Uncommon Taste

[Barthanes]

I'd like to make a pack based around cooking. It would use Core of course, but would also be compatible with Immersive Survival. Any build with Frostfall and Realistic Needs will work with this as far as I've tested. Falskaar & Wyrmstooth work with this as well. It's pretty broad based compatibility wise.

 

So far the mods in the pack would be:

 

Realistic Needs & Survival https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26228/?

Cooking Expanded https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/1409/?

Herbal Tea https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/33253/?

Be a Milk Drinker https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/17836/?

Babettes Feast https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/5816/?

 

All of these would be patched to latest USKP's and include all the Realistic Needs patches. Probably will add:

 

Drinking Fountains of Skyrim: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24282/?

Drinking Fountains of Skyrim-Dragonborn https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34010/?

Collect Water From Wells https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/38507/?

 

There are a ton of patches for this that I have merged for my personal use to reduce plugin count so I'll need to get permission from authors to do so officially. (These mods play pretty well together so merging the changes in Tesedit is pretty simple, although I do have trouble with leveled lists, just don't understand how they work with Bashed Patch.)  I'm open to suggestions and feedback for additions or subtractions & certainly any help would be appreciated. The goal of the pack is to make cooking a little more immerse & useful but not totally overpowered either. And keep the plugin count as low as possible.

I'm not sure this is enough for a pack. I mean, you think people is interested in a cooking pack? (This is a legit question). If you think there's a public for this, I hope you can do it! But this would be a nice addition to the survival pack imo.

I think it would be good to have smaller packs that can be used with other packs. Make some plug and play type stuff once you get a big pack stable.

 

That was my approach with War Ensemble, but I just don't have the time to update it right now.

 

I hope to see some nice packs like this as we expand.

Yep, small Packs are fine. Especially when authors create patches specific to other Packs.

My intent is not to try and do a major overhaul pack like Explorer (which is awesome!), frankly there isn't enough good content to do so anyway. The goal of the pack is so that anyone using straight core without any immersion mods can plug it in if they want. The same pack can be used for Immersive Survival. Really it comes down to which "patch" they would need at the end. I see one for vanilla core & one for handling Realistic Needs, Frostfall, Hunterborn & a few others. If a moderator feels this might be worthwhile let me know so I can create a Pack page and get started. And if anyone has any cooking related mod, such as alcohol perhaps let me know & I'll see if it can be added easily.

Go for it then :D

Good evening,

 

Great idea indeed.

 

It should be balanced enough not to frighten people with the ingredients they need nor let others cook only one thing that is overpowerful to be used as a single dish (imo). At least make people willing to make different dishes to reinforce specific skills and so on.

 

Suitable for any hunterborn or cookerborn:).

 

Alkira.
