Lady Rowenas & NNWs Ayleid Ruins Expanded Project




Lady Rowena and my humble self proudly presents, the EV translation of Series 1 & 2 from our ARE - Ayleid Ruins Expanded - Project.


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


What contains this Plugin exactly?


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



Lately you have read in Black Horse Courier the following articles about the Mysteries of the Ayleids:


A very long time ago, an artifact filled with stored knowledge was hidden by the Ayleids in an unspecified Ayleid ruin, together with lots of gold, welkynd stones and other useful things. Approximately 80 years ago, an Imperial Army troop stumbled across a strange artifact in a ruin of completely strange architectural style - partly Ayleid, partly completely unique. Since they didn't know anything about it they simply let it disappear in the vault of the emperor. Now there are rumors of still more such artifacts that have been been hidden in older days.


Series 1:


A somewhat absent-minded archaeologist of the Mages' Guild in Skingrad has left a mission report there about his investigations. Perhaps you should visit this location in order to receive more exact information“

Lady Rowena & NNW

Looks pretty good!

Do these conflict with any Unique Landscapes? If so, I will wait for a patch.

Only Dungeon 5 had a little Problem with an Part from UL => Beaches of Cyrodiil.
I can't use this UL because it make troubles with an German Housemod

The Exterior Door of our Dungeon cant be found, because it is "under the Earth" with this PI.
You must open the Console and type TCL => Disable Collision. Go through the "Sand" to the Door and after get in reopen it again =>TCL to acivate the Collsion....

The Other Dungeons Entry's are inside Interiors or outside from UL Modded Terrain Parts

Ayleid ruins are properly my favorite type of dungeons in unmodded Oblivion due to their structure, so this sounds quite appealing.

I would like to ask, though, could you give a bit more detail on what this conflict with Beaches of Cyrodiil? Because I don't want to part with any UL mods, so I'd like to know if the conflict is one I can ignore or not.

Anything that adds new dungeons is aces with me. Downloaded.

New dungeons to explore tied together with a backstory? No contest, in my mind. Definitely downloading. :twirl:


I was hoping this one would get translated- thank you for sharing it.

Looks great. I love the Alyeid ruins the best too. They are the most interesting dungeons I think in the game.

/downloaded

:D

There are the mod makers who use their skills in creating additions/tweaks for their own personal use. I have no problem with this even though it doesn't help my game at all.

Then there are those who share their additions/tweaks. They take on the extra work involved in writing a readme and uploading their mod. These actions add immeasurably to my game and are more than worthy of my respect, appreciation, and thanks.

Next come those who take an additional step and provide for the translation of their mod to languages other than their own. I cannot but feel an extra degree of gratitude to these individuals.

Thank you so much for your efforts.

Thanks for the English version, I needed some new places to explore.

I found a small mistake: in the Meshes/Armor folder, there's a folder named "Growfl". I assume it's supposed to be "Growlf"; I've already renamed it, but I thought I'd point it out.

BTW, if you need someone to clean up the English in the readme, I'd be happy to help.

I happened to stumble across Aba Agea Sel when I was travelling the Ayleid Steps, so I decided to go in. It's... long. And hard. (Yeah, yeah, I made a double entrendre.) But seriously - wow. I went in at L26 and had a hard time; I spent a good 2.5 hours in there. I did, however, find a few bugs/things worth noting:

The Dunkel Kringerin are very powerful (perhaps TOO powerful?); I fought two of them for ten minutes or so, over half of one level. I had to use every trick I could think of, and barely won. I also lost three swords - they have a very annoying tendency to disarm you and apparently steal your weapon. To say I'm not happy is a mild understatement - two of the swords aren't unique, but one was enchanted; I don't recall where I got the third, and it might well be unique.

And speaking of swords... when you try to take the Dunkel's sword, you get a message in German.

The chests of loot you get after defeating the Dunkels are definitely worth it, but they're all same, except for the armor and weapons. It's just a minor gripe, but it's kind of immersion-breaking to see the same loot in half a dozen different chests.

The Ayleidskelleton warriors (yes, their name appears just like that) are also very powerful. The combination of bows and arrows they have, along with their high level, makes them really dangerous. Are they and the Dunkels scaled, or static? If they're static, I can understand.

