📋 About This Mod
Description
In vanilla you need to complete one radiant quest before you can start Proving Honor, one before The Silver Hand and two before Blood's Honor, making pauses in the questline. This mod allows you to increase the duration of the questline by increasing the number of radiant quests required for its progression.
This mod does the same thing as The Companions - Earn your stripes and More Radiant Quests for the Companions, but they require patches for aMidianBorn Skyforge Weapons/Content Addon/Armor Variants Lite and any other mods that edit the Take Up Arms quest record. Moreover, a separate patch needs to be made for each of the provided options for the number of required quests. My mod doesn't edit any vanilla records or scripts and therefore is compatible with everything, and also doesn't limit you to a few options.
The installer includes presets matching the mentioned mods. If you're not satisfied with the presets, you can easily set the desired number of radiant quests required for each of the three quests in a .json file that comes with this mod (Data\SKSE\Plugins\StorageUtilData\CompanionsProgressionReqs.json). You can set any positive numbers.
This mod applies the values when you start a new game (or on the first game loading if you install it midgame), i.e. changes in the json won't be applied if the mod is already initialized on this save.
