Mobile housing

Recommended Posts

Hello, I was wondering if someone could lead me to some tuts that may cover this subject or possibly give me some advice on how to do it, I'm an absolute Beginner when it comes to scripting and the like. But you have to start somewhere i guess. Thanks in advance to anyone that may take it upon themselves to lend a helping hand

"Mobile Housing" is not very clear; I'm not really sure what you are asking.

 

There are LOTS of "Portable Homes" out there.

 

My personal favorite is Septim Mansion by Sietse: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6870

 

There is a similar mod by the same author which I believe is called "Madness Hideout" with an SI (Dementia) theme.

 

 

If this is not what you are looking for, then please be clear about what sort of "Tips" you are looking for.

Sorry that i was unclear, I mean mobile as in you use a spell or an item to get to it or summons a portal to it.

And what i need is tuts or tips of how to make and item/spell to be capable of it.

 

Ps. Thanks for the link to that mod i'm going to try it out as it looks good.

I remember someone mentioned tutorial for portable house. However, I couldn't find it. Instead, there're some tutorials for summoning and teleport at Construction Set Wiki. Reading that would be helpful a bit. Also, check some portable house mods to find out how to do. Usually several dummy quests and associated scripts are needed for making summonable portal and teleporting PC.(If you want to make it simpler, you can just teleport PC to house instead of summon portal)

There are two basic ways you could approach this. The first is the most simple, create a spell that teleports you there. Second, summon some type of portal that takes you there. From what I have seen, the vast majority of this type of thing is done with the latter. Septim Mansion uses the latter.

 

However...

 

The Magic Portal in Oblivion is an Activator, which means you must click on it. And, naturally, the Magic Portal activation zone is smaller than most and can be difficult to find. Over time, I got so sick of that stupid portal I wanted to scream! Plus, Sietse had two spells, one to summon the portal, one to bring you to the Teleport Room. EVERY damn time you enter the mansion your spells are swapped out, so you can't hotkey either of them.

 

So, for my own mods, I have opted for the former, a simple Teleport. Most players, I believe, think this is less "immersive," but for me the simplicity of it far outweighs anything else.

 

I have one spell that detects whether I am visiting my home and will either bring me there, or bring me to my main home room inside.

 

 

So, how you would do things will obviously depend on what you want to do.

 

Also However, there are Sooo many good portable homes out there that if you could just pick one of them and never have to bother making your own.

it doesnt only summon you to the house, but it teleports you there. and when you are done, and you leave, then it teleports you back to where you cast the spell.

 

not sure if this is what you are looking for, but...