There's a key-only door on in the Hall of Travelers that I assume is supposed to be unlocked by the Key Ebene 1, but it doesn't work. I just used the console to unlock it.

Are there supposed to be ogres, minotaurs, bears, and imps on the lower levels? Given what else is down there (avoiding spoilers), I don't think that's right.

Is the list in the readme the order in which you're supposed to do the ruins? If so, Aba Agea should be locked, and it's not.


All in all, though, I'm hooked. I'm looking forward to finding the next one.

Time 13.08

First, thank you for Bugreporting:

It seems the German and EV Com are not the same players....



No, thats correct. Please let the name like it is! This prevent problems, i you have his Original Mod and deinstall our dungeons later again!




Why do you cheat with the ^ Button ?

This Door has Locked with Level 100 and needs a Key, what can not found in this Dungeon because.....?!

In my Startpost i had written:

Note: You need a special Key to open the next Dungeon, that can always be found in the previously. This will be not apply for the First




Static



I used the spawns LL2Tomb100, LL1UndeadBones, LL2VampireLair, LL2MythicEnemyLair100, LL2MythicEnemyBoss100

What spawns at the End is based on what Overhaul you use.




It included the same LL's like => DungMythEnemyBossChestAlyied02

But, i will change it ...




But it is locked! => I just used the console to unlock it. Dont use the ^ Button





That will be nice
Please do

NNW

@Mercer Meka

- No Clipping when you wear it alone.
- Growfls Body => No clipping when mixed with other Armors
- Exnems, HGEC => clipping when mixed with other Armors
- Babe & Fantasy Body => Clipps a lot

But the included Bonus Armor is very sixy, so use it alone, to get the best Look.

WOW!! This looks awesome. 7 new Ayleid style dungeons to explore :drool: Thank you very much!


(btw does this require a special body-mod in order to use the bonus armor you mention?)

I don't have the original mod (I don't even know what it is!) but I'll change it back.


No, no, no. I think we've got a mix-up in communication here. The MAIN door, the entrance to the entire dungeon, wasn't locked. The door in the Hall of the Travelers, that , THAT was locked. I assume that's what the key went to, since it was the only one I found on the first level.


Okay. You might want to increase the recommended level, then - a L15 would be torn apart in there. At L26, I was fairly evenly matched, one-on-one, but it was still a difficult fight. Those ayleid skeletons, though, were a bit more than I could handle.


Okay, so it was me. I'm using OOO+MMM. I had some odd instances of the natives fighting with the ogres, minotaurs, and such.


Cool.


Sure thing. I'll PM you a rewrite of the readme, since it's pretty short.

Readme and First Post Updated
A Patch for the BoC Problem is at TESNexus available.



Thank's, we do our best to entertain you

Woohoo, I've got a credit!


I assume you're talking to me. I guess this means I need to hop on it. I found the scholar's notes last night, but I don't play much on weekend ends (other stuff to do), so it'll be a bit. I'll post things as I find them, though.

Oh, one thing I should've changed:

"A troop of the Imperial Army, approximately 80 years ago, stumbled across..." should be "Approximately 80 years ago, an Imperial Army troop stumbled across..."

The first version is still technically correct, but the second is less tortured and easier to read.

I also should have noted (as in, written it down) the tablet inscription, because it needed revision too. I'll keep that in mind for future bug reports.

Thanks for the answer I don't use any body mods so this is good news for me. I can't wait to go dungeon crawlin'

Any chance of making a version without Growllf's stuff in it?

I LOVE dungeons, especially detailed ones like these, but I really don't like ridiculous "sixy" "armour" in my game. So do you think you could make a version without it, or even better - make a version that includes a realistic replacement?

@Durza
If you don't like it, just leave it in the chest please

...what?

I think she said, "if you don't like it, just leave it in the chest".

Actually, I was responding to what she said BEFORE she edited it, which was essentially gibberish. If you were around then, you'd know.

So does this add new dungeons or just reconfigure existing dungeons?

If it reconfigures then I guess I need to ask the old question - is this compatible with OOO?

thanks and sorry

It adds new ruins and it should be totally compatible to OOO.

:D
