Congrats on the release! It's great to see you guys complete this one, it's had such a long and rough history. Looking forward to playing it at some point.

[AndalayBay]

The new version of Better Cities has been released, which includes a patch for DBC.

Thanks Vorians!

[AndalayBay]

Updated OP with new links after server move. Also updated compatibility list. We're currently working on getting the voice acting done and the rest of the side quests done.

[faithflower]

hey great mod. do you have a walk thought I am bit stuck and don't want to give any spoilers

[AndalayBay]

We are preparing a hint file. Where are you stuck? You can use spoiler tags.

I was going to post an update because we have a new version that's in testing right now. Vorians has completed the patches for Unique Landscapes and is waiting for us to release the new version before he can release the patches, so there will be a new version released in a few days.

[faithflower]

hey thanx in the counsellors room I know it sound silly there's 6 seats,

the silencers and the watcher then what? I took one of the seats and

nothing happens or is there something requerd to start?

It sounds like somebody is missing. There have been players who have had that problem and it's usually a mod conflict. The first step is to sort your load order with BOSS. If that doesn't work, then you'll need to create a bash patch, which requires Wrye Bash. You have another mod in your load order that is interfering with Arquen's AI packages.

And if you want to post spoilers, please use spoiler tags. Highlight the text that should be in spoiler tags and pick Spoiler from the Other Styles drop-down list box.

o ok sorry about the still learning how every thing works on the forum. i have never used the wrye bash.

[faithflower]

looking at the boss now looks easy

[faithflower]

o and thanx, great mod even if i can't work it

[faithflower]

took most mods off, even offer black hand add once extended whispers and so on, though it would be one of those, used the boss thing, I will wait for the new version,

Looks like this mod is getting File of the month over at Nexus. Congratulations.

[AndalayBay]

Thanks Ysne - we're keeping our fingers crossed.

Version 1.1 Released

The main changes in this version are the release of the Unique Landscapes patches which Vorians was so kind to do for us and the addition of another side quest. He also edited the DBC plugin itself to reduce the number of patches needed - yes I had to relinquish control for an evening - it was very traumatic!

File has been uploaded to Nexus already and I'm currently uploading it here. Could some kind admin please import it into Downloads once it's finished?**

Changes:

• several landscape edits to reduce number of patches needed for Unique Landscapes - thanks Vorians
  
• generated silent voice files so Elys Universal Silent Voice no longer needed
  
• fixed minor dialogue issues
  
• pulled in voice acting (not complete)
  
• various fixes to SQ01 - Infiltrate/Assassinate
  
• moved Skingrad keys quest marker inside house
  
• give player lighthouse key if they don't have it
  
• fixed Hermit's disposition calculation
  
• fixed conditions on some of the generic dialogue so Watcher and/or Arquen didn't say lines
  
• altered landscape around Zannadil Manor to fix conflict with the Ayleid Steps
  
• added path grids to Stronghold rooms
  
• adjusted landscaping around Joanna's cabin. Fixed path grids
  
• minor fixes for SQ04 - Cold Blood and Steel, including resetting the global subtitles
  
• added another side quest: SQ03 - Blood and Gold
  

So that brings the number of side quests up to 4 in addition to the main quest. We will be adding 4 more side quests and that will complete Awakening.

**Edit: It's done now.

coool its working

love the voice of the watcher

thanx for all the hard work in making the mod

[AndalayBay]

Excellent. I was just going to suggest a few more things we might try - glad to see they aren't needed. Have fun

[AndalayBay]

Vorians has just released an update to Skingrad Outskirts to resolve a conflict with DBC. If you're using that module of Unique Landscapes, please grab the update.

[AndalayBay]

New version is now available here at TES Alliance. Thanks DarkRider

[AndalayBay]

We've just discovered that there is NO CONFLICT with Shezrie's Woodland village. I've updated the OP with the new conflict list.

[Amadaun]

We've started brainstorming for the sequels. If anyone wants to chime in with stuff they'd like to see, we've got a thread on our forums - let us know if you've got ideas.

[AndalayBay]

Time for an update: work on 1.2 is well underway. I've added the last two side quests, bringing the total to six. Several existing quests will be overhauled. I've already rewritten Cold Blood and Steel.

We're also created custom menus for the The Lair of the Mystic. Those who have done that quest already know how it would benefit from custom menus. I won't spoil it for those that haven't. This does mean that DBC will require MenuQue for version 1.2 and onwards.

I'll keep you posted as work continues.

[AndalayBay]

Arthmoor has released a patch for Roads of Cyrodiil.

Work on Awakening 1.2 continues. The first round of beta testing is complete. The coding changes are done and we're just waiting on some new resources before releasing the second version into beta testing.

[AlexanderLovett]

Wait... Is this the same Dark Brotherhood mod that used to have the domain name "thedarkbrotherhood.com"? Because my heart has been perma-broken ever since that site went down and I thought the project had been abandoned. :/

[AndalayBay]

Yep, one and the same. Our home is on The Assimilation Lab now.

 

The new release is done. We're just trying to get the voice acting finished. That will probably never happen, so we'll release once we've got a couple more roles done, which are being worked on.

Awesome. I'll be getting Oblivion for the PC soon, then, so I can finally play it!
