📋 About This Mod
Update: Instead of using this patch, consider using the 1. 5 backport of Custom Skills Framework v2 that was recently released. You can find it in the optional files of Custom Skills Framework! This way you can get the full experience intended by the original author.
This mod modifies the perk tree in Stormcrown - A Shout Overhaul to be compatible with Custom Skills Framework v1, so the mod can be fully used with the Skyrim 1. 5. 97 executable.
Requirements:
Stormcrown - A Shout Overhaul
Custom Skills Framework, intended to be used with v1 but technically works with v2 aswell
. NET Script Framework this is required by Custom Skills Framework v1! It's not mentioned on the mod page of CSF because the requirements changed with the update to v2.
Installation:
Install with a mod manager, overwrite files from Stormcrown if prompted.
The mod can be installed midsave, however the hotkeys don't work if installed on a save where Stormcrown has already been installed. The perk menu will still open when activating the Meditate power though.
Compatibility:
Last checked against Stormcrown version 1. 1. 5.
Likely can be used with newer versions as well. If there have been changes to the perk tree an update is required.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 246 endorsements and over 14k downloads
- Essential for 1.5.97 users who want Stormcrown's full perk tree experience
- Author provides a clear update path: consider the 1.5 backport of CSF v2 for the full experience
⚠️ Cons
- Hotkeys break on saves where Stormcrown was already installed—you'll need a fresh start for full functionality
- Requires .NET Script Framework, which isn't mentioned on CSF's page—easy to miss and adds setup complexity
- Compatibility is only guaranteed up to Stormcrown 1.1.5; newer versions may need an update
For Skyrim Special Edition players stuck on 1.5.97 who want to use Stormcrown's shout overhaul with Custom Skills Framework. If you're on the latest version, skip this and grab the CSF v2 backport instead. This is a compatibility patch, not a standalone mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install with a mod manager and let it overwrite Stormcrown files when prompted—this is critical for the patch to take effect.
- If you're starting a new playthrough, install this before adding Stormcrown to avoid the hotkey bug on existing saves.
- Check your Skyrim version: this is for 1.5.97 only. If you're on 1.6+, use the CSF v2 backport instead.
