"Just a damn bedroll" mod

Recommended Posts

Hello.

 

Characters like to travel lite. Can you imagine your elf mage carrying a tent half way across Skyrim in their large backpack so they get a nights restful sleep before clearing out that bandit's lair? Well, they probably had a heart attack before arriving.

 

Can we get a "Just a damn bedroll" mod? - no lantern, no sleeping animation, no block of wood to sit on, no firewood chopping axe, no cooking pot, no removing gear, no campfire, no tent - JUST A DAMN BEDROLL (Lydia or whoever can sort their own sleeping arrangements). I am not a modder but figure in the grand scheme of things this might be fairly reasonable to make? And would work nice with all the sleep required survival mods.

 

I like many of the mods out there they are great but modders keep pushing them beyond the initial reason for why they created them - then you get a bedroll with everything or even a vampire's bedroll or a (insert whatever type of) bedroll...

 

Such a mod for Skyrim or SE whatever floats your boat would be great to see (wet and cold has backpacks showing bedrolls being carried - I just wanted to be able to use that bedroll).

 

Made at the tanning rack - NOT the forge (you don't use a anvil, blacksmith hammer and chunk of metal to make something you sleep in... right?). Or maybe even purchasable at the merchants.

 

Anyway, just a thought. Thanks for reading.

Just say NO to conjuration spells that allow you to summon daedric bedrolls (+10 to sleep) by way of inter-dimensional portals from Oblivion at the characters leisure (I think Tentapalooza now allows for conjured tents. etc). Maybe I am just expecting too much...

It's actually really easy. Just to make sure I haven't made any mistakes in packaging it I've put a version for the original game and for special edition in my Dropbox WIP folder. Pick either SimpleBedroll_V10.7z or SSE SimpleBedroll_V10.7z depending on which version of the game you're using. If everything works I'll publish it properly.

cdcooly, tested your mod, last in load order - brilliant, just what was after - thanks

 

even enjoyed finding that ideal flat surface so the bedroll isn't immersed into the landscape with the added immersion of a good nights sleep (who wants to sleep on an uneven rough or sloped ground)

 

get that mod out there and available, simple and usable, I can and will use it as is - if anything to add could be a fur, because that's what the bedroll shows but keep it simple like what you've done

 

thanks for the add to my mod list

cdcooly, just a thought, maybe add 1 or 2 wolf pelt/s to the 4 leather as that's the easiest fur to get at early levels (with the added survival mods you'd want some type of fur in there anyway, even if it is just for aesthetic purposes)

 

3 or 4 leathers and 1 or 2 wolf pelt/s? = one bedroll

 

have a think about it and you definitely should list it

 

thanks again

Even though it's not really immersive I decided on the leather requirement simply as a way to avoid needing dozens of recipes or forcing the player to use specific pelts. I always build my bedrolls starting from pelts and in my imagination treat the conversion to leather as a "getting the fur ready" stage rather than actual conversion to leather.

 

I'm glad everything worked for you.
