Hi
There might be a but!! in a minute, until then.
First, thanks Micalov for the pointer towards how easy modding a shop can be. Although I will not be going that far yet. Still really want to learn more about mesh/textures and the graphic side of modding. Plus still learning new stuff about redoing esp's.
My thoughts on a "shop" (just workiong off the cuff here), are not really about your normal type Oblivion shop. I have been noticing how many types of body meshes there are ( HGEC, BAB, Roberts etc) and the ammount of armour/clothing mods which are beyond belief. I prefer myself to have to work for certain types of armour/clothing within a game, either through quests or having to dispatch the evil witch weraing the robe I so desire. I also recognise that a lot of players might just want to be able to buy something. Also see the need for modders to have somewhere to place the item they have designed.
The "shop" I was thinking of is more of a Modders Paradise, it could be anywhere (inside a mountain, just outside Tromar), it could have its own teleport pad. Most importantly, within the shop are a series of merchants. Some sell HGEC, some Bab etc, etc. So modders instead of placing clothes iggledy-piggledy could know exactly where to place them and gamers know where to go.
Just an idea and no buts!!!!! (wow, I did a paragraph without a but.)
