Feel free to let me know if either WACCF or Thaumaturgy is updated, on the off chance I don't notice right away due to playing the game lol, and I will update the patch.
Hi, thanks for the up to date patch for these mods. There is something im curious about, i was comparing your patch with kryptopyr's Patch Hub's one and noticed your patch doesn't have any Leveled item records contrary to krypto's one. Is there a reason for this? All the other records seems fine and your one is definitely up to date except Leveled items which Thaumaturgy does have some conflicts with WACCF. I know these minor conflicts won't blow up my game but was just curious about what kept you from patching these record. Thanks for the patch non-theless
Thanks for mentioning this. This was the same as with the formids I just forwarded, after swapping to using LOOT with custom rules, and I realized it loaded WACCF below Thaumaturgy. When I made the patch I was just manually ordering my LO and I place Thaumaturgy below WACCF and then Open World Loot below Thaumaturgy with my own patch for it, so I did not need a patch between WACCF and Thaumaturgy for Leveled List since load order + OWL solved it.
I will upload a new version of the patch today, with the leveled list added, for those who need it in the patch.
I forwarded some Thaumaturgy enchant Formids to this patch in my 1.4.5a version since I just realized that LOOT places WACCF below Thaumaturgy(I only just swapped to using LOOT with custom rules). This technically does not need a patch as it is no issue if you load Thaumaturgy below WACCF. However, given that LOOT defaults to having WACCF below Thaumaturgy a lot of people who use LOOT may need it in the patch without realizing.
I'm curious as to why you kept the vanilla names of items WACCF adjusted. Like, you mention doing this in the description, but if the user (me) were using WACCF untouched, this presents inconsistencies with a lot of equipment. (For example, the player would find 'Steel Gauntlets' when not enchanted, but 'Steel Nordic Gauntlets' when they appear enchanted. Just wondering the thought process behind that choice.
Edit - Updated with merged Thaumaturgy and WACCF names.
The main reason was because Thaumaturgy changed a lot of enchantment names and in many cases actually removed or replaced the enchantment entirely, so I didn't want to copy over incorrect names from WACCF for the enchantments. An example of the second case would be something like "Steel Gauntlets of Minor Archery" in WACCF becomes "Steel Nordic Gauntlets of the Minor Pugilist". Essentially my dilemma was to have either naming inconsistences for the actual items using Thaumaturgy names, or have incorrectly named enchantments using WACCF names. I suppose I could manually rename each item to use WACCF item base name + Thaumaturgy enchantment name. That would be the best solution, though it will take quite awhile to do as it's literally thousands of items, many of which aren't even conflicting with WACCF. I will consider doing it, it just might take a bit.
Came here to say the same thing. You should not have a replacer ESP because Thaumaturgy has lots of other stuff in it and if it gets updated this mod will be instantly obsolete. I suggest you re-release this as a patch. Also, there are several WACCF patches already created by kryptopyr (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/19518?tab=files).
It is re-uploaded as an esl, I was wrong about my assumption that it would be too large to be flagged as esl. The only problem with the patch on kryptopyr hub is it isn't up to date which was the main reason I made this patch. In addition I also added extra things to the patch besides merging/resolution of the conflicted records between the two mods.
P.S. I would still wait to use the patch until updated when Thaumaturgy has any major update even though it is no longer a replacer plugin. It likely won't cause any direct issues, but it would overwrite any new or updated enchantments on items with older ones.

Thanks for the updated plugin!
