Description
===========
A patch to allow everyone to use both The Heart of the Dead and Unique Landscapes Arrius Creek.
Note that you still need to download The Heart of the Dead and Arrius Creek separately. Links are available in the Requirements section.

Details
=======
The Heart of the Dead is a large story-driven quest mod which will add new depth and adventure to your game. Unfortunately, the entrance to one new location happens to get buried underground when used with UL Arrius Creek, preventing you from reaching the door.
Also, a long winding path leading up the side of a mountain in Heart of the Dead happens to be on a mountain which Arrius Creek completely redesigns. Depending on load order, you'll either have the road but many many floating rocks and trees, with many large land tears all around, or you'll have one single land tear right at the top, but the road will not exist and the architecture added by Heart of the Dead will be buried and inaccessible, breaking part of the quest.

This patch very simply adjusts the land height so that the door is revealed and accessible once more.
Then it goes on to recreate the long winding road using Arrius Creek's shaping of the mountain. A bridge had to be added to cross the rapidly flowing stream, but for the most part it's as originally designed by Ravens Eye Productions.

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, place a checkmark beside the .esp file.
3. Adjust load order as follows:
HeartOftheDead.esp
xulArriusCreek.esp
HeartoftheDead-ArriusCreek patch.esp


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


Incompatibility
===============
Should only be incompatible with other MODs which conflict with the The Heart of the Dead at these two locations.
Full compatible with my UL compatibility patch for Country Home and Arrius Creek. Load this patch AFTER my patch for Country Home.

Known Issues or Bugs
====================
None that I know of.
