Current version of the game "Special Edition" + current Vortex versionmakes: Crossbows and bolts are invisible which breaks immersion. (steel crossbow is fine tho...)
Thanks for the great mod mate! I used to run this back in 2013, looked absolutely fantastic. The thing is, we're on 2023 now and I'm on SE v1.6.640, but I would really love to use this mod again!
So, does anybody know if there is there a way to make this work for SE?
Despite the age of this mod, it seems to fit what I want without the issues present in later mods like Legendary Crossbows and Bows and Proper Crossbow Integration where very few of the crossbows have models when dropped on the ground or are invisible when wielded by NPCs. I did have to go in and edit the quivers with Nifskope (big shout-out to corsairmechanic's post for helping to set me down the path for that) in order for the bolts to not end up floating oddly off to the side when combined with the Belt Quiver mod, but once I had the idea down, that wasn't bad at all. Now to go shoot some baddies with my dragon skull crossbow.
Some further use has revealed something a bit funny. At least the dragonbone bolts still seem to have the old issue that the original Dawnguard bolts had of floating either just in or outside of whatever they hit rather than actually penetrating the target.
My only issue with this mod is that crossbows were already busted as all heck. So making even more powerful versions of them is pretty dang silly, unless your set up is more difficult than vanilla to balance it out.

Non-LL Version = Only the player can have the crossbows"
Can you put this information into the main mod description as well as into the individual download description please?
It's imo very important.
Also, I love the LL Version, it's so much more fun when enemies also can have Crossbows instead of just Bows!
