    Version 2 is up! Compatible with latest Become a Bard 5 and above!!
    Become A Bard direct download link

    Without Become A Bard, this mod WILL CRASH!

    Unfortunately this cannot be ported to SE. Sorry, but Become A Bard SE has a different esp name, BecomeABard.esp which makes a lot more sense, but also makes an INVALID master requirement for this Add-On. I have PM'ed Pevey but got no reply. I believe it would have to be re-built from scratch in SE.

    I have a modding book on Amazon, "Newbies Guide to Modding Skyrim: Tips and Tricks for the Creation Kit." Available in print, Kindle, and audiobook (Audible, Amazon, iTunes)!

    The direct download, "http://bardsandmerchants.com/downloads/LPBards_5_0_6.7z" isn't working, the website appears to be dead.
    The version I have archived is LPBards_5_0_7...which is allegedly newer; I was wondering what he difference was.

      Hey, thank you! The dances are all vanilla anims, and I think they're just randomly fired by Become A Bard.

    Is there any news about porting this expansion to SSE ?
    Become a bard SE hasn't been updated for almost 2 years now, so I doubt it will see any update soon.

      Yes thanks for reminding me. In that case I guess I'll do it, later today.

    I don't suppose you could add a video with a sample of a few of the tracks?

      Perhaps re-install Become A Bard? That sounds like a problem with that mod, not this, but I have no idea. They all work for me.

    Does anyone know if there is a way to interrupt a song and move. I love the mod and the songs/instrumentals but sometimes a girl has to move and the original mod seems to lock you out of doing anything else. I'd ask on the original authors page but its locked out.

    Thanks for the expansion.. so nice to have more songs.

      I don't believe so, but I don't know for sure. I do know that to make the Player act in a scene, controls -must- be locked, and then unlocked when the scene is over; it's just how the CK was designed.

      I can always stop a song by playing another, using magic, shouting... I would suggest experimenting.

      If you hit the Z key, it should stop the song in progress. If you're playing for an inn or a jarl, you'll have to fully finish a song for it to count as a performance.

    Are there plans to update this for Special Edition? For that matter, does it even need to be updated? There's a SE version of Become A Bard already. If I just load this up into SE with B.A.B. already installed, should it work?

      And I have already found the answer to my second question. This won't work if you just manually load it in Special Edition, because the S.E. version of Become A Bard has changed the name of the ESP file. It used to be called LPBard.esp, and now it is called BecomeABard.esp. That means this expansion suffers from the missing master problem if loaded up in S.E.

      In short, it needs to be updated to work with the S.E. version of B.A.B. before it will function in S.E.

      Which brings me back to my first question. Any plans to do that?

      I'll see about doing that. I had not known about BaB being updated for SSE.

      Neato. I'm glad you're going to try it. Become a Bard is one of my favorite mods, and I really appreciated the extra music you added in. It was terrific. You've probably already found the Nexus page for the updated BaB, but here it is just in case:

      Yes I found it right after writing. I messaged Pevey and she said BaB isn't really finished for SSE yet. There is still some backend programming to be fixed, so she doesn't recommend updating/porting BaB Anduniel Ex. just yet. But yeah, we will at some point. And thank you, glad you like my songs

    Please anyone! Viarmo has no dialog option for sale. I've tried everything, have checked in TES5Edit, I've scoured the internet and nothing. The author of the mod insists that this is due to problems with other mods and it does not provide assistance for this, but I checked if there is any incompatibility and leaving it to the end of the load order, I do not imagine that this can be blamed on any other mod. Does anyone have a solution to the problem?

    Everything else is working perfectly. But I have to use the MCM menu to have all the books, and as the menu puts it, is cheating. I can also use the mod "givemeitem" to see all derivatives of mod items, but there do not find the horn and other things he would sell.
    Oh, and I have additional work from hin.

    I've noticed that the Nexus version is shy of 8 MB, but the Steam Workshop version has it listed as being over 700 MB, is this a mistake on the Workshop? If not, why the difference? Compression?

    Thanks.

      It's literally the exact same file, under 8 MB.

    Nice mod but for some reason instrumental songbook doesn't work for me. It is treated just as regular (meaning even when I learn instrumental book, I get the regular playlist and if I already learned normal book, when trying to use Instrumental one it asks me if I want to forget all the songs from this book).
