Hackdirt mod

[Tasendia]

Hello

 

I have started playing the game again recently, and as I like to do, I have wiped out the inbreds at Hackdirt.

 

Now that I have done that, I think that the town has got potential.

 

I would like to have a go at making a mod that makes over the town and new people have moved in, and made it into a nice place.

 

How do I do this?

 

I will need to:

 

Make new houses to replace the ones that were destroyed.

Get new people in

Change the names of the houses to match the new residents.

Make a house for myself.

Add a farm.

Change the name of the town.

 

If possible get some of the people of Chorrol to know that the town have been rejuvenated.

 

Is this possible?

 

If so, is it possible for me to do it? (I have never made a mod before)

 

Will anyone help me with advice and links to websites and video tutorials please?

 

Thank you

Tasendia

Yes, it's possible. In fact, it's not particularly hard but will require a fair bit of work. If modifying an existing town, you also need to be extra careful that anything you "delete" won't ever be needed again by any vanilla quest. (Technically you're not deleting them, just hiding them and making them inaccessible.)

 

You can start by making one house to get a taste of what you'll need to do. Here's a good tutorial for exactly that:

Hei

 

That is excellent. Thank you.

 

Thank you for the link as well.

 

I have checked and there is only one quest linked to the town.

 

I think it will be great to make it into a nice town. It is in a pretty location. Now to think of a new name for it.

 

Wish me luck please.

Looking forward to the more 'pleasant' Hackdirt, seriously though, the village was just begging for it.

 

I wish you good luck with your project!
