THIS. I'd be all about this shiz, this sounds like something that could help when I will inevitably have to compromise and "seal in" the cell.

Thanks heaps you guys. My plan is to work out an area that's Lower Story and half of the Upper Story that are Interior, though with hallways and walls dividing things nicely so I can stack lots of stuff in them. Then, the other half of the top floor and a "patio" of sorts will be outside. That will use similar ideas with walls and things obscuring the view. I really, really like those mods you linked too. That dude's got it down to a bloody science. This will be my first house mod, with an eye to porting it to the PS4 (once I can afford SE on PC) so I'm going in knowing I have to be a bit modest in my endeavours, but I'm shooting high anyway.

Yeah, will do! And thanks. It's actually the anglicised version of my given name El Capitano Magnifico Pantalones, which is what my children know me as.

That is one brilliant and informative response mate, thank you so much for that! Holy cats, I'm all about the occlusion planes stuff. I read a bit about it a couple of years ago in some gamer's mag and am wicked stoked that I can actually implement some of those principles in my own creations. Seriously though, what a great welcome message to my first thread. You're aces.

NOICE! Very well-explained mate, thanks for that. I reckon I've just got to pick a spot outside and start playing around. See what happens.

I'm also brand-new at this and trying for the exact same thing (I think). You're trying to just build a house that isn't separate cells right? Where you just walk up, open the door and walk in instead of "entering" and being teleported to a new "interior" cell? I'm looking to do this with a section of my house, where maybe one half is an interior cell and one half is outside. Have any of you had success with this?

Hey all, new to modding so mostly speaking in theoreticals, but I'm looking to build a player's home that's got at least one part completely open to the world. As in, doors are open and you walk in and go into the kitchen and whatnot. Does anyone have any advice on this other than "Just get in the CK and play around"? Would love to hear from anybody that's messed about with this and had success. Cheers!
