✧˖°・ Overview ・°˖✧
In June 2024 I started my first ever Starfield mod, the Mercury Tower Penthouse - Furnished. Since then, I have learned a lot about the Creation Kit, how to do mods and consistently improved on my works and features I add into these homes for everyone to enjoy.
I took all I learned and went back to the very beginning, to give this penthouse yet another furnished version, with a new design and many more features than the original had!
At this point I also want to say a big THANK YOU to this amazing community of creators, mod enjoyers and Bethesda. It has been an incredible year since I started modding Starfield and has been something I never imagined, only possibly because of every one of you!
✧˖°・ Obtaining the Penthouse ・°˖✧
The penthouse gets unlocked once you finish the UC Vanguard questline! To start it, simply head to John Tuala in the MAST lobby.

Instructions
If you are on an existing save, please head to Venus and wait there for 24 hours. This will ensure that all objects are in their correct place and work as expected.
I recommend using a Mod Manager like MO2 or Vortex.
If you install manually:
- Download and unpack the file
- Place DWN_MercuryTowerPenthouseRedone - Main and DWN_MercuryTowerPenthouseRedone.esm into your Starfield/Data folder
- Start the game, head to the Creations menu and activate the mod under Load Order
