According to TOYB, Riften needs a thread here so everybody can see the progress on the exterior parts of Riften without worrying about the interior claims.

The Super Über map of Riften



Overview screenshots of Riften




Lots of screenshots of the lower class area of Riften

Looking very good from the map! Good job!
Only problem is I can't access the screens of Riften, it keeps telling me I need to login through your account.

Thankyou Cool My only concern would be the large open area near the great southern gate, it sometimes makes the area feel quite empty. Obviously I can't put stuff in front of the gate, perhaps building a larger gatehouse that extends into the courtyard area or widening the road leading from the front of Riften to the lower class area and placing houses along it would help.

Also I will re-texture the roof on TOYB's vernim wood inn and use it to make Siegfried's tavern blend in. Oh and should Riften have any sort of Religious buildings? and if so what type?

For the big open area, you can use something like Anvils tree circle. For religious buildings, I think you should, but I know nothing about the lore.

For a religious building I think it would be best to make it part of the castle.

I don't want you using the vernim wood inn, even with a retex. There is plenty of buildings that are already there you could use as inns/taverns.

I would also like to add that Zarf is still making a gate, which has to be in the southern part of Riften.

It already has an interior (and a nice one at that) it would be a shame to throw it away.

The gate at the moment is a placeholder

Sorry it has to go to waste, but really if there wasn't guidelines and things such is this Riften would still be built in Bruma, fort tileset, Stock OB lower class and the the Riften set, sucking uniqueness out of every where.

If you can name a suitable lower class building that will match the Riften set without using one that is already being used as a tavern within Riften, I will happily use it Wink

How many taverns do you already have, and what meshes are they using?

I have 1 lower class tavern using the 1SKxxAAxRiftenLC7 Mesh, it must be a lower class mesh in the RiftenLC set and have enough room for three bedrooms.

But like you said you already have an LC tavern, why not have a UC or MC tavern?

I think some trees or a small park with benches etc. would be cool at the southern gate.

Yep. I made a Tower for Sale ages ago. Check out the thread in the Riften Claims section of the forums. Plenty of pics and .esps (though the pics are pretty small...)

Well, the castle's done as far as the exterior goes (you can see it on the map and in screenies.) The UC district is also done(the thing you first see when you enter Riften, just east of the castle.)

They were the original interiors Seigfried put up in the Riften Claims forum. I'm not too sure about castle interiors though.

The UC district has changed a bit since those claims were put up, new claims probably need to be put up and some of the current claims need to be reworked slightly.

It's on the heightmap. Alasdair tried merging the interiors in the last master file but some where buggy (not sure of the specifics.) No AI yet and hardly any NPCs AFAIK.
