      Requirements

      Installation

      Pick only one file. If you are already using the ESP version of the mod in your current playthrough it is not recommended to swap to the ESL-flagged version.

      All USSEP fixes are fowarded.

      Compatibilty

      I won't be creating patches for larger mods' (like Bruma) animal factions for the simple fact that the NARC Remade - No Animals Report Crimes for Skyrim SE already contains patches for them. These patches can be used alongside this mod without the main NARC file.

      I encourage you to compare any mod conflicts in SSEEdit if you are having any issues. Check out the NARC page above for any patches and if all else fails, simply load this mod last to ensure that its changes take effect.

      I'm down to adding features to the mod that are within my skill-range. Any features from the original HASTE mod can be requested and I will attempt to add them to the single ESP/ESPFE.

      This mod is based off of HorribleAndy's LE HASTE mod that has open permissions. I added them as the author of the file for that reason and trimmed down the mod to suit my personal needs. I wanted to give HorribleAndy a massive thanks for their hard work and for being willing to release it to the Nexus community. Please be sure to drop by their profile and leave a kudo!
