📋 About This Mod
Hi everyone!
This mod is a part of a larger project I'm working on, but I'm uploading it separately as it works as a standalone addition. It adds the kettles from my mod slightly Better Kettles and pans from Cooking Pots SMIMed to hunter camps around Skyrim. You don't need those mods installed to use this one as all the textures and meshes required are in the download.
You'll see NPCs cooking in the pots and kettles, and you can cook with them, too.
Installation:
0) (Optional) Install slightly Better Kettles and slightly Better Cooking Pots.
1) Install Base Object Swapper
2) Install this mod.
