📋 About This Mod

Currency Swapper is an SKSE framework that allows other mods to change the default currency of Skyrim. Currency swapper does this through the use of an SKSE plugin, eliminating any conflict and providing dynamic patching for UI consistency.

Examples of Mods:

  • []M. I. N. T. - Mint Issued National Tenders[/]

    []Soul Cairn Actual Merchant[/]

    []Orc Currency[/]

Requirements

Skyrim SE version 1. 6. 1130+

SKSE (Skyrim Script Extender)

Address Library for SKSE Plugins

If you are unsure what version of Address Library for SKSE plugins to get, get the 1. 6. X one. SKSE's version needs to match your game version's.

Mod Development Information

Currency Swapper aims to be as intuitive to use as possible, and everything can be done through Papyrus Scripts. To use  the new functions, you need to first import SEA_BarterFunctions to your script like this:

Scriptname ExampleScript Extends Quest

Import SEA_BarterFunctions

Ideally, you want to use a quest to hold the script so you can also register for the events. The events provided by SEA_BarterFunctions can be used after you register for them, like this:

Scriptname ExampleScript Extends Quest

Import SEA_BarterFunctions

Event OnInit()

RegisterFormForAllEvents(Self)

This way, this form will be able to use any event in the SEA_BarterFunctions script. Do note that you need to re-register the form every time the game is loaded, since the registered forms are NOT saved in the DLL. Check out the vanilla OnPlayerLoadGame() event for an easy example on how to detect game loads.

Switching currencies is a lot simpler:
