Do it! I'd love to have more creative homes and environments to explore! If you start now, you may be able to get really good before Elder Scrolls 6 is released, and then you'd get a large audience of players new to the franchise.
Thanks for the video and thanks to Elfiemyrtle3 for providing a new home on my next playthrough. The garden with the flowers and the space for many followers and children is exactly what I need. btw 9:22 looks kinda like a Van Gogh painting.
Breathtaking. The amount of details and new assets is astounding. I cannot begin to imagine the sheer number of hours and labor of love for this. The floors alone. Wow. Great find. Great showcase. Top notches!
She sent me screenshots of it in early development, and I was already hooked. She spent a lot of time getting this one ready, especially in the final hours. And yes, those textures are amazing! I can't decide if I like the floors or the arcane enchanter the best. Thanks for the compliment!
Yes, it does! Welcome back, friend! I remember that you were one of my first comments ever on my channel! You really encouraged me with your comment on my less-than-polished video, and I appreciated it!
Thank you! Your positive comments fuel me to keep going! And I feel you on the SSD. I made the mistake of sticking modded Skyrim on my SSD that only had 512 gb on my old computer. On my new PC, I bought a 4tb m.2 SSD for all of the mods and video files. lol
What a tour-de-force? What features does this home not have? The views are spectacular, and I like the follower quarters. The home is way too big for my tastes, but it is exceptional!
@EverydayMick It really is a special home with unique features and great views. While it's big, it's actually really easy to navigate and doesn't feel overwhelming. When you first download it, you'll definitely want to make a few trips around to get the lay of the land, but I've been in it for about a week, and you can get anywhere in the home fairly quickly. Glad you liked it!
Nice job showing the mod as I knew nothing about the author. So i have fell into another treasure chest. Going back and looking at the other mods shows the need for your work as I kind of felt lost with lack of pictures for scholars Retreat. I subscribed so maybe I will find that one. 😎
@KennethJarvis-j9m Absolutely! If you look at my pinned comment on this video, you can find a playlist of all of the ElfieMyrtle homes, other than Crypt Lair. Glad you enjoyed the show, and thanks for the sub!
Your map for where this place is, was... Interesting. Normally you show us a map with the North being at the top. But today, you went with East being at the top. _Which was different!_ As for the property. It's quite stunning. If a little rambling for my liking.
Another commentor criticized my map textures in a recent video, so I switched to Flat Map Framework, which I was having trouble showing a good position from a Northern view, since it isn't like a 3d map, where you can get a better aerial view. I did show 5 different surrounding spots to make it clear and showed a world space view, so it shows its position relative to surrounding areas. It also has a fast travel map marker enabled from the start of your game, so it should be pretty easy to find and travel to. In other news, I've already switched back to my other map. :)
Going to go install it right now. That is like perfection. Fantastic video too. I think about getting all the followers together and situated and then the kids. Well done.
That's exactly what I did. I used Live Another Life to start at the inn in Falkreath to recruit Lucien right away and then go from there. Thanks for the compliment! ElfieMyrtle makes fantastic homes! I'm trying to convince her to building one of her cool homes in Bruma, especially near that location where Waterview is... Can you imagine that?
Once you’re on that train, you’re on that train for life. I think that she has other shacks though from what I see. I’m hoping someone puts one of those into a wabbajack mod pack one of these days (or if they have I’ve missed it).
@bpbqueen Yes, you're right. Every time I play, I'm ready to go on the 10 septim tour. 😆 It's hard to beat the safehouse, having the Dev Aveza, freeing the museum of the spirits, retrieving the stolen artifacts, etc.
Imagine this home with Light placer bulbs(dbottle and friends came out with a synthesis patcher for this mod)! Even more so with the Window Shadows Ultimate. I use those two mods. Or Lux(I’ve used the suite for months before). ^_^ Also I love the floor and curtains. ❤ Though I’ll hold off on installing because my modlist is heavy already lol(it has both LOTD and Relics of Hyrule plus the Vicn saga, and other quest mods including Olenveld). My frames would tank so hard if I added this one haha.
I want to experiment. I got to do some testing of this before it came out, and the mod author had me disable LUX, because it can change the meshes, and she wanted it shown in its vanilla state, so I'd like to see how it could look with a few mods installed. I usually have Skyrim 202x, 4k parallax, lighting mods, tree and grass mods, etc, but I turned them off for this feature. I feel you on frame rate, although I upgraded to a 4090 not too long ago, so I don't have many problems anymore. The flooring and curtains set this home apart, especially with that cool dome ceiling, too. I play with LOTD, but I haven't hear of Relics of Hyrule or Vicn Saga, so I have some research to do. I also haven't played Olenveld yet, even though I've downloaded it. Too many videos to make right now. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Two things... First, too bad she couldnt build this in its own world space away from the Forsworn. Second, how fantastic would it have been to be able to recruit your followers as wizards who came to train and use the place as their residence, with hiring Tolfdir as the Director, but only after the Main quest for the College has finished? In its own world soace that could have been a unique opportunity, something that hasnt been done before, but I digress.. Im still waiting on the perfect home mod in its own little world space with recruitment in mind, something like Hjertesten, but more depth, not just placing followers as warriors and sleeping in one bunk house like a one size fits all.. But not to knock this mod, its a fantastic mod, gorgeous even, but still doesnt fit what Im looking for in a player home.. I only wish I had the ability to mod, but sadly I dont.. Maybe one day the ultimate mod will come on line, maybe one day.
ElfieMyrtle won't make a mod like that in a separate world space. I speak with her about home mods fairly often, and she says she doesn't like homes in their own world space, because it feels too disconnected. On a separate note, did you see the new mage guild mod that came out earlier this week? Looks interesting...Maybe a little like what you're looking for, although not in it's own world space. There's also the City of Bromjunaar mod, that builds a whole city at Labyrinthian once the mage questline is done. Have you seen Havran Castle? That's in it's own world space, and they have little houses for your followers to live in. I'm with you on not being able to figure out the creation kit on my own.
I can assure you that as long as you don't shoot fireballs down to the right (Broken Tower Redoubt) or over the hill past Sundered Towers, you will not aggro any Forsworn. I admit that when I first noticed how close Broken Tower Redoubt is, I very nearly ditched the project as I had similar worries. But they turned out to be unfounded. No Forsworn has set foot anywhere near, in the four months I've been building it. Remember, Sundered Towers is only used by the player, and Broken Tower Redoubt has neither sight of nor access to the home. As to the "own worldspace" thing, SkyrimPlus has already answered that question. I do like the idea of a mage school place though. Beyond me to script, I'm afraid. I'm just a builder.
😆 I didn't make that connection until now, but that's awesome! Love The Simpsons! I covered her first home mod the day after she made it, and I wanted to give her a shout out for giving the community so many quality home mods this year. She just started modding Skyrim this year, and she gave us 7 homes! My favorite three of her mods are this one, Scholar's Retreat, and Yaholi, although they all have their share of strengths.
Yes... Like the arrow-crafting system and the summer/winter system she made for Yaholi, where you can change out walls to open and closed walls to a window wall. Super cool stuff!
Yes. I tried it from a north-facing view, but I couldn't get a good angle with a Flat Map mod I was using, so I just did it from the other way. I figured it would be easy enough to find, showing all of the other markers around it and showing it from a world space view. Someone in a previous video criticized my map mod, so I tried to switch. lol I'm going back to my old one for the future. Not a fan of flatmap framework.
This home mod is totally amazing. I love it. I also love the way you do your videos, I've been meaning to tell you that for awhile. You cover everything in such an orderly, logical way so I'm never confused or lost, and you never miss anything. I also love the way you fill all the soils, and fill the display rooms so you know how it's going to look!! It really makes my day when I see you've downloaded a video.
@janmccraw5208 That's so thoughtful of you to say! I do try my best to present in an orderly fashion. I figure that the mod author toiled for an inordinate amount of time making sure their house mods are perfect for us, so I want to show them in the best light I can. ElfieMyrtle spent months on this mod, and she deserves a lot of praise for her work. It's a great Christmas present for the Skyrim community. Thanks for watching my videos, and I'll make sure to keep the videos coming!
I hate it when YT leads me down rabbit holes and forgets to remind me of my subs. Anyways, thank god im back. I got stuck in politics for way too long there. Its 4am here in backwards arse TX, hopefully you can get me to sleep after being rage baited for the past few hours.

Elfie Myrtle makes her own textures, which is why the walls, flooring, ceiling, paintings, and work stations in the main living areas look so good.
@@SkyrimPlus i don't play family gameplays. I have My home is your home since à long time. Extravagant Interiors Solitude is not available for Xbox ( i just checked a few minutes ago )
@CREATURES59 Then you should be good to go. Extravagant Interiors only affects the walls in the bedroom and the Main Hall room, that connects the library, followers quarters, children's area, and the master bedroom. It will just have a normal Solitude look otherwise, but the cool flooring, walls, curtains, and windows in the main house that's in the worldspace will still look that good.

@RobberttheNPC It's a great option! Glad you liked it!
This is my type of home. Home with a view. 99% of house mods are claustrophobic, no view and all look the same.
This breaks the mold of the typical house mod! If you like this home, I'd suggest checking out Yaholi and Scholar's Retreat.
