Thanks for the mod. I like it. I tried to make a mod like this but did not understand the time scale in skyrim.

This is my favorite food mod! Thanks!

Upload to Xbox plz

urks*

the only thing that urges me with this mod is the alcohol, why do u have to make it WORSE, i could spend minutes trying to get THIS effect off of me

this is way too OP for a food enhancer XD, i would be a level 1 or 2 with the most OP food sources i could have!

@RicinMuffins there is a mod for that, its called simple sustenance!

Do you think you could make a mod where you got to eat or your health will down? Kinda like a food management mod, or a hunger mod.

I hope this is compatible with Dawnguard DLC. I will sub and try it out.

Meh, I love the general concept and how it's been done, but I really dislike the timescale issue... You eat a honey nut treat, enter a shop, buy one item you know in advance you want to buy, leave the shop - and already you're hungry again? Yes, 40 in-game minutes have passed, but my sense of time in-game isn't about how long it takes from sunrise to sunset, but about how much I can do, and considering the weight of the foods, it's a good deal more practical to carry a couple of potions for the same (even on-demand) effect.
Why not make food have a weak, but reeeeeally long-lasting effect? :)

Sorry for the incovenience, but this is now a standard Skyrim mod again, no hearthfire (how I should have done it to begin with). For the Hearthfire addon click the link at the top of the description. Also added a Dragonborn addon for those interested.

@-'/ Lotus! Took me a while to work out what that was about. Turns out it's a fix in the Unofficial Skyrim Patch that changes apple pies to meat pies. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to fix it without breaking everything. :(

@Artik Try it now. It was somehow referencing Dawnguard which might have caused a problem if you don't have it.

I'm only running Hearthfire at the moment, been trying to decide on whether to get Dawnguard.

@Perfect Duck Oops, thanks for pointing that out. Yeah, the values are right, but the effect is wrong. Should be 90% regen rate, not 90 health! Fixed now.

@Artik Not sure what the problem could be, do you have Hearthfire or Dawnguard or both?

The horker stew item seems to have the wrong effect from intended. 90 health per second for 1440 seconds!

I did some more testing with it after I figured out how to play with the data files, and it seems that running that mod alone was also giving me issues at startup. I did try another food mod before that, the realistic needs mod, but I deleted the files for that one.

Not sure why my mod would conflict with any of those, they seem to be comletely separate. Mine only affects food item stats and nothing else.

Running this keeps killing my game when I start it up. I'm running it alongside Lush Trees, Lush Grass, and the Lilmothiit mod.

Could you make a starvation/hunger mod i would be soo happy i need it to make survival in the wild more realistic!!!!

You forgot meat pies!

Excellent, mate! I just bought Hearthfire today, and it's working for both!

Ok, seems there is no extra food in Dawnguard, just Hearthfire. I probably should have done this the other way around, but this is now the Hearthfire version, see the link near the top of the description to get to the old non-Hearthfire version.

Glad you like it!

I do have Dawnguard, but not Hearthfire. It was fine when I first installed Dawnguard, so I think the mod is conflicting with some recent update of the DLC. But again, really great mod, and I'm looking forward for your new version.

@lujin1983 Do you have Dawnguard or Hearthfire or both? I was hoping it would work with both DLC and without. If not, I'll have to upload a second mod for the DLC.

Really love this mod. But as now after the new update, this mod is making Skyrim to crash to desktop on startup. Could you please update it to be compitable to the current version. Very appreciated. Great mod, this makes me keep a lot of food in my pockets, now I hardly use any potion. So please consider this important. Cheers.

Bladder and Chamber Pots. Not sure if possible but it would make Skyrim a hell of a lot more realistic.

seems a very intelligent mod, try it!

No, it wont affect extra food items from other mods. Each food and drink item's stats have been modified individually, so extra ones will just keep their original effects.

Just wondering if this works with food/drinks that were added via mods? I guess I'll find out in a minute anyways o.O still, thought asking wouldn't hurt.

lol, I probably would make a Realistic Lemon Juice mod, because I like things to be slightly more realistic. But slightly more realistic doesn't mean completely realistic. Just because I want food to act a bit more like real food doesn't mean I actually want to be playing an exact replica of real life where I go to work and pay taxes. Just a bit more realistic.

Plus, I only added realistic to the title because there are already several other "Useful Food" mods out there, and I couldn't think of what else to call it. The "Realistic" part refers to the times that food and drink is beneficial before you need to consume more.

I think the day/night cycle and the scenery are pretty realistic. I mean, the sun goes down and comes up, it doesn't go in a spiral or zig-zag, and all the trees are pointing upwards and not growing out of peoples faces and things. Point is, you have to draw a line for acceptable unreality somewhere, and mine is just above how the food was originally.

I actually don't have a problem with the mod. I like it. Food in Skyrim is so useless. This mod needs a new name. How *realistic* is it that eating a raw goat leg makes you regenerate health? Or eating fondue makes you regenerate magicka? Not very. A good mod, sure. A useful food mod, yes. A realistic food mod, no so much.

It would be cool if you could implement a cooking skill and when you make your own food there's a chance of undercooking and overcooking and wasting ingredients and as your skill rises you are more likely to cook it just right and less likely to waste any ingredients.

They didn't include a realistic day/night cycle. They included a Nirn day/night cycle. They didn't include realistic scenery. They included Skyrim scenery. If they did make a game about a plastic hotel foyer on the surface of a giant lemon that keeps switching which is the inside and which is the outside you'd probably still talk about how "realistic" the physics and graphics are. And make your own Realistic Lemon Juice mod.

:( I liked what you tried to do but Grrr.. I think you should go back to how it was, except make food heal 5x the rate instead of the 10x you had it at. Thats just my opinion though

New version up. Constructive criticism welcome.

very nice :D

:D

I've been neglecting Skyrim of late, but if I find time I'll review this to see how I could improve it. I'm thinking it might be best if raw food also just gives health regen (at a lesser rate), so you're not tempted to eat a whole mountain of cheese. :)

npuc85 is just trolling :D
your mod is fine !!

it is after all REALISTIC :D .. on a fiction way ..so let him troll :D

*n plz change die HP of cheese n other no cooked stuff" *plz* :D
its so hard for me not to use a ton of cheese in a middle of a fight :D

@npuc85 If Bethesda was making such an unrealistic game, why did they include a realistic day/night cycle, realistic scenery, realistic consistent gravity? In fact, why isn't Skyrim about riding a plastic hotel foyer around the surface of a giant lemon that keeps switching which is the inside and which is the outside?

What's with "realistic" mods in a game that has magic, elves, orcs, dwarves, dragons, werewolves, zombies, and vampires? If you want to make a realistic mod, I suggest you start by removing all of those things.

lower the health from some stuff .. i think 100+ hp for some giant chees n stuff is to much ...
the effects of cooked stuff r perfect thx for that ! : D

Dude great mod but i thnk you should try and make a list of all the compatble survile mods that make eatting food a reqirement in the game. That way if anyone trys this mod with a survivle mod they won't pin the blame on this mod and unsubscribe this mod.

great, finally someone who thinks grub is good! subed =)

Excellent, mod, May I suggest a detrimental effect for failure to eat? I don't like the idea of being able to run around for 2 years straingt (in-game time) without consuming anything

it has cheese, it gets downloaded.

Good mod, this gives me more incentive to cook now.

Thanks. :) Wow, 104 mods, I only have 5!

this mod works great , thanks for added it to the world of Sktrim....yr mod makes me enjoy the game even more ....great work !!!
