Version 1.2 available for download, removed all navmesh edits, finished placing NAVCUT collision markers around new objects and relocated/removed some objects for better compatibility with immersive citizens and better performance. Also added a few chests with loot to the new Warmaiden’s outside storage and the East Empire small warehouse for all you thief chars out there, other small tweaks and additions.
Now go explore, there's more to see than shown in the images! enjoy.
If you are experiencing the black bridge texture problem, other users have reported the same issue, the user LeanWolf find out that a bad mesh from Project Parallax is causing the problem:
wrBridgeStone01.nif
His recommendation was to delete that mesh from meshes/architecture/whiterun/wrterrain and the bridge will appear normal.
Dawn of Whiterun compatible file available under optional files tab, this is not a patch but a rework of my original mod if you are using Dwan of Whiterun you only need to install the compatible version, hopefully I was able to fix all the mayor clipping/overlapping issues, you still need to open the console and disable BluePianoTwo workbench at the Skyforge and the big rock overlapping with the bench at the new Dragonreach garden, sorry about that, enjoy.
Open Cities compatible file available under optional files tab, this is also not a patch but a rework of my original mod if you are using Arthmoors Open Cities you only need to install the compatible version, load my esp before/above the Open Cities one.
A Merged ESP containing Open Cities by Artmoor and my Cities overhauls has been released by Steve25469, go check it out http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/59935/?
ThreeTen the new author of Real Shelter just released a compatibility patch for JK Whiterun and he is planning on releasing compatibility patches for the entire series. You can check it out here: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/52612/?
As has been announced I'm going to be taking over maintenance of JKs city and town mods while he moves onto other stuff. At this stage I'm not planing any content updates, or patches, however I'll still be fixing any major bugs or issues that arise in the files so please do keep reporting them. JK has also asked me to handle any permissions questions that come up so feel free to direct them my way as well. As far as I'm concerned, and the way JK has always approached it, there's open permissions for compatibility patches, although please do let me know that you have made a patch is all I ask and give me a link to it, but for anything more then that please ask me first before publishing. As per JKs request, I will also be doing the conversions for all the remaining cities and towns over to SSE as well which will be coming in the new year once I have my new PC set up. Please don't ask me for an ETA, I don't have one, but where possible I'll also bring them to console as well. I'll also be including the bug fixes I worked into JKs Lite to fix a few little things that people may be running into problems with.
I don't regularly check these pages for new comments due to their age so if you have an urgent bug to report, your best bet to get in touch with me would be to toss me a PM on Nexus or Reddit. Alternatively, I have a small discord channel set up for various modding projects you can join by clicking here which I'm pretty much on every day so come and have a chat about these files or any other mod you wish.
lots of reports of CTDs when using these JK's mods, thought i'd make this comment. This mod, and his other city mods, full of CTD comments. Stay away I guess.
what a pity i was going to use this mod as a beauty mod but everyone complains and once i used it and it also gave ctd but it was another version of skyrim
I guess that the 32 bit LE engine can't handle the huge amount of items JK adds to the cities, causing the CTDs. LE is very sensitive regarding city expansions unfortunately.
Anybody had a crash in Whiterun soon as they enter the gate? Never had this before...remove this mod and the crash is gone. After 10 years, I gave it another run and this outside mod Ctd..Tested out a few times just to be sure JK':s Whiterun outdskirts v1.2 according to Vortex
Nice mod, I would appreciate a version with no op loot containers though. That East Empire Warehouse in Whiterun for example, is immediately accessible with a new char and has two chests with insane loot: 600 septim and dozens of expensive items (I've got morrowloot ultimate installed, just fyi but I think it's from your mod). Feels like it makes the game too easy.
I can't see another version coming out as it's been 7 years since the last update, But the thing to remember about loot is it's not compulsory to take it, and as Morrowloot will enable you to fill your pockets anyway you could leave it where it is for a few levels and come back when it doesn't make an OP difference... or you could just give it to the temples, waste it on booze!
hey, facing CTDs when in whiterun, I did all in the requirements and also made sure to no t use anything that changing anything in whiterun but still the faced CTDs now and then, can you help solve this issue?
Just a quick thank you! This makes such a wonderful difference to the city. I initially downloaded Whiterun and Riverwood; and am so happy with this mod that I had to come back and download the rest of the cities and towns! Wonderful work!!
I've tried to use this mod in so many playthroughs. Now I have had the wonderful chance of testing it with just 4 or 5 mods in my load order including XPMSE, and it still does nothing but make Whiterun the most CTD-ridden location in all of Skyrim. It's obvious though that this mod's support has ended and been abandoned, so i wouldn't recommend downloading at all, as it is a very Beta WIP at this point.
I just try this mod and Whiterun is beautiful ! It's absolutely incredible ! I love the way the city look.
But i'm afraid to keep it because : - It's a FPS killer... I have normally 55 to 60 FPS without this mod; i dont have more than 30 FPS with it... :/ - Fist test, i was just running into the street, simply admiring the new look, and the game has crashed without no (understandable) reason.
So i dont know now what i want to do with, keep it, not keep it... :(
You could try JKs Cities - Lite and SuperLite mod to reduce objects, clutter and secondary details for a better perfomance while mantaining the same style. There are two versions, lite and super lite. In my opinion, it looks better in some of the lite versions, because the level of detail can be over the top with this overhaul.
Me too. I had to uninstall it. It doesn't seem compatible with Dawn of Whiterun even with the compatible file, and using Resaver every tiime I come to Whiterun brings up more and more undefined threads that need to be removed. It's bugs are endless and seem to make Whiterun spin out of control the longer you play.
