The cantons of Vivec, the largest "city" in Morrowind, but for all their grand size and scope, the actual exterior of this major metropolis often feels a bit lifeless.
Enter today's Mod of the Day, which today is Bustling Vivec by Ashstaar, a simply gorgeous and atmospheric city overhaul for Vivec that aims to make the city feel more alive, by adding in lots of new clutter, detailing, and NPCs.
Now you'll find outdoor markets, cafes, bakeries, and various merchants hawking their wares along the walkways and streets of Vivec, as well as immersive and scenic new additions, like graffiti, cargo containers, and lots and lots of new banners.
Each canton has been given a bit of unique detailing, so each one feels a bit more distinct, and the temple, in particular, has seen a gorgeous makeover, with a number of new statues, shrines, and banners to give it a more epic-looking feel.
All in all, there are a lot of Vivec overhauls out there, but this one provides a fairly lightweight alternative that still manages to look absolutely amazing, and provides a huge improvement for the city!
