Do whatever you want with my patch, as long as your mod stays on Nexus and isn't being sold. Credit appreciated but not required.A big shoutout to rayhne, who had done a VIS patch for an older version of Tales from the Commonwealth. While it didn't cover everything in the newest version, it nevertheless saved me a ton of time. If you use the VIS version, please consider dropping an endorsement and kudos that way.
