I mean, TES lore is designed on purpose to be inconsistent. It allows for retcons without invalidating fan works. Todd's Vision for TES is totally different than Julian's, and the games before Redguard should honestly be considered as a different franchise at this point. At least the current lore masters agree that what you see in game does not equal what real Tamriel is. But this is a discussion for some other thread.
The reason I'm making Cyrodiil as a jungle is because Tiber didn't CHIM it away until the end of the 2nd era, after the period Elder Kings is set in. Also, we never see a jungle cyrodiil represented, nor the 7 islands imperial city, both which I'm keeping in my map (the IC mesh actually does fit on the 7 islands look). If you prefer the modern look of Tamriel, don't worry, because I'm making 3 versions. The mix between old and new is why it's time consuming, I have to do a ton of research and consultations from various communities, while making both maps at the same time to merge later.
I would talk about it more in the discord, but the devs I guess don't appreciate me talking about it there and I left after they muted me and deleted my posts without warning when I replied to people about it. I get the feeling they don't even like me making this for them, which is disheartening but I continue because multiple people have shown support on this project. Once I finish the map, hopefully within the next month, all three versions will be uploaded to the steam workshop, along with 3 versions of my music mod and an "all in one" mod which will later include nomadic Khajiits if I can figure that part out. Whether or not it appears in the official mod is up to the devs, I'm just taking on projects they refuse to do because of the workload and I have nothing better to do.
