📋 About This Mod
What\'s New? =========== A 15 second spell timer has been added to the \'Move Quest Items\' spell. This is simply a visual aid, and has no effect on the functionality of this mod. \'Move Quest Items\' and \'Permanently Remove Quest Status\' may no longer be cast when one of them is still active. This prevents items from losing their quest status improperly. What\'s Planned? =============== Adding the ability to toggle the quest status of an item instead of simply removing it. Items that have had their quest status removed (or added) will be remembered so that they can be toggled back to their original state whenever the player wishes. Description =========== Tired of quest items clogging your inventory? Want to move them out of your inventory? Reluctant to use other Quest status mods that permanently affect your Quest items? Move Quest Items adds two lesser powers that let you move your Quest items around either temporarily or permanently. Another Quest item mod? Aren\'t there enough of them? Unfortunately, all of the other Quest item mods have various limitations: []Some only work via a script with a pre-defined list of Quest items, and therefore don\'t work with any new Quest items added by other Mods.[/] []Others modify the items directly via a plugin. This creates a plethora of incompatibilities, as well as not affecting Quest items added by other Mods.[/] []Some work with all Quest items, but they permanently remove Quest status from all items that you have in your inventory.[/] []Some of them don\'t preserve script variables on the Quest items due to how their scripts work.[/] []None of them properly handle Quest items that were never meant to be dropped. (When these are dropped, an error marker is displayed and they cannot be picked back up)[/] Move Quest Items allows you to semi-safely move quest items around. It works with Quest items from all Mods without unwarranted permanent effects. All script variables are preserved on the Quest items, and items that would display an error marker are automatically fixed by assigning them an arbitrary mesh. OBSE v0010 or higher is required. Depending on how a Quest item is scripted, some weirdness may occur as a result of dropping them, picking them up, moving them into containers, etc. This is completely dependent on how the item is scripted, and every Quest item mod suffers this problem. Some mods avoid this by refusing to change an item\'s Quest status until it is safe to do so, but this is done by scripting in special cases for every Quest item in vanilla Oblivion. I could have done this, but it lulls the player into thinking that every item had been accounted for; Quest items added by other mods could still be susceptible. I would rather grant the player the ability to drop items as they wish, and simply warn them of the possible consequences. Move Quest items around at your own risk.
