What Does Each File Do

This corresponds to Better Cities release v6.1.0 

Better Cities Main Archive
Files in folders beginning with 00, 01 or 02 are the primary files for BC. 
Files in folders beginning with 03, 04 or 05 are tweaks to BC, affecting very specific parts of the mod. 
Files in folders beginning with 06 are intended to try to improve FPS in games where using BC causes the game to run too slowly to play. Weaker computers or heavily modded games might need these. 
Files in folders beginning with 10 are integration files. These are NOT patches, these do NOT deal with compatibility conflicts. Instead, they allow BC to integrate with special features found with other mods so that BC content can work with those special features smoothly. 
Files in folders beginning with 20 or 21 are replacer files. These are NOT patches, but they do deal with compatibility conflicts. The original mod should be installed fully, but instead of using the ESP(s) from the original mod, our versions replace the original ESP(s). 
Files in folders beginning with 30 or 31 are patch files. These deal with compatibility conflicts, and require that the original mod be installed fully, including the ESP(s) from the original mod. 
Files in folders 20 and 30 are not to be used with Open Cities Reborn, unless noted otherwise below. Any reference below to Open Cities Reborn relates to using Better Cities with Open Cities Reborn, not Open Cities Reborn on its own. 
Files in folders 21 and 31 are for the Imperial City only and will work with Open Cities Reborn.

\--- Install Images ---\
Ignore this folder. Contains screenshots used by Wrye Bash and other mod managers during scripted-assisted installation.

\00 Core\
Required - Better Cities Resources.esm 
This is the base file from which the entire Better Cities (aka BC) mod runs. Absolutely everything in this mod requires the ESM, the game will not even start if you try to use part of BC without using the ESM. 
Contains almost all of our base records, all our interiors, most quests, scripts, dialogue, NPCs and AI packages. 

Required - Better Cities .esp 
This ESP enables the game to read our BSA resource files. Without it, nothing from our BSAs will appear in-game, resulting in thousands of missing meshes. Note that there is a space between "Cities" and ".esp" which is intentional. 

Required - Better Cities - Meshes.bsa 
Required - Better Cities - Sounds EV.bsa 
Required - Better Cities - Textures.bsa 
These contain our resource files.

Optional - Better Cities Resources.cfg 
Requires the mod LINK to be installed, otherwise it does nothing. 
This config file is read by LINK, allowing the use of an in-game menu to access Better Cities' configuration options.

Optional - Better Cities Resources.ini 
Provides out of game access to Better Cities’ configuration options. If the file is not installed, then Better Cities will use default options and you will not be able to change these (unless you use the mod LINK).

\00 Core\Docs\
Our Credits, Changelog and the document you are reading are held in this folder.

\00 Core\Docs\Better Cities Patch or Replacer Readmes\
Various readmes relating to our patches and replacers are held in this folder.

\00 Core\Docs\Readmes of Mods merged with Better Cities\
Various original readmes from mods which have been integrated into BC are held in this folder.

\00 Core\OBSE\Plugins\
Optional – Better Cities Helper.dll 
Optional – Better Cities Helper.ini 
Requires OBSE v20+ otherwise it will do absolutely nothing. These two files are an attempt to resolve the rare issue some gamers have where doors which Better Cities has disabled keep getting enabled again. This plugin checks which parts of Better Cities are installed and will only make changes in-game if you are using the parts of Better Cities which require it.

\01 Better Cities\
If you use any one or more of the following files, do NOT use Better Cities Full.esp from the 01 Better Cities Full folder. 
Do not use any of these with Open Cities Reborn. 
Better Cities Anvil.esp
Better Cities Bravil.esp
Better Cities Bruma.esp
Better Cities Cheydinhal.esp
Better Cities Chorrol.esp
Better Cities Leyawiin.esp
Better Cities Skingrad.esp
Each of these overhauls only the single specific city as listed in the filename. 
If you want to use every single city, then rather than use all these files, you could instead use the merged ESP from the 01 Better Cities Full folder.

\01 Better Cities Full\
Better Cities Full.esp
If you use the following file, do NOT use any of the files from the 01 Better Cities folder, and do NOT use Better Cities Open Cities Reborn.esp
This ESP contains every one of the non-IC individual cities merged together. 

