Author notes
Permissions: This mod is intended as a modders resource. you are free to use all it's assets as you wish (a little cred would be nice). Just keep it and any mods you use it in on nexus (orTESA) for now. REMEMBER if you use the TESA resources as the meshes/textures, you MUST credit then again.
You'll have to contact FrankFamily for permission to use his work outside of this mod, He's super cool so I wouldn't worry about it :)
File credits
Crickey! It's worse then the Oscars.
Huge Credit to InsanitySorrow and all the folks at TESA, especially TESA's Skyrim Resource Kit.
FrankFamily for his super Leather model and putting up with my crap :)
SKSE, Creation Kit, Beth, Blender, Nifskope, Gimp, BSAopt Dudes. You do this for free (well not Beth, but you know what i mean) so now i have to. Balls.
Gopher's Mod Sanctuary really is the entry drug for all this crazyness
Cipscis light switch script at http://www.creationkit.com/Light_Switch was a quick solution to adding a white 'blind out' effect during the day and a 'black out' effect during the night. The mod doesn't use this any more but still mega kudos dude.
InsanitySorrow; His DragonBane redo was the first skyrim mod i downloaded, still remains one of my favs and said to me "Yes!, That's what I'm talking about, I think I'll try Modding". Curse you Sir, Curse you.
Iron and Dwarven Telescopes now animated. Open/close depending on if the they are 'Ready' or 'sheathed'. Also animated in Inventory.
Weather Effects:
All scopes are now effected by Rain and Snow. Rain obscures your vision some and Snow considerably more. Pics under Images Tab
Entry Level Telescope:
The Leather cased telescope has had it's zoom reduced and it's crafting requirements changed to use Refined Malachite. No Diamonds of any kind needed for this one.
This scope now has a simply amazing model and textures by Modder FrankFamily. Available with the KWT0.93FrankFamilyPatch.
Please see '0.93' under Forums Tab for more.
Iron Telescope
There is now a super high Rez version by Modder FrankFamily. Available with the KWT093FrankFamilyIronTelescopeReplacer in the optional files section.
WHAT IS THIS MOD?
Add's non combat/non Bow 'FOV' options for the Player in the guise of Lore Friendly craftable Telescopes with working zoom. Download, Craft, Equip and use as if it was a shield (Block to active) Check out the sticky under the Posts Tab for more.
MODELS, TEXTURES AND SCRIPTING
The Leather cased Telescope is by Modder FrankFamily who totally got the vibe I wanted for this scope but just don't have the talent to make. Please help me say thank you by checking out his other work, especially his latest.

Three Telescopes and Textures by InsanitySorrow!
These Meshes and Texures are either part of TESA's Skyrim Resource Kit, http://tesalliance.org/forums/index.php?/files/file/1330-the-tesa-skyrim-resource-kit-project/
or (The SpyGlass) Insanity's Junk Yard over on TESA http://tesalliance.org/forums/index.php?/files/file/1427-insanitys-junk-yard/
full credit to them for excellent work, especially Insanity's generosity letting me use them :)
Please remember you must credit them again if you use them.
Modder Volvaga0's pawprints are all over the script. Top man, wouldn't have got this far without him.
You can find him at Dwemer Goggles and Scouter, one of the best mods on the nexus.

The Animations would not have been possible without the work done by Modder Nez and Dwarven Mechanical Equipment
http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/14060
if you want to know how to animate objects/weapons this is where you go. Unbelievable modding at work here.
Like Real Ale and Tobacco some thing are just better together. Modder Ecceau's 'Guess the Distance - Perceptive Scouting'
http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/30816
is something your just going to have to take a look at if you use this mod. This guy can seriously script.
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT! This Mod requires the latest version of SKSE. If you don't know about SKSE check out Gopher's video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTGnQIiNVqA
or head over to http://skse.silverlock.org/
Click the Download with Manager button in the files section to download to NMM. Activate the mod in NMM.
To manually install, just download the file and extract the files into the data folder.
COMPATABILITY
Fully compatible with SKYUI, IHUD and all that other cool stuff you may think will explode if you download this mod. I use them as well, so no worries.
THE THINGS THIS MOD WILL NOT DO!
1:Give you the perfect Telescope. The script may take a second to fire and/or close. (Depending on how many scripts are running, how 'busy' your loaded cells are, how many mods your running and so on.) Really It's how good your system is that will determine the speed and smoothness of the zoom effect.
What you see through the Telescope depends on your Display settings. uGrids, LOD's all that kind of stuff. this mod doesn't touch them, only FOV.
Don't expect Perfection, this is my first ever mod! (I've added some ramblings about the technical limitations of this mod under the Forums Tab. Don't read them, there boring)
2.Completely screw your custom FOV settings and Save games. Don't panic! The mods script reads your FOV ini setting and returns it to the original value when it's done.
