Imperial Furniture Renovated 1.3

Download link: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=33996

Version 1.3 and onward now require OBSE ver. 18 or better.

Damien and Mischa have just renovated their store, Imperial Furniture, located just north of the Imperial City. They have purchased a fine collection of weapon racks from Loth. In keeping with the high standards of goods sold at Imperial Furniture, these are much better quality weapon racks than those normally found in Cyrodiil. They have also greatly expanded their line of paintings by acquiring a few special selections from the Paintings Galore collection by Trollf. These are exquisite paintings in a wide range of sizes that should suit any home. They have also expanded their regular selection of display cases, tables, chests and lights - mainly by offering more size options.

They have just expanded their selection again! Now they offer clutter items like miniature statues. They have also acquired upholstered furniture for the first time! And they negotiated a deal with Daleth to offer her ingredient storage shelves.

Come by and see their new selection!

New additions include:

• Entire collection of Loth's Better Weapon Racks
  
• A selection of paintings from Trollf's Paintings Galore
  
• Daleth's ingredient storage shelves
  
• A large selection of miniature statues and architecture
  
• An upholstered sofa, armchair and dining chairs
  
• Several tapestries from the base game
  
• Large and small display cases, as seen in guildhalls and castles
  
• Bases and pedestals for displaying items

See the readme in the download for full details.

Version 1.3
This version now requires OBSE v. 18 or higher. The major bugfix is that I have removed saved game bloat caused by use of PlaceAtMe function. Imperial Furniture Renovated still uses this function, but its affects have been mitigated by using an OBSE function to remove disabled references once the item has been placed. This release also has a large number of new items, including the introduction of specialized placement scripts with the addition of ingredient storage shelves. If all goes well, this is only the first...

I have also created a testing cell that you can teleport to to view all the new additions. Open the console and type 'coc AM7TestingCell' without the quotes. All the new stuff is in the large room. Everything in that room is from Imperial Furniture Renovated. To leave the Testing Cell, reload a saved game or type 'coc weye' to be teleported to the village of Weye.

Version 1.2
Both the patch and full release versions of Imperial Furniture Renovated have been updated to Version 1.2. This is a bug fix release. This will be the final update to the patch version. I plan to add more items and new functionality which will require Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE). The new functionality will require every script in Imperial Furniture to be modified and it would be a very long and tedious process to maintain both the patch and the full mod, so further updates will be done to the full mod only.

Bugs Fixed

• fixed collision on Fine Cupboard with glass doors. When you opened the doors, they would appear to open but you would be unable to place anything inside the cupboard. I have also tweaked the interior collision on the shelves in this cupboard so that the Ayleid Statues would be a little easier to place inside.
  
• added new option to options menu for chandeliers, wall sconces, fireplace, paintings, tapestries and wall-mounted tool racks called "All Done". When these items are moved using the options menu, the collision mesh on the object is not moved with it. This means that you won't be able to place other items as close to these objects as you should be able to. You also may find that your character runs into an invisible object. Once you have finished positioning these objects, select All Done from the options menu to shift the collision mesh. The object will briefly disappear and then reappear.
  
• stopped options menu from appearing when player character is sitting. Now clicking on the activate button while sitting will simply order the PC to stand, as it would with regular chairs.
  
• removed blank menu option for the display cases and cupboard with glass doors

Version 1.1
Both versions of Imperial Furniture Renovated have been updated to Version 1.1. There are a number of additions including 10 more paintings to bring the total to 33 and 7 more tapestries for a total of 11. I have also incorporated Critterman's icons as well as a few of my own so all items now have proper icons. The other big change in this version is I have switched the positioning marker for paintings and tapestries to a flat stone. This seems to make positioning paintings and tapestries much easier. See the readme for details.

The patch version of the mod also has the bug fix for the loss of access to items stored in unlocked chests, jewelry boxes and lecterns. If you are installing the patch version for the first time, you don't have to do anything special - your chests, jewelry boxes and lecterns will be converted to the new version when you pick them up or lock them in position. Until then, they will have "Temp" tacked on to their name so you know they haven't been converted yet. You don't have to convert them, but I suggest you do so.

In order to accommodate the additions, I have rearranged the inventories of Damien and Mischa. Have a look at the readme for details.

Wow, I was just thinking about redownloading the original mod today (I had to delete all of my mods due to a messed up load order), so this is a great coincidence.

I'll be downloading first thing tomorrow.

That's wonderful!
Great to see one of these great mods be updated.
Have you thought of more furniture?
Perhaps another shop?
I've had the idea of a SI version for a while but didn't get far.

