FYX - Riften - Window Consistency

Short description

Successor to RYFTEN - Consistency of windows in Riften. 

This FYX adds the interior windows from Riften, which should have been included at the release of Skyrim. 

No Cell edit: 

• []Use "Base Object Swapper" to replace the new meshes.  [/]

  []Use "XEMI Utility" to apply an "external emittance" to meshes that did not have one.[/]

  Description

  For some unknown reason, the interiors of Riften are severely lacking in windows, while the exteriors are full of them.

  As a result, the interiors are extremely dark; one might even suspect the inhabitants of Riften of being Vampires.

  This FYX is trying to fix that.

  For those who knew RYFTEN, you're going to ask me why I'm releasing a new mod rather than an update ?

  Even though the result will be almost identical, due to its design, this FYX is not compatible with RYFTEN. And it is rebuilt from scratch.

  • []RYFTEN was designed as a classic object placement mod; basically, it places objects in the interior cells of windows against walls (mostly).[/]

  • []This FYX uses existing meshes that I reworked (Almost 50 meshes) to add windows (without a back wall) and uses modern tools like BOS and XEMI Utility to avoid cell editing.[/]

    This approach has several advantages:

    • []As I've said several times, there's no cell editing, so you don't have to worry about your load order. And so you avoid visual problems with light mods if the load order was not correct.[/]

      []Less ESP in your loading order (On this page at least), FYX offers patches in the form of . INI files or meshes.[/]

      []The updates (if there are any) will be safe for your save.[/]

      []Visually cleaner Comparison in the Bee and Barb[/]

      []Windows without a wall behind (like Venilla) are also made to accommodate HELIOS (Nexus Link) or Discord link1 link2 (successor to DIAL) and Dynamic Window Shadows. (This will likely require patching the meshes.)[/]

      This FYX adds missing RYFTEN locations, such as :

      • []HoneySide [/]

        []Riften Warehouse [/]

        []Black-Briar Lodge[/]

        []Goldenglow Estate[/]

      Patches for lighting mods will probably arrive soon. Please be patient.
