Fixed metadata that required an unreleased version of MWSE.
OpenMW version initially ported.
Version 1.2
Fixed issue where picking up stacks of books/scrolls would be truncated into a single item.
Added suppression to the anti-crime mechanic. Activating a book/scroll will behave just like any other item with this feature enabled. This is disabled by default can be toggled in the MCM, and was created by Mark K. Marcell.
Added Russian localization by Mark K. Marcell.
Version 1.1.0
Improved support with scripted objects. Will correctly pick up books that don't make use of OnActivate scripts. Picked up items with script data will have that data preserved.
Version 1.0.1
Fixed issue where books with scripts would be picked up, thus bypassing their intended scripting.
Book Pickup MWSE-Lua mod
Enables picking up books by default, instead of opening them. This can be disabled by holding shift. The behavior can be inverted using the mod config menu.
To install the mod, extract the archive into your Data Files folder. There is no ESP to activate.
OpenMW: The OpenMW version requires the latest nightly of OpenMW. You will need to activate the omwscripts file. If the mod is not working, you might check the mod settings, it may be able to give you some information.
Features:
Pickup a book by default instead of opening the UI to read it. This behavior can be inverted by holding shift. The MCM has an option for changing this to inverted by default (hold shift to pick up without a UI).
Prevents picking up books you don't have legal access to on accident. This can be disabled in the MCM.
Localization in English and Russian.
