Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Turdas the 25th 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 put to the flame...
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and the biscuits are fudge brownie cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 40 new mods from the usual sources. Mostly jangle and patches today. Let's see what catches the eye over a fresh cuppa or two.
Fernvud released SunHelm - Reskin Skill Tree as a first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/159971
"A simple reskin of the beloved SunHelm skill tree" in two flavors. Thanks
aherk released Nightingale Hall Scene Fixes
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/159973
"Karliah won't open the gate? Now you can open it! Also fixes dialog to make sense and characters to walk faster."
You'll want to read the mod page. Fixes quite a few things and has requirements.
MyrandaMiller91 released Wolf Armor Craftable and Sleek Light Wolf Armor Crafting...
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/159977
"Gives the Companions' Wolf Armor a crafting recipe, and edits the Sleek Light Wolf Armor (standalone) crafting recipe to make more sense, lore-wise."
Requires sleek wolf armor, but does not have a requirements section. Wolf pelts for wolf armor does make more sense. Thanks, but you need to work on the mod pages Myranda.
DEEJMASTER333 released USSEP Marked for Death Audio Fix Restored
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/159958
"Restores the audio fix for the Marked for Death shout that was erroneously removed from USSEP." Actually it sounds more like the audio files were accidentally compressed in the last update. This is a temp fix until the team has a chance to sort it out. If you don't use the marked for death shout you don't need this.
And finally Milandriel - Auri Patch by Julio005
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160001
If you use the Milandriel mod, this places Auri there, instead of Falkreath. Her Falkreath pod is still there but occupied by others. Thanks
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!

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Fredas the 26th of Hearthfires, and thank the divines, the weekend is nigh. The blessed moons have set, and it is once again time for this one to tend the inn for our most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...
Our brew of the day is Capetown Lungo, and the biscuits are fudge brownie cookies. Checking the hot sheets we have 37 new mods from the mix of sources. Let's dive right in
AthelwulfSkol released Salt Removal for RND as their first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160012
"Removes the salt requirements in recipes edited by Realistic Needs and Diseases, as well as some additions it makes, such as mead and ale"
Not the first, and this only edits the added RND recipes. Thanks
wbell03 released Fix Cave Exit Mesh as their second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160043
"Cave exits are hideous. You cant avoid starting at this ugly mesh anytime you leave a cave. It reminds you that you are playing a game from the stone age. I fixed them by matching the trimming with the ground texture. Blending for the win. Download and overwrite.
Enjoy
"
If you're using proper textures you probably don't need this. The author is getting tips in the posts. Let's call this a work in progress.
pixelartpeach released Hrothgar Soups - A Gourd Soup Mod
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160048
"Just a handful of simple soups based on Yeto's soup in Zelda: Twilight Princess. It's upgradable!"
Like the concept, unfortunately the author did not add proper survival / sunhelm / Ineed / RND / frostfall keywords, so more or less limited to a non-needs based game.
quietlychamil released Consistent Elderly Women
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160039
"Makes vanilla elderly women look consistently old with templates"
"This very simple mod uses templates to redirect their looks to another elderly female that does use the elderly race and so should look old in your game. I also gave them all hats to hide any fancy hairs you might have given them."
The old cat does not like the implementation. Or having racecompatibility as a requirement. But that's just a feeling. Grain of salt, needs testing. Consistent older people works just fine.
Lets see... AllieWadeMods released AW High Poly Male Housecarls Skypatched
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/159751
Boy toys need love too. Thanks
runescapebot released Companions - Njada and Ria Replacer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160029
Interesting... 20 somethings with really bad mascara Why not?
And finally Reduced Shout Cooldowns SE port by rhonjhonson
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160061
"Reduces shout cooldowns, but doesnt erase them completly like other mods"
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!

Goooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 27th of Hearthfires and another quiet predawn here on warm sands. It is once again time for this one to tend the inn, so excuse please while the ash pits are emptied, then vents cleared, and the fires rebuilt. This can get a tad dusty, so you may wish to cover your tankards for a bit... There, much better no? Now to put fresh water to the flame while the kettles are scrubbed, and the floors are swept and mopped...
Our brew of the day is from Indonesia, and the biscuits are Sweet Loren's chocolate chunk. Checking the hot sheets we have 39 new in the usual eclectic mix of jangles, patches, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa or two.
VampireFromBravil released Bookworm Redduces Study Time in Gate to Sovngarde
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160112
"For Gate to Sovngarde, it never made sense that the Bookworm trait didn't have a study time reduction. This small mod aims to change that. Study time is reduced."
GTS would not be a hard requirement, but immersive spell learning and biggie traits would be. Thanks, this is a reasonable patch.
JohnTheJohner released Telekinetic Spell Pack
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160099
"Vanilla friendly collection of telekinetic-themed spells. Why should Vampire Lords have all the fun grabbing people? Unleash your inner Jedi and make Nazeem rue the day he climbed the Cloud District stairs." LOL, Not saying a word... looks like fun
lilebonymace released Thieves Guild Holdup
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160024
"Improves the random encounter when a thief tries to rob you or gives you a gift if you're in Thieves Guild or Nightingale armor." Thanks, these little bits of added immersion do add up.
toostruus released Fire Dragon for Dragons SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160109
"This is a recoloring of 4thUnknown's Frost Dragon from Dragons SE.
To have it compatible with mods like Dragon Leveled List Fixes and USSEP Frost and Fire Dragon Correction."
TOOOOS! What can an old cat say. Great choice of model
And we'll finish up with Bathing in Skyrim - Wash Me - Renewed by MrStrangeT
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160032
"You can ask follower to wash your back."
You know, you have to keep your priorities straight. LOL, that kind of morning
And that will do for today. The ale was delivered on time last night, and the new batch of mead is ready. We're serving mudcrab scrambles for the early meal, and ale braised sabercat for the late meal. There will be a kettle of stew simmering all day as well for those that need to ward the chill. We-B-Open!

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Goooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Sundas the 28th of Hearthfires and it would seem the storm that blew through last evening took most of the humidity with it. It's a beautiful predawn here on warm sands. The windows are open, and there is a cool breeze. Kynereth smiles this morning. Anyway, the blessed moons have set and it's past time this one tended the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and the biscuits are Ginger. Checking the hot sheets we have 53 new mods in the usual eclectic mix. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye that doesn't jiggle over a fresh cuppa, or two.
Fernvud re-skinned two more skill trees. Thanks
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Fern ... ameId=1704
TheKraken86 released Conversations Raise Speechcraft - Synthesis
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160105
Uses AndrealletiusVIII's 'Conversations Raise Speechcraft', as a base for scripts, and Synthesis to apply them. This one will not poke, but with near 6x the number of patched dialogs lines, this one wonders how much Xp you get for farting.
theton618 released Agent Bonus Tweaks for Mara and Dibella
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160114
A reasonable buff of Mara to 25% magic resistance, but epic fail on Dibella. 25 points to 'H/M/S'? It should have buffed speech. Your game your way.
SkyHorizon3 released No Google Maps Skyrim
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/147105
"Skyrim will turn 14 this year, so time to finally change how the map works and see how well you know your way around Skyrim. Skyrim will no longer have a GPS system, so you will have to navigate using the landscape or locations."
It changes quite a bit, make sure to read the mod page. The old cat likes the concept, but chooses to play with the hud off completely. Configured via INI file. Thanks
Moving on to real estate and a fresh cuppa...
Aezandris released Riverwood - A few tweaks
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160140
Ferns and grass growing out of 'farm house' thatched roofs, puts the smith in a cage, and adds ivy... Oh, and chimneys. including the center of the inn roof? Oookay. Thanks
braxusx released Riften Docks Redux
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160143
"An extension addon for the Riften Docks that also includes your own personal camping area near Merryfair Farm, among other things."
"What started out as a personal project of mine for my mod list eventually turned into an obsession."
Well... It should have been called braxusx does Laketown. LOL This will mess with so many mods. Including CFTO, and fishing. Makes the canal gates a joke as both sides are now blocked... What's not to like This one gets a soggy cookie
W1terr released More mushrooms (A.K.A Pandora)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160146
"Want Falkreath to feel more like a magical forest? This mod adds more mushrooms for extra fantasy vibes. ESL-flagged" Your game your way
TheOneTrueFuzzBeed released Man's Best Friend - A Meeko's Shack Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160130
"Man's Best Friend is an attempt to add much needed life into one of the most iconic minor locations in all of Skyrim. Finally, Meeko the dog has a home worthy of him and his late master. This mod includes a brand new model for Meeko's Shack and lore friendly clutter additions to flesh out this solemn abode."
Ah'vrie likes this new model, and even the ivy is fitting for once. This one gets a cookie
lets see... effervessence released Window Emittance Consistency (WEC)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/158918
"Makes window emittance consistent and sensible across all exterior spaces."
The author put some real work into this. Well done. Definitely worth a read. The old cat is calling this a WIP for now based on experimental support for DynDoLOD. Tracking for now.
megnoeu released Holidays -x- Light Placer
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160128
"Attaching real lights to lanterns and carved pumpkins." Holidays, and light placer required of course. Thanks
Here's a "Well that was Quick" moment
Caenraes released Bread Modders' Resource
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160156
"A pack of Bread models free for anyone to use for their own mods." And yummy looking
QueenAcademe released Diverse Bread(01b) (BOS)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/136511
"Utilizes the power of Base Object Swapper to diversify the models and textures of Skyrim's bread(01b)"
And it's already been added to Gate to Sovngarde. "Well that was quick" LOL
We'll finish up with Archon - Faiths of Tamriel by aljoxo
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160141
"Archon is a comprehensive reimagining of Skyrim’s religion system, enhancing the vanilla framework and introducing new deities with unique, powerful boons." "heavily inspired by and based on SimonMagus' Pilgrim and 3BFTweak's approach to religion."
Well considered and reasonable buffs and penalties / restrictions. Quite a bit to read but worth it. This one gets a cookie.

