📋 About This Mod

Wow, I didn't think this small mod would grow to be so popular, thanks! I've added a new file for smelting and crafting a few important items.

Description

This mod removes all the ingredients and perks required for various armors. It only affects Vanilla armors, weapons, etc..

The recently added file removes the requirements to make leather,ingots and other materials used in recipes as a work-around for crafting DLC and  moded armor or other things. The mods do not affect your smithing perk in any way, although  I guess you can quickly cheat your way up to 100 by crafting lots of items out of thin air

  • easysmith: original file that removes all requirements for crafting weapons and armor
  • easysmith optional: smithing perk requirements are retained, otherwise same as original
  • easysmith with added recipes: Same as original file, but you can also create ingots, leather,  linen, and gold coins (500 each)

installation:

No other mods are required. Just download and activate with mod manager, nothing complicated, or:

if you wish to do it manually, place the easysmith.esp or easysmith + other recipes - copy.esp file under C:\Program Files (x#)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data where all the other mods usually go.

Uninstalling:

Just reverse the steps for installation. The mod changes very few things so uninstalling it shouldn't be a problem.

I don't see the option to craft gold/ linen wrap/ leather!? -Gold can be crafted at the smelter, linen wrap and leather are where they should be at the tanning rack.

Why'd you change the mod title? -Because someone recommended it and I liked it. credit to Tavico

Will recipes for food and tempering ever be available? -What is food? As for tempering weapons/ armor, there are a lot of glitchy ones that aren't normally available or require the completion of quests, etc. so I find it best not to mess around with those.

Can you add _____ as a recipe? -I know some mods and DLC require unique items for crafting, such as linen wrap, but I'm not too familiar with others. As for other items, such as falmer armor, I'll probably add them in the future.

-also, please tell me if you run into any problems with the mod or have any ideas for improvements on it!
