About this mod

Sick of the same old houses? Why not go bigger and better! The Royal Mansion is big castle-like player home.

Permissions and credits
Most house mods a just simple rehashes of existing homes. That's why when the Dovahkin Hideout was released I really liked it. When the Creation Kit went live I decided to make a player home of my own. It's completely build from scratch using a large variety of the existing Skyrim assets. I didn't use any base to start with and it doesn't replace anything. It's not completely finished in my opinion, but I've spend a long time working on it and it's completely opperational. Yes it is big/huge, but you're the Dovahkin, the hero of Skyrim, you deserve a big house.

The player house is directly available for all and is marked "Royal Mansion" on the map, nearby Riverwood. (warning: English is not my native language)

Including:

- 14 mannequins
- 14 large display cases (swords)
- 11 small display cases (daggers) (update 1.1)
- 5 weapon racks (1 of 5, 4 of 4) (update 1.1)
- 9 shield/weapon plaques (update 1.1)
- 4 large bookcases (storage containers)
- 6 actual bookcases (update 1.2)
- 2 wardrobes
- 2 nighttables for storage
- 5 storage chests (update 1.2)
- 4 satchels for storage (update 1.2)
- complete forge (including skyforge, update 1.2)
- alchemy and enchantment table
- Shrine of the Arkane and Shrine of Talos

- Two guard NPC's
- Merchant NPC
- Blacksmith NPC
- Follower NPC

These are divided over 6 rooms:
- Hall (2 mannequins)
- Armory (10 mannequins, 14 large display cases, 11 small display cases, 5 weapon racks, 9 weapon/shield plaques & Shrine of Talos)
- Magic room (alchemy table, enchantment table, Shrine of the Arkane, 2 satchels)
- Bedroom/Library/Kitchen room (2 mannequins, 4 bookcases, 2 wardrobes, 2 nighttables, 3 storage chests)
- Forge (all forge related stuff, 1 storage chest)
- Bathroom

Note: The NPC's aren't perfect yet, but it's a start.

PS: I'll upload a video soon
PS(2): The screenshots are without AA, since I'm playing the game in 3D and don't need it myself)
