📜FEATURES
🚩EAS patch for Diverse Foods.
🚩Both "foods" and "breads" are patched separately like main mod.
🚩Optional patches for Survival Mode, Gourmet, CACO, Requiem, and SunHelm. To balance food records; no recipe or crafting.
🎲COMPATIBILITY
✅Immersive Interactions - Eating ingredients and apply poison animations recommended. Garlic and onion added by Diverse Foods cannot be animated with EAS as they are "ingredients", not "ingestibles". This will cover them.
❌Other patches of Survival Mode, Gourmet, CACO, Requiem, SunHelm made for Diverse Foods. My files already cover basic things. If you must have them, let my mod win over conflicts.
🛠️INSTALLATION
✅Diverse Foods - Base Object Swapper:
ℹ️Main Files: "Diverse Foods - Base Object Swapper" (No need Hearthfires patch in the "Main Files", covered by "Diverse Foods ESL and patches" in "Update Files" already.)
ℹ️Update Files: "Diverse Foods ESL and patches" (This is a must! My files won't work without it.)
ℹ️Optional Files: Nothing here needed. Survival is already covered in my patches.
✅Use a mod manager of choice, there is a FOMOD.
If not: Use standalone files under the "Optional Files" or go on with manual installation instructions as follows.
\fomod (Ignore this folder.)
\master
| \Diverse Breads EAS (Required if you have Diverse Breads. You do, by default. Put its contents into your data folder.)
| \Diverse Foods EAS (Required if you have Diverse Foods. You do, by default. Put its contents into your data folder.)
\options
\Diverse Breads EAS CACO Survival.esp (If you have Diverse Breads, CACO, and Survival Mode. Put this into your data folder.)
\Diverse Breads EAS CACO.esp (If you have Diverse Breads and CACO, but do not want Survival Mode edits. Put this into your data folder.
\Diverse Foods EAS CACO Survival.esp (Same as above, but for Diverse Foods.)
\Diverse Foods EAS CACO.esp (You get the idea.)
\gourmet (Similar instructions of CACO.)
\requiem (Similar instructions of CACO. Requiem is meant to be played with Survival, so I included it by default.)
\vanilla (Similar instructions of CACO.)
SunHelm patch is under misc files.
Safe to add/subtract/multiply/divide - new/mid/end game. Just keep up with common senses and the best practices.

Diverse Foods - EAS is a compatibility patch that adds Eating Animations and Sounds (EAS) support to the Diverse Foods and Diverse Breads mods for Skyrim. It includes separate patches for foods and breads, with optional patches for Survival Mode, Gourmet, CACO, Requiem, and SunHelm to balance food records. The mod requires Diverse Foods - Base Object Swapper and its ESL patch, and is installed via FOMOD.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid endorsement count (286) and over 11k downloads show it's trusted by the community.
- FOMOD installer makes setup painless, and the ESPFE saves precious plugin slots.
- Covers all the major gameplay overhauls—Survival, CACO, Requiem—so you don't need multiple patches.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the Diverse Foods - Base Object Swapper and its ESL patch as hard dependencies, so you can't use it standalone.
- Conflicts with other Diverse Foods patches for Survival, Gourmet, CACO, Requiem, or SunHelm—you have to let this one win.
- Garlic and onion from Diverse Foods aren't animated by EAS directly; you'll need Immersive Interactions to cover them.
For Skyrim modders who use Diverse Foods and want eating animations to match. If you're already running EAS and have Survival Mode or CACO, this patch is a no-brainer. Skip if you don't use Diverse Foods or don't care about eating animations.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you install the 'Diverse Foods ESL and patches' update file—the mod won't work without it.
- If you use a mod manager, just run the FOMOD and pick your optional patches; don't manually extract unless you know what you're doing.
- Load this patch after Diverse Foods and any other mods it patches to ensure conflicts resolve in its favor.
