About this mod

A brand new Nordic Outpost for the player to call home, provided they have the gold to restore it!

Welcome to Eastwatch! This mod represents everything I've ever aspired to create in a player home, from brand new high quality 3D models to new custom armor. This has been in development for quite some time, and I hope you'll all enjoy this personal passion project! Be assured I should be releasing the modder's resource before the end of the month where I'll share all of the custom models I've featured in this mod. Please be sure to leave a comment if you like what you see, and would be interested in seeing more of these outposts in the other Skyrim holds! See the screenshots for more information!

WHAT THIS MOD DOES
  • Adds a new Nordic Outpost on the border of Riften Hold, featuring dozens of new 3D models crafted by myself!
  • Brand new heavy armor, Frontier Plate. Also comes with red & blue color variants, just need to craft them with the Advanced Armor Smithing perk!
  • A consolidated crafting table to make new playthroughs of Skyrim more expedient. No more dashing from animation menu to animation menu!
  • New followers.
  • Customization options, allowing for enable and disabling interior themes to include the followers.
  • A new shrine to Kyne, Warrior Wife & Goddess of Storms! (A tad too strong but that was intentional. This is a nordic pantheon variant of Kynareth. Visit Froki's Shack if you're curious about this deity.)

WHAT THIS MOD DOES NOT DO
  • This playerhome is NOT a warehouse. If you love player homes with lofty halls for showing off your hoard of loot this mod is probably not for you.
  • This playerhome does not offer any Hearthfire/demented cabbage patch kid adoption support.
  • This player home does not feature staff crafting.
  • This mod does not utilize or feature any Skyrim DLC elements.

**INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS**

Authors Note: With extremely few exceptions all of the new models featured in this mod use standard Skyrim textures, meaning depending on
what HD texture pack you're utilizing your Eastwatch may appear significantly different from my screenshots. Perhaps for the better! Or perhaps for the worst. Your mileage may vary. It should go without saying your game should always be updated, but if you're not running the latest version of Skyrim and you can't find the outpost you may need to install BEES (Backported Extended ESL Support - Nexus ID 106441) in order for any newer mod plugin to properly work in your game.

Edit: Thank you Ringmaster308 & Blackspine18859 for bringing this to my attention.

STEPS TO INSTALL
1. Unzip the download file.
2. Copy the Data folder to your Skyrim main directory. As everything has been neatly packed into .BSA's install and uninstallation should be a breeze.

CREDITS
I could not have created this mod without this modding community and its generosity. As such I thought it inappropriate to release this for a profit. Listed below are just some of the people who were instrumental in making this mod possible.

The Niftools- team for giving us Nifskope.
Skyfox- from the Niftools team for his great tool NifUtils
1shoedpunk and Tamira- for mentoring me as I tinkered with 3DS Max.
IsharaMeradin- for being an absolute saint in helping me get the scripts featured in this mod working correctly
Darkfox127- for his many tutorials. I haven't released a player home since 2013 with Castle Stonespire & Grayhill Keep so I certainly needed refreshers on many subjects.
