AmRussian Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Inspiration: Well I bought my first home in whiterun and never gave much thought cause it was crap. Lets be honest here. anyway a eventually got around to buying vindril hall in markarth. I was like woah, it still is my favorite home. I spent literally 4 hours slowly maneuvering every little item to a nice spot which was a pain in the ass because you have to be creative with corners to get it in the right position and EVERYTHING is top heavy so by the time I tried to place it, it was upside down. finally I finished. I logged off cause of my headache from the daunting task. When I logged back in it was all over the floor. I was like WTF!!!!!!! I logged back off and saw it was common with everybody. Solution: Now I have never ever coded anything but a webpage as a student in marketing so I do not know how difficult this would actually be. Perhaps like the command follower option with items. You can pick them up wherever you want to, (So if you pick up from the top thats how its held, not from the middle of it.) A way to rotate the item perhaps with the arrow keys, and an easier way to maneuver the item once it is on a surface, (Maybe you can fix it onto an object and from there move it back and forth with the arrow keys.) that would fix the majority of issues with the currently stupid system. Cool Ideas To Go With It: Being able to record notes in empty books (Repaired ruined books?) or on rolls of paper Being able to flip to a page and have the book open on said page. Opening a roll of paper. Obtaining maps and jabbing daggers in certain spots (So routinely seen throughout Skyrim.) Craftable racks, mannequins, cases Etc. Movable furniture, Jewelry racks, Locks for your stuff cause everyone else has them. Having an open drawer instead of all closed, Wall chests, Quilts for the bed, Fish tank, Dog pen, Pots to put whatever plant you want to grow in, Dying fires, More intractable items (Such as putting a quill in an inkwell,) MOVABLE PRONGS ON THE STUPID TABLE, Among countless others I can not think of at the moment. Conclusion: I might just be a lone decorator here but I know PC gamers and they enjoy stuff like this. most of the stuff I thought of serves no practical purpose in game but I know I am not the only one bickering over this. This may be a walk in the park or like coding a whole new game, I do not know. I would love to hear thoughts or ideas or ridicule if I am the only one who does this. Hopefully someone with mod skills will read and give me an idea of the difficulty. Thanks, AmRussian P.S. Hope my english is okay, it is a second language to me.
