A trio of patch files which repair conflicts between Topal Island,
Settlements of Cyrodiil-Legion Outposts, and Better Cities.

Topal Island adds a small island, lighthouse, and player home in Topal
Bay South of Leyawiin. Unfortunately it conflicts directly with Better
Cities which adds nearly the same thing in nearly the same location.
Using either of those with SOC Legion Outposts creates additional
problems.


Details
========

There are three patch files included which cover various combinations of
the mods mentioned above. Fixes include sewing up landscape rips at cell
borders, repainting landscape textures, adjusting path grids, adjusting
numerous buried or floating objects.

The Topal Island mod itself had a few flaws such as the lighthouse being
left floating above ground level with no base to speak of. This left a huge
gap all the way around the lighthouse. I've filled it in with large rocks
so everything looks normal.

I'm sure someone will point out that there is a pre-existing patch for Topal
Island and Better Cities. I did look at it before making my own. Lametrie's
patch unfortunately ONLY fixes the landscaping rips. It left the boats and
docks from Better Cities buried under a house, did not restore the path
grids for the Better cities lighthouse, and did not fix the huge gaps on
the Topal Island lighthouse. Additionally that patch requires a load order
which is not consistent with established BOSS load orders for these mods.


Location
========

Primary areas are centered around game cell 23,-40 South of Leyawiin
