Feeding the empire, one roast chicken... or pork chop... or rabbit steak at a time! Cyrodiil demands MEAT! Ever notice how there's no real farming presence in Cyrodiil? Except for some really small isolated places, there's perhaps one major operation going on outside of Skingrad. And they make wine. Wine is great and all, but where do folks get the meat? I mean the good meat. Chicken, pork, rabbit. We have plenty of mutton, but, well, mutton can only go so far before it gets old. There's also a noticeable lack of traditional crops being grown anywhere on any kind of meaningful level. So I got bored while thinking about this and decided it was time to do something about it! I searched high and low and found only a small number of farming mods. The usual. Sheep, sheep, sheep, and oh, more sheep. Wonderful. Got the mutton sources covered now. So I'm attempting to fill in some of the gaps. There were a number of other good farming mods but they all landed in locations that were less than ideal, at least for my game. The UL team has someone working on a grand implementation out by Anvil, so I figured on letting them take care of that. So why Faregyl? What's so special about this place? Nothing really. When I scouted for locations it wasn't used by anything I could find. So I figured it was as good a place as any to stick some small farming operations. This mod adds a pig farm, chicken farm, rabbit farm, some traditional crops, and a local smithy to the Faregyl area. Instead of an isolated sleepy old inn, now there's a useful farming village to help sustain the population. Each farm is owned by an NPC who has a work schedule and a normal eat/sleep schedule. Don't try and mooch off the stuff though. Killing the livestock or stealing the crops is going to make someone angry if they catch you! There's also a local smithy who will repair gear and sell mundane supplies and equipment. He's got an ox to pull his cart, but the ox is mean. Don't mess with him. There's also two local legionaries who patrol the area to help keep the peace. And of course, the abandoned gold mine. Something the locals are reluctant to talk about.... Requires OBSE 0019b or higher.

This is homes for the player I made for the final exam of the CK basics course DarkRider kindly put up for us here. Thank you so much! This mod adds two houses for the player to buy: Whitewater Farm, located in Whiterun hold, east of Whiterun city, near Battleborn Farm, Eir's Rest, a small house situated in Riverwood, behind the Sleeping Giant Inn. -------oOo------- Permissions: No redistribution.

Once this done, launch the game, click on "mods" on the menu page and place it at the lowest place possible in your load order, using the "X" key and the up and down arrows. -------oOo------- Requirements: Dawnguard Hearthfires Dragonborn Installation: extract the content of the archives into your ~\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data directory.

