***************************************************************** The Elder Scrolls III MORROWIND: Stinkers and Bathers v1.71 by grVulture ***************************************************************** Index: 1. Installation 2. Playing the Plugin 3. In Depth / Scent Soaps List 3. Save Games 4. Other Info ***************************************************************** 1. INSTALLING THE PLUGIN ***************************************************************** To install the plugin, unzip the stinkers.7z file into the Morrowind directory. If you have an older version, be sure to overwrite files! ***************************************************************** 2. PLAYING THE PLUGIN ***************************************************************** From the Morrowind Launcher, select Data Files and check the box next to the Stinkers.esp file. PROVINCIAL BATH SHOP COMPATIBILLITY: ------------------------------------ In case you use the Provincial Bath Shoppe v.1 by Korana, be sure to check *ALSO* Provincial_Bath_Shoppe_for_Stinkers.esp *INSTEAD* of the Provincial_Bath_Shoppe_v1.esp. You will still need to download Provincial Bath Shoppe v.1 by Korana to have the Provincial_Bath_Shoppe_for_Stinkers.esp work properly. ASCADIAN ROSE COTTAGE COMPATIBILLITY: ------------------------------------- Load Rose_Cottage_Bathing_Patch.esp AFTER the Bathing mod (Stinkers.esp) AND the Ascadian Rose Cottage mod, to have the benefits of the bathing mod when you bathe in the Ascadian Rose Cottage bath tub. In the bath room of the cottage you will find one bath robe and one soap chest, where you can put your soaps in. More soaps can be bought from the caretaker lady. GARDENERS OF MORROWIND COMPATIBILLITY: -------------------------------------- Use the Gardeners of Morrowind.esp provided with the Bathing Mod INSTEAD of the original one. You will still need to download the full version of the Gardeners of Morrowind plugin to have tree textures and meshes installed and work properly. BALMORA EXPANSION BATH COMPATIBILLITY: -------------------------------------- Now you can bathe in Balmora Expansion's Bath House! Use the BE_Bathing_Patch.esp AFTER the Balmora Expansion mod, and this AFTER the Bathing mod (Stinkers.esp), to have a functional bath tub and a functional cold shower in the Balmora Expansion Bath House. Soaps are to be bought by Fylberding, the caretaker. Even the Sauna Room is now functional!!! The longer you stay in the sauna, the more you regenerate! It will take about 1 game-hour to regenerate about 25 points of your Health, Magicka, and Fatigue! Now the bath house is worth a visit! NOTE: This patch should work without problems also with the Balmora Bathhouse mod only... ****************************************************************** WHAT ARE YOU GONNA BE? A STINKER OR A BATHER? Now you must wash yourself every now and then or you will suffer personality penalties. If you neglect your personal hygiene you will come to a point where you will be disgusted by the whole population of Vvardenfell! Even diseases will fall upon you!! There are two ways to clean yourself: 1. Go to a public bath. There are public baths in all major cities. 2. Wash in a river, lake, or in the sea. While washing yourself in natural water will get you somewhat clean, it is not by far the treatment you'll get from a bath house. In the bath house you'll get hot water, scented soaps that grant magical bonuses, and a trully hygienic bath. Washing in natural water will get you partially cleaned, as it is not the same as having a bath. Going to a public bath will get you totally clean. Personality penalties by not going to a public bath start after the third day since the last day of bathing. I made this because although we do have to wash ourselves on a regular basis, we -as Morrowind characters- can't go every day in the public baths. After all, we are adventurers with no time to frequent every day in the cities! NPC Reactions to your "Dirty" Level vary according to your clothing, personality, and reputation. After all, you cannot address someone as being a beggar when he is in extravagant clothing or armor, neither can you not show some level of respect to a hero well-known all over Morrowind. As a result, low-level characters will have to take care more often to their hygiene than high-end heroes. All in all, there are more than 100 dialogue responses to reflect all the above. ENJOY! To get soap needed for bathing outdoors go to Arrile in Seyda Neen or to Clagius Clanler, Outfitter in Balmora. If you are too lazy to make the trip, open the console and type player -> addItem cs_soap 1 To wash yourself outdoors: Get in the water and equip the soap. You can not bathe in sewers. NEW IN v1.3: You cannot clean yourself by taking a mud bath! The mud bath will boost you in health-related areas, but will actually make you MORE dirty than you were before, so you have to wash after mudbathing! No need for soap to get into mudbath, just click and enter. ***************************************************************** 3. In Depth / Scent Soaps List ***************************************************************** 1. If you eat the scented soaps, you'll get sick (poison) which is like in real life, actually. 2. The scented soap effect lasts for one day ONLY! Which also is like real life 24h deodorants! 3. If you use one scented soap in a particular day, using another soap will wash away the parfume of the former soap (and magical effects) and will give you the new scented soap's effects. This is also based on real life, since when you wash, you are "parfumed" with the soap you use, and everything else is washed away. 4. All soaps have "good" effects on you. In the end, when we bathe don't we all feel better than before??? Here is the list of the scented soaps: - Tigers Tail (fortify agility 5pts, jump 5pts) - Star Ice (fortify willpower 5pts, fortify maximum magicka 5pts) - Moonflower (reflect 10pts) - Sea Breeze (swift swim 10pts) - Divine (Light 10pts) - Ocean Deep (water breathing) - Midnight Musk (sanctuary 5pts, night eye 5pts) - Resolve (fortify endurance 5pts, resist paralysis 10pts) 5. Various baths can give you extra magical effects, especially the Telvanni ones! Touch their magical crystals! 6. Why people WILL talk to me with a 42 pt personality hit and not with a prior 10? - OK, that's a tricky one... The logic is that if you don't bathe at all, you will get no responses, because of your disgusting "body odor". Lack of bathing in a public bath, is not essential, as you can still wash away your stink "in the wild", but it will drop your personality rating -to extreme if no bath for more than 10 days- , since people, will notice that eh... somehow... They will speak with you since you do not stink, but they notice that you have not bathed properly. Personality drops to reflect this. Well, just roleplay lol ***************************************************************** 4. Save Games ***************************************************************** If you've been playing an older version of this plugin, cleaning your old save games is needed. Instructions follow: Clean your save games, in order to have no duplicating objects in Balmora, Suran, and Sadrith Mora bath houses. To do this, load your save game without the bathing mod loaded, go to an interior cell, save, exit the game, restart with the bathing mod loaded, load your new saved game. Again, this is only needed if you've saved your game with an older Bathing Mod version. If you save your game while this plugin is loaded, you may encounter error messages when you reload the saved game without the plugin. Ignore them, as you will be able to continue on with the original game. NOTE: you can find more information about cleaning your save games here http://www.forumplanet.com/planetelderscrolls/topic.asp?fid=3370&tid=1258952&p=1#13436054 This is by no means needed for this mod, but will give you a general idea on how to prevent/clean dirty save games. ***************************************************************** 5. Other Info / Credits ***************************************************************** This is based and built upon Evilgreebo's and Sisco's work. If you find a bug or have anything to say e-mail me at grvulture@yahoo.com If you find it very annoying having to bath in public baths all the time, you can activate/deactivate the public bath scripts by going to the Seyda Neen bath house and clicking on the appropriate statuette. You can also activate/deactivate the warning messages there. Credits go to: Evilgreebo for the Bath Mod Sisco for the New Bathing Mod ***************************************************************** 6.
