Open Interior Claims in Balmora

[cire992]

NOTE: Once we've made some headway with the current listed districts, I'll list the Balmora Manor district and Dunmer temple. When progress is made there, we'll post the temple, garrison, velothi slums and docks.

Edit- Dave_91: If a claim uses the hammock model as used in Morrowind, please use the bedroll model as a temporary substitute until a hammock model is made.

I've pulled up some reference shots from the Morrowind CS for the Balmora interiors. I'm sure most of us have played Morrowind, but these shots should help to save some time.
The IDs of the cells are as such: BalmoraES40 = Vedam Ules' house (you would stick VvXX in front of that with XX being your modder ID, So I'd put VvC9BalmoraES40). ES = East Side district, 40 is the number of the building. Check KuKulza's layout shot to see what I'm referring to.
I've also posted KuKulza's interior descriptions for these cells, you'll find that some of these descriptions are of interiors that look far different from my reference shots. Remember that we are modding a Balmora that is set six years after Oblivion, and some of the interiors look different and/or are inhabited by different people. Nonetheless, the shots should give you a solid idea of the interior layout, as the tilesets we are using in Oblivion are virtually the same as the ones in these shots from Morrowind.

Other notes
Here is a reference thread for Balmora, with the exterior blueprint (which lays out the districts and house numbers), as well as a list describing all of the npcs in the city. KuKulza is the Hetman of Balmora, all finished claims will be reviewed by him.
Also, when working with the public Hlaalu tileset use collision mode (F4) to see where the skirting boards and boots are on the walls. Seeing as most of the claims work so far has been SilgradTower.esm dependent, you can go ahead and use those assets. Make sure you have the latest version.

[Dave_91]

A good thread indeed. Nice layout, looks easy to use. Pinned, and ready for claims. :goodjob:

I'd like to try Rithleen's House, if that's alright? I could get it done by tonight.

[cire992]

Alrighty, I think I'll take the Northeastern guard tower. Oh by the way, how's that Hlaalu Bonemold helm coming? It would be nice if we didn't have to use placeholder guard armor.

[Dave_91]

Yeah I'm going to work on it today, Once I get the texture, it should be near done. It won't need rigging since it'll be a closed helm.

Edit- Once we get a fair few files done, we'll upload them and archive them, then merge as one. If that sounds alright.

[cire992]

Works for me. Great helm by the way, can't wait to see it with the rest of the Hlaalu Bm set. :goodjob:

[Dave_91]

Thank you. Dreading trying to get it to work in game though. But it shouldn't be that hard. I'll need permission from Ghogiel to edit and use his texture as well.

[Hector the Hooded]

I'd actually like to grab a couple of these! Hmm... which ones though?

[cire992]

^ Decisions, decisions. Hey, could you guys could tile up the exteriors of the interiors you (right next to the interior)?

[Dave_91]

Sure I can do that. I can try anyway. I'm not too good with the Hlaalu exterior set because of it being in pieces and all.

[cire992]

Works just like the interior set, just use X64 grid snap.

UPDATE: Alright there's some stuff I need to make for my claim:
furn_de_p_shelf_02 - Done but without a decent texture
furn_de_p_table_06
furn_uni_weaponrack_01
de_p_closet_02
active_de_p_bed_03
Anything else while I'm at it?
