High-Hammer Castle

Description
-----Current Version: 0.98-----Changelog below! (Please note that I am not currently updating this mod anymore - However anyone is free to improve on/edit my mod however they wish.)-----
-----Some images are out of date, for example, the display room has more mannequins now-----
Embark on a quest to find the mysterious 'High-Hammer Castle'!
This castle is aimed towards higher level players. You should be at -least- level 20 before starting the hunt!


-----What's so special about High Hammer?-----
The areas of High-Hammer Castle:
Entrance
Alchemy station and indoor garden.
Enchanting station, and some soul gems.
Temple to pray to your favourite god (Talos included!)
Kitchen equipped with a large open spit.
Living room/Dining room with gold leaf plates, utensils, and cups.
Balcony with a fantastic view!
Master Bedroom with many rare books! (Currently removed the books, improving bookshelves)
Storage room with enough chests for all your items!
Display area, so you can show off how awesome you are.
Training room/guest bedroom to get some training in.
And a super-secret room!


High-Hammer Castle includes a...
Arcane enchanter
Alchemy table
High-Hammer Forge (Same awesome-ness as the Skyforge!)
Smelter
Tanning Rack
Grindstone
Workbench
Wood Chopping block
Altars to all nine gods
Dragon priest mask holders.
A Cooking pot
2 Normal Bookcases and 6 Extra-Large Bookcases with double the space! (Currently only normal bookcases, the larger ones will hopefully be in the next release after 0.98)
8 Display Cases to show off your stuff!
7 Weapon Plaques, and 8 Shield plaques with places for two weapons on either side!
20 Mannequins for all your outfits!
22 Weapon Racks for even more showing off!
A whopping 44 containers for all your Valuable (and not-so-valuable) goods!
A super-secret tunnel leading out to the College of Winterhold, Jorrvaskr, The Ragged Flagon and the five original houses! (Provided you have the keys for them!)
Aaaand enough food to feed a small country...


-----Starting the search-----
Now unlike most player home mods, you don't simply get this one handed to you. You have to work for it!
In each of the original player houses is the first riddle. It will lead you to another location on your map and the next clue will be there.
The riddles are hard and you will need a well-explored map (or a completed map from the internet: http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111127145803/elderscrolls/images/8/88/Skyrimmap.png) in order to figure out the clues!
With the final riddle is a key, that key is needed to unlock the castle, so don't bother trying to skip them! (I may make a version without the riddles if demand for it is high.)


-----Changelog-----
0.98 Added the dragon priest mask holder-things to the balcony/roof level, seemed a bit empty. More/larger bookcases on the way!
0.95b3 Fixed the secret room.
0.95b2 Fixed more errors mode in 0.95.
0.95b Fixed errors made in 0.95, regular bookshelves back while I fix the larger ones.
0.95 Added 9 Mannequins, including one at the smithy. Changed/Upgraded 6 of the bookcases to hold twice as much as normal, added description of where the castle is to the final riddle.
0.9 Added Doors leading to each house, Jorrvaskr, The Ragged Flagon and the College of Winterhold in the secret room, which is now accessed through the Master bedroom's 'Wardrobe'. Optimized the interior, and fixed some z-fighting (textures flickering over each-other)
0.8 Intital Release

-----Known bugs-----
Had some complaints about a bug involving the area West of Whiterun, some kind of floating castle/missing land. I have not been able to reproduce this bug. Possibly a mod conflict.

-----Other Stuff-----
If you have any serious bugs with HHC, such as crash-to-desktop's or similar, try disabling any other mods you have active and see if that fixes it.
If any of you are having problems with the dragon flying off at roughly half-health, try running to the more open, flatter valley near the castle, this will give the dragon room to crash-land.

If you encounter any bugs/have any ideas please comment below or email me at: AgentX506@yahoo.co.nz

Hey everyone, Although I'm no longer updating this mod, I thought I ought to try and fix this bug with the 'floating castle' West of Whiterun (The CTD's will probably go away as well, if this bug is fixed).
If anyone can post the exact (or at least more specific) location, a screenshot (with no other mods active) and any additional information, I may be able to do something, however, so far I have not been able to reproduce this bug.
Thanks.
