// Introduction
I wanted a mod that tells me what skill a skill book levels up without having to look it up on the UESP.
Edits all skill book titles, not the ID or anything else. This includes skill books added by Bloodmoon as well.
// Features
The file contains a comparison image and two .ESPs:
SkillNameSkillBooks_Complete-Skills.ESP
Puts the complete skill in the book title, and greatly shortens existing names.
Serial books like the 36 Lessons of Vivec keep their numbering to avoid confusion.
ex:
- 36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 33 --> (Medium Armor) 36 Lessons, S.33
- Charwich-Koniinge, Volume 2 --> (Hand-to-hand) Charwich-K. 2
- The Wolf Queen, Book VIII --> (Enchant) The Wolf Queen 8
SkillNameSkillBooks_Shortened-Skills.ESP
Puts an abbreviated skill name in the book title, and shortens some existing names. Serial books keep their numbering to avoid confusion.
This version is for those who want the functionality, but want to keep some immersion.
ex:
- 36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 33 --> (MED) 36 Lessons of Vivec, S.33
- Charwich-Koniinge, Volume 2 --> (HTH) Charwich-Koniinge, Vol. 2
- The Wolf Queen, Book VIII --> (ENC) The Wolf Queen, Book VIII
A complete list of abbreviated skills is found at the bottom of the mod page.
// Installation
Drag and drop your preferred .ESP into Data Files folder and activate the .ESP.
Or, install using your preferred mod manager.
// Compatibility
Works with both vanilla Morrowind and OpenMW.
Anything that edits skill books in any way will need a merged object patch.
