Request: Real windows

Recommended Posts

Has anyone noticed the windows in this game is

kinda block all the vision from all directions ?

How come for years i could play oblivion with the

feature that you can see the outside from inside

cell or from the outside to the inside, now that

skyrim is allmost two years old i came across only

one mode that have this feature but its in the

wilderness, this feature works best at towns

making them alive and sound.

Please anyone who can help, this is the only mod

that is missing for me in skyrim

When you enter a home, you are entering a cell that contains all the "building blocks" and textures viewable from the inside only. To have a window where you could see through it would mean that you'd have to duplicate all the visual components that are outside the home just to be able to see it through the window. Since it is still part of the new cell you are creating, there would be no NPCs walking around outside unless you duplicated them as well. There's a lot of work to create a player home and adding this extra stuff is a whole lot more work just to be able to see out the windows. All these extras would have to be duplicated for every house with the windows. This is all because entering a house puts you in a separate "game space" (for lack of a better term). Technically, walking through a door teleports you to that separate "game space"; however, since this would most likely be a huge challenge (and I'm always game for big challenges, no pun intended), I think I will see what I can do.

I included a kind of big window with one of my houses, and indeed, it was kind of tricky to make it fit, so you would block seeing the void from the new separate game space, while keeping it realistic. But yes, it is possible, just complicated :)

Sorry for the late post, but there is a much. MUCH more simpler way. But, it might be VERY resource-demanding and takes time.

Rebuild the house, and make the doors open up, like 'wooden doors' and 'iron doors', and boom you're inside the building without loading time.

After you have that part cleared, make the window-glass invisible, and add some metal in the middle to make it look, umm, like in the age Skyrim is in.
