So i was bored this week, and so i decided to boot up skyrim again and play some, i tried to create a mod for myself but since im a noob at using the creation kit i screwed up.

Basically the idea is to create a tavern for me and my followers. ive been playing with a fresh nord character and decided to make a place to serve as a hangout for my little ''gang'' anyway since skyrim dont have a lot of places like this, i decided to create my own. i stumbled upon 2 thalmor agents who attacked me and my follower, after we killed them i thought it would be a great idea to build the inn in that spot, anyways.. concerning the mod, heres what i finished so far:

The cell is built and well connected to another door on the outside, after drinking too much coffee and staying for 10 hours straight staring at my PC monitor i managed to do that. so yay! its also half furnished and the other half i can complete by myself so i dont need help with that. now the things that are not working are:

1 followers cant enter the cell with me. and instead they stay outside.

2 when placing an NPC inside, they are not interacting with anything, they're staying still.

3 the lightning in the cell is a little bad and needs a bit more optimizing.

4 some objects, like trapdoor, firepit that i placed there are not appearing ingame. but i can see their shadow for example and in the CK i can see them also.

Lastly i made two merchants and placed them there, but they are not working as they should.

So basically the mod is half done, but i need some experienced modder to finish the last parts. i could upload the file and put a link here if someone is interested in completing this for me? i can imagine this would be fun for some if not a little easy. it would be a very huge help either ways!

1 & 2 are almost surely navmesh issues. Did you navmesh the interior and finalize both the interior and exterior where your outside door is?

For lighting, in fact everything you're working on, I cannot recommend the http://tesalliance.org/forums/index.php?/forum/113-esv-skyrim-school/ at TESA enough. I still refer to it from time to time on lighting and landscaping issues. It is one of the best courses and resources out there.

As for the merchants, http://www.creationkit.com/Creating_a_Merchantare pretty good for that.

I read the CK wiki before, thats how i managed to do all that stuff, kind of.. i know its a nevmash issue. but i cant understand what i did wrong. i absolutely dont have any modding experience before this. what exactly do you mean by finalizing the interior/ exterior ? anyway heres the CK file in case someone would like to take a look:

Like I said, you should go through the course at TESA. It will save you a LOT of time and frustration in the long run. The rest of us all had to learn through one way or another, and IMO this is the best out there for beginners. Here's the part about navmesh down towards the end of the lesson:
