Pssst, you, yes you. Can I tempt you into the dark side?
Version 54 of Gate to Sovngarde has a changelog of 8 pages with a ton of things only available in GTS (at least for now). I've put a crazy amount of work into this. Highlights include... a religion roleplaying overhaul (on top of Pilgrim), new werewolf mechanics, new vampire tweaks, tons of bugfixes, custom Anniversary Edition integrations and more. Enjoy!
Seems like you didn't read the mod page. I'll invite you to watch the video instead, it might make it easier for you to understand that this mod is not "BASiCalLY likE VanilLA": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8gNJ0Ctbf0
And if you can't appreciate the... *checks notes*, dozens of changes including a new voiced character, the new enemy abilities, the journals, new dialogues, and so on and on, then maybe this is, indeed, "not the mod for you".
I still can't kill Cicero and others?
The mod only touches the NPCs that die in the vanilla quest of the same name. Mod is however compatible with Penitus Oculatus that does indeed allow you to kill NPCs not covered in the original quest, like Cicero.
Also for the mission to track the lady or the lizard, you can only choose one?
Alternative way to get kidnappedwithout having to kill Grelod. Naturally, without removing the vanilla path, which is still available.
Innocence Lost - Quest Expansion With this mod, I got grelod arrested and she was killed in prison. What do I do from there? I've been playing a long time after this and not run across these NPC's. Read the description and stickys.
If you've completed "Innocence Lost" but haven't received the letter from the Dark Brotherhood, try entering "setstage DBEntranceQuest 20" in the console.
I installed "Innocence Lost - Quest Expansion" and "Destroy the Dark Brotherhood - Quest Expansion" during an ongoing playthrough. I completed "Innocence Lost" by killing Grelod the Kind at the Riften docks by pushing her into the water.
After that, even after waiting a long time, I never received the "Mysterious Note" from the Courier, nor was I kidnapped by Astrid. I also killed Deekus, Hern, and Ennodius as mentioned in the mod description, but the "With Friends Like These..." quest still didn’t start.
Eventually, I found online that entering "setstage DBEntranceQuest 20" in the console and waiting 24 in-game hours triggered the Courier to appear with the letter. After that, I was kidnapped as expected and was able to destroy the Dark Brotherhood properly.
The letter was never delivered to me, so I had to use the console. For me, it only worked with this code "setstage db02 10" and then "player.moveto 1BDE8".
The quest appears in my journal, but Astrid was silent. I try to speak with her but she continues saying "brother", nothing else. I tried killing the captivities and talk with her again, the quest updates, but she is still speaking "brother" non stop.
To sumarize, the mod didn't work for me, unless I kill Astrid without talking to her, because the only thing she says is "brother".
I had to use the console AGAIN with the code "setstage db02 40". Finally I could get out of the cabin and go to the sanctuary, but as a member of the DB. Not the destroy the DB thing. Or I kill Astrid not talking to her and not killing the captivities.
So I get that this works with Penitus Oculatus, but I also noticed that it seems to remove the ability to hunt down Babette? I know this is weird, but I really liked that PO lets you kill an evil immortal vampire who otherwise escapes justice. These mods are great together so I wish there were a patch for that :(
I'm not sure the mod is working as it is intended. I killed the hag in Riften, got kidnapped, killed Astrid and then I freed the three prisoners. I went to the Penitus Oculatus and the Commander Maro gave me orders to go destroy the sanctuary and even gave me a guard to help out, however there is not update to the quest pointing to what I'm supposed to do next. I get from the dialogue I need to search for the password, but the quest doesn't tell me how or where and it's stucked on talking to Maro.
I figured it out. There were no conflicts between my plugins, but reinstalling the mod folders fixed everything. I think there is a conflict with other mods editing the scripts or seq files.

Astrid after you accidentally kill Agnis, the maid in Fort Greymoor

Too bad. I really hate them and want them all gone, I guess this is not the mod for me.
Thanks for the mod tho!

False.
I would like to ask if you have plans to create a similar mod to combat the Thieves Guild, it bothers me that there is no way to confront them.

Very immersive...
