No updates for the past 6 years. I think the admins can go ahead and mark this as a dead mod.

I was able to get the wall build but ever time I talk to my steward after that the only dialog option is "never mind"

Look man, I absolutely love this mod, I really do. If you are working on anymore updates, may I recommend some more building options for people, I'm getting responses about the architecture, so may I ask for building options such as Riften like, Basic Nordic, Whiterun, Markarth, etc. for building, also I'm seeing reports about CTD issues on the manor grounds and the bridge to Solitude, just add and fix those things and your brilliant mod will improve :)

i love the mod but i feel like its too castle based, the walls are a bit much i feel cramp. i love the bridge going to solitude. i think the walls should be simpler. that is all thanks for all the hard work

Two thumbs up! I give an edge more to this mod than Fort Winstad! Think how Awesome this would be in the other two BYO home holds!

Any chance of getting the guards to wear a steel helmet? This mod is fantastic! Looks like everything i ever wanted as far as upgrades go for Hearthfire. I was gonna make a new character anyway, since i just found out about Skyrim mods.

i found it to be too much, i would prefer a simpler version

what if your house doesnt want to appear when you build it without the mod?

oops, sorry. not north east. north west is correct.
and recommend don't build a wall of windstad manor. will overlap structure in each mod.

@ Mo . .
Yes you can use it together. but each mod has overlapped part of terrain. You must load windstad mine before load this mod. Because it will be overlapping wall for manor with house of windstad mine on the north east. It's my experience.
Sorry if you can't understand my english, due i'm people of non-english region. :-)

* OwnHoliday-HearthFire-WindstandMoanr_Fortify.esp

can i use it with windstad mine together ?

A quick question... I subscribed to this mod earlier and it caused CTD upon entering the grounds... And my question is: is this mod still being worked on, or is it an abandoned project?

I'll give you an E for effort, but if i'm being perfectly honest, it looks like alot of random assets that dont belong together slapped on the ground around the manor...

Where is the steward for your house I haven't unlocked him

love this mod, thank you

The stunning fashion. Especially liked the bridge to Solitude. Only here the satellite for some reason it can not go. Have to wait until they catch up.

good mod just needs better intergration into the world

umm Can anyone else not see the rediculously small pictures on this page? From what I can see it replaces your house with a circle... I don't think that's right

so i cant even build my walls or anything none of the build options show up in the dialogue. anyone having this problem or know how to fix it?

This mod is unfinished and the modder seems to have abandoned it. Good mod in its current condition though. *BEWARE* Do NOT upgrade the walls if you use the Windstad Mine mod.

love this mod, but can u please make something simular for the other 2 homesteads

i REALLY ENJOY THIS MOD... A QUESTION I WOULD LIKE TO ASK ...HOW CAN I CHANGE THE FLAGS ON FORT TO DRAGONBORN FLAGS?

no, is not compatible with http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=310666674&searchtext=mine

yes it is possible to load this 2 mods at the same thime, it dosnt crash, but the outer-wall will cut troug the building :/

i hav already installed the "windstad-mine" mode. :)

Is it compatible?

I can't buy sawn logs for some reason... think this might have to do with your mod?

where do you find it?

How do i change the flags in the mod ? I have fully upgraded the castle with every single option and i want to change the flags

Good mod on one play throw. But. On the second run I had a cpu crash. I tryed to optimize texture and make another run at this mod. It still crashed. Ive checked load order, then ran Tres5edit to check on any errors.. Im going to remove this mod for the time being, I do like the mod. And many thanks for your work.

been away for a year and this was the first thing I looked for when I booted Skyrim up again. love it. thank you

I had a glitch (before I downloaded this mod) with Windstad Manor. I was kinda hoping the mod would straighten out the bug, it's happened before, but no, I still can't build the house.

I had the mine, took everything I wanted out: lots of ore & some money. We could always put the mine back, but I find it feels like too much of a cheat now that I'm done building it. (How much ingots does one person need?) It was great putting it together, but me, I liked it before it ran itself.

will this mod affect the winstead mine mod

I have found that the mine is not cracked up as we all might want it to be. I wouldn't care if it was ever compatible with this mod. It is enough that Kermit has being doing as much as he has. Yes; I agree that it would be nice if he had already finished this project that we all want to enjoy. But why not enjoy what we have until he does have the time to finsih what he wants to do in the time and perfection he needs to do it in? Thank you all for taking the time to read this.

very nice hope it is compatable with the mine ,i love the mine

compatible with the mine mod?

can not find the book I own the Lake Mansion, please need help

it wont work cant get the option to show up please help

The house for Jane Smith, anything there to mes with?

Are you ever going to finnish this great mod and are you still working on this mod.

Guys, how glitchy IS this mod? I don't mind a few tiny things but is this mod worth it or no? There's nothing like it for Windstad manor and I want it so

It's a pity the author has disappeared from this mod because it is good and could indeed be great if the bugs were fixed and it was worked in with winstad mine mod.

Oh, my god... I think this is what I was looking for just now! XD I love this idea! Just one thing though, I'd love to see full support of equipping the NPCs, particularly the guards. Nothing like being defended by guards wielding Daedric artifacts right? XD Also, 'Spellsword' guards might be interesting as well as an option.

So my gaurd house sunk bellow the ground any idea why? im kind of thinking it was due to the mine mod that alters the area just next to this one but im woundering if anyone else has seen this happen?

Addendum ... it's actually the east wall that has a gap between the ground and the wall ... by some blue boulders ... it would also be nice that the walls just don't magically appear .., that it takes time to build them ... not a show stopper ...

I have noticed four flaws in this mod. There is a high tower activation lever that appears, before you build anything. It is hovering in space about 10 feet off the ground. Second the north wall, I think north, does not reach all the way to the ground, there is a gap. Third there are some square blocks that fall off the north wall and one actually blocked the road over the drawbridge, not totally but still. I also found that only the housecarl for Windstad can be the steward, I tried t get Marcurrio to take the job, he asked I said ok but he then stayed my follower. If I dismiss him he walks home!?! All in all it's a cool mod ... but some things need to be fixed. Oh and the bridge to Solitude should be replace with a boat. An the prices are low ... the whole build cost about 50k ... it should cost 500k!!! It is a BIG castle!!

Yes it does work with the mine, but it should be modified a bit to make it look better. Hopefully this is in the updates?

does this work with the windstad mine mod?

Nightwolf; the farm does not work, the people do not come there, the flags can't be changed, and the walls are not complete. Why?? Because he has not taken the time to complete this mod as yet. Maybe he is on Vacation, or there is too much real work he has to do, or maybe he is studing in school or maybe a wife/girl-friend will not let him be the man he is supposed to be and let him play the game or create in the Creation Kit? Could be a lot of reasons. We may never find out what his reasons are in our life-time?

wow another "too good to be true" mod... This sounds epic if you plan on completing it

NightWolf; The farm isn't working because he hasn't completed most of what he started. There is much to this mod that needs finishing. He wont even give an update because he doesn't know when he will do anything any more. Sorry; Kermit. It's been ages since you do anything to this mod to update or finish. It would be nice if you did. Thanks.
