Easy Cow and Goat Milking SE

Add animated interactions that allow you to milk cows and goats every day. A fire is needed.

thakyZ ported this mod from the Skyrim Simple Cow and Goat Milking mod; uses scripts for the Berts Hearthfire dairy upgrade.

Original post description:

Requires hearing extension

Have you ever wanted to simply walk up to a cow on a farm and milk her to prevent death from hunger and thirst? Or just want extra canned milk to make?

Now you can. This mod adds the ability for you to move around, activate a cow or goat, and watch a brief animation before receiving a jug of milk. That's it. There are some milking mods out there, but they tend to add a lot of extra stuff that I have no interest in. This mod just adds interactivity.

You can milk them once a day. If you try again later, you'll receive a simple message telling you.

It affects all basic cows and domesticated goats in the game (you can't milk wild goats, and frankly you shouldn't try). It will also affect goats and cows placed by any mod as long as it uses the same type of cow and goat NPC. For example, animals added in Dawn of Whiterun will work fine with this mod.

Question:

Cow and goat animations can sometimes be a bit weird.

The placement of useful buckets when milking goats is also a little weird.

Otherwise it works fine.

Future plans:

I don't know if it is compatible with Skytest or other animal models if I think it is needed.

If I can figure out how the script works with milking mammoths, maybe a new mammoth dairy will be added (for making mammoth cheese, of course). Compatibility with RND and any possible troubles.

REQUIRES THE HEARTHFIRE EXPANSION

Have you ever wanted to simply walk up to a cow in a farm and milk it to stave off death added by a hunger and thirst mod? Or just wanted extra jugs of milk for crafting?

Well now you can. This mod adds the ability for you to walk up, activate a cow or goat, and watch a brief animation before you receive a jug of milk. That's it.There have been a few milking mods out there but they tended to add so much extra stuff that I had no interest in. This mod just adds the interaction.

It will also affect any mod placed goats and cows so long as it uses the same type of cow and goat npc. For example, the animals added in Dawn of Whiterun work fine with this mod.

Issues:

Sometimes cow and goat animations can get a little weird.

The placement of the helpful bucket can also get a little weird when milking goats.

Otherwise it works fine.

Future Plans:

I dunno, compatibility for Skytest or other animal mods if I think it's needed.

Possibly the ability to milk mammoths with the addition of a new mammoth milk item (for crafting into mammoth cheese of course) if I can figure out how the script works with them. Compatibility with RND and whatever would be a pain though.

To berticus0001 who made the milking script this mod uses. I just took it and stuffed it into an extremely simplistic mod.
