REQUIREMENTS The following mods are required in order to use this mod:
INSTALLATION Before installing this mod, go to aMidianBorn Book of Silence SE and install the CCOR CONTENT ADDON file. This is the ONLY file you need to download from the aMidianBorn Book of Silence page. It includes all of the textures from Book of Silence (Armors, Weapons, Creatures, Unique Items, and Dragonborn textures), as well as the texture variations needed for the Content Addon file.
Once you have installed the Book of Silence CCOR CONTENT ADDON option, then install this mod and enable both the aMidianBorn_ContentAddon.esp and the aMidianBorn_ContentAddon.bsa. These are the only aMidianBorn plugin and archive you should have in your load order.
Enjoy and please remember to endorse the wonderful work done by CaBaL and the AMB team!
This mod should work with most mods that change the armor meshes, as long as the altered meshes are designed to work with the vanilla textures.
This mod edits a number of Leveled Lists in order to distribute the new armor varieties; these changes may need to be merged with other mods that edit leveled lists.
This mod also makes changes to the Companion's quest "Take Up Arms" and may conflict with other mods that change this quest (USSEP changes to this quest have been included).
OPTIONS
By default, the Imperial Outcast and Blacksmith's Pride sets have been added as unique "Easter egg" sets that can be found at specific locations in Skyrim. If you'd like to craft these sets, you can use the console to enter: set CraftUniqueSets_AMB to 1 (set to 0 to re-disable crafting).
