Open Interior Claims in Khuul

[cire992]

Khuul

Edit- Dave_91: Khuul has been claimed by Hector the Hooded, who is responsible for building both the interiors and exterior. Hector may use this thread for ideas and reference. Also, a note to Hector: I know it may be a fuss, but could you please change any interior cell ID's you've made to the ones mentioned by cire in the claims please? It would make things much more fluent. Thank you.

Edit- Dave_91: If a claim uses the hammock model as used in Morrowind, please use the bedroll model as a temporary substitute until a hammock model is made.

Khuul is a small fishing village in northern Morrowind, but nevertheless it has both a Silt Strider and a shipping port. It is not on the path of the main quest, but can be used to access Solstheim in the Bloodmoon expansion. The town is also easily recognizable due to the impressive natural arch spanning over its inlet and is attractive due to the Daedric ruins nearby. - Courtesy of Wikipedia

The IDs of the cells are as such: Khuul01 = Thongar's Tradehouse (you would stick VvXX in front of that with XX being your modder ID, So I'd put VvC9Khuul01).
I've also posted interior descriptions for these cells. Remember that we are modding a Vvardenfell that is set six years after Morrowind, and some of the interiors look different and/or are inhabited by different people. Nonetheless, the shots should give you a solid idea of the interior layout, as the tilesets we are using in Oblivion are virtually the same as the ones in these shots from Morrowind.
Also, when working with the public Redoran and Shack tilesets use collision mode (F4) to see where any invisible surfaces may be. Seeing as most of the claims work so far has been SilgradTower.esm dependent, you can go ahead and use those assets. Make sure you have the latest version.

[SACarrow]

My suggestion is that all interior cells in a town include the town name or a part of the name that is unlikely to be duplicated. The reason is that if scripts are developed for an entire town, having a common string within the IDs for each cell (int or ext) makes it easier to select the affected cell. I'm pretty sure about this, but you might want to verify with TID or sandor. In this case, that would mean "Khuul" instead of "KL" in the cell IDs.

Thanks,
Steve

[Dave_91]

Hmm... you bring up a good point. We'll see what cire comes up with, perhaps he'll agree with names instead of initials.

[cire992]

I've no problem with that, using initials just helped me with tagging interiors when I was uploading images. I'll change the cell names a little later. Good thinking SACarrow :goodjob:
