Bug fixes and optimizations

- Lampposts in cities: added LOD to improve performance. Slight texture improvements. Fixed issue with the flame effect flickering.
- Brazier models: Fixed shadow bug (reported by KoW). Tweaked the fire effect, updated the texture and added a glow emission map.
- Fixed a compilation error related to a light source (reported by Magicono43).
- Fixed the green ribbon table clipping. Also added undersides to these models.
- Reduced clothes shelf collision boxes so that it’s easier to walk between them in shops.
- Fixed various minor visual glitches (bottle model, standing candle model, fountain effect, desert bed w/roof, lampposts)
- It’s now possible to hit enemies inside the circular cages (reported by Pango)
- Fixed floating objects: desert chair, carts, fence, tables, benches and many more
- Now compatible with Torch Taker mod by Ralzar (requires latest version of both mods)
- Fixed treasure loot piles sometimes pushing players into walls by removing the physical collision box from them. (reported by slashshooter)
- Fixed the open shelf scale/bounds (reported by Uncanny_Valley).

This mod replaces models and 2d flats in Daggerfall with optimized high quality models with handpainted textures. I take great care in making the new models consistent with the original game. All of the design features from older models/textures is preserved where possible with some creative license taken to add more detail. The handpainted style is commonly used in video games, for example World of Warcraft, and I feel it fits in much better with Daggerfall's vibrant art style compared to photorealistic textures.
The mod also builds upon the original game by creating model variations that only show up in specific regions and seasons and fixes visual bugs such as floating objects wherever possible.
Some of the older models are extremely low-poly with little or no distinctive texture work so it's very hard to make them both look good and true to the original but I always try my best to preserve as much of the model as I can for example: http://i.imgur.com/43MGqiq.png
