Introduction
I saw this mod a long time ago but couldn't add it to my modlist because was SSE only, so i decided to backport it myself as i'm trying to learn mod development.
The mod is quite simple: it adds a bunch of books to read which brings some lore-friendly backstories around the daedra Azura and a new necklace wearable and craftable.
Note: I just copy pasted the texts of books, any spelling mistake was already part of the original. I intentionally ignored the CK spelling corrections.
Note2: This is the latest version, specifically the "leveled lists" one (which means it doesn't touch any cells to avoid conflicts). I won't port other versions.
IMPORTANT: Because this mod touches leveled lists you need to make a bashed patch, you can learn how to make one with this GamerPoets video.
Mod requires Skyrim.esm, Dawnguard.esm, Hearthfire.esm, DragonBorn.esm, Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.
Making process and documentation
- I rebuilt the esp from scratch using Tes5Edit: didn't drag and drop, but created each record clean new and manually inserted the same data inside to preserve the correct Form 43 plugin.
- Assets were backported using Cathedral Assets Optimizer (found on SSE page but works with any Bethesda game) which neatly repackaged the bsa.
- Used the Creation Kit to edit the books text as Tes5Edit didn't allow me to copy and paste.
- Skyrim Creation Kit - Creating a custom book by LouisAT444 - Useful quick video about creating books.
- Creation Kit (Book Formatting) by Darkfox127 - A good detailed video about Book Formatting in the CK.
- Reddit post about backporting mods - Useful Information on the correct procedure to take in order to backport.
- Cathedral Asset Optimizer - Tutorial by Gamerpoets to port mods from LE to SSE (used in reverse here).
