📋 About This Mod

Simply changes messages displayed by Item Equip Restrictor in first-person in a more immersive way, as in the likes of Your Own Thoughts mod.

For instance

Instead of You lack the necessary skill to cast this spell the message displayed is now I am not skilled enough at this school of magic to cast this spell properly.

And so on, for now it looks like:

{item} is not fit for me to equip it.

I am not able to cast this spell.

I am not skilled enough to equip {item}.

I am not skilled enough at this school of magic to cast this spell properly.

I need to train more to equip {item}.

I need to train more to cast this spell.

I want to thanks po3 for the mod, I requested in one day on discord and on the next he drops this.

I will use it on a mod I've been wanting to tweak for a long time, spoiler in the images.
