📋 About This Mod
July 11/2010 - Added to mod compilation http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=32931 GQ Magicka from Soul Gem Version 2 - Now works on stacks of gems dropped. - Added a quest-item key that does the same thing. Use the Console to get it. Form ID xx0037c7, where xx is the position in the mod load order in hexadecimal Requires OBSE This uses a modified version of Strategy Master\'s Soul Delete script aaSMSoulDeleteScript ( http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=24292 ). This mods puts a script on a Pewter Pitcher (Form ID 1C61F). Hotkey it and, while looking at a filled soul gem, equip it via hotkey. The soul gem will be emptied and the soul inside converted into units of a \"Distilled Magicka\" ingredient (which you can imagine to be poured inside the pewter pitcher). The amount received varies according to the Magicka values for each soul level (may vary with a mod), Mysticism skill, and Luck. The Distilled Magicka ingredient returns 50 Magicka over 50 seconds when ingested. All four ingredient slots are Restore Magicka, which can advantage you when using the Alchemy Advanced mod. Each time a soulgem is emptied, Mysticism skill is increased by 1-5 uses, depending on the soul level emptied. KNOWN ISSUE - If there is more than one soulgem or soulgem stack near the one you are looking at, more than one gem might be grabbed by the script although only one is processed properly. KNOWN ISSUE - If used on a non-vanilla Oblivion soulgem that is pre-filled, it will be replaced by a non-black vanilla soulgem with the same maximum soul capacity KNOWN ISSUE - Clearing a pre-filled gem also clears a \"stolen\" attribute -- We destroy one pre-filled gem of the same type and create one new empty gem. KNOWN ISSUE - Extra-data issue exists: If a stack of cleared player-filled gems is in inventory, the next time any one soul is captured, the entire stack becomes filled, instead of just one gem - use an extra-data cleaner, like the Scrolls bag of the Portable Sorters mod, to clear it - we can\'t simply remove them in inventory because we can\'t be sure which gems will be deleted - using a proxy NPC to remove it caused a script bug where the script looped back to the start http://fantasy-art.tel http://www.fantasy-art-and-portraits.com http://gq-game-mods.blogspot.com
