Environmental Story Expansion

New additions to the in-game environmental story.

One of the things Bethesda does really well is environmental storytelling. Basically the idea is to encounter a corpse or strange sighting in the vast open world and use the clues the surrounding area gives you to piece together the story. I myself have found that this is one thing Bethesda does better than almost any game developer. Wanting to be an amateur storyteller myself, I decided to try my hand at this medium of storytelling. I placed many scenes in Skyrim. Some tragic, some silly, some referencing other media and even some of my friends from the modding community. Can you find them?

future plans

• Keep more implemented. The goal is to hit 100 new additions, which is unlikely to be achieved because I've either run out of ideas or places to get them into the world. Skyrim is vast, but it's still limited. I will add an update every 10 times, adding 100 mark version 1.0.
• Improved clutter in already implemented scenes.
• Maybe, Mabe, look at doing Solsheim. I also want to do Falskaar and other new land mods, although I will be honest I'm a bit lazy.

FAQ

Q: Why is everyone dead?

A: Because of the medium in which these stories are presented, it's difficult to have a living person. In other words, this mod adds 2 living npcs. Well, I guess a year and a half?

Q: Can you make patches for the X mod?

Answer: Probably yes. I don't use many mods myself, so compatibility hasn't been tested, although I have a list of mods I'm concerned about. If you find a problem, please mention it in the post tag. In the worst case you will have clipped objects without any CTD or corrupted saves.

Q: Can she open it?

A: Yes, but only with help in certain modes.

Q: Some of the new objects in your mod exist when I approach them.

Answer: Yes, because these objects do not have LODs generated for them. If this bothers you, run SSELODGen or Dyndolod.

Question: LE version.

A: It’s not difficult to do it yourself.

Compatibility issues

Here is a list of mods that I (potentially) have issues with, although I doubt there are any issues and I'm just being erring on the side of caution. I'll confirm over time if they are there, worst case scenario you have clipping objects as this mod doesn't have scripts or anything like that.

Legacy of the Dragon Clan

Beyond the Sky: Bruma

forgotten dungeon

Skyrim Man (any version)

Confirm incompatibility

Vendors - Skyrim's Tragic Tales: There is overlap between the two mods in terms of NPCs and story.

Future plans

-Keep implementing more. The goal is to hit 100 new additions, this goal is unlikely to be reached as I will either run out of ideas or run out of places to put them into the world. Skyrim is vast but it is still finite. I will post an update every 10 additions with 100 additions marking Version 1.0.

-Ever improve the cluttering of the already implemented scenes.

-Maybe, MAYBE, look at doing Solstheim. I'd also like to do Falskaar and other new lands mods, though I'll be honest I'm a bit lazy.