Believe it or not, I don't own SI! So if you'd like to do one, please do.

In terms of furniture for this one, there are a few additions I'd like to make but I need to do some investigation first - remaining cagey at this point

I absolutely love the original mod, so you have my thanks for expanding it. :celebration:

One question I have: did you expand the tapestry selection at all? I have been using http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15998 for a long time, sometimes purely because it offers a greatly expanded tapestry selection in the furniture store it adds (though I love the huge ramshackle house it adds too). If no, then no biggie- I'll certainly still be using Imperial Furniture Renovated, I just won't "drop" Alt Shack.


Thanks.

No, I didn't add any tapestries, although I might look at that a bit. One thing I was thinking is that the Imperial Line tapestry is a bit small if you put it in the alcoves at Battlehorn, so I might offer a larger one of those. I did add a bunch of paintings though, so you might want to check those out...

Funny you should mention Battlehorn, as that is precisely the home I am looking to redecorate, since I like a bit (read: massive pile and heaps) more clutter than it has originally. I'll definitely be making use of the expanded painting selection- that's a really welcome thing, andalaybay, particularly since you added Trollf's, which are among my favorites.

Anyway, if you do eventually decide to add more tapestries, that would be lovely, since the original furniture store didn't really offer much selection in that area, imo. As it stands, thanks for the expansion of IC Furniture. You've made it even more useful to cluttermonkeys like me.

*waves "Hello" to andalaybay"

Sweet! This is a wonderful addition to the Imperial Furniture mod, I was looking for something exactly like this!

Hahaha... So, how are those meshes coming? Just teasing - thanks for dropping by

Brilliant! Love the idea of this update, and the additions sound great.
Any chance on incorporating these http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=25659 as well?

ABSOFRIGGINLUTELY!! You have no idea how much I hated the icons I didn't know this existed...

Thank you!

Excellent: 'cause I can't be arsed to put them all in again just for myself either!
:celebration:

Don't blame you I had a look at this already and it looks like he's created an icon for almost every piece!!

nice job. just looked at the newly added stuff. one of my favorite mods.

please check your pm.

I used the original mod as well, so I will be downloading this guy in a sec.


Thank you for sharing!

A bit of an update:

First, there appears to be an issue when using the patch version with jewelry boxes you purchased previously from Imperial Furniture. Please remove all contents from chests and jewelry boxes purchased from Imperial Furniture before installing the patch. In the original mod, jewelry boxes did not have the lock option and this means that you will lose anything stored in them when you install the patch. Chests could be affected as well if you don't have them locked in place before installing the patch, so I recommend you simply remove all contents before installing the patch. I'm currently looking into this issue.

Secondly, an update is in the works. I have contacted Critterman who did some icons for the original mod. These were never included in the original mod due to timing, but I am in the process of incorporating them into the new version. Critterman has also agreed to do some new icons for the additions and a couple of the pieces in the original mod.

I will also be adding more tapestries! I didn't realize how meager the tapestry selection was until greenwarden pointed it out I will also add some more paintings. Since Damien's inventory is already bursting at more than full capacity, I will be transferring the "soft goods" to Mischa to sell.

I've released the update I've been working on. I've added 10 more paintings (many of them huge) and 7 more tapestries. You'll find that the paintings and tapestries have a new position marker that should make getting these items in a good spot much easier. I have also added Critterman's icons and a few of my own so all items have proper icons. The bug in the patch version has been zapped Several other changes too - see the readme for details.

Thanks for the update to this lovely mod. :twirl:

You got your tapestries!! You were right, though, that was a pretty meager collection

Cool, nice to know that you added the icons, I downloaded because of them! LOL I didn't have the original so far, I prefer to deco in CS, but there are some things that could be useful (specially the chests). You could also dig the possibility to add some more nice fireplaces. Anyway, I think I'll re-download.

The place is cool, I also thought that it was too much far from civilization. However, if you put it too much near a city it'll conflict with a great number of mods, so, let it be. Ah, is there another mod that sells the vanilla furniture in the same way? I think I saw something like this.

Just a little bump to rescue this from oblivion. An update is in the works...

Hello Mr. Vegas

A question I should know the answer to but I do not. I use Storms & Sounds and the patches for various mods. There is a Storms & Sounds patch for Amajor 7 Imperial Furniture but it has Amajor 7 Imperial Furniture.esp as a master. If I modify Storms & Sounds to change that master to your revide mod it should work, no?

Nice update by the way.

Mr. Vegas? Actually there is a S&S http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8711 for Imperial Furniture Renovated

andalaybay, Mandalay Bay...never mind, it was late Thanks for the link, should have checked that first.
