📋 About This Mod
This mod adds a crafting recipe for charcoal sticks. There are two versions of charcoal in Skyrim, 000bfb09 and 00033760 (see http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Charcoal#Charcoal for more details). Some crafting mods add the first charcoal while some weapon mods require the 2nd. This mod simply allows players to craft the 2nd type. Both are named the same in game (Charcoal) but you can differentiate them by their weight (1. 0 for regular and 0. 5 for sticks) and by their icon (regular charcoal for regular and a charcoal stick for sticks). The recipe yields 3 charcoal sticks for a single piece of firewood. This can be done at any smelter. Installation: Copy the charcoal.esp into your Skyrim data directory. Uninstallation: Delete the charcoal.esp
Adds a single crafting recipe for charcoal sticks (item ID 00033760) to Skyrim. A minimal, focused mod for players who want to craft charcoal instead of buying it. Last updated in 2012, so it's old but still functional for classic Skyrim.
