Hello everyone. Long time no see.

I am working on Wearable Lanterns 3.0. It will feature:

* Greatly improved and optimized script code. I am refactoring things now. The original main script was 4700+ lines long. It is now 2600 and dropping fast.

* New paper lanterns that can be worn or carried. Consumes oil, if oil burning is turned on. Requires Dragonborn.

* Candle Lanterns of the North will be integrated into the main Wearable Lanterns mod.

* Greatly improved reliability. I really just didn't understand how quest Aliases were maintained internally and what their persistence characteristics were in the past. Now, I do. You shouldn't have any more instances of the lantern just "not working".

* Full SkyUI Mod Configuration Menu support.

* Optional oil / pollen level widget for SkyUI users.

* Fixed the bug related to multiple bottles of lantern oil in your inventory causing the oil to be used too quickly.

* Add the missing firefly in a jar mesh to the BSA.

* Improved follower support.

* Fix several issues related to papyrus log errors.

* A couple of other features I don't want to mention in case I don't get around to them.

Stay tuned, this is being actively worked on now. Thanks.

    It's wonderful to know that you are working on the next version.  Wearable Lanterns is one of my favourite all-time mods.  Can't wait for release!

    Make sure to add compatibility for people who use mods that change the lantern mesh like SMIM or Rounded Lanterns. I remember when using Candle Lanterns of the North that the custom mesh was always switched to the vanilla mesh.

    I am very excited about this. Can't wait for the new version.

    Awesome mod you made a great job with it, but i think it would be nice if the lantern worked with replacement textures like the one from SMIM showing a nicer lantern instead of the vanilla one. either way i apreciate all your work, good luck.

    Is it possible to add different light color variations? I like the current color, but it looks like an artificially manufactured electric light; not a candle warm light....
