A fairly conservative house mod - a manor house (Governor's Mansion mesh) that overlooks the water with a balcony and tiny garden features. I'm inspired by a comment I made on a forum post about the difficulty in making the Imperial castle-style tileset look cozy, so that's my aim - warm, lived-in and comfortable.

Welcome to the project, and the neighborhood. Wretched Fetcher and I are right across the street, so feel free to let us know if you need some saltrice, kwama eggs, or a steam-powered death machine.

Thanks! I'll look forward to inviting you over for a cup of sujamma once I'm settled in. Updating OP with proper info.

The Brothers of Brass are rather sensitive to such beverages, but they wouldn't say no to some chilled rat grease.

Design sounds good, might I suggest finding a water fountain you can stick out front? I don't think other plots have such things, so it would be a nice addition to Mod Town as well as to your plot, I think.

[princess stomper]

Holy rusted metal, Batman! That's a splendid idea!

I'll just stop adding gratuitous towers and add some of that watery stuff.

[Autoclock]

Nothing wrong with gratuitous towers, but then again, I suppose you only have so much room.

Hey, welcome to the project Princess Stomper, glad to have you on board!

Design sounds like a great idea, I personally love cozy and comfortable buildings, though I imagine the looming shadow of AutoTower with its decidedly more menacing look might be an odd contrast

[Autoclock]

Contrast is good, especially in a project like this. It shows that we all have our own sensibilities, and have no compunctions about exploring them. I like that.

Welcome, princess stomper! Given what we've experienced with your other house projects, I am excited to see what you come up with!

I upgraded my PC recently to play Fallout 4, and now I can't seem to take screenshots. (I think it's an MGE thing, I'm sure someone on the official forums can help me).

Anyway, that's why there's some rather shoddy looking editor screenshots just to prove I've made some progress, though I think I'm going to rework some bits so I can't be definite on exactly how far I am along.

[Istreddify]

Are you talking about making screenshots via MGE itself or the game? MGE disables the vanilla screenshot functionality - you need to set up a macro in the gui to work around that (go to the input tab, select "Launch Macro Editor", pick a key and assign "Function" and "Take screenshot to it"; you may use th printscreen key for that, but - while working - it will show you the error message).

It's looking really nice and cozy so far, Princess Stomper!

It's looking really nice and cozy so far, Princess Stomper!

Thanks, all!

I used Fraps to take some more screenshots

I've made some progress since and my contribution is almost finished - we're down to the last few bugfixes.

[Turelek]

That is spectacular! 

[Darkelfguy]

Looks absolutely fantastic, Princess Stomper!
