Name: Trails of Cyrodiil Patch Collection
Version: 1.0
Date: 10/10/2014
Author: mhahn123


Description
===========

A series of patch files to repair conflicts between Trails of Cyrodiil
and Unique Landscapes mods. The patches contained herein will address
all conflicts that were not covered by Chaky & vorians' patches.


Details
=======

This project started as a request on the UL Patch Thread to fix conflicts
between Trails of Cyrodiil and Unique Landscapes-The Eastern Peaks. However,
as is often the case, there was quite a bit more behind the curtain than
just a single conflict.

While researching the initial request, it turned out Eastern Peaks conflicted
with both the East and Southeast trails. I also found two recently added trail
plugins had unpatched UL conflicts. The Colovian Highlands route conflicts
with both Brena River Ravine and Cloudtop Mountains. The Northern Shortcut
route has a very minor conflict with Snowdale.

And there is yet another recent addition, Trails of Cyrodiil Merged, which
provides a single merged plugin containing all of the previously separate
trails files. In fact there are two versions of this in the same package.
Some patches needed to be created for both of these, and the previously
existing patches needed revising so they would work with both as well.

A word of caution when using two of the trails plugins. "Trails of Cyrodiil
Colovian Highlands UL" and "Trails of Cyrodiil Merged UL Colovian Highlands"
both have Unique Landscapes Colovian Highlands fully merged into them. When
using either of these plugins you DO NOT NEED "xulColovianHighlands.esp"
activated. You only need the meshes and textures from UL Colovian Highlands
installed.


What's Included?
================

A barrel full of patch files! 30 of them to be precise. Every known conflict
between Trails of Cyrodiil and Unique Landscapes has now been addressed.

You will find 3 main download options. Each corresponds to a specific version
of Trails of Cyrodiil. Read-me files are included with each download option
that will explain what each patch does and how to set load order.


Trails of Cyrodiil Standard
---------------------------

Patches for the original individual trail files. This folder contains patches
for the two newer trails plugins, and for Eastern Peaks, all of which were
released well after the original patches were created by Chaky & Vorians.
Note that Trails of Cyrodiil Colovian Highlands has two separate versions.
One for a vanilla game, and one with UL Colovian Highlands built in. Be sure
to ONLY use the patch which matches the trail version you have installed.
Patches Included:


1. Trail East-Eastern Peaks
2. Trail SouthEast-Eastern Peaks
3. Trail East+Southeast-Eastern Peaks
4. Trails of Cyrodiil Northern Shortcut-Snowdale
5. Trails of Cyrodiil Colovian Highland Vanilla-Brena River
6. Trails of Cyrodiil Colovian Highland UL-Brena River
7. Trails of Cyrodiil Colovian Highland Vanilla-Cloudtop Mountains
8. Trails of Cyrodiil Colovian Highland UL-Cloudtop Mountains


Trails of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla
----------------------------------

Patches for the Vanilla version of Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged. This is the
version to use if you DO NOT have UL Colovian Highlands installed. These
were not simple "update the master" conversions. Each has been tweaked and
fixed in some way to work properly. Please note there is no patch for Skingrad
Outskirts. This is because Chaky's original patch has no master dependancy and
needed no fixing. Chaky's Skingrad Outskirts patch can be used with either
version of Trails of Cyrodiil Merged and has been included in the Master Patch
for both versions.


1. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Bravil Barrowfields
2. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Brena River Ravine
3. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Cheydinhal Falls
4. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Chorrol Hinterlands
5. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Cloudtop Mountains
6. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Eastern Peaks
7. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Fallenleaf Everglade
8. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Panther River
9. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-River Ethe
10. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-Snowdale
11. Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged Vanilla-UL Master


Trails of Cyrodiil Merged Colovian Highlands
--------------------------------------------

Patches for the Colovian Highlands version of Trails Of Cyrodiil Merged. This
is the version to use if you DO HAVE UL Colovian Highlands installed. Contains
all of the same patches listed above, but re-mastered to work with the Colovian
Highlands version of TOC. Again no patch for Skingrad Outskirts for the same
reason mentioned above. And to reiterate, if you use this version you DO NOT
need the .esp from Unique Landscapes Colovian Highlands, only the resources.
