===============
1. DESCRIPTION
===============

So you're playing your game, when suddenly calipers, calipers, calipers everywhere. Calipers in containers, calipers on naked bandits, everywhere you look...calipers.
You've been hit with Frans' caliper bug.

Fear not, install this simple plug-in. You'll be granted a lesser power to vanquish those calipers and start getting Francesco's loot again.

===============
2. Requirements
===============

Francesco's v.5.0 or higher (http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/40190/?)

- The spell should work on earlier versions, but there were already fixes in place for this in earlier versions. Version 5.0 replaced the in-game menu with ini
customization. An unintended side effect was the inability to reset the loot lists in-game except by a series of console commands.

- Frans v 5.0 and up require obse, and so does v 1.1 of this spell. If you use an older version of Frans and for whatever reason don't want to use obse, you can
use version 1.0 of the caliper bug fix spell and it will work.

Users of Custom Spell Icons (http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/26196/?) will receive a custom icon for the spell. This feature is optional.

========================
3. INSTALLING THE PLUGIN
========================

Extract files to your Oblivion\Data directory.

=====================
4. PLAYING THE PLUGIN
=====================

Be sure to activate the plug-in and launch your game. The first time you load a savegame, you'll be granted the lesser power of Caliper Bug Banishing.
Cast the spell to reset the loot lists and Frans' calipers should be replaced as intended by items from the loot lists.

The effect should be immediate, no need to wait out respawns or anything. If you notice a container with calipers (I use RefScope to make sure they're Frans' calipers
and not vanilla calipers), close the container, cast the spell. The calipers should be replaced with a Frans item.
