Pinevale-Stahlrim Village Patch

Pinevale-Stahlrim Village Patch

A small patch file made by request that will allow simultaneous use of Pinevale by Ruikuli and Stahlrim Village by Dark Rider.

Details =========

Prior to patching, using both of these mods together would result in several conflicts. This included massive rips at cell borders, numerous floating objects, other objects being intertwined, landscape textures being overwritten and path grids disrupted.

Main focus of the patch was of course repairing the massive rips in the landscape and making it all look natural again. Only had to slightly relocate one watch tower from Stahlrim Village. The rest was all landscape texturing and re-working path grids. Also added some rocks, stairs and the like to form a trail linking the two villages.

I strongly urge anyone interested in using this patch to clean the Pinevale mod esp first. Prior to starting on any patch I always clean the source mods. Cleaning Pinevale removed 347 UDR records and 55 ITM records, this was with the "updated" esp which says it was already cleaned. Additionally there are wild edits to areas such as IC Market District and Applewatch Exterior which must be removed manually using Tes4Edit.

Location ===========

Just northwest of Cloud Ruler Temple near the Cyrodiil border