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Morndas the 29th 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 wax through the final quarter tonight. It's time once again to hone those silver weapons. Anyway, it is once again time for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...
Our brew of the day is Stockholm Lungo and plenty of chocolate chunk biscuits. Checking the hot sheets we have 44 new the usual band of eclectic miscreants. Lets see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa or two.
FremiBR released three spypatcher tweak mods today. The amulet buffs are a tad OP
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Frem ... ameId=1704
Sulhir released Alice's Mushroom
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160262
"There's a pair of totally-safe-looking mushrooms near the Guardian Stones underneath a tree. Definitely edible." Chasing white rabbits, what could possibly go wrong?
Axarien released Spooder Remover - Arachnophobia Helper
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160222
"Provides a comprehensive spider-to-bat experience while maintaining game balance and mechanics." Not the first, but an interesting take. Turns them into bats, and alters the death drops and egg sacks as well. Thanks, the should help quite a few. Have a cookie
Lets see... RyokohMods released Legends Of The Past
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160034
"Legends Of The Past is a mod that brings a new challenge to Skyrim for adventurers and collectors" Yet another treasure hunt, but some of these cards also offer buffs. Gotta get them all
Schlitzohr released Falkhurst (A new version of Sunthgat)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160213
"Adds the small settlement Falkhurst south of Falkreath." With new quests, and a new name. All the new dialog is AI voiced. Thanks
runescapebot released Literal Who - Female Vigilants Replacer (High Poly)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160232
"Replaces the vanilla generic female Vigilants."
"These three are test subjects because I purposely changed their facetint filepath in their head meshes .nif to be directed towards a non-existent folder. From my limited testing, they just work™. " The old cat is unsure of this one... Needs testing in game. Thanks
Sun74 released House of Horrors Alternate Ending - SSE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160226
"Adds an optional good-guy ending to the House of Horrors quest. Reupload of the SE port from Bethesda.net to Nexus for better accessibility."
The old cat stopped doing that quest altogether. Ah'vrie might have to test this one.
And finally BlubboDE that isn't trees!
Auriels Shield Reforged and Upscaled - by Blubbo
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160196
"Upscaled Textures for Auriels Shield" "And yes, this upscaling process is AI influenced"
And also beautiful. The old cat will probably add type B in 4K. AI or not, both versions are stunning. Have a digital cookie, share it with your bot
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!

