=====================================
Strotis Old Mill Resource for Skyrim
=====================================

by Stroti

Modders resource
=============================

This is the conversion of Strotis old mill resource
You can find the original files here:

http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/42879/

=============================

There are two demo esps included for a quick overview of the two versions of the mill and the house: "aaStrotiMillDemo.esp" and "aaStrotiHouseDemo.esp". Please only activate one of them as they use the same place! Both versions can be found near Riverwood Bridge, you cannot miss them. There is also a map marker included. They are roughly navmeshed on the outside and on the lower floor to avoid some oddities when you have a follower ^^.

=============================

Mill:
The original has fully animated mill-gears, mill-wheel and millstone. I did not manage to port over the complicated animation for the mechanism so the mill gear remains static. Maybe some day in the future ...
But I managed to animate the row boat, the toolshed door and the chimney door.
I did not include the mill wheel as there are already animated mill wheels in Skyrim, so I retextured the existing ones to match the appearance of the house and included them.

=============================

Alternate House:
As the mill gear is not working, I decided to modify the mill to a normal house as an alternate version. I removed from the exterior and interior the parts that are used by the gear, only a small pit on the first floor and small hole in the ceiling remained. You can use the pit as a bathtub or something like that or drop a static on it to make it invisible.
I also textured it a bit more lightly than the old mill.

=============================

Alternate no-window-light files:
For those who prefer unlighted windows, I included an extra folder "House No Window Lighting" will all interior and exterior meshes with unlighted windows.

=============================

Besides the house and the millwheel there are included:

Tool shed with stairs and animated door
Podest with stairs
Row boat, animated and not animated
Handcart with sacks
4 different sacks
Rope with hook
Millstone
2 different ovens, one of them with 3 different textures
Weathercock
Birdcage
and a teapot


=============================
Notes:

The mill wheels need to be scaled down in the CK, a scale of 0.7 works fine
The same applies to the chimney door, a scale of 0.5 looks good.
