Two New House Mods

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 10:51 pm

I have made two new house mods, almost a year after making my first.
I haven't had them tested by anyone, so I am reluctant to post them on PES yet, maybe some of you could take a look for me :)

The first is "Nori's Island"; the house is located on a little island just south of Seyda Neen, offers a place to sleep and a little storage, and also something to read about the unsolved mystery surrounding the previous owner (no quest, however.. but I am considering it, will have to learn more about quest making first).

** UPDATE ***

I've added a quest to Nori's Island, the new download link can be found here:

With thanks to cyran0 for the scripting help :wavey:

The second is "Alchemist's Place" which adds a home to Balmora, next to the Pawnbroker's shop. The ground floor has a sleeping place and storage, the deep cellar has an alchemist's work area and more storage. A little garden with diverse plants is outside with potted plants on the roof. I planned this mod for characters focusing on alchemy, feedback on this aspect would be appreciated (and on either of the mods, actually) :)

More info is in the readme of each mod. The Freewebs site I have linked to is still under construction. No screenshots up there yet, but will follow when Photobucket is working for me again :brokencomputer: :P
Thanks for looking!

EDIT: Here are a couple of exterior screenshots.

Only had a brief look.
The deep cellar is pretty cool. Everything seems to be functioning fine.

Thanks for checking it out!

I noticed myself that one of the barrels in the Alchemist's Place is a floating one, as I played it with a normal character, so I'll be making amends to that. Plus I will try add a quest to Nori's Island to practice quest making. I'll update this thread as I progress.

So the alchemist place is near the south entrance. Is it me or is the house somewhat buried into the hill?
Can you make some more screenshots of the mods? some of the interior please and more then one. Also some more exterior. 1 screenshot of each mod is not much and i like to see how the houses look like.

Yes, I will now add some more screenshots of the houses :) (added to the first post)

For the interior of the Alchemist's Place I made just one of each room from the angle I felt was the best, or would you advise at least two of each interior room? (From opposite corners perhaps - like I did on the Nori Island house interior).
The house isn't in the hill, I made a skyview screenshot in the CS to show it more clearly.

I will gladly take more screenshots from different angles if necessary.

I see now from the top view screen the house is situated at the foot of the hill. So it was just me with my strange view to it :P
Thanks for the screenshots. I think i got now an idea of how they look like. The houses look nice :)
One more question; how do you reach nori island. by boat? or by swimming to it?

The front view screenshot of the house does make it look like it's in the hill, really :D
Thanks, and the island is accessed via a bridge between itself and the mainland. It's not too far off the coast.
