Five Ranger+ House - Relocated Edition
This mod is a relocated version of the "Riverwood Green House" from the original Five Ranger+ House. To avoid heavy mod conflicts near the Sleeping Giant Inn (Riverwood center), the house has been moved to a quieter location just outside of Riverwood.
Important Notice for New Game Playthroughs:
If you are using "Riverwood Cliff House" alongside "Five Ranger+ House - Relocated Edition" , it is essential to install and activate the respective compatibility patches.
Using these mods together without the patches will cause significant NPC pathing issues during the early Main Quest "Before the Storm" (MQ102).
- Specifically, when following Hadvar or Ralof to Riverwood after escaping Helgen, they may unexpectedly dive into the river before reaching the main gate and try to climb back up from the central sandbar.
- Additionally, Gerdur may take a long, unnatural detour when heading to the large tree stump to speak with Ralof at the lumber mill.
To ensure Hadvar, Ralof, and Gerdur follow their intended paths correctly, please make sure the patches are active.
For Existing Save Data:
If you are adding these mods to an ongoing playthrough, please first try adjusting your load order.
However, if you notice NPCs getting stuck, standing still, or failing to move near the Riverwood lumber mill, please install the compatibility patches to fix the pathfinding. These patches will update the Navmesh and ensure NPCs can navigate the area smoothly again.
[Changes from the Original]
This version relocates the house coordinates. To ensure stability, I have created a new, independent interior cell for this version.
- Interior Updates: The basic layout is the same, but a refrigerator and kitchen sink have been added.
- Gear Balancing: The stats for the "Ranger Robes" and "Boots" have been nerfed to balanced values that won't break game balance.
- Rangers' Waiting Room: Added a dedicated area for the Rangers, located right next to the player's home (Riverwood Green House).
- Crafting Overhaul: Shampoo and Soap are now crafted via the "Supply Ledger" instead of being sold at Riverwood Trader.
- Process: Produce "Wheat Germ Oil" from Wheat, then combine it with Lavender at the Supply Ledger.
Important Note on Storage:
Please be aware that since this is a different cell from the original mod, all storage containers (chests, wardrobes, etc.) are treated as entirely separate entities. Your items will not be shared or synchronized between the original and this relocated version. If you are moving from the original mod, please make sure to transfer your items manually.
[Important: If Switching from the Original Version]
Items and magic effects cannot be transferred. To safely switch from the original mod, please follow these steps:
- Wait for all Magic Effects granted by the original mod to expire. Ensure your character is "clean" of any mod-related buffs/debuffs.
- Remove all your items from the original house's containers.
- Drop or sell any unique items added by the original mod.
- Save your game and uninstall the original mod.
- Install this mod and load your save.
[Notes]
Note 1 (Supply Ledger Bug): After use, your camera may freeze or interaction may fail. Simply jump once to reset.
Note 2 (Gullfaxi / Horse Bug): If Gullfaxi blocks the road, or if you cannot mount him after installation: Fast Travel to The Guardian Stones, then run back. This reload will fix the mounting issue.
[FAQ]
Q1: What happens if I use this with the original version?
A: Five more followers with the same initials will be added. The population around the Riverwood Mill will double! The lunch spots (stumps) and the Sleeping Giant Inn (at 8 PM) will be extremely crowded. Plus, you won't be able to tell the Rangers apart!
Q2: Can I transfer items stored in the original house?
A: No. Although the layout is the same, the House ID is different. Containers will not share items.
Q3: Why are some items in the Supply Ledger so expensive?
A: Think of it as handling and shipping fees. However, alcohol is ordered in bulk, so shipping is free!
Thank you for using this mod.
