GitcheGumee

That's not cheating, it's patience; a majority of modders set out with the determination that they will release whatever is their finished product.

Your first mod is actually a useful one? Very nice. Too bad I didn't have a similar depth of knowledge when I released my first mod. Gratz.

Ok. I named the house Open Skies Trading Post. I linked the interior with the exterior, renamed the cell, and included a map marker. The interior is almost finished; I used Riverwind Trader for the interior, so I did a lot of deleting objects that didn't belong so I could save time by skipping most searches, since most of the common objects I wanted to use were just lying around the shop anyway. Two things that are missing are the weapon rack and a mannequin; I couldn't seem to find them in the CK. The weapon rack had "a piece" in the CK, as if it were meant to be a part of a constructed object rather than one that was complete. Maybe I'll skip that and just clutter the place instead. I did not find the mannequin at all. Through my tests, I discoved that Lydia cannot simply follow me around the trading post property. It looks like I will have to learn Navmesh afterall; this shouldn't be too bad since I've spent a great deal of time studying the contexts of forum posts regarding Navmesh, and I have also watched some tutorials; I relied, over the past few days, on these things to learn what I didn't know already, and here I am with a more serious mod almost ready to be released. One thing that does still go over my head is scripting. Somebody come to the rescue when the time comes. Thanks for reading, and, as always, here is the outline with some of what I hope to accomplish.

True about the learning process, but I don't intend to have this (even the small WIP part) published next week.   I can do that much quickly enough once I find the right tutorials (it is just a small business property right now), but it won't be rushed. I want every detail to be accounted for before I share it for feedback.   Anyway, thanks for jumping into the conversation.   And one question; did you download the MS Word outline? I'm not asking you to download it (I respect others' ability to choose whether or not to do such things), but I would like to know, among those who join the conversation, who has read that.   Thanks again.

I started building the mod that I was going to title GitcheGumee's Trading Post. I decided to change the title over the past few days. Among the things I have accomplished so far are: building the exterior of the house and back yard work area. I placed all of the crafting objects except the smelter. I need to remember the smelter for future updates, but I'll admit, it is useless now. I have chosen a vanilla house to serve as the HQ for the trading post. I tried to link the interior to the exterior of the house, but, so far, the youtube tutorials either haven't cover the process as it's done this way, or I have been unable to maintain a stable internet connection to be able to finish watching them. I started getting tired, so I decided to quit before I ruined everything I worked to build tonight (hard lesson learned once). Overall, I am pleased with my progress in learning, and, while I expected more so far, I am not disappointed. I plan to release the mod as a WIP after I complete the house outside of Whiterun. I hope for useful feedback. Again, here is the document outlining some of what I hope to accomplish with this mod. Have fun folks, and bring some humor to Skyrim.

I would explain mine, but I don't have one because I don't know how to make an image that will fit the square thingy.

VAMPIRES SUCK! Great movie, and yes I do feel that way.

  I tried talking to Sanguine while gagged. Repeatedly. He doesn't give a rat's ass.  

I like this a lot. I will, however wait until it's more stable; I had issues where my game became unplayable because I wouldn't give up on a certain mod. It's time to take a break from unstable mods, but I will be watching closely. Keep up the good work.

I have a problem (OMG! NOBODY HAS PROBLEMS!). When I find cursed loot, it says it equips three items. only one appears on my PC, and the rest don't even appear in my inventory. It also seems that I get plugs (not that I mind plugs) whether or not a belt is equipped.

  Needed.
