First. This is my first mod. I met Creation Kit one week ago.

Second. Excuse my english.

I really hated the east side of Lakeview Manor, always felt it was very close to the mountain. I tried to move things and trees and rocks and stuff, but It always looked wrong after fast travel. Creation Kit was very difficult to me, but after a couple of headaches, a panic attack and all the crying, I think I finally managed to create a more open space.

There are two files. The first one only removes the trees on the west and north. The wolf cave remains the same. No land modified, except for a little touch on the ground at the altar, an abrupt change of textures that always bothered me. It should be compatible with everything.

The second file does the same, and also edits the exterior of Lakeview Manor. A lot. Removes the altar, part of the mountain, all the trees, the grass around the house, and ads a field of grass between the manor and Pinewatch. The wolf cave is empty now. I could not erase the stain of blood, don't know how, so I put a rock above it (well, if it works, it works...) I repeat, excuse my english.

Any other mod that edits the same landscape can be incompatible. But, hey! Try it! Maybe it works! Make a new save, put this mod last in your load order and see what happens. Example: if you use the fantastic mod Improved Adoptions, that edits the same landscape, put this mod before in the load order, and the gates of hell will open. Put it after and you will only find one ore vein floating above the hill, and the stone quarry without the rocks behind, but you can disable them easily with console commands or any mod that move... things. The road fits perfectly.

My recomendation is to install this second mod after build all the house parts, just in case.

Install only one file.

I did this mod for myself, to build a village with Atronach Crossing and Cobb Positioner. Maybe some of you find it interesting, maybe not. You may think it feels a little empty, but that was what I was looking for. Use Atronach Crossing, Cobb Positioner, Jaxonz Positioner or any other mod, and fill the empty space with your ideas. More trees, less trees, fences, buildings, horses, cows, nothing... I highly recommend DynDoLOD and TES5LODGen.

This is a work in progress, I will make more changes in the future.

Edit: Rar archive deleted, reuploaded with 7zip.

Edit: Remember, any mod that edits the same landscape, may cause some trouble. Not only "Lakeview mods". Other mods may add trees, rocks, objects floating here and there. Nothing dangerous. It will not break your game. As I see in the comments, It works for some people, It may be a mess for others. It depends on what mods you have. Put my mod last in your load order to minimize this posibility.
Any mod that adds a road should work, the height of the path is untouched, just edited the textures, and with the same dirty ground textures of most roads. 

I just started, I wish I could create a patch for every other mod. If anybody likes the idea, and wants to create a mod that makes the same, but better, I will be happy and I will download it.

Feel free to use this mod for... whatever you want. Edit it, destroy it, eat it, make it better, or make it worse.

THIS IS IMPORTANT. If anybody wants to create something, but feels like he/she doesn't have the skills, have no fear. If I can do this shit (impossible a week ago) you can do your shit. Keep it to yourself or upload it. It may be interesting for somebody.     

Please, be kind and patient on your comments. Love, happy new year.
