loose files just overwrite compressed files in case of conflict as far as i understand. as well as the fact that you can put alot of ESL files without it taking up ESP slots. useful for games that have limited plugins
I use the MCM version of this mod but i wanted to come here and say thank you for this simple yet extremely useful mod. i am one of those people that likes to collect every book i come across in an attempt to make my own library. and this mod makes it possible to do so without picking up 20 of each book. Thank You again for this wonderful QOL mod :-)
Also very helpful for those, who collects different books to fill shelves with them in player homes! You clearly don't want multiple copies of the same book, cuz why would anyone keep several copies of the same book?! LOL For the realism and immersion sake you would want to fill shelves all with different books and different tomes! In that regard this helps immensely!
... What? So not only does this mod NOT work (I have used it when I was using the built in mod manager and I loved it) but when I use it though Nexus mod manager it straight up PREVENTS THE GAME FROM LAUNCHING. I have no idea why, can anyone give advice?
Your post is confusing. You say this mod doesn't work, then that it does because it worked with a different mod manager. Then you note that it keeps your game from launching when using NMM. Not sure if you realize it, but you're making it sound like the mod is at fault-- when clearly it isn't.
If a mod is keeping your game from launching, it usually means you're lacking one or more requirements that the mod depends on (this mod doesn't have any dependencies, so that's not the problem here). OR it may be a problem with your mod installation, or even the order in which your mods load. Try sorting your load order using LOOT. That may fix the problem for you. https://loot.github.io/
I absolutely LOVE this mod! I am a bibliophile and wanted to get a complete library of every book in Skyrim (even including letters like the fake letters from Faendal and Sven to Camilla in Riverwood, which I had to go back and pickpocket to get!), and before I had this mod I was using an Excel list that someone had made to keep track. Now I actually use both (the Excel list more so I can mark quest books/notes/letters that I've gotten but had to give up and couldn't get back... yes, I'm THAT OCD!).
I have a question, though: is there a way to mark a particular book as "unread" after I've read it? The reason I ask is because the librarian at the College of Winterhold will ask me to find a book as part of a quest and I'd like to mark that book as "unread" after I've found it so that I will be able to more easily see it again to add it to my personal library. (I have noticed that these books are not exclusively quest books because I've sometimes found them before he asks for them, but when I get the quest to find them, the quest marker does send me to whatever location the book can be found.)
I second this question. I started collecting books late in the game, and I would like to effectively "reset all books" so that I can easily spot the ones I don't have.
Hi duggelz. Vortex Mod Manager flags the esp file as incompatible. Given the number of endorsements this mod has, I'm assuming it's a false positive by Vortex. Have not had chance to playtest yet to verify theory but thought u may want to know. :)

Thanks again for such an awesome mod!
