📋 About This Mod

Snazzy Noble Chests - Base Object Swapper

Using Base Object Swapper, randomly distributes 3 different custom made Noble Chests to all vanilla counterparts, as well as any other mod-added vanilla Noble Chests

Pairs perfectly with my Snazzy Noble Wardrobes and other furniture BOS mods!

Mod Features:

~ 3 custom Noble Chests filled with actual items and treasures (at the NIF level) that would normally be lootable from them

~ Chest lid swings all the way open, revealing the items and treasuress inside prior to taking you to the loot menu

~ Using Base Object Swapper, randomly replaces vanilla or mod-added NobleChest01 with one of these 3 new varieties

~ Uses the improved hardware assets from Skyrim Objects SMIMed - Noble Furniture

~ Uses any Noble Furniture texture replacer of your choice (Rustic Furniture, Noble Skyrim, Rally's, etc.)

~ Configurable BOS SWAP.ini to help avoid clipping with the opening doors and contents inside

~ Esl-flagged plugin

Compatibility:

  • []Must use the updated Base Object Swapper and all of its updated requirements[/]

    []May conflict with other mods that add NobleChest01 models in a funky way (inside walls, scaled real small/large, etc).  Clipping/size issues can be fixed by adding the offending references to the BOS SWAP.ini[/]

    []Patch for Skyrim 3D Furniture included in Optional Files[/]

    []Patch for Rally's Noble Furniture included in Optional Files[/]

    []Patch for JS Purses and Septims SE and JS Vanilla Circlets SE included in Optional Files[/]

    []Bethesda for Skyrim and CK[/]

✨ Key Features

Adds 3 custom-made Noble Chest variants
Randomly distributes chests to all vanilla counterparts
Compatible with mod-added vanilla Noble Chests via Base Object Swapper

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge download count (320k) shows it's a go-to for many players
  • Lightweight and performance-friendly since it just swaps textures/models
  • Works with other mods that add vanilla noble chests, so it's flexible

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects noble chests, so if you're looking for broader variety, this is niche
  • Requires Base Object Swapper, so you need to install that dependency first
  • No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind on the look
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want to spice up the look of noble chests without overhauling the whole game. If you're into subtle visual variety and already use Base Object Swapper, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you want major gameplay changes or don't care about chest aesthetics.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have Base Object Swapper installed and enabled before adding this mod, or the chests won't appear.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install, and check that the mod loads after Base Object Swapper in your load order.
  • If you don't see the new chests, try a fresh save or wait for cell respawn, as existing chests may not update immediately.
