IF YOU EXPERIENCE ANY ISSUES with this mod, please make sure you have followed standard troubleshooting procedures for Skyrim before asking for help. I cannot promise support for any of my mods unless you BEGIN A BUG REPORT in the "bugs" tab of this page.
If you submit a report, please explain the issue as carefully as possible, and provide exact steps required - preferably from the start of a new game - to reliably reproduce the issue. If I'm unable to reproduce the problem, it's less likely that I will be able to help solve it.
ALL OF MY MODS are dedicated to the PUBLIC DOMAIN. This means that NO PERMISSION IS NECESSARY to reproduce them all or in part in any way you wish. Keep in mind that some mods that include content by other authors may or may not require their permission. Also consider that uploading new versions of any mod will probably imbue you with plenty of support requests from the community, and handling them can be a large responsibility.
My activity as a Skyrim mod author has decreased greatly over the months and years, and it is unlikely that new features will be added to any of them, so if you are interested in officially taking over authorship of this or any of my projects, feel free to contact me.
I just wanted to say thank you for this mod as one dev to another. It makes a great partner for CWRS, the civil war mod I first created ten years ago. Especially with the recent direction I've taken with sidestepping a lot of tiresome vanilla stuff, as you have also done. I've recommended for use on the cwrs page. And I cannot play without unbound now myself.
I love this mod so much, but DAMN there are some unpleasant issues! The mod decides to skip most of the introductory quests on most of the companions so you have no idea what they are about, what their story is, who they are, etc. I haven't seen any way to disable this. That's very unfortunate. You feel like you're missing important aspects of the game. It would be really nice to disable the Dragon Wall Enabled, or the Random Dragon Encounters Enabled messages, so you can be scared crapless. What is the point of making it random otherwise? The message ruins it imo. I've been having problems with accessing the prison, the mine before Dragon's Bridge and I think another location. The doors just won't work and you can't get in. I've read that is because of this mod. (If it isn't, I apologize, but please tell me what it is and how to fix if you know otherwise!)
It would be really great if the mod author would revise these few things. Just give people the option to play through the personal quests if they want. Most people just want to skip the long introductory thing. Give an option to skip through all the crap and start from your head on the block! Then this mod would be perfect.
When entering the area in which the Companions are first introduced, I've experienced no issues with what you are describing, and also their subsequent quests. And I do agree that there should be a way to disable those generic "Dragons Enabled" messages, or even make it into a more immersive message such as "There is a change in the air…" or something along those lines, y'know, to make it more ominous. I haven't tested the prison situation you mentioned here, but I will keep an eye out for that. I think a lot of modders have largely (and unfairly) abandoned Oldrim, or simply moved on with their lives, and that is fair enough, but it is unfortunate for those who chose to stick to enjoying the wonderful original game with all of its ups and downs.
I'm not referring to the Companions. I'm referring to the companion NPCs you can get when you do the quest for them. As far as I know, Faendahl (?) and Sven are the only ones that have kept the introductory 'quest'. NPCS like Dunore just have "follow me" as the first dialogue option. It ruins immersion.
What do you mean it's bugged? It skips the whole main quest, unfortunately. I think it should give you the option. Everything is skipped. Even the first quest with the Jarl of Falkreath.
I've never had a problem with that at all. I think you're having a problem with another mod. I've played through about 100 times (I'm not kidding). Never once had a problem.
I don't have SKUI installed, so I get special power to toggle settings. Is it possible to remove that power permanently? I don't want to toggle settings.
Just to let know that the Mod works without SkyUi, showing PopUp windows the old-fashioned way (probably less customizable, but works fine). As for magic, ignoring is better.
"I also don't like the mandatory use of SkyUi to have MCM and play practically without it (ignoring one or another more demanding mod). Opening the MCM all the time also made me tired and SkyUi Away makes me uncomfortable to have that every time in a New Game disable Errors in MCM."
Starting as a member of the Forsworn faction seemed to work at first but unfortunately, it didn't make all of them friendly. In fact, the mod doesn't even add you to the Forsworn faction (i.e. 43599) and even if you manually add yourself to it later on, there's the Druadach problem. The Forsworn at Druadach aren't members of the actual Forsworn faction (43599), so they attack you on sight, so you need to be a member of the Druadach faction (E3609) too.
