About this mod
Bound Longbow Arrows no longer sold separately. Now you get some when you use the spell "Bound Longbow."
- Permissions and credits
When you use the spell "Bound Longbow," you automatically get one Bound Arrow added to your inventory which is also automatically equipped.
Once you shoot it off, another one is added to you and equipped. Like this, you can just keep on firing.
As soon as the spell runs out, you no longer have the Bound Arrow in your inventory.
DETAILS ABOUT THE BOUND ARROWS
Bound Arrows are the same as Daedric Arrows but without the weight and value. Nothing else on the Bound Arrows has been adjusted. The Daedric Arrows remain untouched.
They are also unique. All your other arrows will remain untouched. Unless you equip those, shoot some poor old Dunmer in the knee and spend them like that. No shame in doing so, N'Wah.
ABOUT CHEATING
If one tries to cheat, one may perhaps end up with some Bound Arrows in their inventory. Those have no value and no weight. And they're also removed the next time you use the spell "Bound Longbow" again. Alternatively, they can just be dropped.
I recommend you just play normally.
ABOUT ACCIDENTS
Should you accidentally drop the arrow while you have a Bound Longbow active, worry not, because you will get a Bound Arrow automatically back and it'll even equip it on its own.
You don't need to worry about a thing since it really takes care of itself.
HOW TO USE (IMPORTANT)
This whole thing is working but there's a tiny task you need to do to get it working. For whatever reason. Here it is:
1. Load up your save and SUCCESSFULLY use the spell "Bound Longbow."
2. Now with it active, save and reload.
3. There you go. Now you have the Bound Arrow.
After doing this, just keep on playing and you don't have to worry about any of this ever again. The rest will all happen on its own.
REQUIREMENTS
- Morrowind
- Bloodmoon
- Tribunal
For the sole reason of the Morrowind CK being buggy and making changes to GameSettings unless you load up the 2 DLCs. We all should have the DLCs by now. The GOTY edition of Morrowind is pretty cheap on Steam.
INSTALLATION
Just use NMM or install manually.
COMPATIBILITY
Anything editing the Bound Longbow is incompatible. Installing this after whatever edits it should make it work however. In theory.
Only 3 things are in this plugin:
- An edited Bound Longbow (Attached Script)
- A custom script written by me, handling the Bound Arrow
- Bound Arrow (Edited Duplicate of a Daedric Arrow)
PLANS
I think that at some point I will retexture the Bound Arrow but I'm not sure how. Bound weapons are pretty much just Daedric ones with the enchantment shader over it. Perhaps a blue-ish teint would be good but not sure about that. Let me know in the post section.
Also, should you encounter any issues, let me know in the post section. This is the first that I've used the Morrowind CK and scripting here is completely different. The early days of what became Papyrus as we know it now. I've done plenty of Skyrim and Fallout 4 mods with tons of scripting in them which work, but this? THIS?! N'WAH!
