]Creates enchanted variants for every piece of Alternative Armor[]Manually distributes both enchanted and unenchanted versions of the armor throughout leveled lists, per Thaumaturgy's conventions
[]Removes quest-locked crafting requirements on any armors that had them
Installation:
This mod requires a fresh save in order to stop the CC quests from starting the associated quests and leveled list distribution. I do not recommend uninstalling this mod at any point during a playthrough, and will be unable to provide troubleshooting assistance if you decide to do so.
Compatibility:
This mod makes rather comprehensive changes to a drastic amount of leveled lists throughout the base game, Dragonborn, and small changes to Dawnguard. It is extremely likely that it will conflict with any mod that adds enchanted or unenchanted armors to leveled lists.
Patching:
I did my best to use the most easily approachable framework I could to allow for adding modded armors to leveled lists. Each tier of gear has separate Sublist entries that contain both the original vanilla armor and the new CC variant.
For example, the SublistElvenCuirassVariants entry replaces the vast majority of instances where you would find the vanilla Elven Armor. This Sublist contains both the vanilla Elven Armor and the CC Elven Hunter Armor, allowing for either one to appear. So, if you wanted to add a new version of an Elven cuirass, all you need to do is add that new armor to the SublistElvenCuirassVariants entry. That new armor now has a chance of appearing in dozens of leveled lists in any situation where you would have originally found the vanilla Elven Armor.
With enchanted variants of armors, the process is slightly more complex. The vanilla system requires that you add each piece of armor directly to the appropriate leveled list that corresponds to the armor and the enchantment strength.
This mod removes the quests tied to all Creation Club Alternate Armors and distributes both enchanted and unenchanted versions through leveled lists at appropriate levels. It's for Skyrim players who want these armors without quest grinding, with 580 endorsements and last updated in September 2023.
