Thieves Guild "Former Glory" Enhancement

*UPDATED to v1.5.1* Thanks for 20k Subs!!!

== DESCRIPTION ==

In my opinion restoring the thieves guild to vanilla former glory was extremely underwhelming. One of the things that aggravated me the most was that although the thieves guild becomes rich, the vault room never fills back up. Shouldn't the thieves guilds vault room fill with riches as your guild becomes more wealthy?

If you agree and want this change look no further! As the thieves guild gains presence in major holds and "levels up" so shall the Vault room! I did not just do the vault room, I have made tons of minor changes to the entire guild hall (more food, more alchemy ingredients, more clutter). All of these changes slowly make themselves more present as you level up your guild.

== HOW IT WORKS ==

You are prompted to complete small jobs (radiant quests) for Delvin and Vex in 5 main cities in Skyrim in order to gain "presence" in every city. The point of gaining presence is to restore the thieves guild back to its former glory. After you complete 5 radiant jobs in ONE city (doesn't matter which one), you will do a final mission for that city. Once you complete that mission your thieves guild will "level up". You do not need to complete the jobs in Riften because the thieves guild already has presence in Riften. You will notice small changes made by Bethesda when your thieves guild levels up, all I have done was add more changes to each level up. Since there are a total of 4 final missions, (4 main cities) your thieves guild will level up 4 times.

== WHAT I CHANGED ==

The treasure room is traditionally locked with two keys. Those keys will spawn on the guildmasters desk so this mod is lore friendly. Inside the vault room you will find that as you level up your guild, a lot of items and treasures will spawn. A lot of the items that will spawn are static items (cannot be picked up or moved) so it prevents the room from being ruined. That being said there are still some items you can grab. Note that the reason the items are static is because I did not fill this room with items so that you can just take them all and sell them. Also the items you can take are not game breaking/OP by any means. This mod is strictly for aesthetics. There are some other mods that do similar things to this mod but in my opinion they are game and immersion breaking. I have added a note found on Mercer's desk as to where he hid some of the vault treasure. Besides the treasure room, I added things like more food, some more bookshelves, more weapons in the armory, alchemy ingredients, clutter, etc.

This mod is probably compatible with all other mods, unless they spawn items in the exact same places.

== FAQ ==

Q: If I did the radiant quests then install this mod, will the treasures spawn?
A: Right now from my testing my answer is yes, but people have been saying that it does not spawn unless you haven't done the quests prior to install. I am trying to fix this, if anyone is willing to help that would be great.

Q: Will the vault look full during the scene where Brynjolf takes you through the vault right after Mercer robs it?
A: No. The treasure now despawns before that quest and will respawn later.

Q: Why is my vault door locked even after I have done every quest?
A: The door unlocks during The Pursuit. If you haven't done that quest it wont be open. This mod also doesn't actually fiddle with the locking mechanism of that door. I just put the keys on the table for realistic lore sake, they aren't actually linked to the door.

There are many small changes for you to appreciate if you install this mod. I hope you enjoy it!

*changelog v1.5.1

*Hey guys so I know its been a while since I updated but I have been playing recently and wanted to change a few things. Here are the changes:
- I added a lot of EEC boxes and barrels around to make things look more full (in and outside the vault) and some more clutter in the vault room
- I added the rest of "gallus' plans" on some of the locations he was wanting to heist before mercer stole them all
- Delvin's finally found the right shipment of Furs (not firs) and the rest of it is in the vault room
- I expanded a dead end tunnel and added a large mead barrel and some cups
- i added a note found on mercers desk that says where he hid the rest of his treasure (i might work on a small quest that will allow you to go actually get it and have it retrived) right now it is just for lore sake so the vault filling back up does not seem so fake
