📋 About This Mod
Description
This is a collection of tweaks for Beyond Reach.
Delayed Quest Start
Beyond Reach initiates its main quest by an encounter with a priestess of Mara and her guard in any random city. I made a small tweak which delays this encounter until you are level 25. (customizable) So you can start the quest at that level. Optionally, you can also add The Book of Love as a requirement.
Lastly, I added a restriction so the priestess of Mara and her guard to only show up in Skyrim and prevent them from appearing in other locations, like Beyond Skyrim: Bruma.
You can use console commands to customize the requirements:
set ArnimaStartLevelReq to X
X being the level req. (Default value is 25.)
set ArnimaStartMaraReqEnabled to X
If X is set to 1 (or any value other than 0), you need to have completed The Book of Love quest, in order for the Priestess of Mara to show up.
If X is set to 0, you don't need to have completed that quest.
(Default value is 0.)
Skyrim Border Tweak
Connects the Skyrim Worldspace to Beyond Reach's Worldspace. The mountain pass (on the Skyrim side) can be found near Hagrock Redoubt.
However, everything related to the gate and mountain pass will be disabled and invisible, if you haven't been to the Beyond Reach worldspace yet. (i.e.: having spoken to the merchant and travelled there) This is done to avoid issues with the main quest from Beyond Reach.
I included an attached INI file which takes care of the region borders.
Shields and Cloaks
Gives Cloaks and Shields with the Griffon Emblem to Evermore Guards.
Temper Recipes
Adds temper recipes for all playable weapons and armors, so they can be upgraded at the Grindstone or Workbench. It also adds fixed values and keywords to some armors, to make it function with mods that function on those keywords. No longer supported from 2. 7 onwards. I recommend using a Synthesis Patcher for Temper Recipes. I can't help you with that though. I can only recommend it.
Q: The cloak is stiff! Help!
A: I cannot replicate this issue on my end. I am aware that certain users have this issue. Simply repeating that you're having this issue isn't helpful to me. In order to solve this, I need more information, like screenshots or videos. Without those, I am unable to fix this.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Beyond Reach is installed and active before adding this tweak pack, and load this mod after Beyond Reach in your mod manager.

- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the file placement automatically—manual install is possible but riskier.
