Glass Case from Shivering Isles

[Furioso]

I searched, but couldn't find anything. I'd like to request a mod where we can place and then open/close the glass cases found throughout the Shivering Isles. I always wanted to be able to display my unique helms and other large objects in a display case, but the display cases in Cyrodil were too small, so I thought that the glass cases from the Shivering Isles mod would fit the bill.

 

 

An example of the glass cases:

If you have SI, all you would need to do is extract the related .nifs to your data folder (so you don't get missing .nif errors), then place them. However you cannot share the actual resources with your mod since SI content cannot be redistributed, whoever downloaded your mod would have to also extract the meshes from their SI BSA files (if it doesn't link properly). They already exist in the CS, and everything you need is already defined or available.

 

If you wanted a different look to them, you would either have to retexture the existing meshes for your own purposes (since people couldn't share a retextured version of official content since it would be based on meshes they don't have permission to distribute) or describe the specific look and wait for some kind soul to make such a thing from scratch.

 

However, putting things in display cases often doesn't work too well inside player houses since the contents can occasionally vanish. Such a thing would really only make sense within some sort of shop.

And just incase you wanted to know, its incredibly difficult to do that IN game. Easy peasy in the CS, near impossible in game.
