About this mod
A patch to make Moonlight Tales essentials by spwned, al99, nsJones compatible with Growl - Werebeasts of Skyrim by EnaiSiaion.
The mod removes a couple of MCM entries in MTE mod and modifies sligthly the beastform spell script in order to fix a bug when using both mods together.

Thank you very much! <3
- Removes MTE's Hotkeys functionality (Power Jump, Special Howl, Revert Form) and the "Howl at the Moon" function from the MCM: the reason why i deleted this is because there was no way to disable them properly and i just wanted the skin system.
If you want them back i might renable them in another version.Already done that! The Alternative untouched MCM version is now available for download, and it can be used standalone! - Fixes the armor bug when reverting back: by copying a little bit of code from MTE MCM script and placing it in the BeastForm spell script, now the very first time you will get lycanthropy it will applied the MTE's way, so that the armor bug doesn't happen and the skin system works fine. MTE bit of code will only run once, regardless of which of the 3 ways Growl gives to become werewolf.
- Skips Growl's messagebox: Growl lets you choose with a messagebox between Werebear or Werewolf, because of the lines of code i added the check which trigger that messagebox never occur. This is not a problem since the same lines are there just loaded slightly before. You can always become a werebear by using MTE's MCM to select the werebear shape (as you would with any other skin), or use Growl MCM to select werebear (i haven't actually tested this though).
- Adds a messagebox the first time you transform: This wasn't planned originally but after some testing i noticed that during the quest C03Rampage if a debug messagebox runs right before my added code, the skin system has enough time to load the chosen skin. This is a very specific occasion which only happens during that quest, without the message box the skin (assuming you set one in the MCM first) would load from the second time you transform, the first time is just vanilla one. I decided to leave the messagebox in (which will load ONLY the first time you morph either by quest, potion or Growl's dream mechanic) and played with it by writing a small "roleplay-like" fitting message.
Installation
- Use a mod manager of your choice, i use MO2 so it takes care of installing the loose files safely and without problems.
- Manually: open the zip file, then drag and drop the data folder into your Skyrim directory, it will ask to replace two or three scripts, say yes. This mod uses loose files so be careful to back up the following scripts yourself: (MTE_Quest_MCMScript.pex, MTE_Ref_PlayerScript.pex, werewolfchangeeffectscript.pex).
Load Order
I loaded the mods like these when testing:
- Brevi_MoonlightTalesEssentials.esp
- Growl - Werebeasts Of Skyrim.esp
- Moonlight Growl - skin selector and armor bufgix.esp
F.A.Q.:
Q: Will you port this to SSE?
A: I only own Legendary Edition so i can't do that myself. Plus i have no experience with SSE and the differences in the Creation Kit/scripting with Oldrim. You are free to use this mod as a base to achieve porting.
Reccommended Mods:
Werewolf Revert Effect And Animation (DAR) by CinnaMewRolls : adds a cool animation when turning back, complete with sound. If you want to use it with this mod, make sure to choose the Growl plugin during its installation in the FOMOD and to disable "Stagger Animation" in MTE MCM while in game. Tried and it is good stuff.
