📋 About This Mod

Dramatic Vivec v4. 2. 1 BCoM Edition v1. 3. 1

ESP Replacer for use with Beautiful Cities of Morrowind

This is an ESP replacer for Dramatic Vivec, for use with Beautiful Cities of Morrowind (BCoM) v2. 0. 5. The main thing this does is move the Foreign Quarter clutter and lights to where the FQ sits in BCoM.  As of v1. 3 there is a Redux version with less objects, with the aim of improving framerate.

This is what's been done ->

  • []Drop Vivec Temple (3/4,-13) cells since already included in BCoM.

    []Drop most of the banisters (except Redoran) but Framerate still suffers.

    []Edit/fix link between Foreign Quarter and other quarters.

    []Move all of the Dramatic Vivec FQ stuff to where the Foreign Quarter now is.

    []Add Lights where there was a static lamp but no light to go with it (Arena).

    []Move a ton of clutter AWAY from walls; no more clutter clipping through walls.

    []Drop a few clutter items here and there, you won't notice.

    []Drop some suspicious edits to Puzzle Canal cells.

    []Drop NIF EDIT to the Shrine to stop the Moon (v1. 1 Thanks Bixbalas!)

    Version 1. 2 ->

    • []Patched for BCoM v2. 0. 4 (removed some planters in the corners of the cantons)

      []Dropped all lights that had no emitter (e.g. next to Arch-Bridges and here and there)

      []Dropped all extra "canton" banners (just a few) as BCoM has enough banners already.

      []Made a "Normal Lights" version for use with The Midnight Oil and Nocturnal Moths.

      []Made patch (esp replacer) for Nocturnal Moths, to be used with Normal Lights Dramatic.

      []Included the TLAD Daylights (Necro's Modular) ESP for BCoM.

      []Other small improvements.

      Version 1. 3 ->

      • []Fixed a bench overlap when using Imperial Employment Office

        []Brand new Redux version.

        Version 1. 3. 1 ->

        • []Examined using TES3View and found a few objects had creep'ed in the ESP's that should not have - All cleaned-up now.

          So now there are 3 versions of Dramatic Vivec for BCoM:

          • []The regular version uses static streetlights as before; they do not emit actual light. What emits light are invisible lights placed next to the statics. This looks better, but it's not compatible with The Midnight Oil nor with Nocturnal Moths, and the lights remain turned on all day long.

            [*]There is now a Normal Lights version, which replaces the static streetlights with real Morrowind Lights @ 350 radius. The invisible lights were dropped everywhere except inside the "tunnels" that climb up between the levels. What this means is that if you use The Midnight Oil, the outside Vivec lights will turn of
