Proposed Agenda

Discussung the mainland Chimer stronghold network(s) and other miscellaneous topics.

Travel networks, Imperial Legion planning and Vern's Dunmeri trade guild proposal could use further discussion and TV NPCing design claims could be set up.

Future Releases

  • A general discussion about issues with lack of communication and interaction between asset work on Discord and asset work on the site. (Progress posted to Discord not making it back to the site, feedback on the forum and Discord running in parallel, etc.)
  • Possibly more Narsis/Shipal-shin interior claim discussions.
  • The former Hlan Oek Zenithar cult should be discussed more. It is being removed from Hlan Oek likely to Kragenmoor. After discussion with Infragris and Thomas, the Knights of Iron from High Rock might be a bad fit and a (perhaps more Nibenese) Zenithar cult should probably be substituted (no real effect on interiors).
  • Sorting out which cites have which guild halls
    • Thieves Guild
    • Morag Tong
    • How much do the Temple and Cult need this?
  • Resolving more Imperial Cult issues, perhaps up to a Template Meeting
    • IC shrines start appearing in Thirr Valley and need a better overarching characterisation
    • The faction endgame
  • The integration of PI (Padomiac Isles) assets through TR's browser.
  • The integration of PT (Project Tamriel) assets through TR's browser, via separate categories.
  • Deprecation of T_ScGlobal_LoopTR and global TR_MapPos, and replacement of TR_Map with a new system
  • Addition of a dirt road and bridge (green) to connect to existing dirt road (orange) as to better connect Old Ebonheart/Dondril/Vhul with Almas Thirr/the rest of Aanthirin and avoid the main (red) road

Meeting Notes

Bosmora Mages Guild Relay

Will be removed.

The arguments for doing so:
- It funnels players to an area with 0 mages guild content and negligible content of any kind
- Bosmora is already on the silt strider route
- Mages Guild relays are not supposed to be a thing anymore in the last two years of mages guild planning
- The person (Taniquetil) who made the bosmora relay station, doesn’t want it to exist any longer and is the one who wrote these notes in their original form.

Stronghold Networks

The current mainland network is getting split up into a Narsis District network and Mournhold District network (the westernmost stronghold of which will later be part of the Velothis District network)


Rough current plan for the Mournhold District network. Black Gate is not part of it (and will be relocated to be in between Othrensis and Almalexia). The two southernmost strongholds will be new, along with two added in the Sundered Scar redo. Volenfaryon should be moved to be the southern tip of the Velothis network when those connecting strongholds are ready to be released.


Rough current plan for the Narsis District network. The stronghold in OW_10 should probably be on the southwest corner of the claim, but obviously the suggested locations are rough.

Map location scripts

The scripts governing what cells belong to what dialogue map will be removed, as they no longer serve a useful enough purpose to justify their continued use.
