Version 1.82
Fixed the rear fence LOD.
Added a sniper nest to the top of the clinic.
Removed the park near John's shack as the layout was a placeholder. The park structures are now distributed among the backyards of the ruined houses.

Version 1.81
The main sign now has an LOD mesh.
Fixed the Buffalo Killer FP mesh.

Version 1.80
Performance improvements. Removed a lot of things in hopes to improve performance.
A new game is recommended for this update.
Version 1.79
Re-did a few things so it doesn't make the town entrance feel so claustrophobic and cluttered. The doctors shack was now relocated to a building next to the detective agency and the brahmin pen was moved to an area on the edge of town. Should also reduce the junktown criticism the mod had.
Even more attempts at improving performance.
Rick rentals now has a new sign. If it looks better or worse is up for debate but this one is more performance friendly as it reduces the signs object load by half.
The Westside Butcher case file in the agency terminal can now be properly accessed.
Some other misc changes and fixes.
Version 1.78
Performance improvements hopefully. Tried making more static collections to reduce per object load. Will experiment with these further.
Fixed the overbright glowmap issue.
Fixed the Arthur Morgan teddy's broken hat mesh.
Added a glowmap to the Arnold teddy.
Version 1.77
New RDR2 teddy bear easter egg.
Decent performance updates.
The large Primm sign is now only 2 statics instead of 9 individual statics.
The spotlights now have merged static fixtures to reduce object load (by 50%). The individual spotlights used 8 objects. Now they use only 4.
Version 1.75
redid the entire detective agency and cemetery exterior area. Longer road and no longer a shack. Interior will be done later.
Some of the detective agency posters now have something written on them so that they appear more like job posters and not appear purely self referential.
Version 1.70
New signs with proper glow maps.
New teddy bear easter egg.
Minor optimizations. All textures have proper mip maps as well.
Version 1.65
Performance improvements by combining objects in Nifskope to free up resources.
New Walter White teddy bear easter egg. Might make more in the future.
Version 1.60
Overhauled the lighting inside the detective agency. It was honestly a mess and I'm surprised I didn't improve it sooner. Should look better as a whole now.
Added two new posters to the agency. Improved Scarlett's photo.
Added Scarlett's grave with a flower to the cemetery.
Experimented with glowmaps using what I learned modding Skyrim. The lamp inside the detective agency, the generic hotel lamp... now glows! So do the noir lampposts outside.
Some performance improvements.
The next update will focus around even more optimization. Gonna nifskope some statics to reduce object load. If you wanna volunteer, let me know. Nifskoping for one person is a serious pain.
Some other things I forgot.
Version 1.55
A 'Girls best friend'now has a unique mesh and texture to increase compatibility with WMX.
Added a photo of Scarlett, aka Blake's late wife to the agency. Now she has a face that players can connect to. Blake's memoirs/journal entries are in the works.
Working on new case files for people to read about in the agency. The 'Westside Butcher'and the 'North Vegas Rapist'. WIP.
Improved the aft area of Primm with the bloatflies.
Some typos which were left have been fixed.
Version 1.5
New unique diner sign. No longer individual letters. This was done to improve performance. Have to add a red bulb though so the weird neon S on the top is a placeholder.
New posters for the Detective Agency interior. Pulp noir inspired.
Minor improvements to the rear street and houses area.
Removed the Tenpenny wall near the roller coaster. It was out of place and it didn't align right.
Overall performance improvement.
Version 1.4
Major redesign of the mod. Greatly reduced object load around Primm in an effort to increase performance while maintaining the core of the mod. Changed a few areas with more thoughtful designs etc.
Removed the parking lot and replaced it with an estimate of the cut trees at the front of the Bison Steve. This was done to boost performance mostly and the vanilla wall meshes had seams which I despised.
Corrected some typos in the notes. I may have overlooked some because of the sheer amount of notes added by the mod. Report any typos you come across.
Improved the rear gate and houses at the rear of the town.
Improved Mindy and Mitch's house.
Removed some convict spawns because Uncut Wasteland does something similar. This also boosted performace because of reduced NPC load.
A few other things but I can't remember. I made this over the weekend so I've probably forgotten a few things.
Version 1.3
Added more notes. This time from the perspective of the little girl Amy.
Improved some exterior cells, mainly the rear entrance of the town.
Added a note to the detective agency regarding the UltraLuxe.
Improved some interiors. Added some new statics and new assets.
Version 1.2a

Version 1.2
Complete redesign of the Bison Steve area. Removed the excess clutter to increase performance. The new layout is based on the pre-release footage and is an approximation of the original uncut Bison Steve entrance.
Performance is greatly improved in this update which was a major complaint of the mod.
Replaced some static barrels for non-static ones.
Version 1.1
Major optimizations to the mod. Feedback on performance is appreciated.
Fixed the floating crops issue.
Changed a lot of statics and merged some structures to reduce object load.

