Update 2012-04-03
Maximum number of books per container upgraded to 512. That should be enough for one of every book in skyrim.
This mod does not affect vanilla bookshelves at all. It is an alternate BookShelfContainer and BookShelfTrigger script based on the vanilla script but utilizing different data structures. This allows each BookShelfContainer to be linked up to 512 book markers and have unlimited number of BookShelfTriggers (in comparison to Vanilla's 18 book markers and 4 book shelf triggers).
So really the title is a lie, there are still limits they are just significantly larger.
In the LoTModRes.esp is a cell named aaaLotDev which has 4 bookshelves in various states of being constructed and the cell contains 4 books describing how each step differs from vanilla. The final set is actually a two bookcase unit with storage for 180 books in one container.
Instead of a PlayerBookShelfContainer you will use the included LoTBookShelfContainer and instead of PlayerBookShelfTrigger you will use LoTBookShelfTrigger. If you use the Vanilla scripts there will be no changes at all.
The LotBookShelfContainer will have a link ref to the first DefaultBookShelfBookMarker with a keyword of BookShelfBook01. Each subsequent book marker will have a link ref to the next book in the chain with the same BookShelfBook01 keyword.
The LotBookShelfContainer will have a link ref to the first LotBookShelfTrigger with a keyword of BookShelfTrigger01. Each trigger will have a link ref to the next trigger with the same keyword.
PlayerBookShelfClick triggers are unchanged (Needs Player Activation set).
The collision planes to keep players from dragging books are also unchanged. (Needs to be L_UNIDENTIFIED)
