0. Description

At the end of Darkness Returns quest Karliah promises that there will
be a portal connecting Nightingale Hall to the Twilight Sepulcher, yet none
ever appears in game. This plugin attempts to fix that blunder
on the developers' part by introducing such portal into the game, but only
after the aforementioned quest is completed.

In Nightingale Hall the portal is located in the same room where you receive
Hightingale Armor during Trinity Restored quest. If you haven't yet completed
Darkness Returns quest, the portal will be inactive with just an empty alcove
in the wall (can be seen in one of the screenshots). In Twilight Sepulcher
the portal exits into Inner Sanctum, replacing one of the three portals that
are already there (the type of the portal is auto-load, in contrast
to the other two 'on-activate' ones).

Additionally the plugin fixes one aspect of The Litany of Larceny quest (only
if you haven't completed it yet), Karliah's behaviour, and Ebonmere's opening
animation not playing for some players. For the specific notes about these
fixes see Changelog section.

1. Installation

Installation of the plugin is a bit involved if you are not using mod manager.

First of all, you have to unpack the archive. Then take the file
NightingalePortal.esp and place it into your Skyrim Data folder (normally
found at C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\skyrim\Data).

After that check that the folder Scripts exists in the Data folder.
If it does not, you may simply copy folder Scripts from the archive into your
Skyrim Data folder. Otherwise, copy all the PEX-files from the corresponding
Scripts folder of the archive into the Scripts folder found in the Skyrim
Data directory. If you have any conflicts while copying, you'll have to tread
carefully because this likely means this mod is uncompatible with some other
mod you've previously installed (or you're updating this mod over some older
version). In such a case you have to check every individual mod and decide
which files to keep and which to replace.

You can skip copying the PSC-files from Scripts\Source folder, because those
are source files for the compiled PEX-files and are only needed if you're
a developer yourself and planning on extending this mod.

Do not forget to check the plugin file in the DATA FILES section
of the launcher.

2. Uninstallation

Go into the Data folder of your Skyrim installation and delete the file named
NightingalePortal.esp. After that go into the Scripts folder within the Data
folder and delete the following files there (delete them only if you
originally copied them here as described in the Installation section of this
readme):

QF_TG09Post_000E1782.pex
QF_TGLarceny_0004C6C2.pex
TG09BlackPoolTriggerScript.pex
TG09PostExitTriggerScript.pex
TGLarcenyItemScript.pex

Deleting the PEX-files is necessary if you want to completely remove
the effect of having this plugin. It is best to uninstall the plugin while
your character is not standing inside either Twilight Sepulcher
or Nightingale Hall.