"Adds the small settlement Falkhurst south of Falkreath." With new quests, and a new name. All the new dialog is AI voiced. Thanks
runescapebot released Literal Who - Female Vigilants Replacer (High Poly)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160232
"Replaces the vanilla generic female Vigilants."
"These three are test subjects because I purposely changed their facetint filepath in their head meshes .nif to be directed towards a non-existent folder. From my limited testing, they just work™. " The old cat is unsure of this one... Needs testing in game. Thanks
Sun74 released House of Horrors Alternate Ending - SSE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160226
"Adds an optional good-guy ending to the House of Horrors quest. Reupload of the SE port from Bethesda.net to Nexus for better accessibility."
The old cat stopped doing that quest altogether. Ah'vrie might have to test this one.
And finally BlubboDE that isn't trees!
Auriels Shield Reforged and Upscaled - by Blubbo
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160196
"Upscaled Textures for Auriels Shield" "And yes, this upscaling process is AI influenced"
And also beautiful. The old cat will probably add type B in 4K. AI or not, both versions are stunning. Have a digital cookie, share it with your bot

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!

Re: Coffee with an old Khajiit
Gooooooood Morning Tamriel!
Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Tirdas the 30th of Hearthfires and a beautiful predawn here on warm sands. The blessed moons have set, and it is time once again for this one to tend the inn. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...
Our brew of the day is from India, and the fresh biscuits will have to wait for Ah'vrie to visit the markets a little later. He thought there were plenty, yes he did, but then that does look suspiciously like a badger print in the crumbs. Happy to make more. Checking the hot sheets we have 41 new mods in the usual eclectic mix of jangles, patches, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa.
andrewpk released Better Magic Lighting (All-in-one) as a first SSE mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160313
"Original candlelight and magelight (along with their respective spellbooks) replaced with Sky Blue version. All other spellbooks can be crafted at a tanning rack using either the candlelight spellbook or the magelight spellbook. I also changed all the orbs and the hand casting art to match each light color, compacted formids, and flagged the esp as esl."
Thanks, we love choice. Making this esl was a nice touch. Have a cookie
OmnipotentYouthSociety released ...(CFTO) NPC Visual Consistency SkyPatched
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160276
"CFTO replaces vanilla carriage drivers and ferrymen with custom NPCs, causing most visual overhaul to ignore them. This mod uses Skypatcher's feature to solve that."
Their first non translation. Welcome. Like the solution, not thrilled with NPCs, but thanks
d4rkmxxn released Sanctuary of Dibella as their first non Russian translation
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160337
"This mod adds the Sanctuary of Dibella near Markarth."
Interesting first mod. Not going to poke. It would have looked much better without the two platforms stacked to the left of the statue. Uses the PSBoss model. Thanks
GhoulSmasher released Skill Books Randomized
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160172
"Randomizes all hand placed skill books in the game."
Well that should raise a little havoc a few fetch quest markers LOL. Thanks?
IWantATardis released Imperial Wood Beams SMIMMED
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160291
"Not sure if these have been done already, but i noticed them on a playthrough so did these. Just 8 meshes from the dungeons/imperial/clutterkits folder. Lightweight, will work with any retexture as long it's the same layout to vanilla."
Definitely rounder, not thrilled with the ends. Smoother would draw the eye less. Thanks
EEKs Skyforge
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160281
"This a mesh replacer for Whiteruns Skyforge. I've added logs, coals and more flames to it making it look a lot more realistic and grander to better represent it's legendary status."
While no self respecting Smith would throw green wood in the forge, Ah'vrie does like the idea of the skyforge being unique. There's a patch for Embers as well
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!

