[REQ] My list of Dream Mods in Skyrim

Post » Tue May 15, 2012 11:18 am

My appreciation in advance to the talented modders who will no doubt mod Skyrim to be even better what Bethesda intended.
Anyway here are a list of mods, i feel ought to be modded. Thanks again for reading.

I play mostly as a mage character, so most of this mods will be mage related.

1) Spellmaking
The most requested feature. I miss spellmaking so much from previous games.
I suppose this mod would need Skyrim equivalent of OBSE to work. (SKSE)?

2) Open / Lock Spells
As a Mage, i find it wierd to have to use picklock for every locked chest or door.
Why can't i just cast a spell to open or lock them?

3) A teleport ring to Winterhold / horse carriage service / teleport service to major towns.
Personally i don't use fast travel but i do use horse carriages. Travelling to and fro to Winterhold on foot is kind of a pain.
I haven't complete the mages quests yet so im not sure if you get a teleport ring at the end of it.
Alternatively, please put a horse carriage service in Winterhold so we can at least use it to travel to other cities.

4) A chance to join the Psijic Order.
Not sure if it can be done, but i think it would be cool if we have a chance to open up a new questline involving
the Psijic Order after we become Arch Mage (i believe there weren't any choice to do so after being Arch-Mage)

5) Wearing Spectacles for me and other related scholarly type npcs in Skyrim.
This was a very nice mod i used in Oblivion which i believed was crafted by Kafei.
What it does is to let the player suffer a distortion effect if he/she did not wear eyeglasses, Although if you wear them, your INT increases.
He crafted it also that i was not the only one in the world who needs eyeglasses, as there are several npcs (mostly scholarly) types who wear them too.
Loved it very much and hope it would be available in Skyrim.

6) Respec potion for Perks.
Not sure if this option is available ingame, but it would be nice to allow respec for players who wish to respec their perks.

7) Dude wheres my horse (Skyrim Edition)
Nuff said. i wanna know where my horse ran off to :D

8) Wear more then 1 ring.
Oblivion gave us 2 rings to wear, which was already too little compared to Morrowind, and yet Skyrim offers only 1???
Im convinced this is a bug, and really hope for this to be patched ASAP, or if not, to be modded in soon.

9) Walking / Running leaves footsteps in the snow.
Would be nice if i am able to leave footsteps in the snow that disappears after awhile.
Found it abit strange that there aren't any.

10) Option to dress up a follower in any clothing i want them to.
I understand currently a follower would only wear armor that has better stats.
Would be nice for us to remove whatever they are wearing, and put on something else
(Eg: an evening gown or something casual) during times when we don't go adventuring and just hanging around in town.)

11) More interesting options for Marriage.
Certainly the marriage options can be expanded on. Im not gonna go into specifics, and im quite sure
the modders already have wicked ideas on how to expand this :D

*edit* just thought i'd add this in.
12) Selling / Buying things does not increase your speechcraft.
Find it a abit funny that i can gain level just by selling and buying stuffs. I hope for speechcraft not to factor in the leveling of
my character. I prefer my character to gain level using her spells and combat skills, rather then being a silver tongue lol.


Thanks for reading..
These are the list of dream mods i would love to have that i could possibly think of.

+1 approval of the where is my horse mod. Actually it would be really cool if someone could bring in the horse call whistle that was in the Oblivion mod Nehrim. It would summon your horse to you, that would be freaking awesome.
I too would like some of those, like spellmaking. Also some cooler, more mystical looking robes. I would like to wear glasses or something similar, but it would be cool to have two head slots so I could wear a hood with that, or a circlet with my hood etc.

1) Spellmaking
I'd love this one myself, not too sure of the difficulty considering the CK isn't out and I'm not sure how much has changed.

2) Open / Lock Spells
This one should actually be do-able with just the CK itself, probably quite easily.

3) A teleport ring to Winterhold / horse carriage service / teleport service to major towns.
Same as above

4) A chance to join the Psijic Order.
Possible, but I personally haven't seen any other NPC's from the Psijic Order other than the main questline, so not really sure how useful this would be unless you added a ton of content.

5) Wearing Spectacles for me and other related scholarly type npcs in Skyrim.
I don't see why this one wouldn't be possible, I believe they would act more or less as helmets, I'm not sure if we have any "hidden" slots available for equip.

6) Respec potion for Perks.
This one should be fairly easy, just a scripted item that possibly opens a menu to let you choose which constellation to change or even which perk specifically to remove.

7) Dude wheres my horse (Skyrim Edition)
Depends how you want this one done? Not really sure exactly HOW you'd want this one to work? Like the "Show Living" shout but only shows your horse?

8) Wear more then 1 ring.
Not sure about this one, I don't know if equipment slots can be changed or added

9) Walking / Running leaves footsteps in the snow.
Wondered this myself, though not entirely sure how "nice" it would look depending how someone would decide to do it if at all.

10) Option to dress up a follower in any clothing i want them to.
This one I'm not sure the difficulty as some things seem to have changed but I imagine it should happen fairly quickly as people will want to be making their own companions and dressing them up.

11) More interesting options for Marriage.
Needs more than just expanding, needs a revamp as far as I'm concerned, whats with the monogamy man! Being a widow svcks when you kill your spouse.

I hope this mod will work like how the original Dude wheres my horse worked, which was to
have a quest, and when u select it, a quest marker appears to lead you to your horse location.

KeeleeHamomin posted another more immersive way for this, which was a do a whistle and the horse would run to you.

Oh, then that would be fairly simple... Just have a quest that can be repeated that activates on item usage or spell usage and creates a quest marker to your horses reference ID, although I don't know what happens when you have multiple horses I've only ever bought one in both my console and pc save, I'd guess your new horse replaces the old. You would also have to account for that if you changed horses while the quest was still active. You could also make the horse come to you quite easily, I believe there are functions for commanding an NPC to path find a reference, would be nice to force the horse to sprint and possibly have infinite stamina while doing so, which would also be possible.
