📋 About This Mod
Released for the Oblivion Modathon!
The purpose of this mod is to (1) make the Mages Guild halls feel more like actual places of magical study and (2) set them apart from each other. In the vanilla, you couldn't tell by looking what each guild hall specialized in. There was nothing Conjuration-y in the Chorrol guild hall, nothing Destruction-y in the Skingrad guild hall, and so on. There was also nowhere to really practice magic. This mod changes that.
Each guild hall (EXCEPT Bruma and Skingrad, for quest reasons) now has a training area specific to their specialization. Chorrol has a summoning circle, Skingrad has dummies for target practice, Anvil has a small infirmary, and so on. There are also many new statics, containers, items, and visual effects to make the guild halls feel more magical and like places of magical learning. For example, the library bookshelves are now lined with books. No more empty space!
---INSTALL----
The usual drag and drop.
---UNINSTALL----
Uncheck the box. Should be enough.
---(IN)COMPATIBILITIES----
Should be compatible with everything that doesn't change the Mages Guild Hall interiors. For some reason, the Skingrad Mages Guild is NOT compatible with Open Cities. The door out of the guild leads you to the closed city worldspace instead of the new Open City space. This has been fixed with the CLEANED version! But my esp file must be loaded BEFORE Open Cities/Open Cities Reborn. Thanks to SuperJohnny94 for helping test compatibility.
