Hi mari-rae, maybe after I finish my big quest mod and port to SE :D I'm surprised I left them out...
mari-rae 4 Feb, 2022 @ 10:42pm 
Could we please have weapon racks between the manniquins in Lakeview's basement?

Hi Alpharius,

Thanks so very much! It took a heck of a long time to build and refine...glad it's fun.
Zacharius Sneed 26 Nov, 2021 @ 9:07pm 
Very epic, this was by far the best basement mod for any home, not just the hearthfire ones. Thanks for responding, have a good one.
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 26 Nov, 2021 @ 6:06pm 
Hi Alpharius,

Thank you for asking after the mod. I've been behind on porting since working on my quest mod. Once it's done, I will get to it. Hoping for the turn of the year.
Zacharius Sneed 24 Nov, 2021 @ 2:14pm 
Is this coming to SSE at all?
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 24 Oct, 2021 @ 5:56pm 
HI Blake, Thank you very much! The vanilla basements were really such a throw-away...and I really like the shrine to Hircine. Lighting the candles lets you pet-da- bunnies...
Blake 21 Oct, 2021 @ 3:50pm 
Fantastic set of mods. This is only player home mod I ever use anymore, it's just so personal
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 10 Oct, 2021 @ 11:20am 
onepain, once I've finished my magnum opus (started Alpha testing) I will try to port to Nexus.
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 10 Oct, 2021 @ 11:18am 
Hello Everyone, I've been away from Steam for a while working on my Thieves Guild expansion Thanks for helping each other out in the meantime. Just a note to anyone new, I made a more comprehensive suite of mods that includes all three build-able homes. I'd recommend that one.

Falling through the floor eh? I have trouble with that from time to time in the Cistern. A cleaner save solves my problem, but if I figure it out, i'll let you know.
Todd 24 Jul, 2021 @ 3:14pm 
I can't get it to work. All I get is a hole leading into the white outer-whatever.
onepain 30 Jun, 2021 @ 2:58pm 
would love this in SSE
TheFir3Crack3r 22 Aug, 2020 @ 8:29am 
I'm falling through the floor in the basement of Heljarchen Hall every other time and end up behind a mannequin in the new parts of the basement. I have walled up the wall a few times and changed it again and that have seems to messed something up
TheFir3Crack3r 19 Aug, 2020 @ 9:04am 
When I first entered basement in Heljarchen, I fell through the floor and a few seconds later everything was back to normal. This was before and after I added the extra rooms.

Hi CTMoo, thank you for taking the time to write. It was made with a lot of love. There is no problem not having the DLC's. I try to make my mods playable first with just Skyrim, and in this case, also Hearthfires There is a DLC addition if you have DB or DG, but only for Lakeview. 'Fraid I ran out of steam after the basements..ha..ha...now I'm building a big fat quest mod as an extension of my Brynjolf has Time mod.
CTMoo 6 Jun, 2020 @ 9:00am 
This mod looks insanely thorough, beautiful, thoughtful, and time consuming! Not to be a total cheeseball, but there's obviously so much love in this!!!

I don't have the Dawnguard or Dragonborn DLCs, only Hearthfire; Are there any issues without those two? * I haven't yet subscribed because I'm still figuring out what mods I want. *

Thanks again, this is so beautiful!! :steamhappy:
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 18 Apr, 2020 @ 7:13pm 
Hi freijon,

I'm glad you like the mod. Thanks for trying it out. I will try to get around to making the workbench disappear when you remove the vanilla bench ( does it do that already? It's been a while, you see) and the test chest...ha...ha... I do forget to remove them....please fee free to delete it with the console command. I'm just super-occupied with my big quest mod .....
freijon 16 Apr, 2020 @ 12:52pm 
I really love this mod. However the second workbench and the Test Chest break the immersion a bit... Is there no way to remove them?
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 11:27am 
Hi freault,

That's a great idea! Building a memorial in game....I'd have to make a character that repairs old Dwemer artifacts and name him Morton.
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 11:26am 
Hi Dark Bone,

Hey, if you use Windstad, you could lay them all down in the creepy Daedric mausoleum. I should put a shelf to place all those random skulls...like an ossuary.
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 14 Apr, 2020 @ 4:54pm 
HI freault, Happy Easter!

