About this image

While I feel like the central square of Oakwood always was the best part and the monastery, added later, enhanced the overall athmosphere, I was never really satisfied with the western gate.

This version feels right to me now. It should be also more performance friendly.

    You plan on adding any quests to the town?

      Yes, around a dozen quests to the village itself and another few to the monastery.

    Archinatic recently added some really nice Nordic owl statues to TGC Winterhold for his temple of Jhunal. They are included in his resource pack and the assets are free use. Might be cool to add them to your temple of Jhunal too maybe? Just an idea.

      Nice! Will certainly add some nice continuity when using both.

    Will this be an edit to the original Oakwood esp, or be included in the upcoming Lady Stone/Shriekwind mod?  I'm going to be starting a new playthrough soon but I'll wait if it's going to edit the original.  Thank you!

      It will be an edit to the original mod. But it will take at least a few weeks until release.

    Looks great! Always a nice surprise to see your updates!
    As you are reworking this area, do you have any plans to add a little dirt path from Oakwood to Lakeview manor to connect them a bit more naturally?
    Also seeing your monastery of Jhunal in the Tundra Overhaul, will you change the Oakwood one to something like Kyne eventually?

      Thank you.

      Yeah, I think I will add a little path. Good idea.

      It will remain a Jhunalian monastery. I really liked the fact that you had to travel around Cyrodiil in Oblivion and do quests for each mages guild chapter to access the Arcane University. I want to place 3 monasteries around Skyrim and when you have completed the quests of each one you get access to a secret fourth one, where you can climb up the faction ladder further.

      That sounds awesome! Great idea to add new guilds that work differently than the 3 vanilla ones.
