📋 About This Mod


Nirn Necessities is a pack of physics-enabled accessories with a low-fantasy aesthetic, focused on everyday items that a citizen of Tamriel would wear, such as: satchels, backpacks, cloaks, etc. Designs inspired by apparel in other RPGs like Dragon's Dogma 2, Outward, Dungeonborne and Baldur's Gate III.

 
  • []Handmade quality meshes and textures, each item having multiple colour options

    []Most items physics-enabled through SMP, including smaller details like flaps, buckles and strings

    []Optimized physics performance through no-collision physics and low-poly proxy collisions

    []Particle light support for glowing accessories

    []Satchels, backpacks & pouches give carry weight, scarves are flagged 'warm' for Survival Mode

    []Base meshes are fitted for the vanilla body, Bodyslide files for 3BA & HIMBO are included.

OBTAINING ITEMS

Items can be crafted at a forge, and are also distributed to merchant levelled lists to purchase.

Optionally, you can select SPID distribution to NPCs directly in the FOMOD installer.

HDT-SMP sometimes has exaggerated physics. See below!

This can be prevented by going into the FSMP MCM, and ticking

Performance > 'Enable a better simulation'

If you do not have the MCM, you can change this in:

Faster HDT-SMP\SKSE\Plugins\hdtSkinnedMeshConfigs\configs.xml

and set <groupEnableMLCP>true</groupEnableMLCP> from false to true.
