Having a much larger local population for the biggest trading hub in Skyrim makes perfect sense, which is why I downloaded this mod. However, there are several basic issues with this mod despite having no other NPC mods for it to be simply an issue of conflict. The issues are as follows:
1) Large clumps of people in really odd areas (like 10 people at the base of the stairs leading into the pond in front of Dragonsreach not moving)
2) All new NPCs are nude with the exception of a helmet and occasionally handheld items. It made me want to get level 100 pickpocket and see if I could sneak clothing onto them.
3) The face/body/dialogue is the same for dozens of people. Having 30 extra people is fine but when it looks like the town is the center of a large scale cloning experiment it's not only lore-unfriendly, it's also creepy.
4) The places where people SHOULD be hanging out in public are the only places they are not. Examples: The beautiful courtyard with the Gildergreen tree, which is gorgeous and has benches has nobody in it. There should be people sitting on the benches chatting, kids stomping in the water channel, retired guards chatting up current guards, etc. The vendor area has some new people but the tend to clump near the center, not facing the vendors, which is the reason why they should be in that area to begin with.
I am not an experienced modder, but if someone can make a mod with 20 new creatures all with unique skins, drops, and ingredients. You can surely put your NPCs in logical areas, have them actually walk around, vary them a bit, and for god sake put clothes on them.
Hey.Its a really good idea,thats what im searching for but ; Why are all npcs armored ?. Couldn't you make them citizens instead of warriors,or hunters.Because they are now lookin' like bandits.Please change their outfits bro.Then I can download it.Thanks
There is a bug where NPCs fall from a height and take damage, sometimes they immediately die. I have seen this happen right as I left a building, the NPC dropped a few feet and immediately died. This happens to a lot of them, now Whiterun is full of dead bodies!
i think the author are aim bigger to repopulate whitrun with many NPC, but too many is not too good to.
I think 20 NPC with most activity such as patrol area like guard (for retirement) and buying something for aristocrat (stayed at inn) or beggar/thief to thief player/ NPC if they unaware (but able get caught by guard ==> adding some script for this to work) would be nice.
If you aim big for something small, it could reduce your endorsment (^_^) while you had somenice perfect idea
Is this mod supposed to replace all the original NPCs aswell as implement these new ones? I didn't look around for the originals, but I removed the mod because the NPCs were sitting all over some additions to Breezehome I had from another mod. I ask because after removing the mod all the NPCs were gone, even the originals, and Whiterun was a ghost town. And either way, is there a way I can fix this? I accidentally quick-saved while the mod was running and I'd made a lot of progress since my last save, which was also a quick-save.
nexus mod manager reports this file as an ESP with an incorrect file extension. "WARNING: This plugin has the file extension .esm, but its file header marks it as an esp!"
is that normal with the change you made, or is that something that can be fixed?
