📋 About This Mod
Cheydinhal Abandoned House Reborn V1. 3 UPDATE 12/18/2009 - Better Cities Compatibility. See version history below, AND Install instruction. -------------------------------- General Information This mod completely refurbishes the Abandoned House in Cheydinhal, and it is now known as the Clearwater Estate. All of the boards have been removed. The fence has not only been repaired, but the entire yard is now enclosed. I\'ve done a good deal of landscaping here. There are now some shrubs dotting the yard here and there, but that is only the beginning. The front yard features two gardens full of pretty flowers and grasses. There are magical stones sunk into the soil of the gardens that light up at night with a soft, orange hue, illuminating them. The back yard is now home to a striking pond with a small set of waterfalls. Butterflies are fond of the lotuses and water hyacinth that grow in it. There are magical stones embedded in the rock around the waterfalls and the pond, which give off a soft, sky blue glow during the night hours. For those who use the Animated Window Lighting System (http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=19628), there is a mesh included (detailed in the installation section below) that has AWLS enabled. The interior has been completely refurbished. EVERYTHING has been removed and replaced (see the Warning below). There are now a good number of storage items and display cases. Five Large Display Cases, six Medium Display Cases and eight Small Display Cases. EVERYTHING in here is set to be player owned, and non-respawning, so you shouldn\'t need to worry about losing items by storing them here. In 1. 2, I modified the pillows in front of the fireplace. In the original version, I wanted a couch or sofa of some kind, but there was obviously no room, so I added a bunch of pillows to lounge around with in front of the fireplace. I always thought it would be nice to be able to sleep there, and now you can! The center pillow is now \"Comfy Pillow\" which can be used for sleeping. I don\'t know how this will interact with \"See You Sleep\", as it activates another bed remotely, so be forewarned. As of version 1. 2, I have now completely rebuilt the basement. I modified the mesh used as the freaky Necro door under Benirus Manor to seal the hole leading down to the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary door. The glowy glyphs are gone, so it blends in with the wall perfectly. There is a strange candle nearby that opens it, and I have included help text if you click on the wall itself. The first section of the basement is now a study and library area. Straight ahead is the false wall mentioned above, but going to the right leads through a winding corridor and down several sets of stairs to a new bathing and showering area. This is all fluff, but it was fun. I also did an update the three gates that lead into the yard. I use crowded cities, other people likely do as well.. I got very annoyed at watching
