Sounds pretty cool, Doz.

BTW, have you ever played FO3?
There's a quest where you have to assist someone in writing their "Wasteland Survival Guide" by conducting loads of experiments for them, such as getting irradiated, testing an animal repellant, and finding food and medical supplies.

Perhaps we could make a similar quest, and this book becomes available after completion.

Hmm, I have not played FO, I was thinking of something like buying this book before going to BM

Fair enough. But we can't add it to any shops in Cyrodiil, because we want to make this mod compatible with as many others as possible.

Well, there is gotta be a place in Cyrodiil, from where the PC gets to BM, and he can find the book there!!!

Are you sure you need the mobile campfire? It's easily constructed with our own resources. I'd prefer to omit all non-essential items. The lamps would be good for UC areas but if we develop more then it would be nice to have metal styles of our own like maybe a metal rosebud to attach to walls or something.

Well, I think it can come in handy...

Here are the Stormhold Hammer/Battleaxe and some furniture models by SoK in .max format, they need texturing.

I've just downloaded the file you linked to.

Don't know when I'll get around to working on these. I've never worked on realistically texturing weapons before, but can't hurt to try.

If Ibsen needs them ASAP, I'll make them a priority.

I wasn't aware SoK was such a good modeller as well =) . Just a quick point though: most high-priority modelling claims end up here: Open Model Claims . If it's not on the list then it's not a big priority. This isn't to say that these aren't needed, of course. I love the axe and hammer as it will be great having the actual versions of the Stormhold axe and hammer that SoK designed. However, they're best off as quest rewards in a Stormhold quest so, as they're not holding up development in other areas by their absence, that means I'm ranking it down the priority list. Great stuff that we will use though!

The furniture is a little similar to the vanilla stuff and I'm reluctant to add anything that might be surplus to requirements. Having said that, it looks like he made a 'root-stool' there and also a handy display cupboard at the top of that pic. So, again, not critical items, but those are two models that I'd particularly like to use.

I don't know what to do with .max models though so I'll leave them in KP's capable hands. Oh, and is SoK planning to create textures for them at all? Finally, can you pass on our thanks to SoK for me, doz?

Hi, doz. Yeah, I've noticed a lot of new stuff at TesNexus too. My overall impressions:

• Elven Furniture - Lovely but sadly not relevant in BM, I'm afraid.
  
• Anima Cyrodiil Tileset - Lovely but sadly not relevant in BM, I'm afraid.
  
• Animated Flags - Possibly useful but only if we get the Scorpion Pass battle up and running and even then only if it's judged necessary (I'm trying to restrict things to only the essentials where possible).
  
• Armoured Masks - I almost added the same thing from a different modder earlier but I've got my eye on it and will look out for if and where it can be used. As it is, if it's not going to be used, it won't appear, regardless of the quality or skill.
  
• Barabus Crypt Set - All RW's work is well-known. Not relevant for BM again, sadly.
  
• All stuff by Senten - We're well aware of Senten's work. He was once a major member on these forums and is still very welcome. I may be adapting some of his stuff for use soon.
  
• Stapleninja's Furniture - Just a retex and not a particularly great one.
  
• Cave Floors - Don't like 'em.
  
• Ayleid stuff - Just retexes - our Barsaebic stuff is all we need here.
  
• Candle Skull - Haha! Easily done with a skull and a candle separately.
  
• CDEP Content - I'm aware of these. They're on the creatures list.
  
• Classic Wizard Robs - Nah!
  

It's the animated flags and Senten's stuff that's of most use out of this lot. Cheers for the heads-up, Doz (and ToaVak).
