INSTALLATION NOTES
DO NOTHING OTHER THAN THIS.
Step 1: Read the description. THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL. This mod package is EXTREMELY complex and if you don't know what you're getting yourself into, you will not know what this actually DOES. Furthermore, your game will probably crash and burn. READ THE DESCRIPTION. READ THE DESCRIPTION. READ THE DESCRIPTION.
Step 2: Download the mod.
Step 3: Install with the mod manager on a new game. Select which modules you wish to install. MAKE SURE THAT NO SCRIPTS ARE EVER OVERWRITTEN BY ANY FILE, INCLUDING THE UNOFFICIAL PATCHES. No matter what.
Steps 4 - 9: If you do not have any of these, install them. If you don't know what anything on this list is, YOU NEED TO FIND OUT. BOSS, SSME, ENBoost, SkyUI, SKSE, and the Unofficial Patches.
Step 10: Sort your load order with BOSS.
Step 11: YOU MUST START A NEW GAME. THERE IS NO WAY AROUND THIS. AT ALL. SO DON'T ASK ME. BECAUSE YOU MUST START A NEW GAME. YOU MUST START A NEW GAME. NO, NOT AFTER YOU EXIT HELGEN THE FIRST TIME, NOT BEFORE YOU START THE CIVIL WAR, NOT AFTER BREAKFAST,YOU MUST USE THIS ON A NEW GAME WHERE YOU CLICK ON THE TEXT IN THE MAIN MENU THAT SAYS 'NEW GAME'. YOU MUST START A NEW GAME.
IF YOU ARE USING VIOLENS You will need the compatibility scripts from that page for CDO.
IF YOU ARE UPGRADING BETWEEN VERSIONS AND YOU WILL BE UPGRADING CWO IN THE PROCESS:
YOU DO NOT NEED A NEW GAME IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM EGO 3 TO EGO 3. 0x. THIS UPGRADE MAY BE DONE AT ANY TIME UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM ANY OTHER VERSION TO ANY OTHER VERSION, YOU MUST START A NEW GAME.
IF YOU ARE UPGRADING IIO
IIO HAS BEEN ROLLED BACK TO V2. 1 DUE TO WAY TOO MANY ISSUES FOR SUCH A SMALL UPDATE. USERS UPDATING MIDGAME SHOULD REMOVE, THEN ADD THE SPELL "IIO ABILITY" FROM/TO THE PLAYER IN THE CONSOLE TO RESTORE IIO.
IF YOU ARE UNINSTALLING
Sweet mother of god, I can't even contemplate the ramifications of this. If you uninstall this your save is toast. Uninstall with the mod manager, making sure that all scripts added by CWO are removed, then start a new game.
