📋 About This Mod
Continuing with my series of "I want to run with unique architecture everywhere, but that requires SO MANY compatibility patches" series.... Karthwasten! Archinatic put together an overhaul of Karthwasten in his The Great Town of Karthwasten, and I've put together a series of compatibility patches for things in
my load order which needed it. This one is rather small - not that many things which needed to be patched, and I've avoided reinventing the wheel for any patches that exist elsewhere. All patches are ESP flagged as ESL, unless otherwise noted.
This has been updated for The Great Town of Karthwasten version 2. 0, huge thanks to Czasior.
Included Patch Descriptions
3DNPC/Interesting NPCs - Forwards Persistent tag on NPC ref to match new location. Last checked against version 4. 54

Atlas Map Markers - NOTE: Based on MCM version. Adds a map marker for the added inn and store. MCM toggles are supported. AMM patches are being released for other patch collections and will require end-user CR between patches in order for MCM toggling to work for everything.

Enhanced Lights and FX - Only one patch this time around, due to there being a new building and wanting to keep consistency in lighting mood across all of
them. Forwards any conflicts, having the Great Town of Karthwasten win, shifted door lights, etc, where appropriate. Last checked against version 3. 06. Please note that these buildings will be much brighter than typical ELFX buildings.
