📋 About This Mod
Plugin for Illuminated Order Improved, adds flame particle effect to the skeletal lich form. This mod REQUIRES Illuminated Order Improved to function and MUST come after Illuminated Order Improved.esp in your load order.
I loved boethiah539's fire plugin for Illuminated Order so thought I'd update it a bit and add more colours to choose from.
==INSTALLATION==
Simply drag and drop the "Data Files" folder from this archive to your Morrowind installation directory (where Morrowind.exe is).
==UNINSTALLATION==
If you wish to stop using this plugin simply uncheck ioi Particle SFX.esp in your load order. If you wish to completely remove this mod from your installation you
can easily find the plugin, mesh and texture files by using the Date Files folder in this archive as a "guide" and delete them if you wish, this will not interfere
with Illuminated Order Improved.
