0. Version History

Version 1.01 (Update):

- Fixed some dialogue bugs, which appeared when talking to Nobby about "game of
dice".

- Altered a greeting line, where the player was being referred to as "Nimrod
Flamehair" ;-)

- Corrected some typos and spelling errors resulting from the fact that English is not my native tongue.

- Improved the script for the tavern fight, so that an accidental hit within five
seconds after the end of the tavern fight has no further consequences than a very
short fight of less than five seconds. After that time the opponent stops the fight
again.

- Removed an object in the enchantment list which was not used.

- Removed a script which was not used.

- Slightly modified a journal entry to make a certain quest easier for the player.

- Updated the known issues section of this readme.




*********************************************************************************

1. Features

This plugin adds a new tavern near Ebonheart, including new characters, objects, dialogue, live music and new mini-quests. You will have the opportunity to buy the
tavern know as the Broken Drum! As owner you will have certain new options. The
whole mod is inspired by Terry Pratchett's "Discworld" books, so if you're familiar
with these books, you will encounter well-known characters...This is primarly a "fun"
mod, I tried to stay as close to Morrowind lore as possible, while trying to merge
some aspects of the worlds of Tamriel and Discworld as seamlessly as possible.

*********************************************************************************

2. Installing the Plugin and Savegames

Extract the rar-archive to your Morrowind/Data Files
folder and you shouldn't encounter any problems. Some
files may already be present on your harddrive, you can
simply overwrite them or keep the old files.

This plugin should not invalidate your savegames. If you load
a savegame made during this plugin was activated without having
the plugin activated, you may encounter some error messages, but
you should be able to play on without further errors.

*********************************************************************************

3. Playing the Plugin

Go to Ebonheart. On the north road you will see a new building called "The Broken
Drum". This tavern is open from 12:00 to 02:00 AM. Inside you will meet many new people...talk to everyone! And stay for some time, you may witness some unusual
and/or funny  events...

*********************************************************************************
4. Cleanness, Known Bugs and Issues

- The framerate may drop if your computer isn't very fast,
especially during some scripted events.

- If you hit any of the guests while the tavern fight
is just ending, they will continue to attack you for only about five seconds.
If this should not work, click on the guest and enter
"StopCombat" (without "") in the console.

- You may encounter problems during the fade-out of the screen when taking training lessons in the Broken Drum. If so, just hit "t" and wait for an hour.

- Moving around in the Broken Drum may prove difficult during certain hours of the
day. But then again, isn't it always difficult to move freely in bars? :-) Try RA in
the console...

- This plugin was cleaned with TESAME, except for

       - 4 exterior cells
       - 1 interior cell ("Ebonheart EEC North Warehouse")
       - "Greeting 0" dialogue greeting
       - "latests rumours" dialogue topic
       - "Background" dialogue topic
       - "my trade" dialogue topic
       - "beds" dialogue topic
       - "skooma" dialogue topic

no original items/objects were changed.
All new items/objects begin with "00_jh_bd_***".
