About this mod

Pour yourself some water from a waterskin for those pesky thirst mods. Refill the waterskin in lakes, ponds, and rivers or fill it up in the rain. Never be thirsty again!

CMWaterskins Readme v1.1
By: Critterman
Requires OBSE v.1800 or higher (http://obse.silverlock.org/)

Description
============
This is just a small mod I made real quick for myself to help deal with the Extended Game Mechanics' thirst system (http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=30790). I decided some others might want to use this as well. Its easy to install and easy to use, so it won't do any harm to try out if you have a thirst mod like Extended Game Mechanics, or you just like to roleplay. This is an alternate to "Shads Waterbucket Plus", a mod that requires you to download and install in a certain confusing order with Extended Game Mechanics. You can just activate this mod and you're ready to go.

Details
============
When you first start the game with CMWaterskin.esp activated a waterskin will be automatically added to your inventory. To fill it, either go underwater for 5 seconds or stand under the rain for 30 seconds. Once filled, you can click the waterskin in your inventory to fill a total of 4 flasks of water. The water from your waterskin will be transfered to the flasks until it is empty. You can drink these flasks to releive your thirst. Fill the waterskin back up to make more flasks.

The waterskin and flasks both have new textures but their models are just potion bottles. I'm not a modeller.

This mod requires OBSE v1800 or higher. It will not work completely without OBSE.

Installation
============
1. Unpack the .zip file somewhere convenient
2. Highlight all the files and drag them into your Oblivion\Data folder
3. Open Data Files or your favorite mod utility and activate the mod
4. Start the game via the obse_launcher
5. Drink water!

Compatibility
============
This mod is pretty much compatible with everything. It has been tested to work well with Extended Game Mechanics, but I have not tested this with other drink/thirst mods. If you find this to work with another necessity mod then please tell me so I can include it in this section.

Bugs/Issues
============
Due to a limitation in the Oblivion engine, the weight of the waterskin does not imidiately update when water is transfered to a flask unless you click the waterskin again or exit and re-enter the inventory menu. This may confuse you into thinking there is one more quarter left in the waterskin than there actually is.

Please report any more bugs you find to me.

Change Log
============
6/16/10: version 1.0 - initial release.
6/17/10: version 1.1 - made water skin fill while its raining ONLY outside. Also changed the time it takes the waterskin to fill in the rain from 5 seconds to 30 seconds.
