Left Hand Rings

Left Hand Rings by duggelz, version 1. 5

Adds rings that are worn on the left hand. You can wear two rings at once, one on each hand. These rings can be crafted, enchanted, bought from merchants, and found randomly as treasure.

== How It Works ==

This mod adds left-handed rings to mirror the regular right-handed rings in Skyrim. Their names have the word "(Left)" after them. For example, "Silver Garnet Ring (Left)". When equipped, they will appear on the first finger of the left hand. NPCs and followers will equip left-handed rings in their inventory.

Left-handed rings will always start as non-magical, but can be enchanted like any other ring. They can be crafted at a forge using the same ingredients as right-handed rings. They will randomly appear in merchant inventories and treasure chests.

Three special rings, the "Bond of Matrimony", the "Ring of Hircine", and the "Bone Hawk Ring", can be converted to left-handed versions at a blacksmith's forge. You must have a regular right-handed version in your inventory already. Then activate the forge, and look under "Jewelry" for the recipe.

== Install ==

Nexus Mod Manager: Click the "Download with Manager" button. Once it's downloaded, in the Nexus Mod Manager, click on the "Mods" tab, and double-click on "Left Hand Rings" to activate it. An installer window will ask whether you also want the Dawnguard option installed.

When you first install this mod, you'll be given a single left-handed silver ring. This will let you know that the mod is working.

There are two .esp files in this mod. If you have Dawnguard installed, you need _BOTH_ of them active. One is called "LeftHandRings.esp" and the other is called "LeftHandRings - Dawnguard.esp".

== Uninstall ==

Unequip any left-handed ring you have equipped, save your game, and exit Skyrim.

Nexus Mod Manager: Click on the "Mods" tab, double-click on "Left Hand Rings" to deactivate it, then click "Delete".

== Limitations ==

Left-handed rings don't show up when you're in first-person view because it would break numerous other mods. If you want to fix this, read the following Guide by Shadowjin.

It would be great if this mod could just switch any ring from right to left handed on the fly. This is possible with SKSE but requires some tricky scripting. In my experience, the result tends to be a bit glitchy. In the interest of keeping my mod simple, I haven't added this feature. But if you want it, look at the mods "TwoRings" by Dienes, or &#
