About this mod

Allows you to melt down most weapons added by Expanded Skyrim Weaponry and retrieve the ingots invested in their forging - excluding Unenchanted Staves, Dragonbone and Daedric material weapons added by the mod.

Requirements
Permissions and credits


As someone who greatly enjoys playing with Arthmoor's Ars Metallica on their load order, and thinks that melting down weapons should have been a basic functionality and part of the base game, I find it jarring that I am able to melt vanilla weapons and armour (thanks to his mod), but not those added by custom armour or weapon packs.

There is a mod that allows you to melt every metallic piece of equipment under the sun on Oldrim, but it requires SKSE, and thus I don't expect to see it on the SSE Nexus in the near future.

Over time, I've made several mods for my own personal use that allowed me to melt down equipment added by some of the larger weapon packs on the SSE Nexus. I thought others may be interested in this functionality as much as I, and after asking for permission, am now uploading a Meltdown mod for Expanded Skyrim Weaponry.



As its namesake indicates, this mod's foremost feature is that it allows the player to melt all of the weapons added by the Expanded Skyrim Weaponry collection and retrieve however many ingots were invested in forging said weapons. This does not apply to Unenchanted Staves, Dragonbone or Daedric weapons added by the Expanded Skyrim Weaponry pack.



This mod only adds custom crafting recipies and thus should be compatible with everything, but Expanded Skyrim Weaponry (Version 1.0.1) is required for the mod to function at all.



First, you must download and install Expanded Skyrim Weaponry, without which this mod will not function.

Then, download and activate this mod on NMM/Mod Organizer/Your Mod Manager of Choice as you would most other mods.



If anything doesn't work as advertised and/or you run into any issues, please let me know and I will try to address those issues at my earliest convenience.

Apart from potential bugfixes, I have no planned updates for this mod. I am, however, looking to upload one last Meltdown mod for Lore Weapon Expansion, but am waiting for permission from InsanitySorrow. No ETA on this.



Lrsamways for creating the original Expanded Skyrim Weaponry mod, and for allowing me to upload this mod as an add-on to their mod.

xEdit by ElminsterAU and the SSEEdit Team, used to make this mod.

Arthmoor for creating Ars Metallica, which drove me to make this mod in the first place.




For posterity, I've no intention of porting my mods over to Oldrim since I now play the SE exclusively, but if anyone wishes to do so, you have my permission. This does not apply to my Meltdown mods, as they require Master files that I do not own.
