- of in an ocean... Still I was not satisfied, I replaced the ground texture to a brighter
- and happier texture which is intended to look almost identical to the ground texture the
- Mournhold map has. Finally I added more lamps, litter and in the end more NPC\'s to make
- the city really come alive. This is the result.

- WHAT THIS MOD DOES:

- Adds buildings and trees that should be visible from any district in the right place.
- Adds trees outside of the walls to make Mournhold feel like it is actually located on land
- instead of in space or something.
- Replaces the tree models with Vurt\'s trees. Looks much better.
- Pimps up all the district\'s gardens so that it now really looks like a garden instead of a
- plain dull plaque of grass.

- Changes floor texture. The floor now has the tint which the floor seems to have on the official Mournhold map.
- Adds fountains and lilypads to the water near outer walls.
- Adds extra little treecircles, plants, lanterns and ivy.
- Adds more litter in the districts which are being lived in (Godsreach and Great Bazaar) such
- as more barrels, crates, urns etc.
- Adds 56 unique citizen NPC\'s + more guards and beggars, spreaded over all the four districts,
- to make the city feel like people actually live there, come there to trade and such.
- Adds a few beggars to the Temple Courtyard and the Great Bazaar.
