Guest deleted2588518 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 "Water, water, every where,: Nor any drop to drink." So... I often play Fallout in tandem with TES games and I have to wonder... Why can't I drink the water in Skyrim? I mean there is plenty to drink, sure. Mead, Beer, Ale, Wines... Hell with a few mods it adds even more variety like water, milk, etc... That isn't the issue. Allow me to elaborate. In Fallout, from the start, I'm able to drink from a fountain, river, pool (or toilet >.>) directly. No need for a bottle or container of any kind. Just stick your head down there and slurp till you feel refreshed. In Skyrim I come across tons of small pools, streams and even natural fountains and waterfalls. Yet, no option to drink the crystal clear, absolutely refreshing looking mountain/spring water. [No radiation here! No Sir!] Dip a bottle into a fresh water stream for later? Nope. I play a highly modded Skyrim for a much more survivalist style and I'm just looking for more options while out in the wilderness. So I'm looking for a mod that allows me to drink water I may come across in nature. Perhaps even save some of that water in a bottle/bladder/skin for later? [or perhaps other liquids I may find?] I would imagine it wouldn't be overly complicated to port the drinking function and or animation from the fallout games. Not directly copy them obviously, but perhaps emulate their function? And if a mod already exists that will allow this to happen, please feel free to link it or post about it.

And yes, you can bottle water from any water source and drink it later (or boil it first, to be safe). It's a fantastic mod if you haven't tried it.
