Description
Detailed Cities is a graphical enhancement modification for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Detailed Cities adds more than 1000 extra assets or modifications to the cities of Skyrim, giving each city a more vibrant feel. Detailed Cities primarily uses assets already in the scene to have as little effect on load times and performance as possible while still providing a substantial increase to believability.

Please note: Though Detailed Cities was not originally made with Dawnguard in mind, this should have no effect on the compatibility with the mod to the game, most compatibility / errors are due to other mods not being compatible with Detailed Cities or vice versa. To troubleshoot this try changing the order in which the mods load.

= Latest Patch Notes v0.30 =
=======================

Riften:
- Added new lighting to Riften, but not so much to take away the sneak shifty look.
- Added artificial light source to true lighting that is there for quests lines I suppose.

Markarth:
- Detailed.
- Corrected artificial lighting source and true light source to give a more realistic light from fires.
- Flora added top half of Markarth in bland areas.
- Added additional light sources to very dark areas.
- Added static objects in bland empty areas.

Fixes:
- Cutting block at the Skyforge
- Some objects not seated correctly.
- Artificial or true light sources with one without the other.

===========
= To Do List =
===========

- Make compatible with Open Cities. (Trees already show up in Whiterun)
- Adding city lights to unnaturally dark areas of the cities (If you have a lighting mod it might have already fixed this).

Hahaha... This mode made my day xD... I've just start a new game with it and the horses with prisoners was flying all around xD! Best mode EVER! Hahaha xD
Btw. In the cities game is sooo lagging with this mode. It's kinda sad... :)

I am sorry to ask, and I assume everyone and their grandma has asked this but are you possibly going to update the nexus version of this mod anytime soon or will you just be focusing on the steam workshops version?

Does this work with Enhanced Cities?

Does it improve all cities/Villages? Great work tho! Agree with LeGRESLEY!

OK.

I love this mod, great work. Ususally there is too much of an overkill on the mods that enhance cities, but this one doesnt overdo it!

Which cities/villages does this improve? A list would be helpful :)

Thanks guys, the idea is to keep the vanilla feel of the game. I am glad everyone can see that and enjoy the mod.
