I am excited about being back. I have no ETA when the mods will be released due to health issues but I am going to keep at it. See you all soon.
Dark Skyrim Overhaul Project
Features
Changes the stats of the Standing Stones to fit more in line with the Oblivion and Morrowind birthsigns.
Adds the Birthsign Stones, Heaven Stones and Rune Stones to the land of Skyrim and Solstheim.
All the Stones have powers that resemble those in Oblivion and Morrowind.
Standing Stones
The Birthsign Stones
Birthsign Stones grant one of several powers specific to that stone. These powers can only be obtained one at a time. You can't have more than one birthsign stone power at a time. The stone effects last 15 minutes but you can have them multiple times a day. The Birthsign Stones have a tall rune-covered monolith in the center of a circle of stones. The Birthsign Stones have a red glow to them and sometimes rare flora growing around them. When you acquire a Birthsign Stone, you do not lose the abilities of shrine blessings or Standing Stone powers.
The Heaven Stones
Heaven Stones, like there Birthsign counterparts, grant one greater power each. Unlike Birthsign Stones, the powers do not replace each other when a new stone is used; one may obtain and keep all Heaven Stone powers by visiting all of them. The Heaven Stones last One hour and look like Birthsign Stones with a red glow. Like the Birthsign Stone, you do not lose the abilities of shrine blessings or Standing Stone powers.
Rune Stone
All Rune Stones bind a weightless armor and weapon, which will disappear after the spell wears off after 5 minutes. There are three different Rune Stones, Reman, Sidra-Ashak and Hestra. Each kind binds a specific weapon and armor to it's kind. Activating the Rune Stone counts as a Conjuration spell and therefor levels your Conjuration skill. The Rune Stones look like the other Birthsign and Heaven stones but has a green glow to it.
Current Issues and To Do List
The bound weapons from the Rune Stones seem to imitate duel weapon animation with the off hand as an invisible weapon. Activating the Rune Stone twice in a row will stack the powers and remove your armor while keeping the spell effect. It does not cause any real issues but it will be fixed when I figure out why it is doing this.
I am working on making the Birthsign and Heaven Stones only work at night according to lore.
I am working on making the Rune Stones only work once a day according to lore.
Provide a list of the location for the stones.
Not compatible with any mod that changes the stats of the Standing Stones. It will need a patch for those mods. This mod adds to the landscape of Skyrim and Solstheim. It may conflict with other mods that add to the same spot. I am not listing any at this point because I don't use all the mods out there and there are way too many to list. As I come across any I will list them. Any patches to make them compatible will need to be made by the respected author of those mods because there are way too many.
None at this point.
Install main file onto your data folder using your favorite mod manager.
Highly recommend Mod Organizer 2.