\01 Open Cities Reborn\
Better Cities - Open Cities Reborn.esp
Requires Open Cities Reborn.esp from another mod named Open Cities Reborn - the game will not even start otherwise. 
This ESP is especially designed to work with Open Cities Reborn, adding our buildings and NPCs into the redesigned cities from Open Cities Reborn. This is a replacer ESP for the rest of the Better Cities ESPs. 
This does not include our integrated Blood & Mud content – you will still need to install Blood & Mud separately along with Arthmoor’s compatibility patch. 
This does not include our integrated Cyrodiil Rebuild content. 

Better Cities - Open Cities Reborn B&M Compatibility.esp
Requires Open Cities Reborn.esp from another mod named Open Cities Reborn. 
Requires Blood&Mud.esp from another mod named Blood & Mud. 
Requires Better Cities - Open Cities Reborn.esp 
This ESP should only be used if Better Cities – Open Cities Reborn.esp is installed, and if Blood&Mud.esp is installed. Small changes are made to ensure that all these mods work together.

\02 Better Imperial City Full\
If you use the following file, do NOT use any of the IC files from the 02 Better Imperial Districts folder. 
Better Imperial City.esp
This ESP contains every one of the individual IC District ESPs from the 02 Imperial Districts folder merged together.

\02 Better Imperial Districts\
If you use any one or more of the following files, do NOT use Better Imperial City.esp from the 02 Better Imperial City Full folder 
Better Cities IC Arboretum.esp
Better Cities IC Arcane University.esp
Better Cities IC Arena.esp
Better Cities IC Elven Gardens.esp
Better Cities IC Green Emperor Way.esp
Better Cities IC Market.esp
Better Cities IC Prison.esp
Better Cities IC Talos Plaza.esp
Better Cities IC Temple.esp
Better Cities IC Waterfront.esp
Each of these overhauls only the single specific District of the Imperial City (aka IC) as listed in the filename. These can be used in any combination, and as many or as few as desired. 
If you want to use every single IC District, then rather than use all these files, you could instead use the merged ESP from the 01 Better Imperial City Full folder.

\03 Leyawiin Flooded\
Optional - Better Cities - Leyawiin Flooded.esp 
ONLY use this if you are using one of the following files: Better Cities Full.esp, Better Cities Leyawiin.esp 
With this ESP, the water in the eastern district of Leyawiin will be raised as originally designed by Bananasplit, and boardwalk pathways will be enabled. 
If you have toggled Leyawiin to be Open, then this file is not needed at all, the Open version of Leyawiin cannot be flooded due to game engine limitations.

\05 Open Better Cities\
Optional - Better Cities - Open Better Cities.esp 
ONLY use this if you intend to toggle one or more cities to be Open. 
Do NOT use this with Open Cities Reborn. 
With this ESP, NPCs from the original game who live in the cities (excluding the Imperial City) will be given additional AI packages so that they will correctly respond to a city being toggled Open. Edits are also made to the doors within the buildings in each city so they will work correctly when the city is toggled Open. Some other edits to quests and scripts from the original game which are required to ensure a city toggles Open correctly are included as well. These edits will be completely ignored if the related city is not toggled Open, so don't worry if you only want to toggle some of the cities Open, that's fine. 
If you have no intention at all of toggling any city Open, then this file is not needed.

\06 FPS Patches\
Optional - Better Imperial City FPS Patch.esp 
Optional - Better Cities IC Waterfront FPS Patch.esp 
ONLY use one of these, and only if you are using either Better Imperial City.esp or Better Cities IC Waterfront.esp. 
These ESPs remove clutter and plants from the IC Waterfront District, in an attempt to improve FPS. 
Do not install these unless you need them, as they detract from the intended appearance of the Waterfront.

\07 IC Imperial Isle\
Optional - Better Cities - IC Imperial Isle.esp 
This ESP adds the outer walls for the Aristocratic District to the Tamriel worldspace, raising the land height to match that found when within the district. The Arena District walls are extended to match the changes within the district. The aqueduct is added linking the Imperial Isle to the mainland, and the quest to restore the city’s water supply is enabled. 
These edits are kept in a separate optional ESP so that if other mods conflict you can simply disable these changes without losing the actual city content. 
You will need to run TES4LODGen to make the aqueduct Visible When Distant, otherwise it will just be cut off at the border of the furthest-loaded cell in your game.

