So the time has come to close up shop. I have migrated all of the files from this page over to their new home. This page will stay up since I don't have control to do otherwise. I just won't be adding anything more to it. The files here have been archived and comment thread locked. 

The current files (and all future updates) can be found Here.






Settlements Of Cyrodiil-Regional Farms and Inns



Did it ever bother you that no matter where you go in Cyrodiil all the farm houses look exactly the
same? All built with the same type of stone and wood, all the same color and same design. Same 
problem with all the lower class slum homes and all the Inns.

While inside the city walls we find architecture that is unique to each individual region. Each city
has it's own unique wood, stone, glass windows, even color theme. This mod was my attempt to
implement some diversity in architecture for the poor working class slobs in the game.


Details
========

Regional Farms and Inns replaces many of the bland vanilla Farmhouses and Inn buildings with
re-textured versions that use regional materials. No new towns or locations have been added with
this plugin, it strictly addresses vanilla locations. Re-textures were done with vanilla textures,
some textures were tweaked slightly to get the desired look, but everything started life as standard
game issue.

Now a Farmhouse or Inn near Cheydinhal will be built with glass, stone, and wood native to that
region. I have also done stables, sheepfolds, and wells where they already existed. Wells have had a
water plane added to them for a little touch of realism. You may also there are now doors, shutters,
and thatchroofs that (hopefully) fit the look for each area of the land.

Chorrol thatchroofs are a dull bluish grey, Cheydinhal is a rich medium yellow, Skingrad a darker
brown, Bravil and Leyawiin a faded greenish grey, while anything near the IC retains the vanilla
colors. The Grey Mare, Inn of Ill Omen, and Roxey Inn have been given unique looks that I thought
fit their names, and/or locations. I was very careful to replace doors using the proper method so all
vanilla quests should still work just as they were intended to. I have tested them and encountered no
problems.

All new structures already have visible when distant meshes. These are already included as part of the
Resource Pack you are required to download. All you need to do is run a program such as Tes4LODGen
to make the new architecture appear in the distance in your game.
