Description
===========
A patch to allow everyone to use both Valley View Estate and Unique Landscapes River Ethe MODs.
Note that you still need to download Valley View Estate and River Ethe separately. Links are available in the Requirements section.

Details
=======
Valley View Estate adds a nice rural mansion and vineyard north-west of Skingrad (acquirable after completing a quest). River Ethe completely overhauls a long stretch of landscape, connecting the river from UL Chorrol Hinterland to the Strid River (south of Skingrad, Kvatch and Anvil).
Unfortunately, using both mods together causes land tears around the Valley View Estate, and also buries sections of the vineyard, and wipes out the path linking the Estate to the road south-east of the Estate's location.

This patch repairs the land tears, restores the land height to the vineyard, and also recreates the path, linking the Estate to another path which runs alongside the River Ethe.

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:
Valley_View_Estate.esp
xulRiverEthe.esp
ValleyViewEstate-RiverEthe 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 Valley View Estate in this location.

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