Introduction


This mod started as a simple unofficial add-on featuring a couple of unique and commonly modded displays to LC_Build Your Noble House but evolved into a more comprehensive patch that adds many unique displays not found in other mods (including rare quest items and custom jewelry) and improves lighting, language, and object placement in the interior of the Fellburg castle. As of version 1.3., fixes to original bugs have been implemented.

The newly displayable items are mainly those that remain in the player's inventory after a quest's end (and which do not already have a vanilla display elsewhere like Calixto's curiosities and Thieves Guild trophies). Faction items have also been avoided because they do not suit every playstyle and playthrough. After all, this is a noble's house, not a mage tower or a thief's den.
Several unique books of which only a single copy exists in-game can also now be displayed. 

The displays themselves have been meticulously designed and carefully arranged to fit seamlessly inside the castle.

There are two versions of the mod, the core version and the immersion version, the latter of which only adds several subjective name changes compared to the former.

(Un)installation


  • Install using a mod manager or manually; the patch must load after both of the required (.esp) mods (automatic when using a manager like Vortex)
If you are not starting a new game, empty the containers and vacate the premises before installing. 

  • Uninstall using a mod manager or delete the .esp file manually.
If uninstalling during a playthrough, well, don't do that (in general). To avoid issues, you can always inspect a mod in-game and remove it afterwards without saving your session.