"Talos' Tease is a brothel tucked behind the home of Whiterun's most devout Talos worshiper. Inside this house of ill-repute you will find permanent lodging, a place for your followers to relax, and some ladies looking for new clientele."
And the interior, which looks larger then dragonsreach tucks into a stone archway... Of course it does LOL
sashascum released Potion of Perfect Touch

The blessed moons have set, and it is once again time for this one to tend the inn for out most honored guests. Excuse please while the fires are stoked, and fresh water is put to the flame...
Our brew of the day is from India, and the biscuits are Lemon. Checking the hot sheets we have 54 new mods in the usual mix of jangles, patches and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches an old cat's eye over a fresh cuppa or two.
ddmlink released Immersive Environmental Storytelling Skeleton

"Relive the journey of Skeletor" ... "Added Skeletor's remains along with every item he collected in his spooky treasure adventure" Oookay, Thanks?
Faeylia released Saga - Perks of Skyrim
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160431
"Saga - Perks of Skyrim aims to stay true to vanilla by adding a few new perks, but mostly changing the progression throughout the perk trees."
Obviously another for the pile, but not badly done. Basically makes some of the better perks a little lower on the skill ladder, and most of the top tier perks are now 90 not 100. It adds a few new ones as well. Worth a look. Thanks
MikoMuto released College of Winterhold Stair Lighting
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160452
"Adds lighting to stairs in College of Winterhold"
Facepalm... This fixes a totally a load order created problem that you don't have.
zzjay Beast Feet - SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160207
"Adds dedicated foot mesh for beast races, with its own handpainted texture.
For Argonian and Khajiits."
And nicely done, though it appears to be for the vanilla beast pallet. May not match well with some of the replacer mods. Still cookie worthy.
And finally Hagraven - New models and Textures by Mandragorasprouts
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160407
"Replaces hagraven models and textures. NO ESP."
Definitely captures the essence of ugly. This one gets a cookie. It caught Xtudo's eye also

Ah'vrie will be traveling so the brew of the day is a mixed blend of leftover roasts. Currently Indonesia and India. A very interesting blend actually. The biscuits are chocolate chip. Checking the hot sheets we have 62 new mods. Let's dive in over a fresh cuppa.
Krocified released Simple Fishing Overhaul - FLM Addon More Mods Support
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160491

Rezental released BodySlide to CharGen python script converter
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160483
"A simple python scripts to convert BodySlide preset into RaceMenu CharGen preset."
That will make creating followers even easier... The stretched neck crowd will love it. Thanks
rhonjhonson released Perks halved level requirements SE port
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160517
"Halves perk level requirements"
Porting noob cheats seems o be this ones new hobby. Your game your way.
youngsmeagol released Aggressive Adventurers
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160472
"There is a random event quest called "Aggressive Adventurer" that I really like in the game. It's those little quests where an NPC attacks you and his/her name is always just their race. I always felt like those events didn't trigger enough so I decided to do something similar."
Only this one's 'adventurers' are buffed, skilled, perked, and level with the player. Requires the Easy NPC perk progression framework by this author. Thanks.
And finally we have 12 NPC overhauls, converted to skypatcher by Inkira
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Inki ... ameId=1704