A new jailhouse was made near the roller coaster.
The resthouse, jailhouse and detective agency now all have signs.

The detective agency now has a unique noir style poster.
Adjusted some cluter here and there.
Version 0.996
Made some optimizations. The individual wood planks that made up the cafe sign now has textured letters instead to reduce objects loaded in the game world.
Made a new main sign for the entrance. Comment on this if you like this or preferred the old one.
Added some houses to the back of the town, mainly in the cell 'Primm Houses' like Obsidian had originally intended.
The detective agency interior now has it's own music which is a variation of the music which plays outside the agency.
Version 0.995
Some minor bug fixes and optimizations.
Added some more unique music to the mod. The music plays mostly around and inside John's shack. The music is in the style of music found in games like 'Last of Us' and 'This War of Mine'.
Moved some clutter here and there.
Version 0.991
I've tried my best to improve the performance and I'm noticing gains running on my setup. I've removed quite a bit of the excess clutter and also the lantern tree near the brahmin pen along with a few other things. Chances are you probably won't notice any major visual differences but hopefully a performance increase will definitely be noticable.
Very minor exterior edits mostly regarding trees. One circle tree planter was changed.
Some changes to item ownership.
Some minor bugfixes. A few other improvements.
Version 0.985
Replaced all of the round cement tree planters with more appropraite square ones.
Added a new outfit to the detective agency for the player called the Pre-War Detective Outfit. It's based on the Mysterious Stranger Outfit and it gives minor boosts to Perception, Charisma and Guns.
Some minor exterior edits. Added some newspaper dispensers to the detective agency street. Improved the stats of the Sheriff duster you find at the sheriff station (now equivalent to leather armor along with the minor stat boosts).

Compressed the files into a BSA.
Some minor exterior edits.
Replaced the white Tranquility Lane lampposts outside the Bison Steve with new custom ones that better match the colour scheme.
Version 0.98a
Compatibility with Puce Moose's Tales from the Burning Sands. Mindy and Mitch's house was moved to the right and the old destroyed house was restored in it's place which will be handled by Puce Moose's mod. For users without Tales from the Burning Sands, the destroyed house should reappear after a cell reset. Report that this is working would be appreciated.
A small graveyard with dynamic graves was added near the water tower. Now the dead NPCs will recieve a proper burial and new graves should appear once Primm starts to get back on it's feet.
Version 0.98
Ol' John and Little Amy are now proper NPCs and will show up once the casino opens. They are basic NPCs at the moment and have generic dialogue. John will be outside his house and Amy will sandbox around town. They have basic Sleep and sandbox packages.

Improved the exterior of the detective agency (again). More unique lamp posts were added based of the key bridge lights. Now they are dark grey instead of green to blend in better with the noir feel.

The interior of the detective agency has been overhauled and finished. A terminal has been added with case notes. A unique weapon with a unique appearance was also added.
Minor edits to the exterior of the agency. Removed the Sierra Madre poster. Made new lampposts for the mod without replacing the old ones. The white ones didn't fit in so I made new black ones like those seen in classic noir films.
The diner now has a neon sign. I'll add notes to explain who the diner belonged to along with other things in the coming updates.
Rick's corpse should now show up properly.
Version 0.93

Minor improvements to some other exteriors.
Added Rick's corpse to the rear of the town with a note explaining things.
Tried to optimize the mod by reducing some excess clutter.
Version 0.92a

Version 0.92
The NPCs facetints are now packaged properly and will show up properly for the NPCs.

Improvements to the outside of the detective agency.

0.9
A lot of changes, both big and small.
Converted the esp to ESM so that bodies and faces of NPCs aren't mismatched.
Added Mindy and Mitch as NPCs, They are like regular Primm residents at the moment. They'll sandbox inside the Vikki and Vance until 'My Kind Of Town' is completed. They have their own residence.

Blake's has an interior but it's hardly complete. Think of it as an alpha really.
Fixed typos in notes.
Version 0.86a
Added a detective agency called Blake's detective agency. No interior yet. The area it's located at has been given a film noir vibe, or so I've tried. Report performance as it seems to be affecting fps on my machine but I need more people to confirm this.

Moved a few trees and shrubs to fit better.
Rick's rentals now has a note to flesh out it's purpose.
More clutter and some bug fixes.
Version 0.85a

Added a few mobile homes. I'll flesh these out later. They existed to serve as places to stay for the night for those people who lost all they had at Vegas and can't even afford a bed at the commons house. Makes sense huh?
Updated the various teddy bears you find behind the Bison Steve which are doing different things, representing different characters and people. I made these for fun and these are there just for fun.
