SSE Convert Notes.

I received permission to convert Legend of the Eagles Nest by Flaho shi. If you experience any bugs please report bugs so I can fix. Hope you all enjoy. I ran through creation kit 2. 0 and converted nif's using SSE Nif Optimizer. Then redid facegen data and packed zip. Everything looked good in a quick run through in general store version. So let me know if you find anything in the original version. New - Packed all files into BSA's, fixed river flows, and, some reported issues.

Should also be compatible with JK Riverwood now. May now work with Tumblestone Cottage and Riverwood Hunter's Cabin.
