Khettienna's Lot-O-Mods!
last updated Apr. 05, 2011


Most of you probably know me as a house modder, but I have a bunch of other mods, most of which never get "advertised". As a jack-of-all-but-modeling, I tend to make whatever I need to enjoy my game as I go, if I can't find it elsewhere. This has produced a silly assortment of baubles. For better or worse, here's a full listing, in case you find them useful. Because there are so very many, I have kept the descriptions short. Please follow the links to the download pages to see details, if desired. For your perusal (and hopefully, enjoyment):

Little Stuff, Tweaks, & Fixes


Better Basemant Door
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/22871-1-1236539154.jpg
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139401 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22871
I hate the stock rotting basemant door, particularly when it's been placed in a middle- or upper-class interior. Use this mod to see the stock Chorrol or Cheydinhal doors instead.


Crucible Sewage Retexture
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/26142-1-1288410333.jpg
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139408 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=26142
I'm not a fan of stepping in sewage. I feel like Bethesda did too good a job at making Crucible yucky, in this regard, so I made this mod to replace the sewage with dark, wet mud.


High-Res Varla & Welkynd Texture Replacer
Preview Images: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/36814-1-1295999125.jpg | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/36814-1-1295999106.jpg
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139430 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36814
The base textures came from Meo's Ayleid Clutter resource. I color-matched them to stock, and created a new high-constrast glow map. Now all varla & welkynd stone in your game will be as pretty as Meo's.


Hunter Birthsign
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139412 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=23031
Tired of the stigma, Thief? This renames your birthsign to The Hunter, an archetype with similar attributes, to open up roleplay possibilities.


Kafei's Circlets Reforged
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139414 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=27952
Adds scripts to Kafei's lovely circlets so you can switch between armored or unarmored, large or normal size, and amulet or tail slot on the fly. Requires the original Kafei's Armored Circlets mod.


Replacement Main Menu Stuff
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/36513-1-1294496828.jpg
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139416 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36513
If you have the main menu movies disabled in your Oblivion.ini, you may be tired of that same old parchment texture as your main menu background. If that is the case, try this replacement; or, use the included resources to make your own.


Mark And Recall
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139417 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36026
Set of four simple Mark and Recall spells. SI-safe version available.


Nerf Alchemy
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139415 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=23032
I was tired of getting prematurely smart and rich from restocking my poison & potion supplies on every character, so I made this.


Put Me In My Place - PlayerInSEWorld
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139419 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36510
Automatically grants the player two lesser powers, which can be used to fix the "I HAVE NO GREETING" bug (among others) that occurs when the player is improperly moved to or from the Shivering Isles.


Remove Extra Data - Fix Containers With Missing Items
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139420 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29295
If you have a container afflicted with the missing items bug, fire this spell at the container to fix it. Use with caution. Requires OBSE.


Respawning Varla & Welkynd Stones
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139421 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29007
All of the varla & welkynd stones inside Ayleid ruins will now effectively respawn in place every 28 or 14 days, respectively.

After you've picked up your reward from the main quest, you'll find the Temple District repaired. Can be toggled easily back to "broken" anytime, if that suits you. Compatible with ImpeREAL Cities - Unique Districts & Better Cities.



If you have any questions or feedback, please comment on the files at TESNexus, where I will see it soonest. Or, feel free to post here, for mods that don't already have their own [Relz] threads. I will try to check regularly.

Please enjoy my stuff. ^_^

What? Eight hours and no replies? This needs to be brought up to the top where people who have taste have a second chance to see it.

Well, now that I'm here I would like to tell you that Respawning Varla & Welkynd Stones will never leave my load order. They'll have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands when I'm in my coffin. For me, it's one of those essential mods that do something the way it should have done in the first place. I can't imagine playing without it.

Thank you for all of your mods, Khettienna. Your mods have enriched our experience of Oblivion in ways you cannot imagine. :hugs:

Req: Khettienna's Lotto Mod

Respawning Varla & Welkynd Stones is definitely one of my favorite small mods. I've been a bit frustrated since day one of destroying the nice ambience they give in dungeons by looting them - but at the same time its moronic not to loot them as they are both useful and a good income on lower levels. In short, frustrated if I do and frustrated if I don't. So Respawning Varla & Welkynd Stones is just perfect and also works perfectly. :foodndrink:

Lots of other excellent mods as well - and some I've never heard of. Remove Extra Data - Fix Containers With Missing Items sounds really neat, for example. It happens very seldom but is very frustrating when it happens.

If nothing else, I'll be getting Benirus manor for the first time because of this!

I.. thank you! :hugs:

(That's all I got, I'm bad at this. :blush: )


I will get to work straightaway on Khettienna's Lotto Mod.

Love the neck seam expanded..Will have to talk to Vacuity and see get them add to Item Interchange..

Thanks for the KD Circlets now I do not have to use choose, I can just alt click and swicth to unarmored, so that I do not have to equip and unequip them has before..Nice Tweak..

That would be awesome! :celebration:

I have been "talked to", as they say... :happy:

Taking a look at Neck Seam Concealers Expanded, I can see the challenge/problem: you need a mechanism to distribute them to (give or take) every NPC in the game, both vanilla and mod-added. Item Interchange can do this, in principle, but it would take an inordinate amount of time for me to edit every NPC's inventory and it's also unfeasible to add support for every NPC in every mod this way (far too many thousands of NPCs in thousands of mods).

I think you'd be better off with a quest script that checked the inventory of all NPCs in range for the presence of a neck seam concealer and if they don't have one, add a random one. I know this is possible because a number of mods work on similar lines (typically adding tokens though), but I probably can't help you out with such a script as I'm more likely to mess things up than really help when it comes to scripts... That would guarantee support for every NPC added to anyone's game.

Vac

wow, I have some of these and did leave my 10's on Nexus, I didn't know about ALL of these though. I better get busy downloading. I'm glad you made this thread. I usually check an "uploaders" other mods on Nexus, but have been known to miss a few. I think you are awesome. Thanks. I'll start downloading tomorrow.

Thank you, phillygirl!



I can do this. I'd probably make it not 100% chance that an NPC would get one, though - it would just be weird for everyone to have one. I'll add it to the list!

Do that and you've got another downloader/user for that mod. Those neck seams can be a tad unsightly at moments...

Vac

If you want, you can take a look at script in my mod 'Nine divine robes' and adapt it for your need. It uses Obse and method works for all NPCs, mod added too.

Holy [censored], those houses look [censored] stunning! So jealous! Nice work. :thumbsup:

CoolShady, thank you!

washington - Excellent, that will save me a little time, thanks! I will probably have this done in the next few days, have something of a full plate at the moment with beta testing. :lmao:

Quick update!

The project I've had stewing for a bit, Horse Management, is near completion and undergoing beta testing. Here's the basic description:



When this is complete, I'll pick up where I left off on other projects. This one's been stewing for a long time waiting for an OBSE function (thank you, scruggsy!), so I had to give it priority.

If you'd like to suggest additional features that might be a good fit for this mod, now's a good time!

Since I'm waiting on beta testing, I thought now would be a good time to deliver on Neck Seam Concealers Expanded:



http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139399 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=34082

I also took the liberty of making some additional leveled list plugins for anyone who wants them (me). Enjoy!

Excellent stuff. Downloading and will take a look. Probably can't test in-game any time soon though.

Cheers!

Vac

I hope it suits you. Thanks for the prodding - I will enjoy this quite a bit myself! :celebration:

And thanks to some more prodding from the TESA Shoutbox, I am pleased to announce another mini-Relz:

High-Res Varla & Welkynd Texture Replacer
Preview Images: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/36814-1-1295999125.jpg | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/36814-1-1295999106.jpg
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=139430 | http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36814
The base textures came from Meo's Ayleid Clutter resource. I color-matched them to stock, and created a new high-constrast glow map. Now all varla & welkynd stone in your game will be as pretty as Meo's.


Enjoy! :happy:

A bit late to the party, but "Woohooo! :celebrate:" nevertheless!

Well if there's gonna be a party, I have everything we need to get it started...

In my Automagic bags!

Checking out the W & V stones texture replacers as we speak... they look great!

Thanks for all K.

Well, since you brought the good rum, I can overlook it. :celebration:



Oh-ho, I see what you did there! Glad you're enjoying it!

I'm getting a Warning in my OBSE log from Automatic Bags, it's been there for quite a while and doesn't Really seem to cause a problem, but is there a remedy??

It doesn't need a remedy! That large number of strings you're being warned about is the names, models, & icons of every Bag in the mod, which get saved to OBSE string variables so they can be customized by the user via the .ini file. It's not actually causing any bloat.
