As the mods both modify the same quest, they were incompatible. Until now!
You will now see quest markers after you talk to Vex, showing you where all the stones are.
In addition, the stones are no longer quest items and can be dropped.
Please note:
1. As a result, the stones now have WEIGHT, so you will WANT to drop them.
2. You will be able to break the quest if you drop them into a respawning container for example. So please don't do that. If you DO break the quest, "setstage tgcrown 30" will fix it.
3. The stones still don't stack unfortunately - the not-stacking is caused by the RENAMING. In fact the quest shows signs that its creator tried to fix the not-stacking problem, but was unsuccessful. Anyway, the main concern is how they clutter up the inventory and this is fixed
4. The stones have no physics - if you drop them in mid-air they will float.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 4,632 endorsements—clearly fills a need.
- Solves two problems at once: finding the stones and managing inventory weight.
- Simple, focused mod that does exactly what it says.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014—may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition without patches.
- Requires the original Stones of Barenziah quest to be active for markers to show, which might not be obvious to new players.
- Dropping stones might break the quest if you drop them in a place you can't retrieve—no warnings in the description.
For Skyrim completionists who hate the tedious hunt for the 24 Stones of Barenziah and don't want them weighing down their inventory. Also for players who want a cleaner quest experience without the clutter. Skip if you prefer a more immersive, unmarked scavenger hunt.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the quest 'No Stone Unturned' active before installing, or the markers won't appear.
- If you're playing Skyrim Special Edition, check for a compatible version or use a mod manager to handle any conversion.
- Drop stones in a safe location like your house, just in case you need them later for the quest reward.
