Other skills mods

The following skills mods are not covered by the patch in this pack. To use these mods you need to build your own patch here

Stealth Skills Rebalanced

Description: Overhauls the stealth skills
Author: kryptopyr
Optionals: None.

Smithing Perks Overhaul

Enchanting Awakened

Description: Enchanting skill mod.
Author: egocarib
Optionals: Install the all main files.
Special Instructions: Install all relevant patches from the main installer and from the patch pack. Not compatible with the following STEP mods, but their functionality are included in this mod:

• Smart Souls

Bash Tagging Required: (Bash Tagging Guide)

• EnchantingAwakened.esp (Relev, Names, Stats) [relev optional, it adds soul gems to vendors]

TTR Skill overhaul

Description: TTRSO stays close to vanilla and buffs/debuffs perks and balances the skill and magic system.
Author: TheThirdRace
Optionals: None.
Special Instructions: Do a manual install. Install everything. Delete the source folder. You should only use one plugin for every skill you want to use from TTRSO. If you want to use other skill mods for certain skill, do not install the plugin for that skill from TTRSO. From the official install instructions: Each DLC has a suffix associated with it (DG:Dawnguard, DB:Dragonborn, HF:Heartfires) and you need to eliminate the ESPs you can't use by keeping the only file that match the right suffixes. For any combination of DLCs, there is only 1 ESP possible. If a skill doesn't have any ESP with the suffix for your DLC, that means the DLC has no impact on it and thus don't need to be part of the suffix for that skill.

Merging Required: (instructions)

• Merge all plugins except TTR_Skill_Overhaul.esm
• Name the merged file TTR_Skill_Overhaul.esp.
• Name the new mod TTRSO merged. '
• Copy the TTR_Skill_Overhaul.esm and from the original TTRSO mod folder to the new TTRSO merged mod folder.
  
  
• Deactivate the original TTRSO mod and activate the new merged mod

Special Instructions: If you want to use standing stones blessings with more active effects than these i recommend Aurora - Standing stones of Skyrim.

Tweaks

Tweaking the stats

I have previously recommended Better Leveling which is a Skyrim Community Uncapper preset. It is very good and you can still use it if you like to. I have made my own preset which is downloadable from the patches folder in the Dovahkiin reborn section which I recommend. Install as a ordinary mod and make sure it is installed after the community uncapper. It is inspired by Better Leveling but is closer to vanilla. Most skills will level slower than in vanilla except for smithing/enchanting/alchemy that will level faster. Some tweaks have been made to other skills. There is an excellent section on the STEP wiki on how to edit the Uncapper INI yourself if you want to tweak something. You might want to slow down the enchanting abillity if you feel that it is overpowered, I know some people do.

Patches

Conflict resolution

If you install the whole pack except Other skill mods, download the relevant patch from here.
Install the patch and make a LOOT rule for it:
LOOT Rules:

• [patch name].esp Set global priority 990400

If you use TTRSO Light armor, the patch may need to be manually fixed because of renumbering during the merge of TTRSO:

• Open TTR_Skill_OVerhaul.esp and the patch in TES5Edit
• Expand TTR_Skill_OVerhaul.esp/Perk/00051B17
• Drag Conditions/Condition/CTDA-/Perk (Finesse "Finesse" [PERK:xxxxxx]) from TTR_Skill_OVerhaul.esp to the patch
• Close the window and choose to save the patch

If you only install some mods from the pack, or if you install mods from the Other skills section, or if you have other packs installed, please merge your own patch with instructions found here.

FNIS, Bashed patch, Dual Sheath Redux

Make a habit of always rebuilding the bashed patch, running FNIS and Dual Sheath Redux after you have installed/uninstalled mods.

MCM Settings

To make it more user friendly, here is a collection of all in-game settings, MCM settings and console commands in a goggle doc to make it easy to view them on your phone: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-FjQl0COAjeZRrXe6MG_sEpt198aVmmEmTSvikA2Dek/edit?usp=sharing
Please take a glance at all MCM configurable mods that you use. There are several settings and tweaks you might want to use that I haven't brought up due to it not being important to what we intend to do with this pack.

Thanks

This pack used to be a part of a bigger pack that I developed with the help of Nicopad and Garfink. Big thanks to them.
