Modding on the SpectrumGooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 7th of Hearthfires, and wage slaves rejoice the weekend has arrived. 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 ash pits are emptied, the fires are rebuilt, and fresh water is put to the boil....
Our brew of the day is from India, and the biscuits are Sweet Loren's sugar cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 31 new mods. Mostly jiggle and patches. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa this day.
Kahimi4 released Prototype Animal Mod as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128599
"All you get from killing a elk bigger than human in Skyrim is enough meat for one meal and a hide that not enough even make one piece of armor.
Therefore, this mod makes the amount of material that can be stripped from the animal appropriate by editing death item and constructible object and makes the hunt a bit more difficult accordingly by movement type edit and distributing the perk to the animal by editing the movement type and distributing the perk to the animals."
Unfortunately no relevant information given as to the edits, but thanks
RRBrown released Hunter's Camp
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128589
"A Campsite for Hunters, Inspired by an ongoing Youtube Series" 2 versions, both of which take a loose approach to creative realism. a chair that opens the alchemy menu when you sit, and a tanning rack that allows smithing... Yeah, thanks, it's inventive.
sinzzzz released Dibella's Mischief
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128591
"This spell is reduce incoming damage by 99%. However, clothing cannot be equipped during the effect." They made this for an excuse to see the dynamic modesty mod in action. Might be fun to beat a legendary dragon to death unarmed, but...
Okay, moving right along.
imnotfamous released Unequip Quiver NG
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128582
"This is a brand new Unequip Quiver mod for the latest version of Skyrim.
It will unequip the quiver when switching to a non-ranged weapon, nothing more, nothing less." Everything old is new again. Thanks This one gets a cookie.
And finally Praedy's Tel Mithryn - SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128505
"Retextures Tel Mithryn." This is their second mod after a years absence, and Praedy hasn't lost his touch at all. Beautiful texture sets intended for use with Rally's Tel Mithryn in 2k and 4k With an alternate color variation closer to vanilla. There are parallax updates for both of their current mods planned.
Thanks Praedy. The old cat was starting to wonder why he got up today. LOL
The ale and mead are fresh, fires are stoked, and the floors are swept and mopped. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 8th od Hearthfires, and another 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 brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Miami espresso, and the biscuits are chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 46 new with plenty of jiggles and pointy sticks today, but not much else. Let's see what does catch the eyes of an old cat over a fresh cuppa.
TELLYAWHARGAMES released Nightingale Bow and Blade after a years absence.
"Just simply adds and unenchanted version of the nightingale bow and blade in a balancing way." Thanks my googly challenged friend, Have you thought about making a wheel? LOL, another for the pile
followmodesty released two this week, and the old cat missed the first. Welcome back
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/foll ... ameId=1704
Bestiary of Skyrim, and immersive notes. This one wants to reinvent the wheel as well. Ever heard of missives, or the notice board? well they haven't published since 2016, and removed all their mods from the Nexus. Maybe they need to poke around a little. thanks.
Sostratus released Persistent Dragonstone
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128635
"Places the Dragonstone in Dragonsreach after turning it in to Farengar." Okay, the old cat likes this one... 'This' is what the old cat considers immersive. Thanks, Have a cookie
LevinLozenges released Soul Restoration - A Soul Resurrection Add On
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128273
"allows you to heal injuries and exhaustion accumulated by the mod with filled soul gems." More ESO crap LOL, do you swallow them with mead Just kidding, an interesting if fairly creepy mechanic. Thanks
dBottle released Simple Whiterun Walls
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128646
"Rebuilt Whiteruns main gate Wall" ? All the old cat sees is a pair of wooden arches. The walls are not fixed. maybe this on needs to try the old cat's coffee. Thanks
Stabscaliber released Locations Redone - Autumnwatch Tower
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128641
"A complete overhaul of Autumnwatch Tpwer!" This mod on the other hand does actually fix a few things in a lore friendly way. Worth a read and a cookie. Nicely done.
Kanjs - Ash Extractor Animated
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128630
"I added remeshes, retextured and animated the Ash Extractor up to 4K." The old cat has no idea what this thing is or does. Something to do with Neloth evidently. Thanks?
Edmond's Cinematic Dragon Soul Absorption Remastered ESL
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128639
Totally over the top, and should probably come with an epilepsy warning. Not really sure what the default master destruction spell animation has to do with absorbing dragon souls, but your game your way. thanks
And finally Watchman's Fallside Manor
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128655
"A new small, detailed, lore-friendly, and immersive player home outside Riften." Not a bad location, and nicely done. The old cat is not fond of trying to add treasure displays to a small home, and the 'treasures' ... Sorry, there is a difference between immersive and noobish, but this one is young yet. Thanks, your game your way
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!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Morndas the 9th of Hearthfires and wage slaves lament, the weekend is over. Hide if you can or work if you must, it's Morndas. The blessed moons have set and it's also time once again for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the boil.
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and the biscuits are oatmeal cranberry. Checking the hot sheets we have 56 new mods. Lot's a jiggle, but not much substance. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa or two...
Madmatt1994 released corpse vendor as a first mod. Welcome.
A first attempt at adding a bare bones merchant in the midden that sells leveled corpse summon spells. Offered as-is, with no further info. Thanks, no link needed.
Groe released Lore Books Rewritten as a second mod, after a 2 year absence.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128745
"Collection of in-game books rewritten with an eye toward lore and worldbuilding depth." At least this one reads... That's worth a cookie
MagicaLessMods released Noodles
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128704
"Noodles adds noodles to Skyrim, which you can cook at any cooking pot" Now there's a simple mod the old cat can sink his teeth into. They look yummy as well. You get a cookie too, but after dinner. Don't want to spoil your appetite.
ItsRainmoon released Dirty Water Carries Diseases - Lower Chance
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128682
A simple patch for AndrealphusVIII recent mod that simply changes the 'chance' of getting a water born disease from 50% to 5%. THANKYOU! Ah'vrie is glad to see the old cat wasn't the only one that thought the original values were utterly ridiculous.
Finally leostevano released three Complex materials support patches
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/leos ... ameId=1704
Slyland bark, Skyking signs, and Fantasia landscapes. Thanks
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floor is where you'll find the old cat snoozing. We-B-Open!

Gooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 10th of Heathfires and another quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons wax through the final quarter tonight, and will be full again shortly. Time to hone those silver weapons once again. Anyway 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 brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Miami espresso, and the biscuits are lemon sugar cookies. Checking tho hot sheets we have 56 new with all the usual Nirn shaking jiggles. Let's see what catches the eyes of an old cat over a fresh cuppa... maybe two
NimRo97 released 60 FPS for Better Dialogue and Messagebox Controls
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128780
"Makes UI from ecirbaf's Better Messagebox Controls and Better Dialogue Controls run at 60 FPS while keeping all their features. Great for consistency when using other 60 FPS menu mods." Interesting, Ah'vrie never realized it was originally ported from console. Thanks
followmodesty released Remnants - Dragon Bones on High Hrothgar
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128808
""Remnants - Dragon Bones" adds ancient dragon bones along the path to High Hrothgar and the summit of the Throat of the World. These colossal remains serve as eerie reminders of Skyrim's ancient dragon battles as you ascend the sacred mountain."
One, half buried and visible from the courtyard (like a fossil) would have actually been interesting, maybe even foreboding, but scattering several... Your game your way. Thanks
Bracxus3000 released Fort Heljarchen SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128845
"Tranforms boring old Heljarchen Hall into a sprawling massive Fort, with the Hall at the Heart of it all."
Whiterun walls, Solitude watch tower, and bandit gates... The old cart will stick with Heljarchen farm, but nice effort, thanks
J0suk3 released an... interesting twist on our favorite vamp (and a patch hub)
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/J0su ... ameId=1704
Okay, Gnewna's probably going to beat me up over this, but J0suk3's version of Serana has a fun, teenage goth, 'Harlequin' vibe to her. Doesn't fit the vanilla voice, but she might make you wonder if you're actually helping her, or lunch on the hoof? We love choice, and this one's definitely different. Thanks, have a cookie
And finally we have our mod of the day... Triptherift has returned! Sound the trumpets
SkyChild
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128779
"It's been around 10 years since I first made The Kids Are Alright. It's had ups and downs since it first released due to reasons. I've been re-releasing all my old mods in high poly, which in my mind improves them greatly. This is loosely based on the original TKAA mod, but is totally rebuilt and restructured, and is NOT compatible with prior versions, prior version patches, or ANY other child replacer for that matter."
This is a standalone mod not compatible with any prior version or it's patches... Theefore
SkyChild Patch Collection
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128781
"This is where you will find patches for SkyChild, either made by me or submitted to me by others. SkyChild has open permissions, so if you make a mod patch, please share it with the community."
contains 8 current patches and instructions for creating a patch as well. These two definitely get cookies, now we need new clothing mods... or patches. Tracking for now, andf looking forward to seeing them in game.
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Wake the old cat propped up in the corner on his broom at your peril. We-B-Open!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 11th of Hearthfires, and a quiet morning at the inn. The blessed moons will be full a week from today so hone those silver weapons while you can. Anyway, it's time for this one to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires and stoked and fresh water is brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Ristretto I think, the old cats eyes were still closed at the time LOL. Today's biscuits will be white chocolate chunk in a few minutes. (The ovens are preheating) Checking the hot sheets we have 45 new with all the usual suspects. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa or two.
NightFadeZ released Riverwood Farm beta as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128933
They started by adding a small player house to Riverwood (Didin't we all ) and got carried away. I wish they had more/better pictures. It looks like they had fun.
ni1by2 released Exercise and Stay in Shape - a custom patch as their second.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128910
"Patches 'Stay in Shape' by JaySerpa and 'Pumping Iron' by Gopher to immersively use 'Exercise' by tjhm4 to grow your muscles. Works very well with Static Skill Levelling mods"
Basically allow you to still use weight training mods with static skill leveling. An interesting problem the old cat never considered, and a nice work around. have a cookie
WhosArk1 released Ark Female Nordic Clothing - 3BA
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128883
This is more of a modders resource, or you have to console them in game, but it is a nicely edited little mashup of several common outfits. Thanks, some assembly required.
TheLastAkaviri531 released Bloody Dynasty - Volkihar Family NPC OVerhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128375
"And you thought the Black Briars were dysfunctional" Yet another makeover of the Harkon clan with a young Serana. This one has custom skin and tattoos selectable in the Fomod. It's nice to see a family resemblance as opposed to a cookie cutter Valencia. Thanks
CinnaMewRoll released two for the puppy lovers among us
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Cinn ... ameId=1704
A corgi DAR/Oar set, and a Husky DAR/Oar set. The huskys get a curved tail and a more confident stance. The Corgi's... "sploot" LOL Thanks
Monitor221hz released Asset Doctor
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/123445
"SKSE NG plugin that automatically scans and finds missing meshes and textures as they load in game, and logs the paths to a file, optionally displaying them to an in-game interface." I doubt I's want the data displayed in game, but a detailed list file would make for a great tool for debugging missing texture paths. This one gets a cookie, even if we hope we never need it. Thanks
And finally our mod of the day... Beat the drums
WiZkiD Shacks Doors and Windows
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128922
"This mod completes the work of the carpenter who built all the shacks in Skyrim but forgetting one small detail, adding doors and windows." And nicely done as always. We're going to have to put Wiz on a diet with all the bloody cookies LOL. Another keeper for the old cat's next load order.
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!

Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo, and the biscuits are chocolate chunk. Checking the hot sheets we have 48 new with the usual jiggles, patches, and goofs. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat today.
lecdabster released LD's NPC Replacer - Dawnstar as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128034
"A replacer mod for people of Dawnstar. It includes almost all NPCs living in Dawnstar which is 31 NPCs in total."
This one is worth a serious look. Taste is subjective of course, but this is not what the old cat would have expected for a first mod. Let alone an NPC overhaul. Quite a bit of facial sculpting, creative use of tattoos. Definitely not 'just another supermodel' mod. Not for everyone, but certainly worth a look, and a cookie.
Gsilent returns to Skyrim after a two year absense to release their second mod
Destroyer Armor: "The most OTT armor I can possibly mash together!" Thanks, no link.
iceyman99 released Amazing Apparel and Accessories Alternatives
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128987
"Adds 360+ additional articles of re-textured, re-colored, and re-imagined clothing to give your fashion-conscious mage a true plethora of options."
This is the followup to their first mod, a light-weight crafting framework released back in April. This mod requires their framework. Some nice mashups for you to craft... Certainly worth a look as well. Thanks
Let's see... Here's a couple of questionable value
FfIower released Mermaids in Skyrim
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128535
"This mod enables the player to turn into a mermaid upon consuming Mermaid Scales"
As a curse, offered with no cure., no way back to the main game... :steamfacepalm: An excuse for fish with breasts. Forked from the adult mod with none of the fun. PASS!
nullwyrm released Enchanting XP Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128945
"Awards customizable additional Enchanting XP to make Enchanting a more interesting skill to level." You'll want to read the mod page carefully. This adjusts the XP gained by enchanting /disenchanting items based on the price, the size of the soul gem used... A bit early for the old cat, but this one's read is XP gains are OP with a plan.
Blinkour2 released Gradients effects - Restoration
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129000
"Restoration is described as: (involving) control over life forces. This skill makes it easier to cast spells like Healing, Turn Undead, and magical wards. Skill experience is gained by healing when injured and blocking damage with protective wards, or casting protective circles on the ground. Casting healing spells while at full health, or using wards without taking damage, does not raise the Restoration skill. However, casting circles with no enemies around will." This is a continuation of their other magic school gradient(s) Interesting that the earlier releases were graphical in nature, but this one seems more focused on usage. Hopefully we'll see this evolve into an 'all inn one' that addresses Mage play in general. Interesting, The old cat will keep an eye out to see how this develops.
Retexture Solitude By BigHead
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128999
"A texture review for Solitude, a city I really like, and now I can make it more pleasant. I hope you like it!"
Taste is subjective, and your game your way... And I hate to poke what obviously must have taken a lot of time and effort but this looks awful, The texture choices, the color pallet, the low res wood... and the overuse of parallax... The old cat can hear his mother admonishing him "if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing" ...!
We'll finish up with L3st4t's From Dusk Till Dawn
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/127059
"This mod will add stunning different and unique dusks and dawns to NAT weather for all meteo types ( clean,cloudy,foggy,rain, snow, vulcanic )
Esp Flagged Esl"
Caution, this only works with NAT.ENB III - Natural and Atmospheric Tamriel ENB 3.1.1C
If you are using it, this mod will edit the master file to add vivid dawns and dusks
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 Turdas the 12th of Hearthfires and another 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 brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo, and the biscuits are chocolate chunk. Checking the hot sheets we have 48 new with the usual jiggles, patches, and goofs. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat today.
lecdabster released LD's NPC Replacer - Dawnstar as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128034
"A replacer mod for people of Dawnstar. It includes almost all NPCs living in Dawnstar which is 31 NPCs in total."
This one is worth a serious look. Taste is subjective of course, but this is not what the old cat would have expected for a first mod. Let alone an NPC overhaul. Quite a bit of facial sculpting, creative use of tattoos. Definitely not 'just another supermodel' mod. Not for everyone, but certainly worth a look, and a cookie.
Gsilent returns to Skyrim after a two year absense to release their second mod
Destroyer Armor: "The most OTT armor I can possibly mash together!" Thanks, no link.
iceyman99 released Amazing Apparel and Accessories Alternatives
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128987

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is lucky Fredas the 13th of Hearthfires, and thank the divines the weekend is nigh at hand. So if you're a time traveling knight of the order, you might want to consider taking the day off. For the rest of us however, 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 brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and the biscuits will have to wait on Ah'vrie visiting the markets a little later. This one always bakes fresh for the weekend. Checking the hot sheets we have 41 new with all the usual suspects. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa.
LukasNein22 released Adryan's Dungeon as a first mod. Werlcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129024
"This mod is meant as a proof of skill for the Skyblivion-Project." Well that explains why it wasn't a house in Riverwood Good luck with the Skyblivion team. We're looking forward to seeing it finished.
Coffee2a released Ivy - Riverwood Windmill Apothecary - T's Skyrim with Leaf Rest
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129096
"This is a combo patch between Jk's Skyrim, T's Skyrim Riverwood with Leaf Rest and Ivy - Riverwood Windmill Apothecary I made for my game and think I should share for other."
If you build it, they will 'patch' Welcome, and Thanks. Word of caution though, this is their first mod, and it edits navmesh from multiple mods... Call it a beta.
The old cat needs a patch for just Leafrest and Ivy's windmill, but that's easy enough to whip up when I do the build.
killemloud released Animal Skinning Knife as a second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128984
"Striking any dead animal with the Animal Skinning Knife gives the player its inventory" Intended for use with Simple Hunting Overhaul, just eliminates a bit of the tedium. Thanks
ThinkInk69 released Glover Mallory Carries Guild Key for Blackguard Armor
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129079
"No longer will you have to join the Thieves Guild for the Blackguard Armor set. Just pickpocket the key to Glover's basement off of him instead!" Of course if you're an unaligned thief, you could just PICk THE EFFIN LOCK! LOL thanks
AlexGH91 ported Bridges of Skyrim SE by JeremeW5257
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129064
"This is a port and standalone of a mod that adds over 20 lore friendly bridges all over Skyrim.The original mod was made without navmeshes. I cleaned the mod and added all of the navmeshes in every bridge and added few compatibility patches."
From the author of More underwater treasures... The old cat senses a certain irony to that, but more coffee would be needed. Thanks
Let's see... MaskedRPGFan released a Disparity SE - Character Classes settings loader
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129055
Haven't seen one of those in a while. Thanks.
Styyxus released Navigation Restrictions - NG
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129086
"SKSE plugin that limits your access to the compass and the map to only work if you have a map or compass in your inventory" Greeeat, More tedium and stuff that breaks... Thanks
Jelidity released Knotwork
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/128235
"Adds extra knotwork to the journal for assigning to quests." Simple and nicely done. Instant download. Have a cookie.
markuskarttunen1 released Dynamic Sand Shader
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129068
"Adds a sand shader to certain coastal objects, making them look like they're gently covered in sand, as opposed to just sticking out." A very nice consistency mod. Makes rocks in sandy areas get a 'dusting' similar to stones in snowy areas. Nicely done, though even in the pictures a few stones were missed. This one gets a cookie as well.
And finally, our mod of the day... Beat the drums
Complex Prairie Grasses by dBottle
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129035
"Alternate meshed version of Lore friendly Grasses"
"I made a short grass version of this and figured I would play around with regular longer meshes and it turned out to be really great so I figured I would release it as a standalone."
Okay, the old cat has to admit, this grass mod is refreshingly simple. Not every biome needs to look like it has thirty different weeds growing. Seeing uniform meadows like this is a very refreshing change. A perfect example of less being more. Downloaded to endorse and for testing in game. 2 cookies.

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Goooooooood Morning Tamriel! mriel riel iel...
Ah'vrie wishes you well, It is Loredas the 14th of Hearthfires, and wage slaves rejioce the weekend has arrived. It is another quiet predawn at the inn. The blessed moons are nearly full again, so keep those silver weapons close. Anyway, it is time once again for Ah'vrie to empty the ash pit's and rebuild the fires... There, much better no? Ah'vrie always likes to start the weekend with happy fires. As his mother oft said, they warm more than the room. Now to compost the ash, tend the garden, scrub the kettles, and bring fresh water to the boil... There, now the day can begin.
Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo, and the biscuits are oatmeal cranberry. Or rather will be shortly after the ovens preheat. Checking the hot sheets we have 53 new mods with all the usual jiggles, dangles, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa, or maybe two, do I hear three? going once, twice... *Bam* sold to an Argonian
TheNormalIndian released Warm Mead
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129130
"This mod transforms Mead and Ale into vital survival tools for Skyrim's harsh conditions." Similar to the Frostfall effects, but no penalty when the buff wears off. The old cat will call this an RP friendly QOL mod for survival players. Ale also fends off the cold, but it's a poor cousin to Mead. Ah'vrie is an inn keeper that brews mead, of course this one will tell you that mead wards the chill. Thanks A little OP, but actually reasonable.
sinzzzz released Prevent Pickpocket after Training
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129117
"You will not be able to pickpocket back the costs you paid for training." Another for the pile... This one should be kicked from the guild. What good is becoming a thief if you can't practice stealing? No cookie for you
Exalderan released Shor's Stone Scenes Restored - Cut Content Restoration
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129141
This one is still recreating Cutting room floor one scene at a time. Why use one plugin when you can waste dozens? Everyone needs a hobby. Thanks
JJerem released YETI - High Hrothgar Troll Den
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129145
"A small overhaul of the Troll Den on the way to High Hrothgar" Yeah... small. Swaps the troll for a frost giant, and adds rocks and clutter. Your game your way. Not for old cats
let's see... Knotwork - Dear Diary (Dark Mode or Paper) Patch
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129120
"A UI patch for Knotwork by Jelidity, to work with Dear Diary Dark Mode (warm/white) and Paper." The old cat will be adding this. Some assembly required. Thanks
And not exactly a mod of the day, but...
LeveledList Crash Fix by Shekhinaga
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129136
"Simple SKSE mod that prevents AddForm from adding forms to leveled lists with 255 items, preventing crashes." There are also patches for the GOG game version as well as a downgrader for the 1.5 available separately.
A straight forward no nonsense fix for the for a problem no one could have imagined back in the day... So many script injected mods that you crash the base form list
This is the divines way of telling you there are too many mods... Maybe streamline your modlist?
And that will do for today. The fresh casks of ale were delivered last night, and the new batch of mead is ready. We're serving Mudcrab scrambles for the early meal. Ale braised sabrecat for the late meal, and as always we'll have a hearty stew simmering all day for those that need to ward the chill.
The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept and mopped. Have a seat and the wenches will serve you. We-B-Open!

Goooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 15th of Hearthfires and a sticky predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and it's time once again 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 Capetown Lungo, and the biscuits are Oatmeal cranberry. Checking the hot sheets we have 47 new mods with all the jiggles, dangles, patches and pointy sticks we've come to expect. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa... Not much.
ylw74127 released Yet another CBPC - CBBE 3BA physics config as a first mod. Welcome
A config for increased but jiggle... Moving right along
Hopelessdecoy released Skyrim Linux Modder as a first SSE mod (Very Alpha)
" the first mod manager made for Skyrim on Linux." No link as this is barely usable in this state, but we wish them luck. That's an ambitious first project.
JTrockin patched Gemling Queen Jewelry Rings For Jewelry Limiter
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129232
"This mod adds meshes for Gemling Queen Jewelry to work with Jewelry Limiter. Allowing you to see them on all fingers." Thanks, still a WIP, and make sure you check the requirements of Jewelry limiter... some assembly required.
And now for what passes as our mod of the day. Sound the trumpets
Diverse Tanning Racks - Base Object Swapper by FrankBlack
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129205
"This is a Base Object Swapper mod that adds thirty two variant tanning racks to Skyrim. There are seven frame types each with between three and seven variants. You'll see people tanning different leathers and different pelts. In towns, the racks remain that same but the pelts are randomly swapped on save load. In the wild, any of the variants may appear as these feel like they are more temporary and would change."
Frank included one of Renthal's low res frames... which the old cat is not fond of, but the idea of dynamically swapping pelts on load I tend to like. Have a cookie
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked yada yada We-B-Open!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 16th of Hearthfires 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 gibbous tomorrow night, But the blessed moons are close enough to full for the goddess' crazy puppies to already be out and about, so be careful, and keep those silver weapons close. Just remember you show up at the inn smelling of wet dog and you get introduced to this one's silver mace. 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 brought to a boil
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and the biscuits are Tate's chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 60 new with all the usual jiggles, dangles, patches and goofs. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa... maybe two
KnuckleSteam released Consistent Sensitivity Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129322

Nodiel71 released Castilleja Coccinea - 3D Red (and Yellow) Mountain Flowers
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129311
"This mod replaces the vanilla 2D red (and optionally, yellow) mountain flower models with thickets of indian paintbrush. Includes snow variants." Thanks, but red tipped leaves don't exactly come across as 'flowers' Pretty, but pass
Hazel92 released Beyond Skyrim Bruma milk thistle
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129362
"Meshes and textures replacer for the milk thistle from Beyond skyrim Bruma." Now these on the other hand look very nice. Not surprising when it's based on Dr Jacopo's work
Moving on to crafting...
Xiang6666Baxiren released Hide and Fur Crafting at the Tanning Rack
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129302
"Enables the player to craft basic hide and fur armour at the tanning rack, plus hide shields." Where it should have been to begin with.
Seems the muses poked more than one person.
creekdipper released Craft Fur and Hide Armors at the Tanning Rack - ESPFE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129354
"Quick edit of the original mod by jladams1 to include the full set of Hide armor and flagged as light file. No mod requirements other than the base game." Thanks
shazdeh2 released Temper and Recharge Services
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129279
"You can ask smiths to temper you weapon/armor, and court wizards to recharge your enchanted items." Not the first, but most others are part of bigger overhauls. This is quick and clean for someone RPing a non crafting / non magic user. Nice. Have a cookie
Moving onto critters...
Exalderan released Slaughterfish Fast Travel And Submersion Fix
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129228
"Fixes the frustrating issue where Slaughterfish block fast travel and won't stay submerged. They now stay underwater and won't bother you on land. Download now for smoother, more immersive adventures!" Okay, now this one gets a cookie. Downloaded to endorse
theicedevil ported Mudcrabs (Burrow-Me-Not) SE by UlithiumDragon
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129349
"This is an SE conversion of Mudcrabs Burrow-Me-Not. It simply changes the Mudcrab Idle Animations, so they don't burrow themselves in the ground when they rest for a bit of immersion." If it makes you happy... Thanks
Retrophyx released Ancient Coastal Mudcrabs -SE- ESL
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129333
"Enhance your coastal regions of Skyrim and Solsthiem with lovable giant crabs. Aye the scourge of the seas." Yikes, the little ones are annoying enough. But the fact that they only give you 2 chitin, and no crab meat... Hard pass. If the old cat has to work that hard, fighting something that big, it ought to feed the family.
Let's see... mjbabyface released College of Winterhold - (Books - Spell Tomes - Scrolls)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129365
"The Teachers of Schools of Magic hold their respective Spell Tomes in full catalogue. Urag has all of the scrolls. Also every single book (400+) in Skyrim has been added to the Library, purchasable from Urag (except Decorating Guides, Letters, Quest Notes, or Recipes). All Spell Tomes and Scrolls have been removed from generating in the open world."
The old cat was going to recommend this right up until "All Spell Tomes and Scrolls have been removed from generating in the open world." Having a place to go to complete the collection is nice, removing the fun of searching for them is a deal breaker. This is now only useful for a pure mage play through where you start at the college.

We'll finish up with Valhalla my ENB (Cabbage or NAT) by DaveHans
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/129278
"Give your Cabbage or NAT ENB some AC Valhalla vibes."
All Ah'vrie sees is over saturated reds and greens distorting the color pallet along with the dynamic range pushed to the point of distorting flames... Your game your way. Pass
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!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 16th of Hearthfires 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 gibbous tomorrow night, But the blessed moons are close enough to full for the goddess' crazy puppies to already be out and about, so be careful, and keep those silver weapons close. Just remember you show up at the inn smelling of wet dog and you get introduced to this one's silver mace. 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 brought to a boil
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and the biscuits are Tate's chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 60 new with all the usual jiggles, dangles, patches and goofs. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa... maybe two