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Loredas the 11th of Frostfall and wage slaves rejoice the weekend has arrived. It's a stormy 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 ash pits are emptied, the vents are cleaned, and the fires are rebuilt... You might want to cover your tankards for a bit, these grates are filthy after missing a week. There, much better. Ah'vrie always likes to start the weekend off with happy fires. Now to put fresh water to the flame while this one scrubs the kettles and sees what's ready to harvest in the garden...
Our brew of the day is Inspirazione a Venezia, and fresh biscuits will have to wait on the markets a little later. Ah'vrie has been visiting family so checking the hot sheets for the week we have 337 new mods. Needless to say this will be a limited review of what catches the old cat's eye, and many slipped through the cracks.
neckmop released Dealing with Backstories - Revived as their first mod. Welcome
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160657
"Streamlining and mechanical simplification, extra choices in existing categories, new categories, bugfixing, rebalancing, etc. etc. Check the 1.0 changelog notes for a full changelist over DwB" You'll want to read the mod page. This makes quite a few edits to DWB
salva1231 released Abandoned House as their second mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160905
"a abandoned farmhouse you can find near riverwood and the standing stones"
How unexpected LOL. Thanks
Varangian94 released 2, adds a wizard to Falkreath, and buffs Bruca's leap Redoubt.
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Vara ... ameId=1704
RubeArt released their first two mods last week. Welcome
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Rube ... ameId=1704
A morrowind style shield enchantment, and buffed frostbite venom recipes. Thanks
inscenique released Arcane Apparitions - Illusion Spell Pack
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/161139
"This mod adds five new illusion spells to your game. The spells all create random Illusions which distract and/or attack the targeted creature." You'll want to read the page here as well. These are actually well thought out, and illusion magic could use a little fresh blood.
TheHappySkeleton released 2 'improved interiors' as their first mods. Welcome
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/TheH ... ameId=1704
Quite nicely done to be honest, but will not play nice with other mods. Worth a look.
MichaelDovah gave us 5 last week
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Mich ... ameId=1704
2 houses, 2 pairs of followers, and a complete female NPC overhaul... A bit cookie cutter, and this one has a thing for freckles LOL. Worth a look
TheOneTrueFuzzBeed released Unfortunate End - A Riverside Shack Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160761
An interesting new model, and appropriate clutter. Thanks, worth a look
ShinglesCat released SC - VanillaPlus - Common Furniture
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160762
The old cat is not really thrilled with the textures, and pine needles instead of straw on the beds... Everyone needs a hobby. Pass but thanks
GeraldMods released Unique Falmer Blood Elixir
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160824
"New mesh and textures for the Falmer Blood Elixir." well it's green
Thanks
SassiestAssassin released Sassy Salt and Wind Hair Retexture (Vanilla and KS)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160675
"Edits Salt and Wind textures to have a little more depth. Covers Vanilla and KS Hairdos."
This is a noticeable improvement on the normal maps for over 3600 hairs. Definitely worth a look and a cookie.
4thUnknown released Storm Atronach SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160837
"Storm Atronach redesign and/or a new summonable creature"
An interesting new model. A little too 'solid' for this old cat's taste, but thanks.
And our mod of the week... We do have one
Showcases of Skyrim - A Display Case Replacer by sothasimp
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160620
"A mid-poly 2k-4k model and texture replacer for the vanilla display cases as requested
Optional BOS/Model Swapper Color Variance, Destructible Display Cases and Security Overhaul SKSE patches provided."
Highly detailed, and nicely textured with fixed glass as well. This one will probably make the old cat's build. This one gets 2 cookies and the top slot.
And that will do for today. The ale is fresh, the mead is about to turn, it should be ready by the time this one gets back from thew markets. 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!

Quite nicely done to be honest, but will not play nice with other mods. Worth a look.
MichaelDovah gave us 5 last week
https://next.nexusmods.com/profile/Mich ... ameId=1704
2 houses, 2 pairs of followers, and a complete female NPC overhaul... A bit cookie cutter, and this one has a thing for freckles LOL. Worth a look
TheOneTrueFuzzBeed released Unfortunate End - A Riverside Shack Overhaul
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160761
An interesting new model, and appropriate clutter. Thanks, worth a look
ShinglesCat released SC - VanillaPlus - Common Furniture
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160762
The old cat is not really thrilled with the textures, and pine needles instead of straw on the beds... Everyone needs a hobby. Pass but thanks
GeraldMods released Unique Falmer Blood Elixir
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160824
"New mesh and textures for the Falmer Blood Elixir." well it's green

SassiestAssassin released Sassy Salt and Wind Hair Retexture (Vanilla and KS)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160675
"Edits Salt and Wind textures to have a little more depth. Covers Vanilla and KS Hairdos."
This is a noticeable improvement on the normal maps for over 3600 hairs. Definitely worth a look and a cookie.
4thUnknown released Storm Atronach SE
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160837
"Storm Atronach redesign and/or a new summonable creature"
An interesting new model. A little too 'solid' for this old cat's taste, but thanks.
And our mod of the week... We do have one

Showcases of Skyrim - A Display Case Replacer by sothasimp
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/160620
"A mid-poly 2k-4k model and texture replacer for the vanilla display cases as requested

Highly detailed, and nicely textured with fixed glass as well. This one will probably make the old cat's build. This one gets 2 cookies and the top slot.
And that will do for today. The ale is fresh, the mead is about to turn, it should be ready by the time this one gets back from thew markets. 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!
