Description
===========
Adds 20 CM Partner NPCs to several inns in cities and settlements. For the sake of compatibility, all NPCs are from vanilla races.


Details
=======
This adds 20 CM Partner NPCs. Several of them were already made for my personal use, while others are newer ones who are bearing copied faces of my face making test characters(Though I had to tweak them to look right in-game).

NPCs you can recruit are like:
= Josiah Melville - Imperial Knight
= Kylia Melville - Imperial Knight
= Theresia Melville - Imperial Priestess
= Haniel - Breton Assassin
= Sigrun - Nord Spellsword (Her save file is already available here)
= Wendillien - Bosmer Scout
= Henriette Renault - Breton Knight (She's actually duplicated and tweaked Captain Renault)
= Alameda - Imperial Bard
= Frideborg - Nord Monk
= Meliel - Bosmer Agent
= Naredra - Dunmer Sorceress
= Ozanne - Breton Crusader
= Irmgard - Nord Witchhunter
= Diella - Imperial Mage
= Keita - Breton Battlemage
= Eslinncath - Dunmer Nightblade
= Anvawen - Bosmer Archer
= Aranya - Bosmer Rogue
= Eruelde - Dunmer Conjurer
= Maureen - Redguard Warrior

These NPCs can be found in:
- Tiber Septim Hotel, IC
- Newlands Lodge, Cheydinhal
- Jeral View Inn, Bruma
- The Oak and Croiser, Chorrol
- The Flowing Bowl, Anvil
- Two Sisters' Lodge, Skingrad
- Three Sisters' Inn, Leyawiin
- The Sleeping Mare, Pell's Gate
- Gottshaw Inn
- Inn of Ill Omen


Install
=======
1. Extract the files to (install folder)\Oblivion\Data\
2. If you don't have required cosmetic mod:
1) Use Wrye Bash to EMSify your cosmetic mod plugin.(Right click->ESMify Self..)
2) Open LF-CMPartners.esp with Construction Set(also do not forget to check ESMified cosmetic mod as well). Ignore all warnings.
3) Give every CM Partner NPCs hairs/eyes you want.
4) Save modified plugin.
5) ESPify your cosmetic mod plugin.


Uninstall
=========
1. For safety, fire all your companions first. Before firing them, take everything you gave from their inventory.
2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s).


Incompatibility & Issues
========================
1. This adds NPCs in interior cells, so may have incompatibility with any mod that edits same interior cells.
2. If your cosmetic mod changes racial facegen setting, the partner NPC faces may not look right.


History
=======
07/06/2009 - Initial Release. No fixes/updates are planned.