Can the player move with spouse and children in the houses? No. I had this in mind but, as a player myself, I felt the need for a place that would be for my character only, a place to crash and rest and heal and think and feel safe. And maybe keep stuff away from children. -------oOo------- Tip: The game has trouble "remembering" where you placed objects when you decorate your house; if you drop objects in your house and place them immediately where you want them to be and leave the house, you'll find them scattered on the floor when you come back. There is a simple fix to that glitch: drop the objects you want to place in your house on the floor, leave the house, come back into the house and place them where you want them to be. Fixed! -------oOo------- I - Whitewater Farm: As it's name says, Whitewater Farm is a farm. It's fully functional and tended by an old couple of Nords, Allia and Bjorn. The current owner fled the country just after Alduin flew over his head after destroying Helgen but Allia and Bjorn decided that they would stay. Location: Whitewater Farm is located in Whiterun hold, east of Whiterun city, near Battleborn Farm. How to get it? Like all the other player houses, Whitewater Farm can be bought, the condition being that the Jarl permits that you buy property in their hold. As far as Whiterun is concerned, you will be allowed to buy the property after you have given the Dragonstone to Farengar. To do so: go to Whitewater Farm and pick up the note that is pinned on the door, gather 10,000 Septims, go see the current Jarl's steward in Whiterun. In exchange for the money, the steward will give the player the key to the main house and take the note. What does the player buy exactly? The player buys the entire farm and all it's dependencies: buildings and animals, except for the dog. Old Boy, the dog, belongs to Allia and Bjorn and is not for hire. Allia and Bjorn live in the basement of the farm; they don't own it, the player does, but, all its content belong to the couple. Taking anything there is stealing. What about safe storage? the main house is a safe storage in itself as it will never reset. Anything the player takes, whether it's displaying on furniture or stored in sacks, barrels, chests, cupboards, dressers, end tables, will never come back. Anything the player puts there will stay there. the house contains three bookshelves set to contain up to 6 times 18 books. the basement being Allia and Bjorn's home, it resets. all the containers outside reset. What else? Old Boy Allia and Bjorn will not respawn once they have died. once a week, on Saturday morning, Allia will spend three hours cleaning the house. Allia sells food and produce from the farm, once a month, beginning one month after the player bought the farm, talk to Allia, ask her how the farm is doing and she'll give the player their share of the profits the farm generated. -------oOo------- II - Eir's Rest: Eir's Rest is a small house situated in Riverwood, behind the Sleeping Giant Inn. How does the player buy Eir's Rest? go fetch the dragonstone for Farengar and deliver it to him, go to Eir's Rest in Riverwood and pick up the note that is pinned next to the door, gather 2,000 Septims, go see the current Jarl's steward in Whiterun. In exchange for the money, the steward will give the player the key to the house and take the note. What about safe storage? the main house is a safe storage in itself as it will never reset. Anything the player takes, whether it's displaying on furniture or stored in sacks, barrels, chests, cupboards, dressers, end tables, will never come back. Anything the player puts there will stay there, all the containers outside reset. Anything else? Yes! Eirs was a hunter, she died some time ago, probably killed by bandits. Her dog, Baldwin, survived and will greet the player when he comes close to the house, eager to follow the Dragonborn during his/her adventures. Note: the dog will force greet the player only one time, the player will know the dog's name after reading Eir's journal that she left on the table outside the house, hiring Baldwin will still allow the player to hire another dog or animal (tested with both Meeko and Vigilance, should work with the animals added by Dawnguard), the player can ask the dog to do things for him but you cannot have him attack people he likes. If you asked him to wait for you: -------oOo------- If you have any problem with this mod, please leave a message below. If you like this mod, please, leave also a message below and rate it! Thanks!

== Gray Fox Retreat v1.0 by WhoGuru == The Gray Fox was a title passed from generation to generation in the Thieve's Guild of Cyrodiil. Those who managed to survive their tenure, retired to the shores of Lake Honrich in Skyrim and a small, unassuming house on her shores not so far from the lost stronghold of the Nightingales; a handy location for forays into Riften, escape across the lake, and a few treasures left behind by former Foxes. Be sure you take a close look at the model of a Dwemer ruin's entrance. It is said the model was 'borrowed' from an Aldmeri museum and holds a secret entrance to another location. ------------------ The Gray Fox Retreat is located due West of Riften on the south shore of lake Honrich and just East of Heartwood Mill. The front door is locked but any self-respecting thief won't have a problem with that. There is also a horse should you need a mount. Savior is a cheerful boy, happy to thump mobs alongside you. == Requirements == TES V: Skyrim == Installation == Extract the GrayFoxRetreat.esp, Meshes, and Textures folders to your Skyrim/Data Directory then enable GrayFoxRetreat in the Oblivion Launcher == Uninstallation == Remove the following files and folders from your Oblivion directory: GrayFoxRetreat.esp Data/Meshes/Red/GrayFoxRetreat Data/Textures/Red/GrayFoxRetreat == Changelog == v1.0 -Public Release == Bugs/Incompatibilities == None Known == Credits == *Darkrider - Without who's patient tutelage I would not be the modder I am today. *TES Alliance for the brilliant Creation Kit Basics courses that helped me brush up on old skills and learn what had changed since Oblivion. == Resources Used == - Orient Set 1.0 by garnet18 - Wicker Set 1.0 by garnet18 - InsanitySorrow's Dwemer Telescope from the TESA Resource Kit == Contact == Contact WhoGuru on TES Alliance for prompt support. == Permissions == As everything in my mod is either vanilla content or a resource, you may do with it as you wish. If you use any resources from this mod, be sure to give credit in your readme to their authors.

A simple home for those of us who do everything in Skyrim before the main quest. This is a small and simple home in Riverwood. This is my second mod, so please Enjoy

Tafiir Hofkah Read-me V.1 ================= Description: ================= “Tafiir Hofkah†dragon tongue for Thief House, is a player home set in the Rift hold on the banks of Lake Honrich. With amazing views of Goldenglow Estate Snow-Shod Farm and Riften. There is a path that leads through the grounds to Nightingale Hall. All custom shelves and chests are safe to store player equipment. There is no real clutter on the floors of this house, which is personal preference. The house offers all what the player needs: A chopping block, a tanning rack and a smithy with a smelter in the basement.. Inside there are cooking station, enchanter, alchemy station, weapon racks, book shelf, mannequins. This is a WIP and more will be added as I understand the Creation kit. Installation: ============= Use the NMM to install/uninstall Version 1.0 ============= Nothing was deleted from the cell just moved. RockCliff08FallForestGrass01 (0008BF22) has been moved underground to make way for the house. Made in Creation kit 1.8.151.0 Compatibilities ============= Is not Compatible with any mod that changes the cell 41, -26. But Lanterns on the Roads works fine with it. To do list ============= this house is meant to be given to the player at the end of the mean thief guild missions, and will be adding a quest to get the house. Nocturnal spell. I would like this house to appear out of the mist after Nocturnal gives it back to Karliah. So that the cell would look like it does in the normal game until that time. To add back story to this. This mod was done for the TESA finale exam. Recommend mods. ============= Vanilla Mannequin Script Fix by SluckyD http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/10652 Lanterns on the Roads by Svabbarjack http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/10143 ================= Contact: ================= lonewolfe10@ SteamCommunity ================= Credits: ================= Thanks to Bethesda for creating Elderscrolls. And to Rob for testing it.

Mammoth's Rest Farm is a cozy but spacious player owned house near Whiterun with all crafting stations, plenty of storage, an indoor rock pool and nice sunset views from the patio. Named after the mammoth bones sitting in the middle of the grounds (and because I love mammoths). A lore friendly place to relax and display your stuff, conveniently located smack in the middle of Skyrim. On the farm grounds you will find a garden, a Vendor in his own house and a stable for your horse. The key to the house is located in a locked strong box in the crafting shed, or can be found on the previous owner. You'll find a hint to his whereabouts on the note by the front door. Features: - Alchemy Table - Enchantimg Table - Cooking Spit - Player bed ("Well Rested" Bonus) - 16 Mannequins - Weapon Racks - Shield Racks - Display Cases - Bookcases - Safe storage, indoors and outdoors - Indoor freshwater pool - Archery Range - Tanning Rack - Smelter - Forge - Wood Chopping Block - Grindstone - Workbench - Harvestable Plants - Respawning Insects - *NEW* more space to park your followers Enjoy! ================================================ Installation: Extract the Mammoth's Rest Farm.rar and copy/paste the Mammoth's Rest Farm.esp into the Skyrim/Data-Folder, activate it in the launcher. ================================================ Conflicts: With every mod that alters the same cells (2,-2 and 2,-3). See screenshots for the exact location. ================================================ Known Issues: - The bed in the Master Bedroom does indeed give the "Well Rested" Bonus, although the appropriate message is not displayed. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch fixes that. - The Mannequins may behave strangely. I recommend the Vanilla Mannequin Script Fix Mod - http://skyrim.nexusm...le.php?id=10652 - When exiting the front door it may take a while to load, due to the amount of stuff that needs to be rendered, and having it all in the Tamriel Worldspace. ================================================ Thanks to: Bethesda for making another fantastic game tesalliance.org for getting me started on modding
