Drop Lit Torches (OBSE)
Created by Strategy Master

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This mod is an OBSE extension of Frugal's drop lit torches.

This improves upon frugals original formula by fixing the following
- Annoying messages no longer occur through torch usage
- Torches are now dropped when weilding a staff
- The hotkey torch should no longer require player to on rare occasions use it twice
to work.
- Automatic compatability detection with mods that modify the default torch with extra
weight or modified light radius or cost so no more any need for alternate plugins
- Now you can press a hotkey (by default '0') to equip your torch. This button can
be set to what ever you wish using the ini file provided. (You can disable the old hotkey
torch completly in the ini if you wish)
- Smart auto-equip of torch when you pick up a dropped torch with weapons out.

Known issues
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- None at this time

Installation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unzip to your Oblivion Data directory remove any previous Installation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unzip to your Oblivion Data directory remove any previous drop lit torch esp's and select
the following esp via the Oblivion launcher.

DropLitTorchOBSE.esp

I have also included the torch sound patch from Daeger. This gets rid of the equip/unequip
sounds when you drop a torch. Unrar the torchsoundpatch.rar into your oblivion data folder.

The Ini is an optional feature but allows you to make other changes like changing the hotkey,
forcing torches gold, weight and light radius to whatever you desire, or completly disabling
the hotkey torch.
