About this mod
This seeks to address some of the shortcoming of vanilla Riverwood guards: they had a campsite, but none used it. They were on patrol 24/7.
This adds a small barracks, gives the guards semi-realistic schedules with rotating shifts. Guard allegiance will match Whiterun's during the Civil War.

Addresses some of the shortcoming of vanilla Riverwood guards, aiming to make their lives a little more realistic:
- They have an actual (small) barracks now at the Eastern edge of town, instead of two bedrolls on the ground outside the Western "walls".. (Note: I did not remove the campsite, since it is used by some mod-added NPCs)
- They work in shifts, have semi-realistic schedules including patrol, sleeping, eating at the Inn or in the barracks and hanging around the Inn's porch during time off.
- The guard uniform always includes a Whiterun cuirass and shield, even if Whiterun switches allegiance to Stormcloaks during the Civil War.
- Riverwood Guard allegiance will correctly update as the CW progresses.
- Imperial-aligned Guard uniform includes imperial light bracers and imperial light boots Edit: v1.20, at higher levels that may be Imperial Heavy boots/bracers
- Stormcloak-aligned Guard uniform includes leather bracers and leather boots Edit v1.20: at higher levels, that may be scaled boots/bracers
This was made with USSEP installed. USSEP is not required, but it is recommended since it fixes numerous bugs.
Installation:
Manually or with a mod manager, whichever you prefer.
There are two versions: Vanilla/JK's and ETaC
- Vanilla/JK's is for vanilla or JK's Riverwood. It may work with other Riverwood overhauls that do not edit the NavMesh in cell Riverwood02.
- ETaC is for Expanded Towns and Cities
Use only one!
Leaf Rest:
Not Compatible.
FAQ:
Q: What's the difference in the versions?
A: ETaC, as its name implies, expands the town considerably to a total of eleven residences. I had to add an additional guard patrol route to cover this expansion. I believe the larger town justifies the increased guard presence.
Q: What NavMesh changes were done?
A: None, beyond adding the barracks door triangle to cell Riverwood02. No other NavMeshes or cells are touched at all.
