About this image

Here's a little preview of what the next TGC Solitude might look like. I'm moving many of the structures on the southern side to the northern side. With this I hope the northern side will feel more lively. On the southern side there will be a military fort instead. I'm trying to get it to feel like it belongs in the vanilla game. Still needs a lot of work, but I think I'm on the right track.

      I'm not entirely sure what I'd do with Whiterun or Riften though. Many of my mods focus on making the cities seem more logical. Solitude's docks are underdeveloped. I guess I could also transform Windhelms dock area. For Markarth? Maybe add some Nordic architecture to the city to show that while originally built by the dwemer it has been inhabited by humans for a long time now. But what would I add to Whiterun and Riften? I can only think of extra farms really.

    How about compatibility with popular Solitude overhaul mods, for example Enhanced Solitude?

      The Great City of Solitude already isn't compatible with enhanced Solitude. They do totally different things with the exterior of the city. If a mod only edits the interior of Solitude compatibility is fine.

      Based on the page of Enhanced Solitude, actually they're compatible, since Enhanced Solitude doesn't necessarily edit the docks area. There's probably an additional plugin from that mod which edits docks area, but the main mod itself i think is compatible with current version of TGCS. Thus the story will be different if the next version of TGCS edits the outskirts of Solitude since Enhanced Solitude's edits are also covering the area. Just informing though..

      Aha. In that case not sure. Does that version only edit the area inside the outer bailey?

      Yeah, i think so. It adds many buildings inside the outer bailey of Solitude, from the front gate down until near Katla's Farm (or just above it).
