[LE] Help with planning interior layouts


Recommended Posts

Good morning people!

 

I am currently (again) messing around with the creation kit and I'm trying to make a player home on that mountain west of Fort Greymoor near Whiterun. Nothing too complicated, but it should have a massive cave-system / dungeon / cellar underneath it.

While thinking about how I am going to do this, something came to my mind:

 

Is there any way to add something like little textboxes to cells in the creation kit? I think this would be really useful when planning interior spaces or dungeons. Because taking a screenshot of a place in top-down view and then loading it in paint and adding text to it is a pain in the butt. And when I am trying to come up with a room-layout for a dungeon I often move thing around and adding some sort of moveable textbox would be great. Like a marker it would of course be invisible in the actual game.

I know i could just place map markers, name them and make them disabled, so they won't show in the game. But the problem with that is that to know what the marker means, you would have to first click on it and you couldn't just see the text.

 

This may sound like a unnecessary thing but I often work on a project, then put it aside for a few weeks and then when I open the mod again I just think "What was I thinking this room should be?".

 

Basically like adding comments to a script, but for the cell view window.

 

Thank you for taking your time to read this and think about it.

NexusComa is referring to his personal way of doing in the real world nothing to do with the CK. I use powerpoint (or the open Office version) and that old classic sheets of paper and a pencil.

Oh! Yeah, like I said, it was a stupid question, but thanks for explaining, I now understand.

Thanks for the reply!
