After I more or less abandoned my WIP thread on this mod, I just went ahead and finished it up.
http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1083750-wipa-different-seyda-neen/page__p__15790955&#entry15790955

I've expanded and made improvements to Seyda Neen and added some features. I haven't played any Seyda Neen expansion mods before so any ideas that happen to be the same are either coincidental or plain obvious

Features:
- Docks with travel options to (and back from!) Hla Oad and Ebonheart and a fishing dock
- Marketplace selling a variety of items, e.g. clothing, food, crockery, jewellry; and a marketers' quarters for the traders to sleep in
- An inn with the choice of a double or single room for a night
- A shack and a house for sale, each to be bought from the Proprietor just outside Seyda Neen
- Done up shack district
- In general added more flora and other things to make the town a little nicer
- A house belonging to a slightly crazy NPC, with a teeny tiny "fetch this" quest

This is the biggest mod I've made so far, having only made little house mods before, so I hope it is alright, but please let me know if you find any bugs or have any improvement suggestions or ideas!
:wave:

I like this.

What textures are you using in those screens though?

Ah, I forgot to mention that. No textures, I just had MGE running when I loaded the game for screenshots. Thanks

I rarely use town expansion mods, but I think I'll give this one a twirl. Your take on Seyda Neen looks very friendly.

Looking at these screenies I'd say this is one of the nicer Seyda Neen expansion mods I've seen. The town is expanded nicely but is not turned into a megalopolis; Seyda Neen's sleepy charm and cozy-though-somewhat-suffocating backwater outpost feel are nicely retained here. I think you've done an excellent job with this, Aila.

The one thing I'm less sure about is the dancer. Most of the folks living in Seyda Neen seem to be a bit discontented with the place, calling it "this damp little squat" and "Swamp Fever Capital of the World," etc, etc. So I wonder if a happy dancer might not look a little out of place?

But other than that, your mod looks very nice and I will definitely give it a try in my next game.

Thanks guys. Now the mod is up on PES, I updated the OP with the link.



Good point.. maybe I can come up with a background story for her as to why she is dancing there and give her some dialogue on that topic, when I do an update on the mod.

QFT. And Seyda Neen is generally a place that I NEVER return to once leaving that very first time. I might have a reason to stick around with this loaded, though.

Thanks!

I've received improvement suggestions and a couple of error alerts from various people so I'll be making a second version of this mod sometime soon-ish. xD
