📋 About This Mod

While there already previously existed quite a lot of patches for Surjamte's Capital Whiterun Expansion, I noticed there were a few that were missing for the mods I wanted to include in my build. In particular, there were not many patches available if also using the combined JK's Skyrim - Dawn of Skyrim patch. Another thing I noticed is that a lot of the custom meshes were missing LOD (fixed in version 1. 5). Therefore, I have made patches for the following mods:

Standalone patches:

  • []3D Whiterun Trellis Improved (uses model based on this mesh for one of Capital Whiterun's trellis meshes: 3D Trellis Improved - Gildergreen Plaza. Goes well alongside Capital Whiterun Expansion - 3D Whiterun Trellis Patch, but make sure to let my mod win the conflict (my mesh is better))[/]

    []3D Whiterun Guard Towers (provides a new mesh for Capital Whiterun's custom version of WRScafGuardTower01, since using a texture set will no longer work with the 3D mesh. Should work for any mesh replacer that significantly alters WRScafGuardTower01.nif)[/]

    []AI Overhaul (moves some AI markers; not needed if using the AIO patch at JK's Skyrim_Dawn of Skyrim_Capital Whiterun - Fixes and Patches)[/]

    []Bells of Skyrim (makes room for the bell and adjusts the navmesh)[/]

    []JK's The Drunken Huntsman (moves a neighbouring building that was bleeding into the balcony)[/]

    []G. I. R. T. H. - Gildergreen Is Really Thicc (adjusts positions of Gildergreen saplings and modifies their object data to match the new model. The alternate sapling model is likely to cause clipping issues, though. Comes with optional Seasons support)[/]

    []Iconic Statues (technically optional; gives the two extra Skyforge heads a similar appearance as the big bird statue)[/]

    []Landscape Fixes For Grass Mods (forwards LFfGM's fixes to the landscape under and around Whiterun to Capital Whiterun, and removes grass from objects placed in surrounding areas)[/]

    []Nature of the Wild Lands (adjusts placement or rescales trees to avoid clipping)[/]

    []Nature of the Wild Lands + Ryn's Whiterun City Limits (conflict resolution on one tree)[/]

    []SkyTEST - Realistic Animals and Predators (removes a fence and adjusts some plants to leave room for the dog)[/]

Patches for Capital Whiterun Expansion - Quest and Dialogue Addon:

  • []Lux (resolves conflict in one cell. Also pay attention to load order rules)[/]
