Graargh! Stupid Physics, The woes of decorating your home... Options

[Thomas Kaira]

So I spent the last 20 minutes setting my dinner table, it looks nice, ready for use. I then try to sit down...

CLING! CLANG! SMASH! CRUNCH!

That sound you heard was my silverware being converted into bullets, knocking half my decor into the corners and under my bed, and finally glitching through the walls and disappearing. Why do I even bother? Why does every effort I make to have my home look pretty have to be ruined when I brush my little finger across that knife handle? Do I have to TCL every time I want to sit down at my table to have a bite to eat in an immersive manner?

Sometimes, I really wish Morrowind's physics-less decoration could come back....

Aye, the downside of Havoc physics

I always make sure to save often in my game, but even more so when I decorate a house. Especially if it involves books on shelves. Whenever a book is up correctly I make a save and before the next is positioned correctly I could have made as much as five other saves because the book gives me a lot of trouble along the way but suddenly goes halfway where I want it to be.

Literally hours can be spend on this!

There is a mod for Oblivion that makes shelves/books, etc a snap to fill/set up - I'll see if I can scan my external hard drive for it and send you a copy, I don't believe it is on Nexus anymore.
