Name: HESU The Poison Swamp Patches
Version: 1.4
Date: 10/13/2015
Author: mhahn123



Change Log from v1.3 - 08/2021
==================================

1. Added a new patch for Random Ruins of the 1st Era. Fixes issues
   with the Ancient Argonian Ruin.

2. Minor update for both of the UL Blackwood Forest patches.

3. Minor update for the MTC Expanded Villages patch.

4. Added a 3 way patch for Better Fort Blueblood + UL Blackwood Forest


Description
===========

There are compatibility patches included for the following mods. Listed
in the order that BOSS will sort them. 


1. Dwarves of the Mountain
2. MTC Expanded Villages
3. Random Ruins of the First Era
4. The Other Spheres
5. Better Forts (Fort Blueblood)
6. UL Blackwood Forest

Note: Better Fort Blueblood borders Poison Swamp, but through pure luck the
      two have no problems. Issues only arise when UL Blackwood Forest is in
      the mix. So there is only the 3-way patch for that scenario.
 

Details
===========

There are several mods converging on this game location alongside of HESU. And
they tend to overlap one another as well as overlapping HESU. For this location
at least, I was able to engineer most of the patches to play nicely with one
another. To do that, content from the conflicting mods was moved to alternate
locations. Each patch in different cells around the swamp. In theory you should
be able to use most of them together. There is a combo patch available for the
one case that required additional solutions.


Location
==========

Varies from patch to patch.
