Loading Screen object rotation

[rootsrat]

I never knew this, so if this is a common knowledge, please excuse my ignorance :) I discovered this tonight! Just a cool little feature. Hold the left mouse button on any loading screen and you can rotate the displayed object by moving your mouse left and right, and zoom in and out by moving up and down! Pretty cool!

Oh yeah they're 3D models just like the ones in the inventory when you see the representation. There are just different ones.

I never knew that the mouse controls were turned on when in loading screens :)

I never knew that either...

I knew because I used to play Skyrim from a HDD and the loading screens used to take forever so I used to click around and found this out one day.

Oh god... here we are playing and modding this game for 2 years ... :D

I caught up on this on my first loading screen ^^

Here I thought everyone knew. :)

Guilty... did not know it either lol :)

LoL I play skyrim with a 360 controller... yes I'm a godless heathen.... so the rotation is something I have been doing since it released ;)

I just discovered this on the X-Box version last week :P

 

..assumed it could be done on the PC, but still have not tried

Of course with my SSD I blink and I miss the loading screens anyways so lmao I can't mess with the rotation any more plus it's just as well the loading screen plugins ate up esp slots.

Show off! :D

Yes, a very cool feature indeed. Which brings me to my question.

 

Recently in a mod-showcase on youtube I noticed somebody's loading screen model doing this rotation AUTOMATICALLY, similar to the "Main Menu Spinning Skyrim Emblem" by Brumbek

 

It's a pity, I can't recall that specific video. So, did anybody here maybe already got his hands on such a mod?

 

Thanks in advance,

Yeah I've know that for quite a while.  BUT I just found out 2 other things recently that I should have known:

 

--If you hold down the interact key (by default 'e' on PC) on an object, you can manipulate the object (move it, carry it) without adding it to your inventory.

--If you hold down the interact key on an NPC follower, you can tell them to do something (wait there, pick up something, etc.) without having to talk to them and go through menus.
