📋 About This Mod
I'm splitting off any of the patches from my patch page which have downloads in the thousands because a) they seem popular enough to warrant it (read: thanks, random Wabbajack list!), and b) searching for them is a royal PITA because my patch page was meant to be a dumping ground moreso than a collection. (But seriously, click the link, you might find some others that are useful)
This page may be ephemeral and eventually removed because I think someone's (slowly) working on an expanded OCW patch collection and I'll offer these up to that if/when it comes. But in the meantime....!
Obscure's College of Winterhold - 3DNPC - Update to patch provided with OCW. It disables a bench that is used as a sandbox marker by an NPC. This changes the reference to be an x-marker, and re-enables it so the NPC will still sandbox near what used to be the bench. 3DNPC version: 4. 4, OCW version 1. 6. 1 (3DNPC is creation club, right? :V Anyway, sticking this one here because it still covers the searching issue, and it's not like people are missing this patch, it's just a slight tweak to the original one)
Obscure's College of Winterhold - Cheesemod - CR between the two, and shifting some placed cheeses to match the new interior. Cheesemod version 1. 01, OCW version 1. 6. 1
Obscure's College of Winterhold - Exotic Arrows Creation Club Patch. Shifts a spellbook and a note to match new Arcanum layout. OCW version 1. 6. 1
Obscure's College of Winterhold - Wild Horses Creation Club Patch. Shifts a note to match new Arcanum layout. OCW version 1. 6. 1
Installation
Use a mod manager/organizer to install, or drop the loose files into your Skyrim data folder. Patches should have their appropriate masters set, and should be loaded after any mods which they are patching. Some of the fixes in question are on persistent objects, and may require a new save.
Compatibility
Should be fine with everything, I think.
