Don't know if you or anyone else is still running into this, but I couldn't get it to work without freezing or ctd'ing either on the current version. Using the version under "old files" seemed to fix it on my end. Hope that helps!
Using v2, I just spent several minutes running around the forest (quite possibly the first time I have ever visited this UL in-game) without any crashes, so I'd say there's something else in your game setups which is causing your crashes.
I recommend EVERYONE to use every Unique Landscapes to date, this is legitimately the best collection of Oblivion mods ever! In "The Forsaken Lorich Village" (which is located in a place where I have never been before in any of my playthroughs, so I got very surprised to know that the whole thing was a MOD, when I thought it was completely vanilla), I slept in the bed, and a VERY CREEPY video cutscene played. It pointed to a haunted well, which I went to inspect when I woke up. So, there was a blue cloud surrounding it, and I got shivers down my spine when I heard scary screams coming from the depths of it. I can't enter the well though, it says I need a key. Well, I can't find it anywhere!!! My question is: where is this key? xD EDIT: I tried opening it with console commands, but no luck! I can't get the correct ID of the thing, and it doesn't work... I am so curious to know if I can actually enter now.
Sorry for necro:ing this post. But I just got this idea: Do I have your permission to use assets from this mod to make a connecting cell for the well? More like an addon to this mod, if you like.
You can create and release an addon where your new ESP is dependant on this mod's ESP and/or its resource files. Your ESP should not contain anything from within the UL ESP except where required for referencing purposes.
Definitely my favourite UL. I'm so glad i installed the compilation long ago without reading (spoiling myself) the details. Dark Forest is something beyond a geographical morphing since it feels to me perfect while also it fits to the game so organically good: the atmosphere, the colours, the level design and the position. Making also a particular Daedric Quest something unique and definitely more original than Vanilla. First time i discovered this place was during night time while it was raining. I saw from far away these enormous (even bigger with Enhanced Vegetation +50%) particular trees after traveling from Bravil. I decided to enter this sublime place (didnt opened the map). I really can't describe what i felt the first time but i'll do my best since i can still feels such sentiments: My lust for exploration, my fear for such unknown place, my wonder for such sublime floral beauty, my surprise to also find something definitely cute and unexpected. The diversity of the various vertical levels this mod offers. Personally i love playing Oblivion with only fixing or small mods focused mainly on aesthetic/gameplay/mechanics fixes. But this mod has become an add-on I must have; a place to get back whenever i feel like it. A place where walking instead of running. To actually observe and feels part of. Some other ULs make me feel like this, but this one has definitely won my heart over the others. If the author will ever see my post. Thank you so much. Your mod and I, are 100% compatible.
Is addiktive still active? Because I have a mod request: it would be really cool if he extended this mod up all the way to the green road and the red ring road, because it is sort of little as it is now. Maybe turn the rest into more of a twisted forrest fairytale forest with the large roots that some of the ayleid ruins have and lots of mushrooms and weird creatures, and keep the original as the scary heart of it. Because there are no parts of cyrodiil which are weird and twisted but this mod
If you get knocked off your horse when hitting a sprite and get really buggy controls, get back on the horse and it'll fix itself. Realized that a lot later than I should've
A small tweak to make this mod much more atmospheric is to stop all the bird chirping when inside the dark wood. The wood itself is extremely creepy, but the generic birdsong somewhat hinders it. Hearing nothing but silence in the wood would be much better, or hearing the occasional crow caw.
I have a problem with a video that loads when you trigger a quest in this mod. Whenever i get to a certain location(south of IC) this mod causes a video (xuldfdream1) to play whenever i access my inventory or pause the game. The real problem is the video keeps playing in an infinite look and there is nothing i can do to stop it other than ctrl alt delete. Please help.
ive just realized that if you sleep in the sleeping bag in the camp near to the forest you get some strange visions. i'll leave you to find out what they are. (cuz i dont know)