Glad to be back...all this social isolation has to be good for something and that something is modding! I know you'll sympathise with me when I tell you I also lost my Dad. He fell and broke his hip mid December, and passed away on January 10th. it was not out of season, but sooner than I'd thought. Glad he missed the COVID though. How are you?
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 11 Apr, 2020 @ 9:53am 
Thank you Dark Bone! Glad you like it. I really find the banners fun. Thanks for trying it out.
Ship Boat 8 Sep, 2019 @ 7:42pm 
thank you so very much, I cant wait
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 8 Sep, 2019 @ 7:06pm 
Aw Thanks Ship Boat ...I'm just behind in my uploading to Nexus. I have to redo all the weapon racks for SE (it's the one thing that doesn't transfer) and the basement has so many...but you've asked so nicely...I'll do my best.
Ship Boat 4 Sep, 2019 @ 8:33pm 
I absolutely love this mod, used it when I played through skyrim a few years ago, now i am back into skyrim but am playing on the enhanced edition and i am so very sad that this mod isnt on the enhanced edition, it is the one thing i am missing from my game

Hi jammingjos13524,
Look for the urn! (mantle piece)
jammingjos13524 3 Aug, 2019 @ 5:41pm 
Where is the key in H Hall
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 21 Apr, 2019 @ 5:20pm 
Hi Proctor, continued:

Choose one version of Summerset Cabin; (one is for vanilla weather the other includes COT) Same with the Breezehome mod. The Simple Hearthfires Breezehome Basement is the most complete mod, and the DLC goes with it. Choose either Breezehome enchanting, according to how many DLC's you have...a tiny but truly useful mod.

Finally, the Queen of Thieves and the Brynjolf has Time mods stand alone, but also work together. There are several older versions of "Brynjolf" posted but not public. The public version, is the most up to date. I am currently working on a large expansion of this mod, with multiples quests. Lots of treasure, fights dungeons and lots of new dialogue for the members of the Thieves Guild. Even a few original fully voiced characters. It will take time but it'll be worth it!
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 21 Apr, 2019 @ 5:20pm 
Hi Proctor, sorry for the slow reply.

You are most kind! I'm delighted you like the mods. I'm guessing we speak the same language in terms of appreciating a vanilla look and feel, but more interaction. Of course, all my mods work together, but just make sure you have only one version of each.

There are a couple of suites of mods that are updates, but I haven't taken down the original in case a Player is using it. The "Additions" mods - main house, basement and DLC - are the same as the "Additions to Lakeview" suite (house and DLC) except with the other two homes also treated, so I would recommend these newer, more complete versions. Look for "Windstad, Lakeview and Heljarchen in the name, except for the DLC, which is "...to the Hearthfires Homes". (This is because I've only completed Lakeview here.)
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 21 Apr, 2019 @ 4:58pm 
Hi Alpharius ,
Yes, I too get a warning in CK about Heljarchen but it's as clean as I can make it. It's most likely the issue of having to disable the wall so you can walk through the doorway. Most of the mod is original, so conflicts are usually few.
Thanks for the feedback! Always good to know.
Proctor 6 Apr, 2019 @ 5:35pm 
Love your work!! I'd like to use as many of your mods as I can just so i can keep it straight in my head which if any of your mods are incompatible with each other?
Zacharius Sneed 25 Mar, 2019 @ 8:16pm 
Get a weird error when loading but everything ingame seems fine.
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 16 Feb, 2019 @ 1:43pm 
Hi t-macdonnell ,

Please excuse me for taking so long to reply. January was very hectic. Thank you for taking the time to write. I really like the basements myself...and just loathed the vanilla decor. The game in general is gorgeous, but there are places that nevertheless feel like people just ran out of time. The banner display makes me happy. It was a suggestion from a Skyrim friend of mine, Roy D. Loudbark.
t-macdonnell 3 Feb, 2019 @ 5:41pm 
This is a really great mod. I like the way each basement is a ranged. I especially like the attention you added to the thieves guild, dark brotherhood, and vampires, which let us places our quest item and armors for display. Thanks for making this great mod!:steamhappy:
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 7 Nov, 2018 @ 5:56pm 
Hi torcwisteria ,

Ha..ha.. ha! Great to hear! I love the banners and teh Windstad shrine - go the idea for the banners from a friend adn my husband sugested the shrine. Nice and creepy. Glad it's working for you.:)
Wisteria 2 Nov, 2018 @ 5:27pm 
Okay. I am having WAY too much fun with these extra basements... :)
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 13 Oct, 2018 @ 9:43pm 
Salut La loutre alcoolique,

Je suis ravi que vous ayez trouvé ce mod à votre goût. Le kit de création est tellement amusant. Oui, posez-moi s'il vous plaît une question si vous rencontrez des problèmes. Je vais essayer de répondre dans les meilleurs délais.
Wight wolf 13 Oct, 2018 @ 11:54am 
Exactement ce que je cherchais merci ! je t'ajoute en liste d'amis car je vais essayé de faire une maison moi aussi , tu m'as beaucoup inspiré! voudrais tu bien me conseiller quelques outils nécessaire pour avoir un aussi beau rendu que tes chef-d'oeuvre ? ( j'adore les panier de pomme qui servent uniquement au pommes , les bac à potion pour les potions ect et tes salles de bain me font réver)
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 30 Aug, 2018 @ 8:39am 
Hi kommongrounder,

I'm delighted you like the mod. Thanks for taking the time to write. This suite took me more than a year....I needed more mannequins too! I try to keep the feeling vanilla though, because, like you, I really admire the original designer's work.
kommongrounder 29 Aug, 2018 @ 7:04pm 
So i'm not a mod type player, just like to keep to the original script, but I finally hit my problem with in the game... not enough mannequins. I found this mod and just for the fact you had 5 stars and boasted 11 mannequins I subscribed. This mod is so much more.. i'm blown away !! Thank you for your time, effort and talent to make our game so much more to play !!
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 10 Jun, 2018 @ 8:45am 
Hi Stern, did I not do that?

Yes, that is easily remedied. I'll make a note and try to do that soon.
Anti-Millionaire Immortal Snail 9 Jun, 2018 @ 11:50pm 
Is there a way you could make it so when I remove the normal benches the test chest and the bench for the addition get removed as well?
WillowArcane 6 Jun, 2018 @ 1:50pm 
My apologies, your mod was indeed not checked. It's working now :)
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 6 Jun, 2018 @ 8:20am 
Hi WillowArcane,

Could I please ask you to make sure the box is checked under "data" when you start the game. You may have subbed, but it hasn't been automatically marked as active. You should see a pair of Dwemer pipes hanging over the forge too (even if you've not built in there yet).
WillowArcane 4 Jun, 2018 @ 8:44pm 
I'm afraid I wouldn't know, Lakeview is the only one I've built
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 4 Jun, 2018 @ 6:42pm 
Hi WillowArcane,

Does the bench appear in either Heljarchen or Windstad? Is Lakeview the only location affected?
elizabethjacksonhall  [author] 4 Jun, 2018 @ 6:40pm 
Hi bmben29,

I've not the foggiest....I didn't touch the main enchanting table and I've no idea why the workbenches would appear in the grey-space. I'd check load order with LOOT or somesuch (always helps me...). I didn't touch any of the wings except the main floor bedroom and central hall, just so you could use other mdos....
Wish I could help you.
