📋 About This Mod

Description

I really like MTC Expanded Villages Updated. I'm a sucker for village mods and although this is a simpler mod, it really makes those never-touched vanilla settlements feel more fleshed out, especially since marob307 has taken the time of fixing the issues with Nernie's original version. Meanwhile, mixxa77's most recent mod Better Campsites quickly became one of my favorites, as there's not really many mods touching the vanilla campsites. This one makes everything feel so much better with more variety and new interiors!

However, there's a small overlap between the two: the unnamed camp near Dragonclaw Rock. MTC adds a new small village, Rimehold, while Better Campsite overhauls it and turns it into Two Decker Camp. This bash mergeable patch simply moves Two Decker Camp a little further down the road, fixing the only issue these two mods have.

Largely untested. Tried my best at keeping the same overall layout of Two Decker camp, but had to make some small concessions. From what I've tested, everything is playable without any issues. Pathgrids are mostly fixed (as I really don't know how a good pathgrid should like, I've tried my best at making sure everything is fairly connected and NPCs don't get stuck, which they don't seem to do).

Not compatible with Unique Landscapes. If you're using UL Snowdale (either standalone or as part of the Compilation version), there will be some issues I don't really intend to solve since a Better Campsites - Unique Landscapes patch is available now. This is also not compatible with that patch since the solution it offers is to remove Two Decker Camp from existence altogether, which makes this patch redundant. No other known incompatibilities remain.

Nernie and marob307 for creating MTC Expanded Villages and the Updated version, respectively.

mixxa77 for his wonderful Better Campsites mod (and all the other high-quality mods they have made)

shadeMe for his Construction Set Extender.
