📋 About This Mod
Here's a list of the patches and tweaks and what they do:
Cloud Tweak BS Morrowind Bonemold Ghosts
Requires Beyond Skyrim Morrowind Bonemold Weapon. Gives bonemold armour and weapons and Dunmer clothing to the ghosts of Tolvald Cave. I also changed some of the keywords on the ghosts to be in line with other ghost enemies, and forwarded USSEP changes. Make sure to load this tweak after Lore Gameplay Tweaks, if you have it.
Cloud Tweak CFTO - Fixes and Winterhold, No Knapsacks
Removes all knapsacks from Carriage and Ferry Travel Overhaul - Fixes and Winterhold. This means you only need compatibility patches targeted towards the original CFTO, except in Winterhold (because the new carriage is still added).
Cloud Tweak Dunmer Scarification ESPFE Replacer
If you've seen my previous mod 'Cloud's Race Record Patches', this is just the same file from there. Dunmer Scarification compacted and flagged as ESL.
Cloud Tweak Mihail's Draugr Cavalry Relevelled
Requires Mihail's Draugr Cavalry.
Changes the min and max levels of the cavalry. Removes the bonus damage perk. Changes the item drops to be random using appropriate levelled lists.
Cloud Tweak Mihail's Falmer Abyssraiders Relevelled
Requires Mihail's Falmer Abyssraiders.
Changes the min and max levels of the raiders.
Cloud Tweak Open Face Guard Helmets Standalone
Replaces the plugin in the original mod. Adds a set of new 'dusky' and 'sandy' helmets using the dark and light meshes and textures. The helmets are light armour, and have the appropriate WACCF keywords without requiring WACCF. The helmets are also placed in the guard helmet levelled lists, meaning the guards will use them interchangibly with the vanilla guard helmets. Let this mod override the original.
Cloud Tweak Paraphernalia Torches Begone
Requires specifically the v4. 1 ESL version of Paraphernalia Ambience.
Disables Paraphernalia adding three unique torches to the player's inventory on starting a new game. The torches still exist and can be added with console commands if desired.
Cloud Tweak Redux No Durzog
Requires 4thUnknown's Goblins and Durzogs.
Disables a specific durzog that's hand-placed in the mountains leading to Ancestor Glade. If you're using the alternate start mod 'Redux' by Craftian you start the game very close to this durzog, and the durzog can one-shot level 1 player characters (at least in my game). Doesn't actually require Redux though.
