You can start the Ritual quests by talking to the faculty - Tolfdir, Drevis, Faralda, Colette, Phinis. For now all of them are available right after you've been accepted to the College. More side quests will be included as the conditions for these will be adjusted. I just wonder how many Arch-Mages there has been who had no idea these quests ever existed. If you have a good suggestion for quest conditions or possibly encountered a problem while doing a quest that depends on a condition like quests being completed when they aren't, then make a suggestion on how it should be handled differently. They just met you and are already ready to admit your skills outmatch them, don't let it overtake your ego.
If you skip the Gate Sigil Stone and do not follow the Familiar, you are trespassing! The Familiar might bug you and not appear - this is unintentional but might happen under some conditions. Place this mod at the bottom of your load order if you don't get the effect or the Familiar when you stop on the Sigil. Winterhold exterior mods might undo the script if they overwrite.
This mod is a stand-alone (and fine-tuned) edition of the Winterhold College part of Idle Dialogue Overhaul. This first release version is 5.0 with similar College as the aforementioned mod version 5.0 but without all the other numerous edits in it.
Okay I've been using IDO forever now, and the College edit is the only part that has consistently given me headaches (and is my favorite part of the mod). I assume this is a better place to discuss the College edits, even though I still use IDO and not this (yet).
Anyways, every time I activate the Familiar, it stays on the sigil and just floats around in circles. After hours of binary reduction of load order, I found the two plugins that cause the bug: ETaC - Complete Taverns Patch.esp and Bring Out Your Dead.esp. Here's the thing: it only happens when both plugins are activated. Either on their own, and the Familiar (appears to) work fine (this was a c*** to track down).
With both, the Famliar spins around and First Lessons sorta bugs out and the Ritual Spell quest options aren't available as they should be.
Everything seems to have gone smoothly except that Tolfdir won't engage in conversation. I wouldn't care, but I can't enter Saarthal. He never goes or won't talk about it and I don't know how to trigger it.
