About this mod

This mod adds a companion/NPC-compatible set of Nico\'s Gift (and alters the old scripts)

Permissions and credits
Original Mod (All here is based on version 4): http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=30851


Well this mod goes in round two, even after that short time :D
New scripts new function new new new


What this mod does:
______________________________
Since some people wanted to have Nico's awesome set of blades for their companions I decided to make a second weapons-set, which can be used by any NPC or Companion. In addition I made a REPLACEMENT-Esp for Nicos Gift.esp which makes it possible to use the new scripts with the original weapons AND to make them NPC/Companion-compatible, too.



Nicos Gift NPC.esp:
______________________________
This ESP is a partly stand-alone mod, which adds a new Version of the Weapons-Set of Nicos Gift. This version is especially for NPCs and companions since the blades have no longer their enchantment. The removal of the magic effec was necessary since it caused some oddities if the player was attacked. If you don't need more than just one of each blade and are sure the new owner of the blades won't attack your character skip to Nicos Gift.esp.
Details:
- Adds a chest with 3 of each blades (also respawns)
- The blades have no Enchantment
- All blades work with NPCs/Player
- New scripts work in the inventory, so you will never see your character hold the strange dualweapons, also it won't happen that you suddenly have this dualweapon as an extra item.
- The weapon will equip the fitting off-hand weapon automatically if you don't wear another shield and have it in your inventory (like the old scripts)
- Unequipping any of the Items ALWAYS works
- Can be used together with (recommended) or instead of Nicos Gift.esp (original and new one)



Nicos Gift.esp
______________________________
This ESP REPLACES the original one and adds the new scripts and functions to the ORIGINAL blades (it will not add any weapons or alter the blades in a VISIBLE way). The Enchantment will NOT be removed, so don't give these blades to any companion that you can't trust ;)
Details:
- All blades work with NPCs/Player
- New scripts work in the inventory, so you will never see your character hold the strange dualweapons, also it won't happen that you suddenly have this dualweapon as an extra item.
- The weapon will equip the fitting off-hand weapon automatically if you don't wear another shield and have it in your inventory (like the old scripts)
- Unequipping any of the Items ALWAYS works
- Can be used together with (recommended) or instead of Nicos Gift NPC.esp



Requirements:
______________________________
-The original mod http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=30851
and all of its requirements
(Normally you would just need the meshes and textures for Nicos Gift NPC.esp, but for your own greater gaming experience you should use both ESPs. The original blades (with/without new scripts) for your own character and the NPC-Blades for your companion(s))
-A brain bigger than a hazelnut ;P



Installation Instructions:
______________________________
- Unpack the archive
- Copy the "Nicos Gift NPC.esp" into the Data folder of your Oblivion-directory (Normally C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data)
(- Replace the original "Nicos Gift.esp" by the new one)
- Activate the mod with OMM or in the Game



Uninstall Instructions:
______________________________
Just delete the "Nicos Gift NPC.esp" from your Data folder
(Delete "Nicos Gift.esp" and copy the original file in your Data folder)



Recommended loadorder:
______________________________
Nicos Gift NPCs.esp
Nicos Gift.esp

(to make sure the original blades work to 100% - just if I made some mistake, but I don't think so^^)



Location:
______________________________
The blades are in a little Ayleiden-Chest next to the location of the original ones (Azura's Shrine).
There are 3 of each blade in the chest and additionally they respawn, so you can give the blades to more than just one companion.
The Nicos Gift.esp changes just the scripts, so the location of the original blades stays the same.



Credits & Thanks:
______________________________
All credits & thanks go to Nicoroshi and Hobbs
Thanks to my day for being boring enough to make this Mod-Add-On possible xD
And thanks to my cat for annoying me non stop while I made this mod -__-' still love you nevertheless =(^.^)= xP



Permissions:
______________________________
This is an altered modder's resource, so it can be used free as long as proper credits are given (including the credits of the original mod)
My new scripts may also be used freely as long as proper credit is given



Notes:
______________________________
- Please make sure to make a backup of your savegame BEFORE you install this mod and of your Nicos Gift.esp if you use the replacement-file
- This mod is based on version 4 of the original mod, but since it is a partly stand-alone-mod it is compatible to any version which doesn't alter the texture- or mesh-locations in the Data folder
- Since I don't use companions myself I wasn't able to test the function of this mod properly, so sorry if something doesn't work as it should :)
- I'll try to give as much support as I can, but I can't guarantee it, so please be patient if you don't get an answer and address your question to other members or the thread of the original mod ;)
- If anything i wrote just doesn't want to make any sense don't hesitate to ask. That could easily happen since English is just an foreign language for me ;P



If you liked the mod please leave a comment or even an endorsement behind :D It's always nice to know that the work wasn't for nothing^^
