Skyrim Improved

News (02.01.2010):
All Files are online. Please remember it's an actual WIP.

Note:
The current version is in my opinion, no version to play with, you should create a savegame before activation the Mod, then wander around the new landscape, and then continue from that save point without the mod, in order to avoid future incompatibilities.

Requires = Dragon Captions Resource Pack (DCRP) V.1.5.4b+ -DCRP Files
and official Shivering Isles Addon

The ingame borders have to be disabled.
A. By switching the "bBorderRegionsEnabled=1" to "0" in your Oblivion game ini file. Which can found in your "My Documents/My Games/Oblivion" folder.
B. Or by installing a border removal mod, e.g. "Borderless Cyrodiil."

===================================================

1.Introduction:
The Home of the North, the origin of the empire and birthplace of the septime dynastie, Skyrim. A cold and lonely region in the north of Cryodil, where only the strongest can survive the harsh winters and the attacks of the beast from the high mountains.

This Mod is going to give you the chance to explore this region.

===================================================
2.How to get to Skyrim:
You can go from Cheydinal, head to the Moonmoth Priests and follow the street into the north.
Or you come from Bruma, head North and go to a Mapmarker called "Pass to Skyrim".
Or you start somewhere in the wilderness and just go north :-)

===================================================
3.Goals of the Mod:
The goal of this mod should be to create and populate the region of Skyrim, so that other moders have a base to place quests and other thing into an existing world, like cryodil.
Every Lore known Town and City will be included and populatet and connectet with roads and maybe other travel opportunitys, like boats.

===================================================
4.State of the Mod:
Highmap and Textures are done, all Citys and Villages have a prototype that needs finishing. Solitude, Dawnstar and six Villages are ready.

===================================================
5.Recommended Mods:
Dragon Wood by Düsterbertie
Dragonwood Mod

Evandars Snow Texture Replacer
Replacer

Rabiators Map
Link to Map.esp under Files
Has to be loaded as the last mod, else it will not show.


===================================================
6.How can i help?
Well if you want to help, you or your team can claim a town or a whole city, or a place in the landscape and do the exterior work.
If you like doing interiors you can make different Versions of the Bruma Interiors, which are atm the base house type in Skyrim.

Actuall Claims and some more Screenshots can be found on our HP:
