    I know you have explained the Book Covers Skyrim Updated Redux process multiple times already, and I get that I need to rename the esp in this SkyPatch to match the esp in the BCSUR mod.

    However, what about the other esp files in BCSUR?

    • Book Covers Skyrim Updated0.esp
    • Book Covers Skyrim Updated1.esp
    • Book Covers Skyrim Updated2.esp

    I assume these can be left alone, as it looks like they only exist to load the corresponding BSA files?
    Just want to be sure I understand

      Exactly.

      I find myself in a neverending struggle with the 4096 plugin cap and BCSUR is on top of my s#*! list as it eats 8 plugin slots just to apply a retexture. Do I understand it correctly that - when switching to your mod - if I rename the esp, unpack the BSAs and load them as loose files I can get rid of plugins Updated1-7 on top of discarding all patches' plugins?

      Would the loose files and the renamed main plugin be all that you version needs to work?

    Sorry, I'm new to SkyPatcher stuff. If I install this, I no longer need Book Covers Skyrim patches for other mods and should delete them all? Or am I completely wrong in how this works?

    • All esp patches for the original Book Covers Skyrim containing models and affecting books from
      the main game and the three main DLCs will cause CTD, so they should be removed.
    Even if, say, I disable certain books in SkyPatcher .INI, the books that other patches are already affecting, it will also cause CTDs?
    Because I checked the patches' plugins on xEdit, and they all seem fine; referencing existing records off the replaced Book Covers Skyrim Updated.esp.


    Edit: Yep, CTD. If you have other Book Covers Skyrim patches, you need to turn it off and convert them into SkyPatcher version to use alongside this SkyPatched version.

      Thanks for the info. Now I know why. I am using Porny book covers from Loverslab and I kept getting CTD with this patch.

    I am confused. Book Covers Skyrim is required, but if the .esp is installed, it will cause a crash?

    So if I uninstall all of the other Book Cover Skyrim patches, do I still need Book Covers Skyrim for Book Covers Skyrim - Skypatched or can I just use Book Covers Skyrim - Skypatched?

    Is this useful at all for Legacy of the Dragonborn, which has Book Covers Skyrim included?

      its a pain in the rear as other mods that rely on BCS cant find it in LotD.

    So mods that add new books need a specific Skypatch patch in place of their usual esp patch for "book covers"? Or can you just use the esp patches for these? In my load order that is currently Alchemy Recipe Expansion, Obscure's College of Winterhold and Skyrim: Extended Cut - Saints and Seducers

    Edit: skill books look the part but not giving skill points on read, weird. :|

    Edit 2: Ok, disregard. For some reason Visualize Vanilla shows the books as vanilla, but they work as expected in regular gameplay.

    Man it took me a looooooong while to find out that this mod was conflicting with Legacy of Dragonborn. I have over 1500 mods and for some reason this and Legacy together was CTDing on new game. Not sure if its just me but if anyone else is having problems like mine, there ya go.

      Its probably because LoTD adds the book covers as well. But this Skypatch mod needs the book covers .esp, so LoTD doesnt have it.
