Craft Infinite Charge Weapons v1.0

By: Rogue Shadow

I. Description

The player can use either Azura's Star or the Black Star to upgrade the atronach forge in the College of Winterhold's Midden. The upgraded forge can grant infinite charges to a variety of unique weapons. Place either star in the pedestal. In the offering box, place a daedra heart and either a filled black soul gem or a filled grand soul gem with your weapon of choice. Pull the lever.

IV. Known Issues

I designed this mod to conflict as little as possible. That said, there are some unavoidable problems with this kind of endeavor.

1) I rewrote the atronach forge scripts, so any mod that also makes changes to those scripts will conflict. Any mod that adds recipes to the forge will be compatible, however.

2) Any weapon you choose to craft will lose any tempering (ie, your "Legendary Volendrung" will become a base "Volendrung" again). This is unavoidable. Fortunately, I made new tempering recipes, so you can go re-temper any weapon.

3) If you use a mod that replaces the weapon's model with a new model from a non-default directory (for example, InsanitySorrow's Unique Uniques), the NEW weapon will not reflect that mod's changes. The vanilla weapons, however, will be left modified. Your options: a. simply play with that vanilla weapon and limited enchantments, b. make a patch (very easy to do), c. ask me politely to make a patch. Same goes for any mod that changes the base values of a weapon - weapon speed, damage, etc - texture and enchantment changes should be fine, though.

V. Permissions

You're free to re-upload this mod anywhere, make patches, translate, etc. No need to ask for permission. If you're feeling polite, drop me a PM on the BethSoft or Nexus boards to let me know what you're planning, and I'll add it to the mod's page. Thanks!

If you'd like to see support for another weapon added from Skyrim, Dawnguard, Dragonborn, or a popular mod, please ask, but I won't guarantee I'll do it. Same goes for any patches with regard to Section IV part 3.
