Changes the crafting requirements for the CC Crossbows

Previously you'd unlock the ability to craft them as soon as you bought one + had the relevant material perk. You could also enhance them from minute 1 even if you never touched Dawnguard. My change is that cc crossbows now have vanilla requirements

  • Imperial, Nord, Elven and Orcish unlock when you learn to craft steel crossbows
  • Ebony, Glass, Dragonbone and Daedric unlock when you learn to craft Dwarven crossbows
  • You still need the relevant perk for the material for these crossbows
  • Stalhrim crossbows unlock with Dwarven crossbows, but also require you to do the quest to learn how to smith Stalhrim
  • All crossbows gain the ability to be enhanced only when you finish the relevant enhanced crossbow recipe quest from the Dawnguard sidequests
  • Dawnguard Crossbows can now be crafted at any forge. This is slightly outside the scope of this patch, however, all but the two Dawnguard crossbows were always set up to be crafted at any forge, so I opted to go with the newer requirements. This was always a weird little quirk of Dawnguard anyway, and given that they added over a half dozen new crossbows as DLC that some bartender in Whiterun can sell, the line about how only the Dawnguard use crossbows seems... to not really matter to Bethesda anymore

Obviously the two crossbow CC DLC are required, or the AE edition, that has them all as well

I strongly recommend Jelidity's Rare Curios Bolt Expanded mod as a companion to this one to make crossbows feel a little more standard within the game. That mod fills in the gaps of bolt types so they match the types of crossbows added by the CC

This mod probably doesn't change anything if you have a mod that lets you craft the Dawnguard crossbows without the Dawnguard quests as long as that mod is lower on the list than this one. All the CC crossbows will still require Dawnguard with this mod but... if you wanted to craft the CC crossbows without Dawnguard, why would you download this mod since they already are by default
