Citadel of Madness
English Version: 1.0
Translation of Russian Version: 2.0
Author: Lariatius
English Translation By: Vorians
Here you have the Russian mod Citadel of Madness, fully translated into English, including all textures which had Russian writing on
The original mod had only a small amount of voice acting but was mostly unvoiced, the English translation has no voice acting
To the best of my knowledge, I did not miss a single line of Russian, however if you do come across any non-English text still in this mod, please let me know
If you wish to offer a better translation for any part of this mod, please do so and I will review your suggestion (be sure to provide a clear description on how to find the text you want me to review, there is a lot of dialogue, and there are many quest logs and books in NewCity Leyawiin, so saying something like "that note you get during the quest with the khajiit" would not be at all helpful - name the note, name the quest, name the Khajiit)
Differences from the original Russian release:
The ESP has been cleaned using TES4Edit, removing Identical To Master records and undeleting & disabling all deleted vanilla records
All unused base objects in the ESP have been deleted
All meshes have been PyFFIed
All unused resources have been removed
All resources have been packaged into an uncompressed BSA (making the BSA larger than the original compressed Russian BSA)
All custom races which were flagged as Playable are no longer flagged as Playable. These records exist to add unique-looking NPCs, and were not intended to be used by the player
Installation: Drop the ESP and BSA into the Data folder, activate the ESP using the game launcher or your favourite mod manager. Use TES4LODGen to generate LOD added by the mod
Removal: Delete the ESP and BSA from the Data folder
The Russian author recommends waiting until at least level 18 before going to the Watchtower north of New Sheoth to begin the first quest
The Russian author recommends installing the mod only after you have created your character, due to the custom races in the mod breaking the race menu. This issue should not exist in the English translation as none of the custom races can be viewed in the race menu, but if you have problems with the race menu, then disable Citadel of Madness, create your character, and enable Citadel of Madness again

Lariatius's own website and forum no longer exist. I registered on the Russian site where I downloaded Citadel of Madness from only to find that private messaging was disabled, and Lariatius had not logged in for two years, so I was not able to contact Lariatius to make him aware of this translation
