[REQ] Morrowind-Style Item Placement

Post » Tue May 15, 2012 2:50 pm

Guys there's a seriously annoying bug when I'm placing out items! When I place them out somewhere and save afterwards, it reverts back to the place I originally dropped it out of my inventory after I leave /re enter the house or load the game. This happens with most items I place out but not all! Anyone else experiencing this? Can anyone help? Placing items is my favourite aspect of TES games and I can't do it now so I'm sad.

Bethesda has already been able to 'freeze' objects into place, like a sword being stuck in a rock without making it glitch all over the place, and not actually moving unless you force it out with a lighting spell or equivalent... It would be nice if we could do it in game as well. :)
There may be a console command to do this. I believe it could be done in Oblivion through scripting and scripts can generally be reproduced in the console.

I posted a similar request earlier for a museum mod http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1267208-req-museum-mod/page__p__19258352__fromsearch__1#entry19258352.

I do love my Morrowind museum...miss it really...(lost the save file ages ago). I did not have much of a museum in oblivion though, but, now I am really wanting one in Skyrim!

My vote is for the ability to use buttons/keyboard keys to rotate the held item in 3 dimensions: X, Y and Z axis (not neccessarily those buttons, dont want to shout while placing stuff). and to have a "lock in place" button. that would be so nice.

That would be perfect, and possibly even do-able!

I spent twenty minutes arranging Dwemer artifacts in my house today. Came back later and they were all over the floor. I was really pissed.
