Nefim Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Ok so, I know this is the adult section.. and some of the things I want in the home is why I am placing this here... Ok to start, I have been patiently watching the nexus and here since I started playing skyrim way back in the day. What have I been looking for? A player home worth having, but for vampires. The ones on the Nexus love to add un-needed items, such as overpowered swords and armor, companions, a crap ton of npcs... And then they leave out desired elements like Displays for my rare loot, holding cells, ( and when they do add the cells they fill it with gore..) I tried making my own but ...well...failed. Here is what I am looking for.. The idea : I want a house that is broke in to different cells. You have your Family house, big enough for your wife and kids, A secret vampire lair with a huge holding area for cattle and sex slaves etc. and last but not least, a secret vault with a display spot for every unique item in the game ( or at least as many as possible... I.e Jaggerfield but with spots for minor unique items like the poachers axe.. rueful axe etc). I like secrets, I like secret doors and hidden features ... I also like Immersion.. Interacting with the environment. I.E ( having to sweep cobwebs away if I was gone a long time... paying to build up the house, ), light-able fire places, etc. So to break this down 1. A house big enough to house the Family. The bed has to be vanilla so that Spouses enhanced can work with it. It also has to have a children's room with 6 beds to support Multiple Children Adoption mod. I would also like to have a place that horses are automatically stabled at so that with multiple horses, I can just hit the stable, pick the one I want and leave. As for crafting.. you can either put them in the house or a work house / shed off the main house... I would prefer it to be outside .. a well opened crafting area with a roof ... an Indoor outhouse ( elaborate on this later) compatible with private needs mod... I would also like a bath house attached to the family house.( compatible with Needs mods) .. However it might be hard due to lack of plumbing ( I want the mod immersive as possible) I would also like an Auto sorter for ingredients / components. It would be nice to have a working well for Needs mods too! 2. The vampire lair can be in a hidden cave ( cave door with secret switch) on the property. It would need to have a tunnel connecting to the family house. I want it to be non gore.. except in one room... Basically I want a lair with a master bedroom for the vampire lord, A place for Vampire wife and children should you have them ....A bath and outhouse. The bath can be an underground pool. ( you can even add a small tub of blood for bathing but it has to be connected to a room of bodies and blood containers ... to make it immersive.) I would also like bookshelves.. I use the unlimited book shelves mod ...and I grab every book I can when playing. I also need Cells for slaves and cattle. I like to collect unique NPCS not tied to quests, A recent development after I started using Paradise halls mod. I would also like a Display for all the " devious devices" I collect in my adventures. the plugs, the gags and binders etc... that way I can choose at a glance what I want to put on my slaves. 2.a It would be cool if a Sewer system could be put in under the outhouse above ground that connects to an underground river ( to get rid of excrement) . I got the idea when I used a vent in whiterun to ...do business when I was in prison and I watched the urine flow in to the underground tunnels under the vent...could even use the sewer system to connect the lair and house and Vault. 3. The vault. The vault is going to be tricky. I enjoy the Vault of Jagerfield but it has a few problems... The first problem is that the house is lacking when it comes to family. The second problem is that with all the mannequins and weapon racks in the same area as the collectables.. it leads to extended load time when entering. It also lacks quite a bit of displays for unique items. I was thinking a place like this but, Mannequins broken in to separate cells. I want a lot of mannies cause I am kind of an armor whore... I collect every piece of armor I find and don't have. I like to collect Guard armors and shields, etc. so maybe a wing with different cells dedicated to different armors ... A main cell to display faction armors and weapons. A hidden room with all the displays for unique weapons/ armor / deadric artifacts / paragon stuff / masks / elder scrolls etc. I would also like a place to put the minor unique items like the pugilists gloves, the bow of the hunt etc. I would also like ( but not need ) a room to display Thane items you receive. I like secrets, Secret rooms, Interacting with the environment. Such as turning fireplaces on and off, changing place settings at tables. Sweeping cobwebs away if I haven't been around a while... I like re-spawning gardens ( I.E Hearth-fire plant spots), Hearthfire ovens etc. 4. I am not sure what to do with followers / companions. besides the carls... and some custom followers I tend to not use them I hate traveling with them most of the time and I hate how in most housing mods they take over the main house as if they own it. Maybe if you could give them jobs around the place as you get them .. i.e Guard, Stable hand etc it wouldn't be so bothersome but I am always paranoid my spouse might run off the with pool guy....I guess give them a separate house to live in as well ... The house Mods I have elements of what I want : Underground bathouse : I would enjoy usable torture racks, more prison cells for single person, the large holding cell is fine. Working Incenerator, Auto sorter, I also like the Clothing Rack, the boot / gloves / helm shelves in the walk in closet. The adult artwork ... Jaggerfield : I like the vault but I find the lack of family space bothersome. I also like the fact that the autosorter is connected to the crafting so that I dont need to hunt down materials I have stored to craft. Hill house: the goth feel.. the interchangable rooms.. Dislike the fact it lacks displays, holding cells.. I guess I am asking for a HUGE player home in regards to features, So I do understand if no one can do it ... I don't mind if it is dependent on Dawn guard and Hearth-fire / Dragon-born because I have them, if this makes it easier then yay! Edit: I can't pay for the mod ...so asking me to fork over cash for it .... won't happen. But you will be doing the vampire community solid! isn't that worth something?
~magic~ Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 http://cube.wikispaces.com/How+not+to+start+a+mod http://www.creationkit.com/Category:Getting_Started Sorry mate, modding doesn't work like that. You'd actually use more effort to convince someone to do it for you than you would actually learning the skillset you need and doing it yourself.
Nefim Posted October 23, 2014 Author Posted October 23, 2014 Modding doesn't work like what? Ask and see if someone can/ is willing to do it? seems to work like that everywhere ... However, people not working on the mod for free is probably what you meant. I read those articles you linked already, and to be honest I know of a few mods that started as Starry Eyed Ideas and asked to be done... .. so the first one is full of Half Truths. Secondly, I want it done but it wont kill me if it doesn't happen. Maybe all this post will do is drum up or inspire people to work on an actual decent Vampire housing mod... which is cool with me as well, I don't have time to mod. if I did I would. Consider this more of an request / Inspiration thread and leave it at that. If it get's done it get's done ..if not maybe it will inspire new features to housing mods in the future. Loverslab modders are some of the best on the net, so naturally I would try my luck here to see if someone is working on something similar or if it can't be done.
