Skyrim Special Edition

This wall of text belies how easy it is to configure this mod!

Mod is highly configurable through its _DISTRI.ini. To configure the mod, simply open the _DISTRI.ini file with a word program - and save edits.

For example, if you want to see facial piercings on only half of the NPCs, you can simply edit the _DISTRI.ini file. The following example reduces the distribution chance to 50% chance.

  • Spell = 0xD63~SPIDFacialPiercingsforNPCs.esp|NONE|ActorTypeNPC|NONE|NONE|NONE|50

The second example illustrates how to distribute a facial piercing to Gerdur, and only Gerdur.
  • Spell = 0xD63~SPIDFacialPiercingsforNPCs.esp|NONE|0001347C|NONE|NONE|NONE|100

The third example illustrates how to distribute facial piercings to the Blades Faction at a 25% chance.
  • Spell = 0xD63~SPIDFacialPiercingsforNPCs.esp|NONE|00072834|NONE|NONE|NONE|25

The webpage of Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) provides additional ways to tailor this mod in ways that players want. A bit of knowledge of Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) will be useful to achieve specific designs. 

The mod is currently configured to distribute and equip facial piercings to all NPCs. If you do not want the mod to distribute to all NPCs, simply add a semi-colon (;) in front of the distribution syntax for ActorTypeNPC. You can also reduce the distribution chance to 0. For example,
  • ;Spell = 0xD63~SPIDFacialPiercingsforNPCs.esp|NONE|ActorTypeNPC|NONE|NONE|NONE|0
You do not need to do both. Either adding a semi-colon or reducing the %-chance to 0 will stop the distribution.

The _DISTRI.ini is preloaded (but not activated) to omit (most) Guard NPCs. Simply delete the semicolon in front of this syntax if you wish to use it instead (be sure to place a semicolon in front of the syntax with just ActorTypeNPC if you use the syntax that prevents (most) Guards from receiving a piercing).

Run one syntax - not both.
Never delete the semi-colon in front of the text that describes the particular distribution syntax in the _DISTRI.ini.
