Description
This is the file used to make edits to the Armun Ashlands region, for inclusion into the Dominions of Dust release. It contains most of the region, up to but not including the Velothi Mountains border with Skyrim.
Section discussion thread (missing link)
Workflow
This is the file where dialogue, quests, and claims for Armun Ashlands should be merged. Do not edit this file without also loading TR_Mainland.esp, and do not merge other esps into it without also loading TR_Mainland.esm! See: Editing guidelines
Always use the newest Tamriel Data and the latest Data Addon from GitHub with release files.
Development Plan
Relevant queues: Armun Ashlands
Last updated: 2021-11-24
Assets: The Baluath crossbow artifact still needs to be made. Unique environmental assets would be nice to differentiate it from vanilla ashlands like ashland flora, termite mounds, ash larvae (Dune ref: sandtrout); whatever works.
Exteriors: Improvements could be made to more barren areas.
Interiors: Done.
Quests: Any quests that rely only on this section should be merged. Several, including Lost in Transit and the Baluath questline, traverse multiple sections and have to wait for a DoD section file merge.

Dropping for now, will wait
Dropping for now, will wait for when it passes the TD8 testing. And also not to hog the file. One thing to note is the border with OW in the south is very very verrrrry WIP, and I want to finish it up later. Was just working on the border that got messed up when the cells got merged in, and trying to make the region not be so flat. Some things are like I say WIP, here is everything that I have done since I got the file signed out:
- border matching
- fixed the typo for Atriban Deras' banner
- some detailing/decluttering of certain parts of the western side of the ashlands
- making the terrain more interesting where I can
- made the streets of arvud terrain
- started work on OW cells (used for showcasing one day hopefully)
- added the new dwemer outpost in the south (the not named yet Bazak, Dwemer Checkpoint)
- cleaned all T Data dirty edits in the file
in the future I hope to finish the border, complete the OW cells as more assets come in, continue with detailing, or removing some detail, make terrain less flat, add a few more dungeons, add more fauna and flora, add some more volcanic activity, bug fixing and fix something about a note in the ancestral tomb someone told me about.

That last update borked quite a few things in arvud that need fixing. Also not a fan of the well placement.T_Mw_Fau_GuarHrn_0100000003 Arvud (-4,-26) -28351 -210099 488 "guar in wall"

Taking for more Baluath prep.
- Merged Baluath latest
- Merged Baluath latest rumors and scout/scholar vampire lore shared between Baluath and Orlukh.
- Reorganized Arvud rumors due to how many there are now. One of them I made specifically for Halfbert because he was only ever giving the vanilla Nerevarine rumor. A few rumors were unlocked to non-Dunmer, and everyone has a slight chance of giving vanilla rumors like most other towns.
- Gave custom IDs to the ladder in Malawius Camp, Addun's Yurt and the small chest at the caravan camp ruins nearby.
- Redid levels and IDs for some Baluath vampires and added them to the clan faction.
- Fixed all but 4 reports from https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/bugtracker/some-armun-ashlands-landscape...

Dropped. Added five small
Dropped. Added five small Ashlander firepit camps in the following exterior cells:
Mount Ammu (empty)
[-15,-22] (3 occupants: TR_m4_Malinu_Ashi-Iddan, TR_m4_Ilu_Ashumalli, TR_m4_Tinti_Elarrapal)
[-11,-25] (2 occupants: TR_m4_Ziddak_Assalatamm, TR_m4_Benundi)
[-9,-23] (1 occupant: TR_m4_Galmas_Nerendus)
[-13,-27] (1 occupant: TR_m4_Salanit_Gilu)
I am saving the Mount Ammu one for the Baluath questline. There will be two Ashlanders who are enabled there when the cattle herding quest is started, to ensure that it can be minimally completed for murder hobos. Please leave it empty (occupants are hunting, etc. on other occasions).
Dropped. - Fixed IDs with
Dropped.
