Mod Description A lore-friendly and script-free Overhaul of the cities and towns of Skyrim. The vanilla theme of the towns has been greatly expanded upon giving each a unique, more immersive atmosphere; Riverwood (lumbar), Rorikstead (farming), Falkreath (graveyard), Dawnstar (port), Dragons Bridge (defensive outpost), etc. New buildings and vendors have been added to the villages making them more vibrant and useful. Town allegiance (banners, guards) dynamically change as the Civil War progresses.
Cities and Towns Overhauled The overhaul covers Skyrim's 5 major cities; Whiterun (and Whiterun exterior), Windhelm, Solitude, Markarth and Riften. The towns of Riverwood, Dragonbridge, Ivarstead and Rorikstead. The small open villages of Falkreath, Morthal, Dawnstar, Winterhold and Skaal Village. Sky Haven Temple Exterior unlocked during the Main Quest.
Compatibility Mods that significantly change the above mentioned towns and villages will most likely not be compatible. Mods altering the exterior of Windhelm, Solitude, Markarth and Riften are fully compatible. Whiterun's exterior has been modified inside the walled area. The stables have not been modified. All texture mods are fully compatible.
Patches for Arthmoor's mod's have packaged together in a neat little FOMOD installer called "Arthmoor's Patch Pack". It is the first Miscellaneous File on this mod page.
Exterior Lighting Overhauls Enhanced Lights and FX Exteriors - Compatible with patch on this mod page Other Lighting Mods - Compatible. Use the optional file JKs Skyrim_No Lights_Patch which removes ALL lights and lighting markers from JK's Skyrim setting the lighting back to vanilla. This is designed to be used with all exterior Lighting Overhauls for full compatibility. Main file JK's Skyrim is still required. * No Lights is a sledgehammer approach and removes ALL lights from JK's Skyrim. Only use it if you have obvious light flickering due to the Skyrim engine limitation of 4 lights hitting a single mesh.
Followers Interesting NPC's (3DNPC's) - Compatible Mirai - Compatible with patch provided to remove clipping outside her Markarth home Recorder - Compatible with patch on this mod page Rigmor of Bruma - Compatible. Minor clipping in Dawnstar
Miscellaneous Landscape Fixes for Grass Mods will reduce grass clipping if your grass is on steroids Thunderchild - Compatible with patch provided moving Pillar of Lightning Shield in Dawnstar 20 metres to the right
[color=#ffd966]Modular Versions I may look at making a Major Towns only and Villages only file like I did for the classic version once everything has settled down and all bugs are fixed and patches are done. I won't be making separate downloadable versions for each town. If you want to remove an individual city follow this guide....
You can also watch the following tutorial made by GamerPoets, it goes in deep about removing towns and updating patches:
