*This mod requires Hearthfire



*UPDATE - 1.2



Lighting changed. RLO is no longer required to get the correct lighting.

Fixed issue (hopefully!) where for sale sign would not appear for some users.

Redundant mine ore script removed to avoid clashes with other mods .

Shrine of Dibella and Stendarr correctly rotated.

*Lighting in version 1.2 is a little different than the RLO values. If you are happy with the lighting as it is, you do not need to update.

GETTING STARTED

Time passes when building - Each time you build an object, the screen will fade to black and a set amount of time will pass. Smaller structures and furniture will take around 1-4 hours. Larger structures and rooms will take around 4-6 hours to build.

Building is instant - Objects are created instantly, similar to the standard Hearthfire DLC.



CUSTOMISATION / EXTRA OPTIONS

Display shelf - The display can be created at the interior house workbench. Once you have created it, you can create up to four set of statues to display on them. Activate the shelf and you can switch between them as many times as you like.

Bug jar / Unique item display - These can be created at the tower workbench. The unique display will become available after you have created the enchanting desk. A chest will appear once they have been built. Open the chest to find a list of items. If you add any of these items to the chest, they will be put on display.

Window box - Activate the window box next to the stairs and you can switch between flowers and ivy.

SPOUSE / CHILDREN COMPATIBILITY

You have the option of a single bed or double bed. If you have already built the single bed it can be replaced with the double bed. You cannot remove the double bed once it has been built.

You have the option of a writing desk or a child's bed. If you have already built the writing desk, it can be replaced with the child's bed. Make sure to empty out both drawers of the desk first, as the child's bed cannot be removed once built. An optional second child's bed will become available after building the first.

A child's practice dummy can be built in the basement. This seems to be a requirement for male children, but I'm not 100% sure.

*If you forget to empty the writing desk before building the child's bed, you can access it by using the console...





Open the console and type "prid xx04d5ae" and press enter. Replace "xx" with the load order number of the Fellkreath Cottage mod. You can find this out by opening Nexus Mod Manager and looking at the "load order" column. Type "enable" and press enter. Close the console and retrieve your items. Open the console and type "disable" and press enter. Close the console.

Fellkreath cottage is a Hearthfire style build-your-own home located next to the Hammerfell border, south west of Falkreath. It contains all the basic features you would expect from a player home, with some extra features and customisation options. When fully built, the cottage will have all of the following...When you arrive at the map marker, you will see a sign post. Activate the sign and you can purchase the plot of land for 3500 gold. You will have two options...Once you have chosen an option, use the drafting table to plan out your cottage and then use the crafting bench to start building. You will need a lot of firewood, stone, clay and other materials. A wood chopping block, anvil and smelter are provided for you and there are clay and stone deposits near to your workbenches.Once you have finished the main cottage, the tower option will become available at the drafting table and the basement option will become available at the workbench under the misc. section. The drafting table can also be used to remove the internal workbenches when you have finished furnishing a room. Once you have finished building your home, you can remove the external building equipment by using the journal next to the front door inside the house.Make sure to bring plenty of iron ingots as well as some corundum ingots, glass and straw. Special furniture options such as the enchanter, alchemy lab, shrines etc will require different materials such as gold, silver and moonstone ingots, gemstones and divine amulets.If you are using Frostfall or a needs mod, I would recommend that you bring along a tent and/or plenty of food.This mod is compatible with Custom Family Home . Your family must already be living in an existing vanilla or hearthfire home before moving them. There are optional pieces of furniture available that you must build before relocating your family...- Install this patch if you want to use Unique Border Gates and Fellkreath Cottage together. Before installing, I would recommend creating a save game in an internal cell away from the border. Install the patch and reload your save. If Nexus Mod Manager asks if you want to update, choose no and install as a normal file.Your load order should look like this...UniqueBorderGates-All.espFellkreathCottage.espFellkreathUniqueGatesPatch.espMake sure Fellkreath Cottage is loadedUnique Border Gates or you will get grass clipping through your porches.
