📋 About This Mod
This is a simple patch that makes Immersive College of Winterhold (ICoW) compatible with all types of face mods.
The original ICoW edited the NPC records to give them new faces, new routines, new spells, new perks, new classes, therefore face mods would require a patch with it.
This patch changes the ICoW esp, so that ICoW no longer directly edits the NPC records, and will instead apply the changes through a quest.
Limitation:
1. This patch removes the new perks and new classes from the NPCs.
I created this patch for my own use, and the NPCs' perks and classes are not important to me, as I assume they aren't to you.
What the original has:
New routines
New classes
What the patch has:
New routines
2. This is a direct replacement of ICoW's esp because that is the only way for it to be compatible with all faces.
This small compatibility patch ensures Immersive College of Winterhold works with any face mod, preventing visual glitches. With 98 endorsements and 25,400 downloads, it's a niche utility for players who use face overhauls. Last updated March 2025, it remains relevant for current setups.
