📋 About This Mod
vS83CWquU0Y
This mod replaces EVERY single book in the vanilla game with its own customized color-coded design.
All the books are now EASILY identifiable due to each being color-coded according to the subject as well as the book titles located on the spine. This allows one to easily tell at a glance what type of book it is.
Every book is unique. Each design has been well thought out, often showcasing the core moments of the story.
With each one being truly special & unique, finding and displaying them is a joy.
You can now identify, collect and display books easily.
(Compatible with BOTH Vanilla & OpenMW)
(please note: Bethesda dev's unwittingly placed many books upside down. fixing that is beyond the scope of this mod. but rest assured every single book texture has been double checked & are all rotated properly. including while using the melchiors magnificent manuscripts mod. so please consider that before reporting any issues.
"Perfect Placement" mod maybe used to manually rotate books)
