📋 About This Mod

About this mod:

F4SE plugin that patches the vanilla code to allow storing and dropping Quest Items and Keys.

Notes: I haven't seen any mod that natively supports all (including any mod added) items, I thought someone may find this plugin useful. Make sure to not lose these items if you'd like to use them later (e.g. store them in safe containers like settlement workbenches and such).

Optional INI:

From v2. 1, the ability to drop Keys and Quest Items can now be selectively disabled in an INI.

The INI is not included with the mod.

You'd need to create "DropQuestItemsAndKeys.ini" in your F4SE/Plugins folder:

.. Data\F4SE\Plugins\DropQuestItemsAndKeys.ini

bInstallDropKeys=1

bInstallDropQuestItems=1

To turn off the features, change the values from 1 to 0.

Requirements:
