Coffee with an old Khajiit

[Avrie]

Goooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Turdas the 12th of First Seed And this tired old cat has to see the Shaman today, so only a small sip of the nectar of the divines until I return, and no biscuits before the blood letting? This is not healing, it's simply asserting their position of authority. Maybe just a small cuppa... 42 new mods and a few caught the eye.

skyram7 released Realistic Running Speed - Natural Movement
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174435
"A movement tweak that creates a more natural and immersive exploration experience."

Interesting take on the mechanic. Faster walking, but slightly slower running with less abrupt transitions. Needs testing, but this could be the final link in a walking game. And we'll forgive the AI artwork. It's not bad LOL Worth the read. DLed for testing

Acook1e released Inflation Framework NG
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174493
"a fast and reliable SKSE plugin designed to handle dynamic node scaling (inflation and deflation) in real-time"

This one guesses a patch for the new fertility mode mod will come shortly. Thanks

let's see... Scarabim is building a Khajiit harem. 4 presets today

LeoneKingzz released Sleep And Gain Perk Points At Skill Thresholds
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174500
"Simple mod that awards perk points at after reaching 3 distinct levels in a skill. Default set to 50, 75, and 100. Meant to be compatible with Sleep to Gain XP"

Enai tried something like this when Ordinator was first released. Interesting patch, but Sleep to Gain XP is a recommendation not a requirement so it's for everyone. Thanks

We'll finish up with Tomato's Windhelm - PBR or Complex Material
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174492
"Windhelm. In CS TruePBR or ENB Complex Materials."

well all bases are covered LOL. The texture set was intended as PBR, it works with ENB, but still has that decidedly bland PBR look. Your game your way. Thanks

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

Goooooooood Morning Tamriel!

Ah'vrie wishes you well. It is Fredas the 13th and thank the divines the weekend is nigh. It is a beautiful crisp 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 Starbucks espresso, and the biscuits are chocolate chunk. Checking the hot sheets we have 37 new in the usual eclectic mix of jangles, patches, and pointy sticks. Let's see what catches the eye of an old cat over a fresh cuppa.

Arka9d released three 'Ultimate analyzers' for MO2.
https://www.nexusmods.com/profile/Arka9 ... ameId=1704
Grain of salt and needs testing. This author has only done Russian translations before. This one smells of AI coding. No pictures of the plugins or results. They look useful, needs testing

Skyking Nordic Ruins Murals - Complex Parallax
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174573
"All new 1k, 2k, and 4k complex parallax textures for the Nordic Ruins murals"

Hard to tell any difference at all. These look good, but any improvement is hard to see.

HamsterSensei12 released Kralyks' Strongbox Replacer - BOS version
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174580
"Replaces 50% of strongboxes with Kralyks' lovely model using Base Object Swapper"

Pretty, and we do love variation, only in a world where even the lowliest thug has a sword or axe, calling a wooden box "strong" is a bit moronic LOL. Looks more like a bread box.

rhonjhonson ported Khajiit Is Any Color SE by Xx Fluffycloud xX
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecial ... ods/174559
""Khajiit Is Any Color" is a Skyrim Legendary Edition mod requiring RaceMenu and SKSE. It adds 52 optional warpaints (for the face) and a solid colored female Khajiit texture for the player. NPCs are unaffected. It is compatible with K.C.C.E Khajiit Character Creation Extended by Volno and Viking Cat Khajiit by DracoWarrior729."

Ah'vrie remembers this from oldrim, and is surprised it was not already ported. Thanks

we'll finish up with Silverstone Refuge -- Markarth Apartment Player Home by aureoy
https://www.nexusmods.com/profile/aureo ... ameId=1704
"A small cozy starter home in Markarth"

Lets see... the entry door is in a great location, could have used a single step... Lets just say the mash up of kit pieces is noticeable if you look. Could have been better. The interior is beautiful but way too much useless clutter... A cart of hay in the hallway level of useless. Elianora they ain't. That being said, The layout is nice and it's a great location. A few minutes walking around disabling 'crap' and you've got a nice starter home in the city.

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!
