Daggerfall Workshop Forums

I don't usually come to the forum for detailed discussions of farmland soil consistency.

Spoiler!

Hey, no problem. I'm not a farmer, either. And I tend to sound more definitive than I intend. It's something I'm working on.

Since Uncanny_Valley is not actively visiting the forum for a few months already, i'm thinking how to best manage this mod to keep it updated with newer versions of DU and keep improving it. He originally espressed his desire to see this mod expanded, and - additionally to my improvements - it actually received some commits from a contributor while it was in the main code, so i wonder if it's a nice idea to upload it on github and manage it from there. Since i'm not the original author and it's not my intention to take credits for his work, i imagine it's better to discuss this here before doing anything.

Anyway, i've already updated the mod to benefit from customization and allow user to set their favorite size and shape of grass, this is coming out great
