M3A4 Stuff: No longer relevant to this section, keeping for future reference.
[spoiler]M3#4: East, already released
(extend this review to the whole Inlet Bog sometime) (UESP links are mostly to empty pages, maybe try and complete them)
Inlet Bog region, medium-high level (few durzogs, frost atronach).
Northern part has very large exterior Daedric ruins and no NPCs of note except [url=http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes3Mod:Tamriel_Rebuilt/Lagat_gra-Lumbak%27s_Shack]Lagat gra-Lumbak[/url], some sort of Imperial Legion ?spy keeping watch near the ruins? who won't talk to you.
Southern part is completely dominated by Ruinous Keep with nothing around it.
- [url=http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes3Mod:Tamriel_Rebuilt/Asohaldan]Asohaldan Grotto[/url] - very low level (1+) mudcave.
Rats, lumishrooms, obligatory waterfall.
Basically no loot: troll locked chest, + 50g in a rather hidden underwater chest requiring telekinesis.
Such a lowlevel cave seems out of place in the region, but the hidden chest could contain something better to make up for it.
- [url=http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes3Mod:Tamriel_Rebuilt/Maesabun]Maesabun, Obalus Burial / Elu Burrial / Hollow Burial / Sunken Burial[/url] - medium level (?) very extensive, interconnected ashlander burial moldcaves.
Very few enemies (ghost, skeleton, rats). Little medium loot - two basic enchanted spears, devil longbow, couple bonemold armour pieces on a drowned corpse.
- [url=http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes3Mod:Tamriel_Rebuilt/Teknilashashulpi]Teknilashashulpi[/url] - high level (~20) Daedric shrine to Azura.
3 Winged Twilights, 4 hostile cultists.
Very well hidden daedric dagger requiring levitation. Otherwise ~2500gold of loot, but most gems are cursed (grand total of **8** cursed gems and chest?!?). Standard alchemy, books, soulgems.
- [url=http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes3Mod:Tamriel_Rebuilt/Ruinous_Keep]Ruinous Keep[/url] - high level (30) necromancer & lich lair, very high-profile (hard to miss a fort in the middle of a lake)
A quest to rescue an imprisoned ordinator and kill the lich starts there. Ties-in to the Tribunal Temple and/or House Indoril (sent to the Almalexia Ordinators captain when completing the quest)
M3#4: West, in review
Last western bit of Inlet bog with Seyda Vano, the Indoril player stronghold (currently not NPCed for non-Indoril players) and two random shack dwellers. Large bit of rocky ashland (? _rm, _ma) cuts through it, mostly empty.
- St. Seryn Infirmary - Temple Velothi tower.
Alchemy services and spells. Couple of quest hooks for the Tribunal Temple or House Indoril.
- Bthung - Dwemer ruin, two levels.
Upper one is lowish level (1-5) : spiders guarding a couple of dwemer weapons and ~2000gold's worth of jewels.
Lower is mediumish level (5-10), behind lv50 locks, with Centurion Spheres guarding little of interest.
- Ilvi Mine - glass mine, workers and Indoril Guards watching the nodes.
Underwater passage leads to a troll area with empty glass and iron; a secret levitation passage behind the obligatory waterfall leads to an unguarded area with ~15 raw glass.

Thanks for setting this thread up, rot. I've been busy lately on non-TR matters. I hope to finally iron out the problems with Almas Thirr over the course of February.
I seem to recall someone saying that some additional exterior work needs to be done between Almalexia and Othrensis before we can split the smaller city off for work.

I certainly did say that, but don't ask me what precisely. I only suggested some detailing (there is some barren grassland and, unlike Nemon, I don't think everyone will be using MGE XE grass), but then Swiftoak brought up the point that the whole place looks too much like Ascadia and maybe one should try doing something about that; I don't know how much has been said since then.
If we could have a general palisade wall mesh or set of meshes, that would be appreciated and useful in Uld Vraech areas as well as Dondril, as right now we are just using a single pole mesh over and over and over again, I believe. A custom mesh would cut down greatly on face count.

So is that confirmation that the Dunmer palisade wall tileset we discussed in the "Models needed for Morrowind" thread is indeed being requested? If so, I'm your guy. I can throw something together. Might even go above the call of duty with it if I get engrossed in the task.
If you make a claim for it, could you include the pictures of Dondril just so I can see the types of curves I may want to emulate to make it better suited as a replacement?

Just to toss in my two cents, I don't see any reason for Dondril to have a palisade and think it looks as good and memorable without it, which is saying something considering Dondril is a shack village. It's an interesting concept, but I'm not sure if the middle of the Thirr River Valley is the best spot for it.
For now, Melchior, could you just create a new thread for them in Models & Textures?

Btw I added a summary of M3#4 in [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?p=319469#319469]this post[/url]. More (much) later if no one gets to it but feel free to.
To demonstrate why I think this should systematically be done, here's the sort of observation that you can get from it: Asohaldan Grotto is some sort of anomaly in the region (not to say it can't stay a troll cave, but it's at least available for something more if needed). These should also list quest hooks, special NPCs that need to be used for something, etc.
edit: should also mention how safe the exterior is, accessibility of dungeons from roads (how likely it is for one to find them / get to them), which I didn't do

The logic that got this int repurposed as an infirmary was that we had too many monasteries already. (It would probably have been better had you voiced your concerns before IP has NPCed the place...) If it is a monastery, what should it be producing/studying/teaching?gro-Dhal wrote:St Seryn's Infirmary doesn't make a lot of sense to me as is. A hospital in the middle of nowhere?
It would make more sense if it was a monastery that incidentally provided healing services to travellers A slight shift in emphasis, with maybe a few fewer hospital beds and a few more monks.
Yeah sorry i've only just seen the place.

After looking at neighbouring areas, I think there should be at least 1-2 more ancestral tombs in this section. One south of the a3-a6 'border', say m3a3 (11,-31) ? Perhaps [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=21267]i4-227[/url] if it still hasn't been relocated anywhere else.
The flashmap was accurate for this part. Still,

As far as the name is concerned, it's not as though we have a surplus of brilliant Imperial Fort names, so I'm sure the name can be used elsewhere. The exterior itself looks rather easy to relocate, for that matter, if it is deemed worth keeping.
I personally think the Imperials already have enough presence in the area (I believe they will have some presence in Almalexia, at least going by current plans), and that Old Ebonheart being handed over to the Imperials probably already caused enough offense to Indoril without a legion fort so close to the capital of Morrowind.
I also have no idea what strategic purpose the fort would serve. The region is safe, while Almalexia is far too large to be threatened by such a small garrison.

current state,
- M3A4west : idle. No major exterior work, unless someone feels inspired to do something creative where the waterfalls are (otherwise can just be removed) Needs more dungeons, see below. Note that south of m4east accentuates the emptiness. Could easily have 1-2 ancestral tombs
- M3A6 : Nemon ? still needs splitting. What's happening with this?
- M3A3 : idle. Only major exterior work needed is the road, which probably needs M3A6 to be split first. Otherwise needs NPCing
- M3A2 : Yeti

Updated first post with [url=http://i.imgur.com/WlxsoGK.jpg]combined map[/url].
So adding tombs. (for comparison, Andothren-Thirr now has 7, for a roughly equivalent area, to the current 3 here) Should be overall better maintained (= just guarded by undead) than on the hlaalu side.
Let's say 1-2 south of A3, one somewhere around the ex-waterfall in A4west ashlands strip. I'll do it sometime if no one gets to it first
Any ideas for other dungeons to add to A4west, the most empty area? A possible substitute could be exterior "events" (ie misc quests)

Update, added a whooping *TWO* dungeons claims to m3a4w. Waterfalls replaced by an ancestral tomb to the best of my ability.
That sounds cool, though no idea how to go about that. If an exteriory person feels like ~... and also perhaps de-suckifying (&/or bridging?) said ancestral tomb entrance in m3a4west (11,-19), that could be swell.arvisrend wrote:Some deerstands for guarding the Inlet Bog (and providing additional security to the Ilvi Mine) could make sense on that hill ridge.
Indoril lands should precisely be less like wildernes, and discrete locations for friendly NPCs in no way achieves that. The OTH region (m3a4w to a lesser extent but still) is the best place to break the mold of exteriors being completely passive aside from hostile elements.Yeti wrote:We have enough friendly npc locations in the wilderness here already
(plus, anything that makes landscape feel distinct from similar Vvardenfel landscape is good)
Updated, added 2 tombs south of M3A3.

In trying to write up a proposal for [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=24667]Indoril-Thirr Roads[/url], I realized how empty this section is. Look at this map:
[url=http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g103/Gnomenator/OthrensisThirr.png~original][img]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g103/Gnomenator/th_OthrensisThirr.png[/img][/url]
At the moment, with neither Dondril, Roa Dyr nor Old Ebonheart having siltstrider ports, (and I wouldn't suggest giving them any, either), the only logical siltstrider route in that whole map would be Almas Thirr - Othrensis - Almalexia; in other words a straight line.
There is no silstrider destination to the north, and the only candidates for destinations to the south -- at least going by current plans -- would be Nav Andaram, the Hlaalu player stronghold, which is not built at the start of the game and which the Indoril don't overly appreciate when it is built; and Aldmar, a Dres location.
In other words, the eastern bank of the Thirr River is currently almost literally flyover country; players using the travel network would just skip over it.
A further implication is that players walking along mainroads won't ever see any settlements, aside from Dondril, Roa Dyr (which is not strictly speaking along a road, and is not strictly speaking a settlement) and the odd shack. And that the player would not be able to find any services without going to the edges of the region, with the two above exceptions, which offer very limited services.
There are no fields either, which at least would indicate human settlement, nor are there any surface dungeons which, while they aren't as vital for the TRV, at least provide the player with something to do or look at. (There is one Daedric ruin, but it would not be anywhere near a mainroad).
To compare, in the [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=24291]Master Plan[/url], Attachment B is a rough map of settlement density. It shows a variegated map in which the population density is highest around the Thirr River Region and lowest around -- for instance -- Telvannis. It is obviously a rough map we do not need to follow, but I think TR's extreme of having -- on average -- the same population density from Telvannis to Roth Roryn is not a better alternative.
Adding any of the above would require work and time, naturally. (Mainly in NPC work, and maybe interior work, though the latter depends on several factors). And I'm not actually suggesting we do any of it now.
What I am suggesting is that we continue as planned, probably make one or two releases, and then at a later date -- perhaps if we ever get a lot of enthusiastic NPCers/questers, perhaps when we tackle Inlet Bog -- we populate this section. I'm mainly writing this now to point out that there is a problem, and give people plenty of time to mull over how we should go about solving it.
