Usable Lantern SE Tweaked

Check my new mod Realistic Usable Lanterns which is a continuation of this mod

Description

Turns those useless lanterns you can pick up all over Skyrim into usable lanterns that can be used as an alternative for a torch. Vanilla misc object lanterns can be equipped to any hand and can be used like a torch. Unlike torch, lanterns are infinite and never go out.

The original LE Mod was created by hifoo. The existing SE version has an old plugin form version, so I decided to port it properly. I've also made some improvements:

• []ESL-flagged the plugin

  []Removed Idle Animation record from the plugin, because Update.esm already does the same and even better

  []Integrated WACCF changes (the lantern value and weight)

  []Added fixed mesh by CemKey that was posted in the original mod post

  []Removed the torch burning sound from the lantern

  []Added consistency patches for a lot of lighting mods to make the lantern lighting color match the torch lighting

  []Added an option to replace guard torches with lanterns (made by aproco)

  []Added an option to revert animations to vanilla using DAR or OAR (lanterns use torch animations and if you have mods that replace them, they may look weird with lanterns)

  []Added a preset for Immersive Equipment Displays (with a version for Immersive Equipment Displays - unequip when nude) that disables the torch display for lantern, so that you don't see a floating lantern in front of you.

• []You can block with lanterns and that looks weird

  []Stolen lanterns are not marked as "stolen" (but you still get a bounty)

  []If you put lanterns from your inventory into a container or an NPC inventory with lanterns that never were in your inventory, they will be in two different stacks

Install with your mod-manager.

For Immersive Equipment Displays users: To apply the IED preset, open the IED menu, in the Display Manager window select the "Usable Lantern" preset and click Merge on both Global > Player and Global > NPC tabs. If you use the version for Immersive Equipment Displays - unequip when nude, you must apply the "unequip when nude" preset first, and then "Usable Lantern - unequip torch when nude".

I also highly recommend installing Proper Mod-Added Torch Support, since it also applied to the lantern from this mod.
