📋 About This Mod
I published this first at Steam Workshop, but now releasing it also here. (Subscription link: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=8832)
This mod makes a secret entrance to Ragged Flagon in Thieves guild. Located at Riften maingate, behind the house next to road and bush. Inside Ragged Flagon it is also a trapdoor down. Consider it as a hidden tunnel network :)
Pathing map is corrected at Riften and Ragged Flagon, so that hirelings will be able to go through it normally. (It's left as is in 1. 2)
Also, i am aware of other mods that add similar entrance, but this mod takes use of Riften fast travel point, not Thieves Guild one. At least in my version of Skyrim the Thieves guild travel icon is smaller and possibly little bugged, when it comes to trying to point it with cursor. But also, if Thieves guild assign you a task in Riften, the entrance is easier to find, than going to the graveyard.
Version history: 1. 3: - Now requires a key, which is hidden in the Thieves guild bardesk. So you at least need to visit the place normal way once.
1. 2: - Remade mod from scratch. - Clean with TES5Edit. - Trapdoor in Ragged Flagon is now a ladder up instead. - Box that was in place of ladder, is now dropped in water instead of placed on the bridge.
1. 1: - Added black rectangle under both trapdoors. This should hide grass that was showing when hatch was opened.
A small, focused mod that adds a secret entrance from Riften's main gate directly to the Ragged Flagon in the Thieves Guild. Ideal for Skyrim players who want quicker access to the guild without fast traveling or navigating the city. Simple and effective, with a solid endorsement count.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,338 endorsements and over 21,000 downloads.
- Saves time for Thieves Guild members who frequent the Flagon.
- Lightweight and does exactly what it says—no bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016—may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- No documentation on load order or potential conflicts with city overhaul mods.
- Only adds one entrance; if you're expecting more, this isn't it.
For Skyrim players who are deep into the Thieves Guild questline and want a quicker way to reach the Ragged Flagon without fast traveling. Also great for roleplayers who want a secretive entrance fitting the guild's style. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay changes or if you use extensive Riften overhauls that might conflict.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this mod and let it manage load order—place it after any Riften city overhauls.
- Test the entrance by fast traveling to Riften and checking near the main gate; if it's not there, check for conflicts with other mods that edit Riften.
- Since it's an older mod, consider using a compatibility patch if you have mods that alter Riften's layout.
