The difficulties of being an interior decorator.

Hi just joined the forum, but yeah i tried to stack about 30 bottles of honningbrew mead onto the dinner table in whiterun, 15 minutes it took me! Then when i leave the house and come back later what do i see? 30 freakin honningbrew mead bottles on the floor after i painstakingly spent all that time individually placing them neatly on my table. :dry: Neadless to say, i have now learnt how to keep items to stay in place thanks to the advice from the good people on this forum. :biggrin:

Do you have the 1.6 update? If so, what's the most effective way you've found to place bottles? I find it quite difficult and frustrating.

This was before 1.6 unfortunately, and from my experience post patch it seems to be more awkard placing bottles which is odd. But here is what i do now, i just kind of force the bottle against the surface that i want to put it on and the bottle magically seems to just flip into the right spot so that it stands up perfectly onto the surface.

It is strange how we can still grab dead NPCs wherever we point our cross hairs but it doesn't work for basic items. I'm curious as to why and how this change was made in the 1.6 update. Is there anywhere on this forum that we can post bugs? I'm wondering if Bethesda is aware of this. If enough people voice their concern or displeasure with this, the better chance they might fix it. It would seem like it would be a simple fix. Maybe something they could throw in even on the Dawnguard DLC, I don't know. But then again, I don't make and program games so perhaps it is something much more complicated.

I guess Housecarls are not very good home makers, nor are they very careful (ie. walking on tables to screw your stuff up while you're away).

I really hope Dawnguard opens up nice places to live. I would like some mannequins and cases to hold my precious belongings.

They should fix the the mechanism so you can set up items similar to Oblivions design, in that items would straighten themselves up properly in this game you have to be careful not to knock everything in the floor as you decorate, then there is the exploding item bug I really hope this is reworked and fixed on the future.

Has there been any actual mention from Bethesda (in one of their updates) that shows that they addressed the items being placed going back to where they were dropped?
