About this mod
I wanted to unlock the chests but the chests weren't there so this solves that

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU ADD THESE PATCHES TO A NEW GAME. To quote robertgk2017 "Modding is illegal post character start." You might be able to get away with it if you haven't entered the cell yet but this is neither recommended nor supported.
These patches require BEES to function properly on older game versions.
All of the patches basically do some combination of three things, either they make sure the key is in an accessible position, ensure the chest is in the correct position and ensure the key will actually unlock the chest.

Q:Do these patches work with my game version?
A:as long as you use BEES you should be fine.
Q:Why does your thumbnails look like you just took Jay's thumbnail and threw a text box over it in PowerPoint?
A: Shh no one can know my secrets.
Q:Why are so many patches missing from old files?
A:Because supporting a FOMOD and a bunch of individual files is a colossal pain especially when everyone just uses the FOMOD anyway.
Q:Wow these patches sure look complicated to do how did you make them?
A:Truthfully it's not that complicated. It took me like an hour to learn the like an hour to learn the CK and to be honest you should already know how to use SSEedit. Janquel's guide is an invaluable resource and without it I wouldn't have known where to even start. If I can do it you can too!
Q:Do you take patch requests?
A:These patches are pretty quick so probably?
Q:You haven't had any recent activity on Nexus and I need to get a hold of you, how can I do that?
A:@ChickenMike in either Ryn, or Janquel's discords and I should see it. I'm also in a bunch of other discords, but I check those two the most regularly.
Q:Why are you missing so many screenshots?
A:I'm lazy and taking screenshots is super tedious and I hate it.
