Howdy Folks!

Some good news re the project!

What is the next release: 


CITIES OVERHAULED : ARMOURERS
^ Name has changed to reflect the new approach. 

- 12 RMB's affecting every single blacksmith/armorer block in the game across the ENTIRE Illiac Bay (Redguards get Love.)
- Revamping Key Interiors as well as the exteriors including other buildings like taverns. (fixs window placements and adds more clutter.)
- Different Approach that doesn't just scrap block layouts entirely and relies more on fixing weird terrain paths, moving some house placements,
- Rather then fully throwing out the old layouts. 
- Better support regarding mod compatibility, mod authors who want to combine efforts in the future or have their interiors featured can reach out to me on my discord @ .wayton, and I can implement their interiors ie. Red Lantern Guild and then also give them a cool little exterior with some story telling. 
- Addition of Daggerfall Expanded Textures and RMB Resource Pack.

Some of the cool things that this means: 

- Better overall performance with focusing more on utilizing RMB Resource Packs Stalls and other grouped items rather than spamming wood planks. 
- Interiors (never had them before) which hold a solid amount of clutter, some are fully remade from scratch whereas others have window placements moved and or added to match the outside area.
- More Verticality, RMB Resource Pack features Hills that i use often and frequently to add a bit more to each block then just new clutter.
- New Animals and NPC's ie. Redguards in Redguard Blocks as a result of DET

Some of my Personal Highlights from the upcoming release to look out for, 

- New Tavern Interior on AMRAL01/02 that adds a kitchen updates the room designs and adds a lot more substance to the building.
- New Blacksmith Interiors with forges, full house interiors and showrooms.
- Slums in one of my RMB's which uses ruined houses and wooden planks really well and ties it all together.
- Redguard Black Smith Interiors just in general lots of pillows, banners and color and plants that daggerfall's bretons would usually never adorne their spaces with.

FAQ:

Q: What happens to the other blocks currently in the old files?
A: Alot of them are being remade from the ground up so they are discontinued but i will still keep the modders resource file live for others to use.

Q: Will Walls Exteriors Return? 
A: Absolutely, we figured out exactly how they work and it's just a discussion on whether to do a moat around the cities or another method.

Q: When will this release?
A: I can't give a fully set date as i've just finished my annual leave where i've made a ton of progress i would expect to have this out by march.

Q: Whats the progress like so far?
A: 

Exterior Breton RMB's 3/6 
Exterior Redguard RMB's 4/6
Interior Tavern RDB 1/1? 
Interior Blacksmith Breton RDB 3/6
Interior Blacksmith Redguard RDB 3/6 

The Buildings are quite similar in layout so I've made some small changes between each regarding layouts and types of clutter. 


Thats all for me, for now.
