    • []Scarves of Skyrim - CBBE 3BA and HIMBO

      Mod utilizes a small script that runs once (at game initialization) to distribute and equip scarves to Elder NPCs. I have edited the distribution so that only about half of the Elder NPCs are covered. See _DISTR.ini

      Three versions:

      • []All-in-One: Mod randomly distributes either a muffler or long scarf to NPCs. Sixteen (16) texture variations.

        []Muffler Only: Mod distributes a muffler to NPCs. Sixteen (16) texture variations.

        []Long Scarf: Mod distributes a long scarf to NPCs. Sixteen (16) texture variations.

      I have used the terrific textures from Scarves of Skyrim - Lind's Version. That is, Lind's textures are included in my mod. The very generous permissions from Lind001 made this possible. Be sure to thank Lind001 and endorse Scarves of Skyrim - Lind's Version.

      Mod can be re-configured to distribute scarves to any NPC and / or any group of NPCs that you wish! Edit the _DISTRI.ini that comes with this mod, and add (or delete) any Form ID that you wish.

      Compatibility

      Highly compatible with most setups, and with most other mods.

      • []Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) does not edit levelled lists, and does not modify or generate new records.

        []Body slots, however, are not compatible. Choose wisely, or edit the body slot. I will not alter body slots.

        []Clipping will likely occur depending on setup. I will not resolve clipping issues.

        Installation and Uninstallation

        Use the mod manager of your choice to install. Or manually. To uninstall, remove with mod manager. My understanding is that SPID will not impact save games in any way. Safe to uninstall at anytime.

        Configuration

        Huge number of configuration options available in the _DISTR.ini. Some knowledge of Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) is useful to achieve desired results.

        Caveats, Recommendations, and Extensions

        • []Fully standalone. The very generous permissions from Natterforme made this mod possible. Be sure to thank Natterforme and endorse Scarves of Skyrim

          []All three versions can be used together
