Description
===========
A patch to allow everyone to use both Better Cities and Unique Landscapes Cheydinhal Falls MODs.
Note that you still need to download Better Cities and Cheydinhal Falls separately. Links are available in the Requirements section.

Details
=======
Better Cities is a compilation of mods which completely overhaul every single city in the game (except Kvatch). It also offers a Blood & Mud version incorporating the changes of Bravil and the new NPCs and quests from Blood & Mud. Better Cities Cheydinhal is slightly unique in that it not only overhauls the city, it also adds a set of waterfalls to the south, with a stream flowing down the hillside into The Reed River. Cheydinhal Falls completely overhauls the landscape north, east and south of Cheydinhal, including a very detailed twisting stream with waterfalls meandering down the hillside south of Cheydinhal.
Unfortunately, as both mods add a stream south of Cheydinhal, using Better Cities with Cheydinhal Falls together causes land tears, massive land height discrepancies to the south of the city, and a LOT of floating rocks and waterfalls!

This patch repairs these conflicts by removing the majority of changes made by Better Cities to the south of the city (compare the two together, you'll soon see that the BC stream is inferior. I can say this, I work on Better Cities!), and fixing land height problems in the city itself.

I highly recommend using a program such as Oblivion Mod Manager (OBMM) or Wrye Bash to adjust load order.
My install instructions will assume you are using OBMM or Wrye Bash, but I expect other load-order programs function the same.


Install
=======
1. Copy the .esp file to (install folder)\Oblivion\Data\
2. Start OBMM/Wrye Bash, place a checkmark beside the .esp file.
3. Adjust load order as follows:
(Blood&Mud.esp) only if using the B&M version of Better cities
xulCheydinhalFalls.esp
Better Cities CHEYDINHAL.esp OR Better Cities Full.esp OR Better Cities Full - B&M Edition.esp
BCCheydinhal-CheydinhalFalls patch.esp OR BCCheydinhalFULL-CheydinhalFalls patch.esp OR BCCheydinhalFULLB&M-CheydinhalFalls patch.esp

None of the patches are dependent on the Cheydinhal Falls ESP, so should work with any language version.
All patches are dependent on their respective Better Cities ESP, and require that the BC ESP name be the same as it was in the BC main archive (as listed above!)

Uninstall
=========
1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s).
2. Delete the .esp file from \Oblivion\Data\


Incompatibility

Will only work with Better Cities v3.3.0+ - earlier versions will NOT work.
