This mod helps clean up the Ragged Flagon and the Ragged Flagon- Cistern. By moving objects around and adding somethings here and there, made sure that the NavMesh is all there so it should be Companion friendly.



PLEASE NOTE: That this mod is designed to be used AFTER the Thieves Guild quests have been completed and have not been tested with an uncompleted and not upgraded area. While I expect it should work without any issues it may look strange, some items may have collision issues etc. Once I can figure out how to avoid this I will update it, but for now, I recommend not running this mod until you've AT LEAST gotten rid of Mercer Fray. This was the saying on the mod page that I had taken over this mod from at link to that mod can be found in the credits section of my mod page.
( I have been working on seeing if anything happens with the thieves guild if my mod is installed before getting rid of Mercer Fray, also I have always had my mod installed and running, so far there has been no problems of any kind.)

If anyone runs into this skyrim bug, that makes Brynjolf not start walking to The Ragged Flagon - Cistern then you may need to use console commands on him in this order and everything after this point will be fine ( disable, enable, and at the Cabinet Secret Door type moveto player) and Brynjolf should open the door if not (use the command unlock on the Cabinet Secret Door) and he should walk to The Ragged Flagon - Cistern, If he does not do that then you will also need to repeat the same console commands just in a different way. So if Brynjolf does not start walking toward The Ragged Flagon - Cistern the you will need to do this ( disable Brynjolf in The Ragged Flagon, then you yourself need to go into The Ragged Flagon - Cistern and then type enable after that just type moveto player again and Brynjolf should be behind you and he will start walking to the center of the room to talk with Mercer Fray). As long as this is done the correct way there should not be any other problems.

I looked at this website http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Taking_Care_of_Business and found out
that my mod does not cause this problem, It has been in the game from day one it is just hard to get it to happen.

Version List:

Version 0.5 -  initial start, and added a large wine barrel to one of the hallway alcoves the ragged flagon cistern.

Version 1.0 - I have made the Bar in the ragged flagon a bit bigger so now three people can sit at it and made it so Vekel will stand at the bar facing the new seat and the old two seats but he has been moved a little bit over to work with the new bar setup. The blacksmith area in the ragged flagon has been changed up a bit, I added little decking with railing and moved the forge on to it so I could fit a custom smelter(NO CC, USES STUFF IN GAME). Had to move the blacksmith to the other side of his area so he would not clip with the forge, I put the sharpening wheel next to the forge and put the armor workbench inside the alcove, also moved the blacksmith sign over near the blacksmith area start. Alchemy alcove moved objects around and add a tabletop alchemy workbench. Set the Alchemist and there stand on the other side of the alcove so I had to move the sign a bit, also put some more moss on the sign to help it look nice.

Version 1.1 - I moved the guy that sells bows and stuff around a small bit and gave him a sign, changed where Vekel sleeps to make it look better so it is not cramped up in there. Had to move some objects around because I left a box in one of the ramps, made the two ramps by the Ragged Flagon sign not overlap the small platform that they sit on, Added a cooking pot and stand to the firepit behind Vekel's bar because it seemed to be lore-friendly, like this so Vekel sells food but where does it come from so now it makes it like he makes the food and then sells it. I also moved some objects around so it should work with (Thieves Guild Mission Door -only found on steam).

Version 1.2 - Added a Guild Master's Forge in the same hallway as (Guild Master's Armory - ultimate storage room in the Ragged Flagon) to make it feel right. It's like this you forge a weapon or piece of armor and you won't put it on display. But, don't want to go too far to put it up. So I made it that all you have to do is go into the forge room and make something then leave, turn down the hall and the door to the (Guild Master's Armory - ultimate storage room in the Ragged Flagon) is right there.

Version 1.3 - I made the bar larger so that more members could sit at it, it can now seat up to five members. I had to move the bar to a different area so I could get it to work better with other mods that add more members to the guild, like Thieves Guild Bounty Clearer by Assiassin, More Ragged Flagon Patrons by Finbarr, The Thieves Guild: More Thieves by Pilot!'s and Enhanced Guilds by Scurra. Worked in the hallway with (Guild Master's Armory - ultimate storage room in the Ragged Flagon) in it so that there are no problems happening. Moved "Thieves' Cross - Teleportation Charm" to the new thieves guild bar to make it easier to find, the new location is right next to the horn light.

Version 1.4 - Remade the custom smelter because I did not like how it looked so I added another object to it and changed the broken pipe for a complete pipe. Moved a table to help if NPC move-ability. Made it so when you finish all 4 thieves guild city quest, all beds show the upgraded version for some reason the beds where setup wrong (This is the first time I have touched anything in the settings of them)I have moved the player bed around in its area but that's it. Moved some items around in the Ragged Flagon - Cistern very hard to notice anyway. (Everything after this version is only in the Skyrim Special Edition version of my mod)

Version 1.4.5 -
Small touch-ups here and there, also fixed small Nav Mesh problems and is now working fully on SSE.

Version 1.5 -
Fix's some new Nav Mesh problems made when making Vekel and Dirge's room bigger.

Version 1.6 - A room bounds overlap has been fixed so there should not be any see through walls in the Ragged Flagon. The Thieves Guild Ladder - Skyrim Special Edition by TheTruhvanor now has a compatibility patch for my mod to work together with no problems. Mod now must to be used with USSEP because USSEP adds another room to The Ragged Flagon and made new room bounds that need to be edited so that parts on the Flagon don't just look like they disappear when they don't. Redesigned the Guildmaster's Forge room cause it didn't look great in the game as one big room so I changed the walls that where being used so now it still is sort of one big room but sectioned off into areas.

Version 1.7
- Fixes some very unknown errors that where made in past updates
Patch for ELFX-
Now works with ELFX if you use it
General Stores
- General Stores version


Version 2.0 -
This will be the final version for this mod since I am trying to make another mod that will be an add-on to this of some sorts, I have also added some more items around to help make it feel like the guild is getting back to glory. I have made the training area bigger with more chests and a new area where target practice takes place , the four alcoves in the Ragged Flagon have some small changes, treasure room comes with player safe storage chests only after the four special city quests are completed. Added a noble chest drawers set for Gem safe Storage, added two safes one for Ingots and the other for Ores both are set for safe storage. I'm adding the safe storage stuff to help Draco1122 with the General Stores version so that as much as I can setup before hand helps get both the normal and GS versions out for all.   
Patch for ELFX-
Removed in 2.0 cause of its buggy nature
General Stores- General Stores version (Using the newest version of my mod)
