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
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.
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?
wow thanks for doing all that work! I have one question. im interested in replacing the fonts aswell do you know of a way to improve fonts with this mod aswell?
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.
I want to ALSO add something.. if anyone's CTD reading/taking skill book or spell.. its this mod casues it! not better third person/faster-smp or read or take.. it took me a while to figure this out..!

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