2. INSTALLATION

Solace Antrum can be installed in a variety of ways. It's really your choice. This mod includes everything it needs, so there is no need to find and download other mods to support this mod at the moment. This package includes the .esp and a script folder. BE SURE TO MOVE BOTH!

- Nexus Mod Manager Install (Recommended):
1. Download the mod from the Nexus through the direct to manager route.
2. Open the Manager which should show the progress of your download.
3. When download is complete, enable Solace Antrum from your mods list.

If you download the .rar manually, you can add it to the Nexus mod manager by opening the manager and clicking "Add mod from file" on the mod tab and from there selecting this mod's .rar that has been downloaded.

- Steam Workshop Installation (Recommended):
1. Find Solace Antrum on Steam and download it. (Chances are you're not going to see this if you DL this mod off Steam).
2. The mod should automatically be downloaded and automatically updated as releases are made through Steam.
3. Tick to enable the mod from the launcher.

- Manual Install:
1. Download the .rar package containing this mod.
2. Extract files from .rar temporarily to a folder on desktop.
3. Open the folder and move the data folder into your Skyrim installation directory.
> This directory can normally be found at by Steam installation at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim
or at a custom installation directory
4. Merge the data folders together.
5. Open the Skyrim Launcher and tick the box next to the SolaceAntrumCaveHouse.esp to enable it.
6. Play Skyrim

3. LOCATION

The Solace Antrum can be found up the north side of the riverbank to the west of Dragon Bridge. It can be spotted by a rock cairn and a noticeable path. Some way down there are lanterns, so it shouldn't be hard to spot upon passing it. It just stems off the original dirt path to the west of Dragon Bridge and actually crosses the river's waterfall.

4. HELP

If you have a problem, please let me know on the support page on the Nexus or on Steam Workshop. Letting me know any concerns or errors, or even just suggestions you have for me can allow me to change and/or fix things.
