📋 About This Mod
!!!!!!!!!! Important Update !!!!!!!!!!!!
I will no longer be updating or maintaining this mod as I am now using the Solstheim Overhaul Pack Project (https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/44933/?tab=description), a modular compatibility pack for STOTSP by the brilliant abot - I encourage you to have a look at it and see if it suits your needs.
I will leave this mod available for those that would like to use it.
* STOTSP - NoM Compatibility v1. 1 *
## Note: Mod has been updated to v 1. 1 to fix minor conflicts (refer version history below). You will need to clean your save or start a new game to prevent doubling or other oddities. Apologies for any inconvenience.
Description
Solstheim Tomb of the Snow Prince is a brilliant overhaul of Solstheim, however there is a major incompatibility with Necessities of Morrowind - there are significant landscape and object conflicts with Fort Frostmoth (large tears in the landscape behind Frostmoth, the Mouldy Horker half buried, etc). I always use NoM in my playthroughs but also wanted to use STOTSP, and when I couldn't find a patch to let me play these together I set out to create my own.

Mod Overview
------------
This mod consists ONLY of an edited version of NoM 3. 0.esp - you will need the original mod assets by Taddeus (you can download them from here: http://mw.modhistory.com/download-53-12114 )
The edits to this esp are as follows:
- two landscape cells have been removed with Enchanted Editor (specifically -22, 16 and -22, 17) - removing these looks to have resolved the landscape tears behind Fort Frostmoth.
- I have endeavored to remove or relocate the conflicting objects such as trees and rocks that conflict with the Mouldy Horker and the shop, with a bit of landscape smoothing to unblock the door and uncover the well. I also had to remove a cliff behind the new docks from STOTSP as the back of the cliff poked through the front of the Mouldy Horker once I smoothed the landscape, but it doesn't look too out of place as I've relocated a few rocks to that location.
