📋 About This Mod
PORTABLE CAMPSITE Version 2. 3 Edited by Dark Monk DESCRIPTION ----------- This mod is a compilation and enhancement of several camping mods and is perfect for hunters and those who want to sleep in the great outdoors of Cyrodiil. It includes a bedroll, campfire, tent, stool and sack. It contains bugfixes and tweaks of the original mods as well as new features. The aim is towards realism so the items are basic and there are no magically summoned houses filled with artwork and chests. CREDITS ------- Big thanks to Aridale for the original tent, campfire, bedroll and stool mods, Daeger for his updated bedroll mesh, SJ_Bee for his backpack mod and Ceano for his equipment icons. INSTALLATION ------------ BEFORE UPGRADING OR REMOVING THIS MOD, ALWAYS DROP THE PORTABLE SACK FROM YOUR INVENTORY AND EMPTY THE SACK\'S CONTENTS TO AVOID LOSING YOUR PRECIOUS LOOT! If you are using Aridale\'s original Portable Bedroll, Fire & Tent or Stool mods, disable them and use this mod instead. If you are using sj_bee\'s Backpack mod, you can keep using it if you want. There should be no conflicts. This mod contains two esp files: Portable Campsite.esp and Portable Campsite - Quickstart.esp. USE ONLY ONE! Choose the quickstart version if you want the items to be automatically added to your inventory. In the normal version, you will have to first purchase your items from Sergius Verus at Three Brothers Trade Goods in the Imperial City. Copy the meshes and textures folders and your chosen version of the Portable Campsite esp file to your Oblivion\\Data folder and enable mod under \"Data Files\" in the Oblivion start screen. HOW IT WORKS (adapted from the original readme files) ----------------------------------------------------- Since you can\'t enable havok physics on any object you want to make use of the physics engine to aid in moving objects around and placing them how you want you have to use an object that already has physics enabled. Since furniture is static and you cant move it around to be able to put a bedroll/campfire/tent/stool/sack anywhere you want and have the flexiblity of the physics engine to do so you have to use something else. The placer objects take the form of a bedroll, plates for the stool and campfire and a rake for the tent. Bedroll: Drop the Portable Bedroll on the ground and position it how you want it. It\'s best to always place the bedroll top up. The way the rolled up bedroll lies is the way the bedroll should lay. Activate it and it puts the bedroll there. You sneak and activate the bedroll to pick it up. Activate the bedroll normally to bring up the Rest Menu. When you place the bedroll on the ground, a marker is added to the map which you can fast travel to. The marker is only added if the location is outdoors and not in a city. Tent: Drop it from your inventory. The tent is represented by a rake. The tent will be set up according to the rake\'s position. The length of the rake
