About this mod

Adds various static NPCs in the settlements' streets to make them more... lively.

Lively Cities adds static NPCs on the streets of Daggerfall's cities and smaller settlements. You may stumble upon beggars, tavern patrons, prostitutes, priests, commoners, children, minstrels and acrobats the next time you're in town. 

These NPCs can be interacted with and some are guild members who will recognize you if you are a fellow guildmate.

In addition, because I used buildings' exteriors to place NPCs, I added quest markers to around 60 houses that had none. This means that there are 60 new quest locations that can be used for quests. I also fixed floating lights and aligned furniture with the walls for every building I used. You may thus see less visual oddities inside the houses I edited. 

Using Carademono's Vanilla Enhanced - Animated People module is highly recommended, as it brings all NPCs to life with new animations.

Note that, for the moment, desert towns are not fully covered because of the lack of Redguard NPCs. Should the modding community create those, I'll gladly populate these locations.

Note also that the NPCs are not disabled at night, as it is not currently possible to do so.
