Workflow

This is the file where dialogue, quests, and claims for Armun Ashlands should be merged. Do not edit this file without also loading TR_Mainland.esp, and do not merge other esps into it without also loading TR_Mainland.esm! See: Editing guidelines
Always use the newest Tamriel Data and the latest Data Addon from GitHub with release files.

Development Plan

Relevant queues: Armun Ashlands

Last updated: 2021-11-24
Assets: The Baluath crossbow artifact still needs to be made. Unique environmental assets would be nice to differentiate it from vanilla ashlands like ashland flora, termite mounds, ash larvae (Dune ref: sandtrout); whatever works.
Exteriors: Improvements could be made to more barren areas.
Interiors: Done.
Quests: Any quests that rely only on this section should be merged. Several, including Lost in Transit and the Baluath questline, traverse multiple sections and have to wait for a DoD section file merge.

  • fixed Some Armun Ashlands Landscape Bugs v3
  • fixed Incorrect Dialogue for Mibdinahaz
  • NPCed + pathgridded Mashanuad, Naarshamsi, Shan-Ahhe, Nurshadit, Kurhu (bandit cave w/ shop); left Ghundabalit Egg Mine empty -- Dillon can NPC it with vampires in the Baluath file
  • added a tiny ruined interior for the sunken Daedric ruin in -15,-23 named Mashadananit
  • named the Bazak interior and NPCed it
  • fixed a dialogue bug in Vendel Othreleth quest in Arvud

Quick take and drop.

  • Removed inner statue from Mashadananit, Shrine since it already has one outside (discussed with Rats).
  • Renamed it Mashadananit, Molten Halls since there's no shrine inside.
  • Moved vampires within cell in Arvs-Shadan so you can talk to one of them before opening the door.
  • Added key to their cell door for quest.
  • Fixed conditions for Olmas Uvayn greetings.
  • Renamed TR_m4_Bal_LairVaultPillow to TR_m4_Bal_LairUp4Pillow for consistency in quest file.

Quick edit to fix a bunch of missing References Persists checkboxes for Baluath questline.

Also fixed a missing quotation in a result script that Jani reported on Discord.

A few more references persist

Dillonn241's picture
  • A few more references persist for Baluath.
  • Addressed all instances of "Ushu-Kur Iron Mine" to align it with cell name.
  • Fixed https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/bugtracker/stray-guar-collection-dialogue-could-be-handled-more-smoothly
  • Minor overhaul of stray guar quest to reduce it to a single journal id and make the dialogue more natural.
  • Made all Ishanuran NPCs have alarm 90. It was 0 before and they would let each other get murdered.
  • Changed two Volenfaryon alarms: Ahaatu 0->100 (match other tribe members), Yelnul 90-> 0 (slave doesn't care like other one)
  • Fixed https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/bugtracker/path-grid-issues-armun-ashlands-interiors. Double checked all Arvud and yurt interiors, too, since Jonado said he didn't.
  • Minor grammar fix in stray guar little advice response (there's -> there are, Ashlands -> ashlands).
  • Fixed https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/bugtracker/topic-someone-particular-missing-arvud. Added 2 generic and 3 unique responses.
  • Fixed https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/bugtracker/bugs-visitor-known-vendel-othreleth
    • I simply deleted the line because the correct one already existed. Also renamed the topic "lady Balvene's jewels" to "bag of jewels" so that it could fit into her dialogue as a linked topic.
    • I could not figure out what problem there was with Armas Tyravel's greeting. He only says it the first time you talk to him and reverts to generic greetings after that. I went ahead and added a modified greeting that works for all outcomes of the Vendel Othreleth quest after journal index 120, since you don't have to speak to Armas at all and his original greeting would sound out of place. I suppose his greeting could become unique again after finishing both quests, but it seems a little extra.
  • Moved the follow-up greeting from Uvayn Guard 3 (the one that forcegreets you) to Greeting 5 so that he can arrest you after giving his quest update.
  • Added missing dialogue response for Balvene Uvayn's 'Vendel Othreleth' topic for journal index 160 (Vendel is revealed and she rewards you). Resulted in unclickable blue link before.
  • Cleaned out Data object edits

Quick grab & drop to keep the bugtracker clear for this section.

  • Fixed https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/bugtracker/armun-ashlands-double-typo
  • Condensed logic for duplicate lines w/ different filters in "Armun Ashlands" topic (4 identical down to 2).
  • "far away tribe" -> "faraway tribe" in 'Ahemussa camp' topic.
  • Added small path grid to Ashlander outcast camp at [-15,-23]. Helps make Baluath quest 2 less AI error prone.
