Indeed, because of the small size of Cyrodiil, they were forced not to have chapels everywhere as it was in the original lore. In the world of Tamriel, Sutch most likely exists as a city, Dibella has her dozen cults and the other gods also have more than one chapel in the wilds. (And, yes, each city has a temple dedicated to more than one god I'm certain) As for the idea of building small priories around shrine, I thought about it. I will most likely do it once I'm done with the rest of the project though. Oh really, no problem at all! I've been enjoying the game itself for the last few days as well. I didn't play the game in a year. It was good to re-discover it a bit. (But I feel the urge of modding coming to me again! ) Take your time. I'm not even finished with the chapels and the knightly orders' headquarters.

Well Lore says that there are around a dozen cults devoted to Dibella in Cyrodiil. And, there are dozens of wayshrines in the wilderness devoted to every god. So that doesn't matter.

Here's another resource. Armory Clutter by Omegacron.

Thanks for the feedback, Zaldir! (And congrats for your 100 posts ) I added a lot more trees to make it feel like a sanctuary, a place where you can feel safe from harm. But I do agree that it needs more "natural beauty". I'll add more bushes and landscape items. As for buildings, the chapel is used by the priests and followers when it's raining outside. (No one would like to stand in the rain for four hours, listening to the priests. The Kynaran Order's headquarters is somewhat far from the Shrine (And is hidden by the trees), so it doesn't conflict too much with the landscape. As for the farm houses, they are used by the priests when they do their research, eat or sleep. Thanks to your feedback, I'll actually add more foliage and beauty to the Shrine itself, so it's more unique. (Oh and tame animals are around by the way. Deer, bears and wolves walk around. If you attack them, not only do they turn on you, but so do the priests and the Kynaran Order. ) By the way, important information! Losing My Religion will not be compatible with some of Unique Landscapes modules, because I do some landscape changes for the knightly order headquarters and the Shrine of Kynareth.

No worries, the pews have not been touched. The only furniture I've removed are the various altars dedicated to the gods that stand near the glass-stained windows.

Congrats StarX! I'll drink to that!

Excellent! Noted. Let me know if you find any evil bugs in the modules. Why did I type resurrect? I meant "replace". For the dead knights, I'm thinking of making their armor unusable (Such as naming them "Broken Gauntlets, Broken Cuirass, etc". Because it would be too easy to get excellent stuff right from the start of the game. Every suit of armor from the knightly orders are as good as Dwemer.

Thanks a lot for the tutorial, bg! All I had left to do was the AnimObject. The Undertaker can take notes of the stashed bodies in the mortuary now.

I was doing sound editing yesterday and I've created all the music and sound ambiances for the Better Inns module. Here are three samples, (There are six in total) Notice the changes in the sound ambiances from one class to the next. Low Class Tavern (There's an easter egg here. Can you notice it?) MIddle Class Tavern Upper Class Tavern Credits for the songs: Low Class Tavern Mark Morgan, Copper Coronet Tavern, from the Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack Cuthroat Mods, CM Partners mod for Morrowind Middle Class Tavern Mark Morgan, Tavern 1, from the Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack Eric Heberling, Folk 2, from the Daggerfall Soundtrack Upper Class Tavern Mark Morgan, Harp, from the Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack Mark Morgan, Harp2, from the Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack Mark Morgan, Harp3, from the Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack Spoiler tags were used to help with page loading I just checked them all in the pack you sent me. I love them! Thank you very much IS! I believe I'll a screenshot of every god statue in their chapels and will send them to you. They'll be perfect when entering chapels. Ok, now another thing, the Order of the Lily and Maran knights would have protected the priests in their respective chapels, so they need some reason why they could not protect them, we have two choices there: 1, they were out crusading or something away from the chapel at the time. 2, they were defeated by the aurorans and fled. hope I helped. Thanks a lot for this information! Most useful indeed. I didn't remember the chapel of Mara was seriously damaged. The priests will not be essential then. Like in KOTN, if they die, they'll resurrect. As for your points: The chapel of Dibella is the first to be attacked, and they were attacked by surprise. So the Order of the Lily could not intervene in time. So every NPCs I've added will also be killed in the chapel, including the two knights of the Lily who guard the chapel. For Mara, you'll find their corpses as well.

I've succesfully applied the SETakeNotes animation to an NPC and he uses it correctly, thanks to a token that activates the animation. But, strangely, the quill and book won't show up and he ends up doing "air writing". Then I searched which Shivering Isles NPC has the animation and saw in-game that the book and quill does show up on that NPC, but not on mine. The SI NPC has a quill in his inventory and so does my NPC. Here's what I've done for the animation and AI Package related to it: Idle Animation Conditions: GetIsUsedItem: OblivifallLMRIdleAnimTakeNotesToken == 1 AI Package: Package Type: Use Item At Flags: Skip Fallout Behavior Location: Near XMarkerHeading "OblivifallLMRArkayUndertakerTakeNotesMarker Target: Any Object "OblivifallLMRIdleAnimTakeNotesToken" I'm facing a wall here. The NPC correctly take notes at the right position, but no object show up. And he has a quill & paper in his inventory, in case that would be the problem. Yet, Haelion, a Shivering Isles NPC who uses this animation, has a book and a quill to write with.

Hurray! Thanks! , so we need some sort of patch for that dont we?. The old Nine Divines faction is gone. I did it remove it from the game to avoid incompatibilities with mods that use it though. It's still present in the database, but is not used by its members anymore. With a script, I removed the Nine Divines faction members and replaced their affiliation with the god they worship. For KOTN, there will be compatibility patch for those who use it. The House of Dibella will be even more destroyed, with the additional decorations and NPCs. One thing I wonder, though. I haven't played KOTN since its release. Does the Chapel of Dibella ever get "restored"? Or does it say ruined and desecrated like Kvatch? And you said something abour Mara? I don't remember seeing it desecrated.

Very nice outfit you did there! Vampire hunters will love it I'm sure. Thanks for the armor!

It does indeed. Can't wait to see the new Order of the Lily cuirass and shield. Actually, since the mod is continuously being modified, I prefer that we go with pictures I've already posted. And I, too, prefer the second option. It will give space to write information about the religion and knightly order. Thanks! I will try to make a video soon enough that shows the interiors in action. As soon as I manage to get permissions for many outfits used by the religions, I'll make a video. Weak because they are the godess of Beauty's military arm? Do not judge them by their looks, they can be deadly. I'm currently awaiting Eventine Shangea's permission for the usage of his astonishing and beautiful Order of the Hour armor and Akatosh Chantry robe. The robe will be worn by Martin Septim, since he was a priest of Akatosh (Other Akatosh priests will wear it as well). I'm sure the robe will fit Martin perfectly. (And it will be better than that blue tattered robe he wears)

Oh that would be most excellent! Thank you IS. Will you take the pictures that I have posted? Or do you prefer to take your own pictures? I could send you the mod so can you can take the pictures. Shields, banners, bookcovers, posters, oh my! (Especially banners. Right now, I'm using the religion's banners for the knights' headquarters, but having a banner with their own logo would make it even better.) Thanks! Very nice. I love it. The Order of the Lily will be happy to have their own logo. Thanks!

New screenshots for you to feast our eyes on You'll notice on the screenshots that I've replaced every glass-stained window with clear ones. I didn't want the other gods to be present in the temples, in any way possible. Behind the statue is the stained window of the god worshipped in his temple.
