    Requirements & Installation

    Requires SkyUI, unless you download the No-SkyUI version (which will not include a MCM menu through which you can customize the mod). Info about the No-SkyUI version, including install instructions, are in a separate section below.

    DLCs are not required if you download the No-DLC version, but they are required for the default download.

    Manual Installation: Extract all files into your /Skyrim/Data/ directory. Enable the . ESP file in SkyrimLauncher -> Data Files.

    MO or NMM: Just install and enable it.

    Regardless of which installation you choose, you should install the hotfix file as well. Download the zip and extract the files into your Data directory, allowing it to overwrite the old files.

    Load order doesn't matter for main file.

    As always, keep a backup save from before installing any mod. If you have any issues, uninstall the mod and revert to your old save.

    Optional files:

    These must be used in addition to a main file.

This will allow the stat boosts, knockdown, and stagger resistance effects from DD to apply to my dragons. You must be using the full version of DDC2 (not the No-DLC or No-SkyUI versions). Place this patch file after both DDC and DD in the load order.

    []Force DDC Only (ogDDC2_ForceNoPluginDragons.esp): This removes all non-DDC2 dragons from the leveled lists so that you will only encounter DDC2 dragons. This file must be placed at the bottom of the l
