Paused Creek Campground - Revisited

Transform Halted Stream Camp into a more interesting and dynamic dungeon. Up to 50% more size!

My mod donation

"Gotta use a sharp ax to chop off all the fat..."

Why did I create this?

In my opinion, the dungeons and ruins in Skyrim are generally weak. They are too straightforward and difficult to move. Exploration is not the same thing because there is only one way. In a game that's primarily about dungeon crawling, that's not exactly a fun thing to do. Dungeons should be challenging, confusing and fun. Halted Stream Camp is a fairly small dungeon that takes about 5-10 minutes to clear. There's only one option that's not that interesting. Now there's more to explore and you won't get bored.

What was added?

Many new paths, rooms and enemies added. Everything added is in keeping with the theme of the original dungeon, and I've been working on being lore-friendly. I want my creations to be indistinguishable from the vanilla game. I was also careful not to add too much loot that would increase the player's wealth and power, but players should still be able to find some rewards. Now, suspended streaming camps will take about twice as long to clear.

What I want to achieve

A fun new experience that both new and experienced players can enjoy. You can get lost and have to retrace your steps, and that's the whole point. Fighting bandits in an abandoned mine is not the way to go. Not now!

Install

"Gotta have a sharp axe to cut through all that fat..."

Why did I create this?

Dungeons and ruins in Skyrim are generally underwhelming in my opinion. They areway too straight forward and made to be easily traversed. Exploration isn't a thing as there is only one path. That isn't fun in a game primarily about dungeon delving. Dungeons should be challenging, confusing and interesting. Halted Stream Camp is a fairly small dungeon that takes about 5-10 minutes to clear. There is only one path to chose from which is not that interesting. Now there is more exploration and you won't get bored to death.

What has been added?

A lot of new paths, rooms and enemies have been added. Everything added fits with the theme of the original dungeon, I always strive to be lore-friendly. I want my creations to be indistinguishable from the vanilla game. I have also taken care to not add to much loot as to not inflate the players wealth and power but there should still be some rewards for the player to find. Halted Stream Camp should take about double the time to clear now.

What I want to achieve

An interesting new experience ideal for both new and returning players. You might get lost and have to retrace your steps, and that is the point. Fighting bandits in an abandoned mine shouldn't be on rails. Now it isn't!

Installation

Install with mod manager of your choice.
