📋 About This Mod

Mod: Frost Giants in the Cold 1_0 Game: TES V: Skyrim Requires: Dawnguard Author: David Brasher Date: 9/9/12 ********************************************************************* CONTENTS ****************************************************************** 1. Information on the Mod 2. Installation 3. Version History 4. Conflicts, Known Issues, and Troubleshooting 5. Copy Status and Credits ****************************************************************** 1. INFORMATION ON THE MOD ****************************************************************** This mod places respawning Frost Giants in the cold parts of Skyrim. These are Frost Giants like the ones seen in Dawnguard, although they are not tied to a quest. They like to live in cold places that are often rather remote. They like mountain tops, icy beaches, and islands in the cold sea. They are not too aggressive unless they feel like you are trespassing on their territory. They usually live alone, but sometimes visit giant camps, or have bears, wolves, or other creatures as pets. The Frost Giants have their own new spawn points, so there will be no conflict with mods that edit leveled lists. The Frost Giants are not leveled and are rather tough. If you are low level, you should probably keep your distance and avoid angering them. ****************************************************************** 2. Installation ******************************************************************** To install this mod, extract (decompress) the .esp to your Skyrim directory. (It will be something like Installation directory\\Skyrim\\SteamApps\\common\\Skyrim\\Data) Mark the box next to the mod in your mod manager. Alternately, extract someplace else. Then move the .esp to Skyrim\\Data. Mark the box next to the mod in your mod manager. ******************************************************************** 3. Version History ****************************************************************** V 1. 0 9/9/12 Initial release. ****************************************************************** 4. Conflicts, Known Issues, and Troubleshooting ********************************************************************* This mod will not conflict with mods that edit leveled lists. This mod will not conflict with the quest in Dawnguard that involves Frost Giants. You can\'t play this mod unless you have Dawnguard. This mod could put a Frost Giant where you do not want one, like if you built yourself a house mod in a remote and snowy location. You might have a Frost Giant in your yard, and that is never a good thing. If you locate a bug, contact David Brasher on Skyrim Nexus so that the situation can be examined and can hopefull
