TIE Integration Revised

Name: TIE Integration Revised Version: 1. 2 beta 3 (based on TIE 1. 25, by Veritas Secreto and contributors) Date: 2009/05/03 Category: Gameplay Effects and Changes Requirements: Full FCOM install, Wrye Bash Author(s): Ulrim Source: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=18071 Forum: http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=854467 Description =========== T. I. E. (Tamriel Immersion Experience) is a light weight overhaul for vanilla Oblivion, made by Veritas Secreto and other contributors. You can find more details about T. I. E. at http://www.stephanewuttunee.net/tnr_tie.html This mod only integrates the work done by Veritas Secreto (and others) in TIE with FCOM Convergence. I took a standard TIE release and created the compatibility plugins to properly blend some of its features in FCOM. Besides the beautified faces by Veritas, there are also fixes for other mods on top of FCOM and TIE. Details ======= Please notice: This mod is to be used in a full FCOM install with OOO 1. 34 beta 5. I don\'t have time or resources to integrate TIE in every mod combination. The flavour \"TIE4MODS\" fits that purpose nicely. A quick example: some wild creatures should keep factions introduced by KOTN, but I only mainain the patch to integrate TIE\'s tweaks into Knights creatures in FCOM-Convergence Oblivion world. Warning: This mod increases your chance to get killed very easily if you are not careful! Bandit spawns from TIE are very tough opponents, especialy in the begining of a new character. What changes affect my FCOM game? TIE Integration Revised tries to take out as little as possible from the original T. I. E. in order to become compatible with FCOM. This latest version removes most NPC and creature edits. Sound and game settings changes from TIE are also removed. This is because I used many mods that tweaked such things (besides FCOM) and opted to release a sane version. I\'m doing this also because I don\'t have as much time as I used to support and update the mod. Creature changes from TIE have been removed in this version. There are still some smaller rats and mud crabs but overall, creatures are left alone for MMM 3. 7+ The same happens with the rest of NPC customization - they were left alone for FCOM to handle, minimizing possible incompatibility with future versions. The NPC integration from TIE made actors stronger than intended in FCOM (for static NPC levels that were left out in OOO). In this update, most TIE NPC revisions were cleaned. In a way, this was also because if you used this mod toghether with Deadly Reflex Timed Block and Damage, the game would be unplayable for begining characters. Other things were kept, such as increased thieving difficulty, harder locks with ownerships, unique containers with food or items, books, changes to ingredient alchemical properties and unique NPC appearance. These changes blend with the ambiance of FCOM for a more slower paced game. Plug
