unexpected.
ENB IMOD Separator by Doodlezoid
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84131
"SKSE plugin for ENB which separates IMODs from Imagespaces, fixing Night Eye and VFX without workarounds." That's correct folks. This corrects the underlying problem that has been breaking nighteye... Etc. since ENB's first came out. This is a 3 cookie mod and will soon be adopted by the likes of Rudy, et al.
"ENB IMOD Separator neutralises the base imagespace values, generally to 1.0, so that these values only modify the image as a result of IMODs. The original base Imagespace values are provided to ENB as separate values so can be treated independently of IMODs.
By default this plugin does not modify anything, an INI file to enable it must be provided by ENB presets, and the presets themselves must add additional code."
ENB IMOD Separator - Patches by supersurferdave
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84161
"Patches Doodlez new mod for various ENB Presets"
Culminated, Intrigued, Natural View Tamriel (NVT), Ominous, Semirealis, SkyrimSE Re-Engaged, and Touch Of Natural Tamriel (TNT).
These patches are just the beginning. The old cat fully expects this to become the defacto fix for all current ENB's and an essential add on just like ENB helper once the preset authors realize the implications. "small happy dance"
And that will do for today. The ale was delivered on time last evening. The fresh batch of mead is ready. We're serving slaughter fish scrambles for the early meal, and Ale braized sabrecat with twice baked garlic potatoes and sauteed carrots for the late meal. As always we'll have a hearty stew simmering for our Nord friends. Maybe we'll do a carrot potato and dragon stew tonight. The old cat has quite a stash of dragon steaks dry aging in the larder.

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Gooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Sundas the 5th of Sun's Dawn, and a quiet start to a hopefully lazy day. :steambored: Aahhhya! Excuse please, Ah'vrie didn't sleep very well last night. It must have been all the howling. Anyway, it's time to stoke the fires and draw fresh water to put to the boil... You really don't want to come between a tired grumpy cat and his coffee...
Ah'vrie grabbed today's roast with closed eyes. Let's see, not to bold, subtle chocolate and woody notes, smooth clean finish... Brew of the day is Tamuka mu Zimbabwe, and the old cat needs another. That will also pair well with the Apricot thumbprint biscuits in the oven.
Checking the hot sheets we have 64 new... :steamfacepalm: The old cat is glad he brewed a double. Might as well dive right in.

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 6th of Sun's Dawn and wage slaves lament, the weekend is over. Hide if you can or work if you must it's Morndas again. The blessed moons are also full tonight, so hopefully you headed an old cat's warnings. Anyway, it's time once again for Ah'vrie to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires are stoked and fresh water is put to the boil...
Brew of the day is Amaha awe Uganda, and trust that the old cat is brewing it strong. Our biscuits today are Zurich which should pair very well. Checking the hot sheets we have 50 new with all the usual jiggles, dangles, patches and goofs. Let's see what catches the eyes of an old cat over a fresh cuppa.
Moizoos released Seamless Cubemaps as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84331
"Upscaled vanilla cubemaps with better compression" Actually, in this case it didn't actually upscale anything, it just removed detail. Swing and a miss strike one, but keep trying.
Aquasound released The Hidden Cave - A Small Dungeon
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84332
"A tiny cave dungeon for only the most daring adventurers." Only their second mod. No rewards, and it's not included in any radiant quests... :steambored: thanks
Xtudo released SkyTEST - Hens - Mihail Monsters and Animals replacer SE-AE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84328
"Replaced the two new hens added by SkyTEST with the lovely AAA HD model made by Mihail." Goes well with the chick replacer, but the old cat is sticking with the variety he already modded into his game with better than nandos. Thanks
swefrida released BnP - Teeth Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84288
"A photorealistic meticulously crafted high quality teeth and mouth texture replacer that gives you the brightest smile ever." Very nice, but maybe a little too white and perfect for an old cats taste. Really nice work. We need a "less white" option.
Let's see... Hein84 is still totally over doing parallax. Their tessellation algorithms are so extreme that... just :steamfacepalm: Subtle and natural this one understands not. The old cat was hoping they would get better with time, but sadly this is not the case.
Vivid Landscapes - Complex Parallax Occlusion - Orc and Farmhouses
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84314
kirara386 released Reach Bush to Rosemary
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84295
"Mesh and texture replacement for reach bushes" Instant download for the old cat. this is one of her best replacers. 2 cookies
BasPeeters1 released Weathered Bars and Counters Retexture - 4K - 2K
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84306
"It's a retexture for the counters found in bars, shops and probably some other places. Matching bar stools are optional." Very nicely done. The old cat likes the no metal strip variant as structurally it serves no purpose. Another instant download and 2 cookies
inago777 released My enemy Forsworn NO esp
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84286
"There is no "esp". This mod is made only with Headmesh." Not bad, The old cat gets a chuckle that the "savages" are cleaner than the residents :steammocking: Maybe the women are a little to "pretty" but why not. Versions for named and un-named. Dled to see in game. Have a cookie.
And finally we'll finish up with another from Renthal311. mushrooms
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84298
It's not what you expect... "adds mushrooms to vanilla clover01 , new mesh new textures" and color the old cat confused, they are not harvestable, have no alchemy attributes. and the groupings are two large to ignore. The old cat is not sure where Ren is going with these textures. That is to say it's first rate work and yet totally ignoreable. Your game your way... PASS, again
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! :steamhappy:

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Gooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 7th of Sun's Dawn and a quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons were full last night and will be gibbous tonight so the goddess' crazy puppies should start to settle down tomorrow. Anyway, excuse please while the fires are tended and fresh water is put to the boil...
Brew of the day is Miami espresso, and the biscuits are classic oatmeal raisin. Checking the hot sheets we have 54 new with all the usual suspects. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa.
theecatt (no relation) released Sleep Spells SE as a first SSE mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84421
"Adds three new spells to the game that cause NPCs to lie down and fall asleep where they stand." The old cat doesn't usually bother with added spells, but these were seriously missing from the vanilla game. Finally mages have a no kill alternative. About time. 2 cookies
hangyshmangy released Mine with Notched Pickaxe - AOS as a first mod. welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84409
requires ElSopa HD - Luxurious Unique Pickaxes SE. A little ostentatious for old cats but why not?
SiRiUs1503 released Jewelry Collection as a first SSE mod. Welcome

BecomingNplus1 released Detailed NPCs - Jewelry Collection for NPCs (SPID)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84412
"Equips rings and amulets from 'Jewelry Collection' to NPCs. Highly configurable to include or exclude any NPC." Some one likes those rings
brailefurtess released Temporary Followers Keep Their Distance
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84392
"Increases the distance at which temporary quest NPCs follow the Player." Hey, if it keeps Maurice from climbing up the players arse on the way to the eldergleem it get's an old cats vote for mod of the year LOL 2 cookies
JechtShotMK2020 released Stormcloaks Outlaw Spellcasting...
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84396
This one doesn't know the difference between a title and a description. You'll have to read the page. It's a sound concept for a lore based scarcity mod. Why not.
Let's see... mattski123 released Choose Your Starting Skills - Custom Classes
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84404
Misleading title, all this does is reorder the selection menu to save you a little scrolling at startup. It does not institute any classes.
markuskarttunen1 released Markarth LOD Unlock
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84375
"Simple ESP to make sure Markarth worldspace uses Tamriel lod objects - Results in better LODs. Obviously ment for DynDOLOD 3 users. Nice, have a cookie
Let's get to the good stuff...
Skyking2020 released Skyland Common and Upper Furniture
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84379
"Total texture overhaul of common and upper furniture with a few extras like counters, bars, stools, and wooden chairs" The furniture looks good, but the old cat prefers the bars and stools from yesterdays "Weathered Bars and Counters Retexture"
MystiriousDawn released The Omnibus - Terrain Complex Parallax
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83011
"This is a collection of all of the terrain parallax textures I have released in one easy download. Covering all the terrain in base vanilla Skyrim with high quality textures."
The file size is telling... 1K is 100 meg, 4K is 1.4 gig WOW
wizkid34 released Atlantean Landscape -Rocks and Dirt-
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84425
"Rocks and dirt landscape textures replacer with ENB terrain complex parallax (2k and 4k options avaliable)" And looks great as well.
Wiz has a very subtle hand at the parallax settings as does MD. Both of these authors are making an old cat consider upgrading to parallax.
And we're going to finish up with an unusual mod of the day, and one that needs testing, serious testing... Sound the trumpets
LonelyKitsune released KreatE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/83757
"SKSE plugin that allows real-time editing of various (visual) aspects of Skyrim from within the game using a non-destructive multi-preset system." requires her Universal EditorID Cache along with Address library. You're realy going to want to read the page...
"Kitsuunes (visual) real-time Editor (or short KreatE) gives you the power to adjust a plethora of parameters from within Skyrim and save them into or load them from presets. This process is non-destructive and leaves your esp/esm/esl files as is. You can also switch between different presets instantly from within the game."

Checking the hot sheets we have 35 new and believe it or not some don't even have a cup size :steammocking: Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa. Definitely a fresh cuppa. Maybe a double. Fuzzy headed Ah'vrie was out with friends last night.
L4zyWalrus released Eclipse Mage Outfit - Fixed 1st Person as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84616
"A simple modification of nukanekom's otherwise awesome Eclipse Mage Outift, fixing the 1st person view by adding the needed 1st person models to the armor."
Ah'vrie won't judge, but why if this is a first person fix is the only image third person?
Zzyxzz released Third Person First Person Aiming
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84587
"Allows you to switch from third to first person while aiming with (bow and magic) and switches you back, when you release the aim button." Ah'vrie guesses some people must actually play in third person? Ah'vrie plays as himself.
Ryn2g released Ryn's Kynesgrove Burial Mound
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84625
Makes no sense at all but your game your way. PASS
DrPharmDawg released Masterly - Intuitive Skill and Tree Integration (SkyRem - Misti) AE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84579
Shaun re-released The SkyRem take on a Skill and Perk Tree Overhaul. Only this version also overhauls the perk trees... Yeah, you're going to want to read the entire mod page. This is not a casual overhaul. Expect patching hell for this Ordinator wanna be.
Lets see... zxamonxz released Amon - Rustic Daedra shockparticles Fix
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84591
"Improved the shockparticles texture of RUSTIC DAEDRA - Special Edition to get a better visual of this effect" Thanks, that did look awful. Have a cookie
HasphatAntobolis released Talos Statue Parallaxed
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84599
"Parallaxes the Talos Statue" and not even the updated statue with the great sword, just the vanilla model? Oookay. Thanks
linnbrown released Ansilvund Telepathic Voice Improved
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84613
"Adds some reverb to the telepathic voice of Lu'ah Al-Skaven" And why not. Thanks
And we'll finish up with Better Juniper Texture by kirara386
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84615
"Juniper texture replacement for Vanilla, SMIM, and 3D Junipers." And nicely done yet again. Downloaded to see in game. Have another cookie.
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! :steamhappy:
Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Fredas the 10th of Sun's Dawn and thank the divines the weekend is nigh. It is a crisp, yet quiet predawn here on warm sands now that the winds have died down.

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Goooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 11th of Sun's Dawn and wage slaves rejoice the weekend has arrived. :steambored: Ahhhya! Excuse please, Ah'vrie was up late gathering rare ingredients and over slept. But the blessed moons have set and it is once again time to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the ash pits are emptied and the fires rebuilt. You may want to cover your tankards for a bit, this can get a tad dusty...
There, much better no? Ah'vrie always like to start the weekend with happy fires. Now to compost the ash, tend the garden, scrub the kettles and draw fresh water to put to the boil. You there, yes you, stop staring at the kettles. Know you nothing of kitchen magic? Ah'vrie needs his coffee. Brew of the day is Capetown Envivo Lungo, and the biscuits are Toll house, are rather will be in about 11 minutes. Yum!
Checking the hot sheets we have 38 new with lots of jiggles, dangles, patches and goofs. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa...
bobbyclue released Name Your Pet
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84665
"Allows you to rename pet followers through dialogue. A menu to type out the new name will appear when the dialogue option "I'll call you..." is selected." This one gets the Awww! award. Can we just name them all Stupid Dog? :steammocking: Have a cookie
markuskarttunen1 released Falmervalley Fog n Leaf Remover
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84644
"Removes the weird and obstructive fog/leaf camera effect in certain parts of Falmervalley" Similar to their Dimmer Apocrypha Smoke mod which the old cat also uses.Downloaded for testing. Thanks
Nether's Fantabulous Frea
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84661
"A complete overhaul to Frea including greatly expanded dialogue, quest/location awareness, comments on player actions, npc interaction, combat enhancements and abilities, non-combat bonuses, sculpted face, multitude of appearance options, quest content, sexlab/flowergirls integration and much more! A Frea overhaul like you've never seen before." Looks like Nether's been busy. The old cat might Download this for testing.
Let's see... stuxjr released Nerf Paralysis(SPID)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84656
"Using SPID to give random immunity to paralysis"
Why do players all think we "need protecting" from the vanilla exploits THEY choose to over use :steamfacepalm: Grow up and stop spamming paralysis ruins Sheesh. PASS
We'll finish up with two that caught the eye today.
SkyTEST - Realistic Animals and Predators - Lite by EdmondNoir (with permission)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84539
"No world edits, all bugs are fixed, light weight, highly compatible, still no scripts, and no new animals only improved vanilla animals" The old cat likes the concept, and will test this, but he is already missing the geese, pigs, and all the babies. Ah'vrie may ask if they can fix the original version. But thanks
SkyTEST - Realistic Animals and Predators - Patches by nexusbla18
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... mods/84683
Forwards the AI from SkyTEST to the following mods:
Otters SE
SkyBirds (affects farm chickens)
Birds of Skyrim (affects chickens)
Savage Wolves and Feral Foxes
Mammoth Expansion - Mihail Monsters and Animals (If you use SkyTEST Lite)
Compatible with Skytest Lite... Ah'vrie is using Savage wolves, birds and flocks, and Otters... Guess the old cat will be checking out this patch as well.
And that will do for today. Our new ale casks were delivered on time last night, and the fresh batch of mead is ready so drink up. We're serving mudcrab scrambles for the early meal. Ale braised sabercat for the late meal, and as always we'll have a good hearty stew simmering all day for our Nord friends.
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! :steamhappy:
