Modding on the SpectrumGoooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 19th of Sun's Dawn, and congratulations on surviving another Morndas. Always a good thing. The blessed moons have set and it is 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 brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Arpeggio, and the biscuits are Strawberry rhubarb thumb prints. Checking the hot sheets we have 50 new mods and several caught the eye this morning. Let's dive right in over a fresh cuppa.
evertinee25 released Thatch Roof for Walkways as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133648
"Thatch roofs for roofed walkways around towns and villages." A replacer, and a BOS version. These actually look quite nicely done. Have a cookie.
Modsetti released Flavours of the Hold as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134331
"This mod aims to bring region-specific food, drink and custom menus to the inns of Skyrim, starting with The Bannered Mare." "I plan on expanding this mod out to cover all inns and taverns across Skyrim." Thanks, Ah'vrie looks forward to seeing the project finished and an all in one released.
ssstierghoul released True Armored Circlets as a second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134344
"Adds craftable variants of existing circlets, light armor variant and heavy armor variant. Can be enchanted and refined. Compatible with "Matching set" perks. Should be compatible with any modded armor. Thanks, recipes only, uses your textures.
melchizedek92 released Woody Wooden Bow as their second mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134374
"Adds a new bow to the game." A very ugly stick, with crafting requirements... pass
Achronos11 released Giant's Toe 1K
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134292
"Giant's Toe 1K, upscaled + mesh seam fix" Thanks, looks good
rhonjhonson released Draugr Magic Arrow
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134281
"Ammo that matches the appearance of drainspell bow found in labyrinthian." See a need, fill a need. Thanks
davidgilbertking released No Telekinetic Dragon Claw Activation
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134329
"I edited the vanilla script, adding a line of code that prevents the player from moving when activating the keyhole, and then giving player controls back after ~4 seconds."
The old cat likes the concept, but 4 seconds... Ah'vrie moves a lot quicker than that when he spring a trap, yes he does. Pass, but cookie worthy
Pieter82 released Statue Of Kynareth - Alternate Placement
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134207
"Moves the Statue Of Kynareth by Mandragorasprouts from the temple floor to a platform suspended from the temple roof." While technically a patch, the old cat likes the look. Thanks,
wSkeever released Simplicity of Settlements - Morthal - Base Object Swapper
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134353
"Unique Morthal buildings with Base Object Swapper" This is Skeever so make sure to read the mod page. More than just textures, but honestly, the old cat loves the use of tiled roofs in this overhaul. Definitely worth a look and another cookie. This one is going in the next build for certain. Thanks
And we have two mod(s) of the day, And both are from new authors. Welcome, both of you, take the comfy seats by the fire... Drinks are on the old cat
Selvanss released Faithful HD - Landscapes as their second mod. Welcome back.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/133669
"A vanilla friendly retexture of Skyrim Landscape textures using 3D Scans featuring complex parallax." Color an old cat impressed. This is a very nice rendering of the ground textures with beautifully subtle tessellation. The old cat spotted no visible stretching in any of the images. This would be a wonderful first choice when adding parallax support to a vanilla game. Very nicely done, and certainly cookie worthy.
This next one... Hard to believe this is a first mod, and a year in the making!
Skyrim Every Single Texture Upscaled and Reworked by Waqas131294 as a first mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134352
"Treat every single Texture with love to get most of the details not a single texture left untouched while preserving the vram uses to almost same as vanilla it tooks me more then A year of daily work to do it.I repack them in 9 BSA to Overwrite Vanilla BSAs.I hope you appreciate it." "Upscaled every single texture of Skyrim almost 31652 textures to be exact with multiple models to get most of the details then reworked them in Photoshop to fix unwanted results and enhancing details to the maximum of my effort while keeping the same Vanilla size for the maximum Details"
This is obviously a labor of love. 16.5Gig download. This can be used as a full base game file replacer. Load this very high in the load order and allow custom textures to overwrite. This really needs to be seen in game. This
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and please don't disturb the old cat snoring in the corner. We-B-Open!

Goooooooo morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 20th of Sun's Dusk and a crisp predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set and it is once again time for this one to tend the inn. excuse please while the fires are stoked and fresh water is brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is I believe Indonesia ( I confess I didn't look
and the biscuits will have to wait on the old cat's return from the markets. Plenty of chocolate chips for now. Checking the hot sheets we have 28 new, and a few don't jiggle. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa. Thanks the divines for a fresh cuppa LOL
lilmetal released Dark Brotherhood - Unblocked Dialogue
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134415
"Having the kill contracts won't block the normal dialogue options for target NPCs." Useful if you're still completing side quests with the dark brotherhood active. Thanks
GiraPomba released Fishermen Fish
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134408
"Fishermen in Skyrim will actually fish. New fishing animations for some Fishermen NPCs in the game." The animations look quite smooth. Now the fishermen won't always be by the fire. They will actually fish. Serious eye candy and worth a look and a cookie. Thanks
DementedLulu released two more NPC replacer mods.
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Deme ... ameId=1704
Ulfric and Galmar, and Belethor. Ulfric's a little too young; looks like Brynjolf's father. Galmar look epic though, and Belethor... yeah, looks like someone that would sell their sister. Worth a look.
Tem's Houses - Left-Hand Mine
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134388
"Lightweight, interior overhaul of all Left-Hand Mine's home interiors, Skaggi's House, Daighre's and the Barracks. ESL Flagged." Another location that's overlooked by most. Nice to see some of the lesser interiors get some TLC. Thanks, have a cookie
And finally, not really a mod of the day, just the last to catch an old cat's eye
Temple of Talos Redone by mbucki
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134040
"This is a remake of the Temple of Talos in Windhelm that more closely matches the interior and adding more detail to the exterior." A very interesting fix visually. It honestly looks like the devs had an oops and the temple sunk into the walls. The pictures tell the tale. Here's another little fix you can't unsee. Available with or without vines (The vines look silly to be honest) Flagged for the old cat's next build Thanks, have a cookie
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are... Don't drop your food. We-B-Open!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Fredas the 22nd of Sun's Dusk and a quiet predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set, and it's 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...
Brew of the day is Venezia again, and the biscuits are chocolate fudge. Checking the hot sheets we have 44 new mods, mostly patches, with jiggles, dangles, and a few accessories thrown in. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa.
ShelbyWolf released THE IRON ARM - Dynamic Muscle Growth Mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134537
"This mod is an inspiration and spiritual successor of Gopher's "Pumping Iron" Mod.
It allows a player to get training points when they gain skill xp thus increase their muscles (Player Weight) when they level up."
This is an simplified growth mod. Unlike pumping iron which tracks sleep, food... etc. This simple issues points when you level up skills, and calculates body growth based on the number of points when your character levels. Nothing wrong with simple. Have a cookie

mattski123 released Just Better Vanilla Doors and Gates - Upscayled
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/131703
Not to dis the author, but the 4K version looks damn near as bad as vanilla... This can be safely ignored. There are much better choices available. Sorry, Pass
dabiggieboss released Lore Friendly Ruins - Nimalten Ruins
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134552
"Part of my continued series of bringing explanations for why towns present in TES: Arena are missing from Skyrim."
Unfortunately the "ruins" are a jumble of crap with no coherence. Your game your way, the old cat has no use for ESO inspired junk is Skyrim.
And that's it folks. There's really no mod of the day. I'll leave you to consider one that leaves this old cat scratching his head...
Dragonborn Charisma by Gorgopis
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134539
"This simple Mod allows the player character, AKA The Dragonborn, to enjoy a lesser power to project charisma against Undead, if desired, for 90 seconds."
We all know the Dragonborn has a 'sparkling' personality. The old cat just never considered using it as a weapon against the undead, or to physically glow, But your game your way. Not for old cats.

Gooooooood morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Loredas the 23rd of Sun's Dusk and a very quiet dawn at the inn. Apologies for being tardy, but sometimes an old body decides when more sleep is needed and we don't get to choose. Anyway, it is past time for Ah'vrie to tend the inn. Excuse please while the ash pits are emptied and the fires rebuilt. Ah'vrie likes to begin the weekend with happy fires, and a happy fire needs to breathe. This can get a bit dusty, you may want to cover your tankards for a bit... There, much better no? Now to compost this ash, check the garden, scrub the kettles... The life of an inn keeper is glamorous no?
Our brew of the day is from India, and the biscuits are Tate's chocolate chip. we'll bake something fresh when the old cat returns from the markets later. Checking the hot sheets we have 46 new with the usual eclectic mix of jiggles, dangles, patches, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa.
PopularOnions released AddItemMenu - Translation Crash Fix as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134654
There is evidently an issue with the translation files for AddItemMenu + AddItemMenu NG with SSE 1130 and newer. A work around was discovered that by deleting the translation files, the new versions would work normally. But if you use Vortex it would replace those files every time you re-deployed. This mod fixes that by including blank translation files. Load below Additem menu, and set to load after in the conflict menu. Thanks for sharing.
Obviously if you use MO2, just set the translation files to 'mo-hidden' and you're done.
Evkun released 'The Most Important Skyrim Mod Ever Made' as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134629
"This mod initially adds five simple food crafting recipes." LOL, They play a mage, and got tired of finding sliced eider cheese they could not use to make a fondue. This mod lets you re-create full wheels from sliced wheels... See a need fill a need. Have a cookie
goshu13 released Convertible Spellbreaker as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134676
"Lets you switch between light and heavy Spellbreaker using a forge" Thanks
JET654 released The Flowers of Riverwood as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134574
"This is a major renovation of riverwood." Well not really... adds planters with roses, some minor clutter and lots of decorative lanterns that would look better in Solsteim, but your game your way. Check the requirements, there are a few.
Let's see... LeahTheUnknown released Filled Baskets
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134640
"Fills the covered baskets you find everywhere with random loot." Oh goody, more crap to search through... Pass but thanks
TheLootist is still on a mission to make Skyrim use Roman imperial architecture
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/TheL ... ameId=1704
Your game your way... Not for old cats. Looks to modern and finished for ruins. Hard pass
HasphatAntobolis released two pig mods
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Hasp ... ameId=1704
A standalone, and a replacer for Skytest. Yep. looks like pigs top me
And finally Lulu's Housecarls replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134595
"This is a replacer for all the housecarls in Skyrim." Worth a look, Interesting that all of the females have exactly the same eye shape and wrinkles. But at least they're not all cookie cutter copies. Thanks, worth a look.
And that will do for today. The ale is fresh, and the new batch of mead is ready. We're serving mudcrab scrambles for the early meal. Ah'vrie will choose the late meal depending on what looks good in the market. As always there will be a hearty stew simmering.
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!

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134694
"Expands Roggi Knot-Beard with 212 immersive, lore-friendly lines. Quest, location, weather awareness. Reacts to main quests, DLC, guild." More high quality AI. Roggi definitely needed more lines. Thanks
Shadowqueen's Regalia by Ave
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134444
"Add a Potema's Jewelry Set, the 'Shadowqueen's Regalia', to the game." Recommended to add before starting the man who cried wolf or you might not find all of the items in game. Potema's piercings? interesting
ThanksAnd finally, not exactly a mod of the day, but needed a closer look. This is one of those some assembly required mods.
Dragons Variance by kuroishitam
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134748
"Now you can use all vanilla dragon replacers without having to choose one. Enjoy!"
8 dragon mods listed as required, and quite a few edits as well... everyone needs a hobby. The author considers this a framework, The old cat considers this too much work. LOL. Your game your way.
And that will do for today. The fiores are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are swept. Have a seat by the fires and warm your bones. We-B-Open!

Goooooood morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Morndas the 25th of Sun's Dusk, 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 set and it's time for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Napoli, and the biscuits are chocolate fudge brownies. Checking the hot sheets we have 44 new with plenty of jiggles and dangles. Let's see what catches the eye this morn that doesn't have a cup size over a fresh cuppa or two.
yofamgaming released Ring of Waterwalking
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134638
"Ahzidal's Boots are ugly, heavy, and terrible. This mod applies their enchantment to the Ring of Waterwalking. Use it as-is or disenchant it at a table. Waterwalking enabled for rings, necklaces, and footwear."
Originally I was going to label this another cheat for the pile, but the author placed the ring in an urn next to the boots in Kobjorn. Not so noobish... Have a cookie
kwamagg released Oil Barrels - Xploding Moveable Placeable
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134792
"Makes literally every oil barrel in the game lootable, craftable, and explosive."
Requires Xploding Barrels by Rollertoaster01 and BOS. Don't toss BA's barrel accidentally.
noextrac released Fine Fall Ferns - Base Object Swapper
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134771
"Swaps the ugly vanilla FallForestFernClusters models with SwordFern models through Base Object Swapper." This is an improvement? Okay, your game your way.
Clemus33 released Vanaheimr - Dawnguard Landscapes
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134770
"Overhaul of the landscape textures from the Dawnguard DLC." Nice to see the work continuing on the series. Complex materials comes to the soul Cairn. Thanks
Jelidity released Perk Trees - Unlocked Mechanics and Tweaks
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134760
"This is a simple mod to overhaul perk trees that I made for myself to get what I mostly want from a perk overhaul without needing to do much patching. Sticks close to vanilla while trying to expand the scope involved to account for changes made since their initial design in 2011" You'll need to read the mod page. There's are a lot of small changes that do make a difference.
And finally, Yes we do have a mod of the day, and it's a biggie!
Better Grabbing by SkyrimThiago
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134769
"Have you ever wanted to display your items and struggled to place them because the default Skyrim grab feature is too clunky? This mod replaces the grab feature with a better version that also allows you to rotate and translate the item"
Finally... We might be able to dump Jaxonz positioner. You'll want to watch the video, and this mod has been in an almost constant state of improvement since initial release. It is also compatible with 'grab and throw'
"Replaces the original item grab with a more advanced and straightforward way of moving items
Disables, the collision of the dragged object with other items while dragging
Fully support gamepad and the AE and SE versions
The key bindings and properties of this mod are configurable on an ini file"
The old cat will be tracking this closely. 3 cookies and a seat by the fires.
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!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 26th of Sun's Dusk and congratulations to all for surviving another Morndas. It's a quiet predawn at the inn, and time once again for this one to stoke the fires and bring fresh water to the boil.
Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo, and the biscuits are Ginger Zingers. Checking the hot sheets we have 34 new with lots of melons and pickles... Yeah that works LOL. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa or two.
vladpaul97 released Remove Various Objects In Skyrim SE as a first mod. Welcome
No link for this one. 8 files that remove basically everything. This must be for a reason other than to ruin the game... 'No game your way'?
TMushS released CS Soul Fragments Plus
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134839
"Convert soul gem fragments to a usable ingredient called soul gem essence." includes a small quest that lets you use the essence to make soul gems. Not the first, and the Daedra hearts required to make them 'filled' are much rarer than the gems. PASS
BruvRamm released two mods that prevent you from accidentally selling CC items to vendors
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Bruv ... ameId=1704
Unlike real life, this one thinks mods can fix stupid
JamesTParker released Draconic Nature perk tree
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134854
"This mod adds a new perk tree to the game. Unlocking the perks requires completing major heroic acts as the Dragonborn. You spend regular perk point to unlock the perks. The perks are intended to be slightly better then your average vanilla perk. ESL flagged."
Okay, well it's different. You get to unlock these perks by completing specific quests in the game. your rewards are 'not too OP' combat buffs. So the real question is why? Your game your way.
Let's see... shurcabesha patched 'Skyrim Every Single Texture Upscaled' for USSEP
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134824
"Small patch to replace some of the textures that Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch fixes with Skyrim Every Single Texture Upscaled and Reworked."
The old cat questions the need for this, as the files are also packed in a BSA... Grain of salt, just load the original mod below USSEP. Needs testing.
And finally sothasimp released Cozy Cots - A Cot Replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134836
"A cot replacer as requested, mid poly mostly 2k textures. Use Those Blankets patch available thanks to skulexander!"
Making Nirn more comfy to sleep in one bed at a time Thanks

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Goooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Middas the 27th of Sun's Dusk and a crisp predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons wane through the final crescents on their eternal journies. They will be gibbous on Loredas, and new on Sundas which is also the first of Evening Star. Anyway, it is 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 Miami espresso, and the biscuits are chocolate fudge. Checking the hot sheets we have 38 new from the usual suspects. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa... or three.
Lageron1 released Rookie Patchwork as a first mod. Welcome
Fresh blood and a first patch... no link needed but welcome
pjaj released Voice of the Sky - 48 Hour Greater Power as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134958
"Voice of the Sky can now be cast once a day as a greater power, and now lasts for 48 hours. For those that like animals, but also want consequences for hunting."
The old cat likes this one's thinking. The old cat has similar thinking and currently has a mod that adds the voice of the sky power to a ring. The old cat may switch to this. Not bad for a first mod. Have a cookie.
MackenzieBeyer released For Her For Me For You as a first SSE mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134928
"a linear, narrative heavy quest mod. It features new and interesting characters to learn about, a challenging dungeon to brave, and fully voiced NPCs."
This one remembers Mackenzie from oldrim. This is her first SSE mod, and it's a fully voiced quest mod. Welcome back.
eiasyeasyi released An adventurous journey as a second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134951
"Choose the person you want to be, warrior, mage, thief? When you choose one, you need to stick to that direction, and of course, you also have some branches on the chosen path to experience the joy of choice. I'm not very familiar with perk, so there's a long way to go with this skill tree."
A rather overly simplified class system for the start of the game. Right now it only covers the doom stones you're introduced to in the vanilla open. Different and worth a look. Lets call this a WIP beta though. More will probably be added over time.
Let's peek under the hood a bit...
MaskPlague released Subtle Character Bumper Adjustment for Precision
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134891
"I have centered the Character Bumper on the XP32 player skeleton and increased its size. This adjustment prevents enemies from getting too close in all directions while still maintaining a certain distance for close combat (about a foot and a half). It allows combat to be closer than the default Character Bumper permits, but not so close that it causes first-person camera clipping or third-person animations to pass through enemies, as they might when the bumper is disabled by Precision. This is a happy middle ground for me compared to having the bumper fully on or off, although the perceivable difference from the default bumper is very subtle."
This may be intended for a melee character, But the old cat thinks this will also keep followers from running into your back all the time... This is one of the very few mods you would allow to overwrite XPMSSE. Thanks, tracking for now.
rhonjhonson released Remove Third Person Camera Movement SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134899
"This will remove the FOV change and shaking camera from 3rd person when sprinting: On Foot, Horse, Vampire Lord, and Werewolf." "Unlike Motion Sensitive Fix this one edit the skeleton.nif instead of each animation. So it's compatible with other animations. But of course, incompatible with mods that edit the skeleton.nif."
Which means you can't use it with the previous 'bumper' mod
And finally, Waqas131294 add a patch hub to Skyrim Every Single Texture Upscaled
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134957
The first patch is for 'Major Cities Mesh Overhaul' Thanks, tracking for now
And that will do for today. The fires are stoked, the kettles scrubbed, and the floors are... Where's that damned mop. We-B-open!

Goooooood Morning Tamriel! amriel mriel riel el...
Ah'vrie it would seem is greeting an empty room. This one's pet smooth skin says today is a day of giving thanks and eating way to much. There have been times, when this one was very thankful for a full belly, so this is understandable even for old cats. Ah'vrie will tend the inn anyway just in case anyone is still in need of good food and good friends. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Istanbul espresso, and the biscuits are Tate's lemon cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 44 new, and a few caught the eye. Let's dive right in.
We'll start with a shout out to Hymlock for another manager plugin for MO2
Log Parsing Manager for Mod Organizer 2
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135040
"Log Parsing Manager is a plugin for Mod Organizer 2 that automatically parses Skyrim crash reports and provides insights to help prevent future crashes. This tool offers advanced error extraction and analysis, making it easier to identify and resolve issues within your game logs" Reading crash logs is always cryptic at best, this should help. Needs testing. Thanks.
mattski123 released Ugly Pixelated Puddles and Mud Removed ft. Windhelm
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134956
"Removed some of those ugly as looking pixelated puddles for you."
Okay, the old cat needs to point out this ones game looks awful with or without the puddles. The only reason this exists is a visible lack of skill and poor choices using complex materials. Your game your way, but this one needs to learn to mod. Hard pass
SpiderAkira released two today. Bandages, and kick chickens
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Spid ... ameId=1704
You're supposed to cook chickens not kick them. This one obviously misunderstood. However the bandages mod is a little more interesting. Simple to make, heals 3 per second for 30 seconds, so on a par with a potion of minor healing, but over time.
Thanks, the old cat thinks it would be more immersive if it healed 1 per second until you removed it. A bandage should not be 'quick' but should continue to keep the wound clean until removed. Alto wine as an antiseptic? Oookay. LOL
Imperial2000 released two today. Thalmor emissary clothes, and More varied clothes
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Impe ... ameId=1704
Definitely worth a look. Some of the outfits looks more like armor than clothing, But we love choice. Thanks
aherk released Glossy River and Marsh Ice
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135037
"A re-mesh and re-texture of the ice in the marsh and rivers/lakes" Oooh Shiny... No literally shiny. Well a little anyway. Worth a look. Pictures don't do justice to parallax and sub surface scattering on ice. This will need to be seen in your build. Thanks
Severing of Spines - Decapitate Corpses by wSkeever
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135042
"Power attack with axes, swords, and daggers to decapitate corpses"
A bit gruesome, but your game your way. The old cat's only poke would be including daggers. No one has ever been decapitated with a dagger... Not enough mass to sever bone. Axes, two handed swords, and even scimitars yes, but daggers
Are mod of the day is actually an alpha... call it a WIP
LvxMagicks - Eclipse - Airship - Flying - Alpha
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/134995
"A Fully Functional Airship that allows you to travel to locations ether by flying the journey yourself under full control of the airship or using the onboard flight system."
"This is a Alpha test of the mod & is not the final version but is game safe & ready to fly."
You'll want to watch the video. The model would do with a few stairs and ladders, but this one you can actually summon and fly. That's 3 cookie work at least. The old cat can't wait to see the final version. Definitely worth a look.
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!
Have a wonderful Thanks giving *waves*

Ah'vrie wishes you well. it is Fredas the 29th of Sun's Dusk and divines be praised the weekend is nigh. The blessed moons were barely visible last night, Gibbous tomorrow, and new on Sundas. As you can imagine, the hunters are already celebrating, and we hope the goddess enjoys a long weekends rest. Anyway, it is 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 brought to a boil...
Our brew of the day is Kahawa ya Congo, and the biscuits are Sweet Loren's sugar cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 42 new mod, with the usual eclectic mix of jiggles, dangles, patches and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa or two.
ianyf released two first mods today. Latex armor, and shake it ... Oookay, Welcome

Both of these oldies were converted to ESP-FE. Thanks

All weapoons in the game are slightly lighter, faster, and have higher crits...
TheLorefarer released Seeker's Solace
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135116
"A series of connected towers fit for a wizard or arcanist, with daedric influence hidden by previous owners in their pursuit of knowledge"
The old cat's not sure how to feel about this one. It's certainly an interesting look, a bit of clipping but the missing snow shader keywords are what hits the eye first. Still, it is supposed to be a mage tower... Anti snow spell LOL. Worth a look, not for old cats. Thanks
fleckso released Extended Rest - A Player Home - Navmesh Patch
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135090
"A patch for Extended Rest - A Player Home that adds a navmesh and 2 additional campfire seat markers." The old cat usually doesn't bother with patches, but adding follower support to a dungeon crawling friendly interior campsite mod? Worth mentioning.
RustyOldSword released New Kids - a children replacer mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135100
"This is a children replacer mod for Skyrim AE." The old cat is not really thrilled, but taste is subjective, and it's not the old cat's game. We do love choice... Thanks
Araviss535 released Relationship Dialogue Overhaul (RDO) NPCs - a replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135060
"RDO adds several new or cut from vanilla NPCs into the game. This replacer updates their looks so they blend better into a modded game, if you encouter them." Also worth a look, Thanks
snozz2004 released Sunderstone
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135078
"Exterior & Interior Overhaul of Sunderstone Gorge"
The old cat is not fond of adding useless first era ruins 'everywhere' without any context But, once you get past the entrance, some of the interior additions look interesting. Especially the new elevated walkways entering the final ruin. Worth a look.
We'll finish up today with a short Witcher inspired quest mod.
Bark and Bite by nimwraith
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/135087
"Uncover the origins of a mysterious tree within the Rift and choose if you wish to meddle in such affairs."
A sapling from Uncle Sheo's garden... This looks interesting, and is certainly unique among Skyrim quests. Thanks, worth a look and a cookie. We like original as much as choice.
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!
