📋 About This Mod
Some fixes and patches for Alternate Perspective.
The fixes option in the FOMOD includes the following:
Solstheim Starting Fixes:
Alternate Perspective - Alternate Start offers a bunch of different starting options, among others the option to start in Solstheim either as a regular of the Retching Netch (Raven Rock inn) or arriving by boat to the Raven Rock docks. However, these starting options leave the Dragonborn DLC in a very dysfunctional state, as a lot of the setup for the expansion is performed during the intro scene you get when first arriving by ship from Windhelm. Without this initialisation Gjalund has no dialogue, Adril Arano is stuck on the docks in perpetuity, there is no map marker to travel back to Skyrim, radiant quests are broken, etc. And if you manage to return to Skyrim and travel back with Gjalund, you would get the intro scene as if arriving for the first time.
This mod adds the initialisation steps to the two Raven Rock starting options in Alternate Perspective, fixing all of the above issues.
Helgen Landscape Fix:
There are some holes in the landscape at a cell border near the Helgen east gate, both inside and outside the walls. See the image section for some examples.
Patches cover these mods:
Guard Dialogue Overhaul 3. 0+
Relationship Dialogue Overhaul
Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch
Requirements:
Alternate Perspective - Alternate Start last checked against 4. 1. 0
Compatibility:
Overwrite files from Alternate Perspective - Voiced Addon and make sure the fixes plugin loads later. Voiced Addon includes the same script files with some of the Solstheim initialisation steps added, but doesn't add all of them.
