Feldscar

A small Nordic village in the lower Jerall Mountains, north of the Frostcrag area. Black Rock Inn serves as the primary means of local support, while trade in hides and leather goods made in the local shop serve as their ties to the rest of Cyrodiil. They live a reasonably isolated life but welcome visitors from far away places. Some well known people have passed through on their way through the back country, as Feldscar is one of the few places to escape the biting cold of the mountains.

Installation

Copy the ESP and BSA into your Data folder.

If you have RAEVWD or some other mod which provides LOD, run TES4LODGen to update it to include Feldscar's buildings.

In order to access some parts of this mod's content, you must disable your border regions. The best and most compatible way to do so is to open your Oblivion.ini file, usually found in My Documents\My Games\Oblivion, find the line in there called bBorderRegionsEnabled and change the value following it from a 1 to a 0. You may have already had to do this for another mod. It is strongly NOT recommended to use so-called border disabling ESP mods because they cause compatibility problems.

Uninstallation

To uninstall, just remove the ESP and BSA from your Data folder. Rebuild your Bashed Patch afterward if you use one, just in case.

If you generated LOD, rerun TES4LODGen to remove the changes to the area.

Compatibility

There are a few bits of other mods nearby to the southwest of the village but nothing appears to cause any conflicts with it at this time.

New village - we do share a like for village mods.

but above Frostcrag? Man that valley is so jammed full of things.

I think most people think nothing is up there, but in my game it is crowded. Can think of about 8 mods I have installed that places things up there.

Will download when available test in the next day or two - let you know.

thanks

Eh, well, check it out and let me know. I only saw a couple of things right nearby but they didn't interfere with it. Being as close to the game border as the two village cells are there may not be anything there to worry about.

Looks realy nice. A great place to rest while in those wild parts of the world. I should also get some fur armour so I won't freeze to death.

Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!



Cheers,
Pushkatu!

This indeed looks lovely

Brilliant work as always Arthmoor! Downloaded and added. I do love your villages. :foodndrink:

Nice work on the village. I wasn't aware of that Nordic Tomb resource. Cool!

Personally, I don't care if it does get crowded. I love that area up there. Solstheim was my favorite area in Morrowind and the Bruma region is my favorite area in Oblivion. This is an immediate download for me. Thank you very much, Arthmoor.

Downloading, thank you Arthmoor :foodndrink:

Screenshots look great, will DL tomorrow when I get back home

It looks nice, thanks Arthmoor!

Instant DL!

Yummy! :liplick: First Faregyl, then Vergayun, and now Feldscar.

Thanks, Arthmoor.

Downloaded, thanks very much. I can't wait to stumble upon it ingame

Woo another village from Arthmoor!! I have yet to play your other ones, but I'm looking forward to exploring them and this new one in my next playthough. These types of mods are my favorite

Gah. Sure seems to be a shortage of decent easy maintenance sites to upload mods to lately. Soon as that ModDB.com link gets approved that should be enough. Megaupload will probably flake and eat it at some point.

Good to see everyone seems to be enjoying the mod so far

I probably asked you this before, but is there any possibility that you can combine all your villages onto one mod?

At the moment, not safely, no. I'd need to restructure the formIDs in order to allow that to be done and not have something get scrambled by Gecko in the process. Any such merger will need to wait until I'm done with the upgrade to Faregyl as well.

No conflcits up there and the placement is good.

The watchtower though is kinda blind on most sides - would seem better placed higher up the hill.

Kinda reminded me of http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=21061 which I've checked all the placements in game and again no conflicts so 'm gonna later it and merge it into a larger mod.

Didn't play through though ... died after that ore deposit shocked me half way cross the valley.

thanks for this one - do another one before merging though!

Uh.

The watchtower ended up mostly for show when the NPC I wanted stationed there kept blinking in and out and wouldn't stay put. It was only ever meant to look like they kept watch toward the road.

And never fear, I've got at least a couple more locations scouted. Unlikely to be quite as ambitious as what I did here though. Probably won't get any serious work done on a new village until the Faregyl upgrade is done.

Have you seen this village mod: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=27351

I have, but haven't actually been to visit it yet.

Looks nice, I'll have to have a look at your other villages as well!

Do the NPCs in the village have new dialogue?

Yes, they have new dialogue.

awesome stuff as always
