EDIT* Corepc brought to my attention that the issue of floating fish had been resolved in the MMM version so I have updated this version as well, users can download the new omod or an updated esp.

This mod is intended for non MMM users, do not use with Diverse Waterlife.

Fish v1.1

This mod populates Cyrodiil's waters with the fish resources created by Sjors Boomschors and can be best described as an addon for Alive Waters by Windsurfer. The mod is fully functional without AW but you're missing a lot if you don't use it.

Version History
V1.0 - initial release
V1.1 - removes unnecessary files, general clean up, adds 2 new sizes of catfish to LL so optional esp no longer needed
added Fishing Fix by Caxton, this script fix enables fish from AW and Fish! to be caught with The Player Fishing Mod by Sarkandar.

-Added ingredients to the SB fish and set the ai packages to match AW.
(the fish share the same script)
-Added the fish to AW compatible leveled lists.
-Added some ingredients to vendors.

Mod now contains 41 fish and ingredients. Most fish have a fillet, some have scales, fins or a poison.
(please don't complain about the alchemical effects, if you don't like em change em!)
Fresh water fish spawn in the rivers and streams, saltwater fish near the Gold Coast and south of Leyawiin

Included fish:
-Amago
-Ayu
-Catfish
-Black Moor
-Blue Marlin
-Bluegill
-Sheephead
-Cherry Salmon
-Carp
-Dolly Varden
-Flathead Mullet
-Giant Guitarfish
-Herbuna
-Humpback Red Snapper
-Wrasse
-Sculpin
-Ricefish
-Seaperch
-Large Mouth bass
-Leopard Shark
-Lionhead
-Sharksvcker
-Mangrove Red Snapper
-Bluefin Tuna
-Weather Fish
-Angel shark
-Cod
-Rainbow Trout
-Red parrotfish
-Sandbar shark
-Seatrout
-Dozyou
-Skipjack Tuna
-Snakehead
-Steelhead
-Tanago
-Three Spined Stickleback
-White Spotted Char
-Yellowfin Goby
-Yellowfin Tuna
-Yellowtail Clownfish

You might get warnings about file overwrites when you install this with AW it's ok a few identical files exist in both mods, namely the ai script, the fillet nif and icon.
Sometimes you might need to swim around a bit before you will see any fish, take my word for it there are a lot of em.
Also on occasion you might see a fish lying on its side, when you get closer it will perk up and take off.
And lastly a note on performance, I have a very modest pc and little trouble running this mod as well as AW so unless your pc is ancient go ahead and give it a shot, you won't be sorry!
I'll leave the fish and their ingredients for you to discover.
The Player Fishing mod by Sarkandar will now work with Fish! and Alive Waters, as with real fishing catching fish in game takes time and practice, read the fishing mod instructions
carefully and keep trying it will work.

OMOD format
I also recommend using the Wrye Bash bashed patch.
Use at your own risk!

All credits go to:
Sjors Boomschors - fish resources
Windsurfer - ingredient nifs & icons, ai script and LL spawnpoints
Caxton - script fixes
All I did was adjust the ai and add the fish and their ingredients to the world.

Have fun!

Thanks Shad44

For Reposting the Full Version of Fish...

Has , I will state this do not use with MMM Diverse WaterLife which is much more streamline and lighter version of this Mod.

Now we may have some script update in MMM Waterlife that you may want to use has we got fish swimming from rock to rock and hunting each other and few other fixes has well.

Thanks for your input Core, I should have mentioned that this would "not" be compatible with the MMM version.

I don't think I'll be inclined to do any updates to this, I feel non MMM users will be happy with it as is.

Hope everyone enjoys the fishing!

Cheers

Thank you very much for this shad44 :icecream:

I was wondering if there are (or being planned to add) fishes in UL`s rivers and lakes.
I would also love to see fish added to the flooded Leyawiin in Bananasplit Better Cities.

When I first developed this mod I really didnt take into consideration mods like MMM and the various UL mods
Thanks to Core for taking care of the MMM version as for UL I'm not sure, this mod uses spawn points
that are scattered all over the games water sources, unless the UL mod in question
changes the underwater environment in some way I would think the Fish mod would work.
Perhaps try loading it last after a UL mod and just see what happens.

At this time I have no intension of making any further additions to the mod, but who knows!

I do see one change you should make to your version that we fixed with MMM version

Fish floating, all of your fishes are missing the spell abslaughterfishswim, this give them waterbreathing and will fix the problem of fish floating to surface once again..

Thanks Core I'll look into it.

I always considered the floating fish a minor issue but I'm happy its been resolved, thanks for giving me a heads up, I have updated my files. Users can download a new omod or an updated esp.

I have a merged omod version of Fish+AliveWaters+The Player Fishing Mod I call "Fishing in Cyrodiil" that I created for my own use, although these mods all work perfectly together thanks to a few small script fixes its a lot easier to load 1 omod as opposed to 3 and cuts down on data folder clutter.
I mention this because of a request to upload it as an optional file for Fish...I discussed such a thing with Windsurfer in the past and he had no problems with it, I'm also "reasonably" sure Sarkandar wouldent have a problem with it...is it worth thinking about? Should I forget it, release it as a new mod, upload it as an optional file for Fish, does anyone care?

I don't have a lot of time for modding right now so I don't want to mess with this too much but I could upload this as an optional file for my Fish mod, anyone interested would have the option of downloading the mods individually or the merged version?

Cheers

I`m interested, so if you could add the merged version as a optional download, I would appreciate it :icecream:

There is already a mod combining AliveWaters and Fish:
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=24728

Yes I know...it's not exactly the same thing.

I've decided to go ahead and upload the merged mod, if Windsurfer or Sarkandar have any issues they can contact me about it.

Fish is now available as part of a merged omod called "Fishing in Cyrodiil" which includes AliveWaters the Player Fishing Mod and several fixes, this omod is an optional download provided for convenience if you would like to reduce clutter, it requires no other downloads and if you wish to use it uninstall the stand alone versions of the mods first.
