Seeking a few Mods

[SyphonX]

I'm looking for a few mods to top off my enormous collection. I'm coming up dry in my searches and browsing on what I'm looking for, so I'll ask here..

 

In-a-nutshell; What I seek.

 

NPC Immersion Mods

 

I want to know the best mods, or the lesser known ones, that make the NPCs more personal in cities and abroad. I have Personality Idles 4, Pipe Smoking, and a few others. What I want is basically mods that that add NPCs who "breathe life" into a robotic city. NPCs that huddle in a corner and throw dice, or NPCs that mug another NPC in an alley... etc. Basically I want to see NPCs do things other than stand creepily still and just move a hand or two every now and then.. I want something more.

 

Lockpicking

 

I'd like to know if there are any mods that change the lock mini-game. I've only seen one or two, one that makes it so you can "only hear" the lock and others that remove it entirely, in-favor of the Morrowind insta-unlock system. I was wondering if there are any WIP or anything that totally overhaul the mini-game and/or make it seriously in-depth.

 

 

That's about it.. for now.

 

Thanks for your input.

1st one: You're probably better off looking for a new town. Making big edits to vanilla NPCs or vanilla towns usually aren't good ideas. I know there are plenty odf mods that do it so, let me explain:

 

New mugger NPC mugs new victim NPC. Victim NPC doesn't like getting mugged and attacks mugger. Guards see Mugger running and attack his assaulter. Important quest NPC 1 through 4 like new victim NPC and as such try to protect him against the guards. The result equals: New victim NPC dead, Mugger got away with theft, and Important quest NPC 1-4 are dead.

Some of the game's ai and crime stuff is just too wonky and unpredicatable to add too much of that stuff to vanilla towns.

 

I am aware of two or three mods that do something close.

 

TIE: Adds a lot of random NPCs some of whom sometimes steal, and such. Also some are hunters... Other than that most of them are random faceless nobodies that just wander all around cyrodiil

 

Raiders as of Cyrodiil: Similar to the above, but it's very buggy and it also adds some evil factions which attack certain cities on certain days.

 

Blood and mod. A quest mod reenvisioning Bravil. Adds some quests and over a handful of NPCs.

 

You might also be interested in mods like Tamriel Travelers, crowded roads, etc.