\10 Cobl\
Optional - Better Cities - COBL.esp 
Requires Cobl Main.esm from another mod named Cobl - the game will not even start otherwise. 
This is an integration file, not a patch, and is NOT required if you use Cobl. Some items added by BC are also found in Cobl, this ESP will tell the game to treat identical objects from each mod as the same, so they will stack together, and if a quest makes use of the item, then it won't matter which mod the items come from. 
Also with this ESP, the wells added by BC to each city can be used as a source of drinking water if you use the survival parts of Cobl.

\10 Enhanced Economy\
Optional - Better Cities - House Price Patch.esp 
Requires Enhanced Economy.esp from another mod named Enhanced Economy - the game will not even start otherwise. 
This is an integration file, not a patch, and is NOT required if you use Enhanced Economy. With this ESP, the cost of purchasing the Bravil Riverside Shack will increase to match the pricing scale of the five different “Enhanced Economy - House prices.esp” which come with Enhanced Economy. If you are not using any of the House prices ESPs from Enhanced Economy, this integration file will not change anything in your game.

\10 MOBS\
Optional - Better Cities - MOBS.esp 
Requires MOBS.esp from another mod named MOBS (Medieval Oblivion Equipment Balance System). 
This is an integration file, not a patch, and is NOT required if you use MOBS. With this ESP, BC weapons will have their stats adjusted to fit with the changes made by MOBS to weapons from the original game.

\10 Storms and Sound\
Optional - Better Cities - Storms & Sound.esp 
Requires Storms & Sounds.esp from another mod named Storms & Sounds – the game will not even start otherwise.

\10 TIE\
Optional - Better Cities - TIE Restricted Area.esp 
Requires TIE.esp from another mod named Tamriel Immersion Experience - the game will not even start otherwise. 
This is an integration file, not a patch, and is NOT required if you use TIE. TIE marks various locations to interiors from the original game where if the player enters them, an NPC nearby will complain and ask you to move away (the same as when you trespass, but instead of affecting the entire interior, it might affect just the area behind the counter in a shop). This ESP marks similar locations to interiors from BC.

\20 Against the Zealots of the Nine\
Optional - JolardHome.esp 
Requires the resources from the mod Against the Zealots of the Nine. 
ONLY use this if you are using one of the following files: Better Cities Full.esp, Better Cities Cheydinhal.esp

Requires the resources from the mod Clocks of Cyrodiil. 
This is a replacer file, not a patch, and should only be installed if you are already using, or wish to install the mod Clocks of Cyrodiil, which makes edits to every city and every IC District, most of which conflict with BC. This replacer file moves clocks in each city and IC District so that they no longer conflict with BC. The newly located clocks are also positioned so that they still look right even when BC is not used, and also works with Open Cities: Outer Districts.

\20 Slofs Goth Shop\
Optional - '''Slof's Oblivion Goth Shop.esp 
Requires the resources from the mods Slof's Goth Shop 1 and Goth Shop 2.

Requires the resources from the mod ICExpand. 
ONLY use this if you are using any part of Better Imperial City.

\21 Mystery of the Dulan Cult\
Optional - The Mystery of the Dulan cult.esp 
Requires the resources from the mod The Mysteries of the Dulan Cult. 
This is a replacer file, not a patch, and should only be installed if you are already using, or wish to install the mod The Mysteries of the Dulan Cult, which makes edits to the IC Market District which conflict with BC. This replacer file moves conflicting objects so that they no longer conflict. As the original mod contains some game-breaking bugs and our version fixes these bugs, it is recommended to use our replacer even if you are not using any part of BC which conflicts.

\21 Old Crow Inn\
Optional - OldCrowInn.esp 
ONLY use this if you are using one of the following files: Better Cities IC Market.esp, Better Imperial City.esp

Optional - 00RBScribeSupplies Intensive.esp 
Optional - 00RBScribeSupplies02, read summary.esp

These are replacer files, not patches, and should only be installed if you are already using, or wish to install the mod Scribe Supplies, which makes edits to the IC Market District which conflict with BC.
