==============
| I. Summary |
==============
A collaboration between myself and IcePenguin, the creator of A Quality World Map - With Roads,
to offer users the option of having the Hold's borders while keeping the details of his map.
We worked hard to find (what we believe is) the best way to display the Hold borders in every
environment, be it over the grassy plains of Whiterun, the snow of Winterhold, or even at
night.

=======================
| II. Version History |
=======================
8.1: Added a missing line in The Rift. Fixed alignment of lines in The Rift.
8.0: Updated for IcePenguin's v8.0.
7.0: Updated for IcePenguin's v7.0.
6.2: "Classic" version released. More map files that are more up-to-date.
v6.1: All new lines that are cleaner and more appealing to look at.
v6.0: Released to match IcePenguin's v6.0.

================
| III. Options |
================
There are many different options when installing this mod:
1. Hold Borders - All Roads: Offers all of the roads visible with the Hold Borders.
2. Hold Borders - Main Roads: Offers the main roads visible with the Hold Borders.
3. Hold Borders - All Roads - Classic: Offers all of the roads visible with the Hold Borders. The lines look more like the version 6 lines, meaning they are only red dashes, not red and black.
4. Hold Borders - Main Roads - Classic: Offers the main roads visible with the Hold Borders. The lines look more like the version 6 lines, meaning they are only red dashes, not red and black.
5. Hold Borders - Roadless: Only the Hold Borders, with no roads.
6. Hold Borders - Roadless - Classic: Only the Hold Borders, with no roads. The lines look more like the version 6 lines, meaning they are only red dashes, not red and black.

====================================
| IV. Additional Tweaks (Optional) |
====================================
These tweaks to the Skyrim.ini (usually located at Documents\My Games\Skyrim) produce what I
believe is the best experience for viewing the maps. Of course, there are many more. Add
these tweaks under the [MapMenu] category (or add it if it doesn't exist).

uLockedObjectMapLOD=8
Loads some objects in the map such as waterfalls)

sMapCloudNIF=0
Removes clouds from map and makes it easier to see the borders

fMapWorldYawRange=3600.0000
Allows for 360-degree camera rotation

==============
| V. Install |
==============

Simply copy the "Texture" folder and paste it into Skyrim's "Data" folder (usually located at
Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim).
