Description
===========
This mod add some beautiful waterfalls, with subtle lights effects, along the inner walls of the Imperial City districts.

Indeed, have you already asked where come the water of the ponds, in the districts?

Now, enjoy these gorgeous waterfalls in the glorious city of Cyrodiil!

The Imperial waters is specifically designed to be used with the Let the People Drink!, Bananasplit Better Cities and ImpeREAL Empire - Unique Districts modules, but can be used stand-alone too.
Compatible with almost 98% of the existing mods for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion!




Install
=======
Just place the corresponding .esp file to Oblivion/Data and enable it!

If you want to see the lights visible at much longer distance in-game, you need to modify the oblivion.ini file, located at C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\Documents\My Games\Oblivion (if you use Microsoft Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 or Windows Vista).
Open the file with the notepad, and replace these lines by the following modified ones:
fLightLOD2=1500000.0000
fLightLOD1=1000000.0000

Oh! Of course, this modification can decrease the framerate if you have a weak or older graphic card...

If you want to uninstall this mod, just delete the .esp file! It's simple, huh? :)
