About this mod

Cities are now CITIES: a complete reworking of the five major cities (Solitude, Windhelm, Whiterun, Markarth and Riften)

Permissions and credits

- Cities Are Cities -




Alpha Version! But playable ;)




What this mod does or is going to add:


This is a complete reworking of the five major cities in Skyrim:

- Adds new buildings and architecture
- Adds Npc's and new factions
- Adds quests with eventually voiced Npc's and ambient city sounds.

Do you ever thought that the cities in Skyrim look like a small village without a lot of life? Yes... me too!
Where are the crazy fantasy cities with huge columns, tight streets, naughty guys and enormous walls?
However, the vanilla cities have a real personality, so I've decided to enhance the cities from this base, with respect of the background, but with some liberty too! ;)
The idea is, more or less, to force the traits of each city and to bring a little bit of crazyness and epicness in it.


What is available for now:


Solitude:


- I've expanded the city on each side to make it bigger with more buildings where you can go.
- Added some decorative Npc's.
- Added some clutter here and there (Dead Stormcloack prisonners, carts, animals, statues, etc.)
Recommended mod to have the same look as in the pictures and the video: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/1753

Cities Are Cities Solitude Alpha Version





Windhelm


- Expanded the city on the mountain where you can go.
- Enhanced the castle.
- Began the other parts of the city.

Cities Are Cities Windhelm Alpha Version





What I'm planning to do:


- Begin the entrances of Markarth and Whiterun.
- Add some merchants and clutter to Solitude.
- Bring some life to Windhelm Upper city and finish the architecture.


Problems and bugs:


This is an alpha version for now, so of course there are bugs, missing things, etc.


Windhelm:

- Collision bugs.
- Missing doors.
- Two or three models don't show up sometimes.
- Needs polishing for the overall architecture.


Solitude:


- Needs polishing too. :p
- "Cloned Npcs" (just for the new ones) sometimes.


What you can do for this mod:


- Download the mod just for testing, then give me feedbacks, ideas, critics, etc.
- When I will work on the new quests with a lot of scripting things, I think some help could be really welcome. I'm not at that stage for now, but I have some ideas, for some new quests, factions etc. So if you are interested, you could send me a PM! ;)


Thanks to download this mod, give me some comments, endorsement and critics! It encourages me a lot to continue! :)
