About this mod
In vanilla only the College mages sell mage hoods. This mod adds hoods to other merchants that sell mage robes + fixes that Madena doesn't sell robes.

- In vanilla mage robes are sold not only by the College mages, but also by other spell vendors (including court wizards), general goods merchants and some others. However, by some reason only the College mages sell mage hoods. This mod fixes this inconsistency, adding mage hoods to all other vanilla merchants that sell mage robes in vanilla.
- This mod also fixes another small inconsistency - in vanilla Madena (the court wizard of Dawnstar) is the only court wizard that doesn't sell any mage robes. This mod adds the missing robes to her, as well as hoods.
- The number of hoods sold is randomized and balanced. Since those merchants sell fewer robes than the College mages, they will sell fewer hoods, some vendors won't sell any hoods at all. It will be easier to find hoods at spell vendors or Radiant Raiments than at general goods merchants.
- Since higher-level mage robes appear at the College merchants at earlier levels than at all others (1, 8, 16, ... at the College vs 1, 10, 20, ... at other merchants), hoods will follow the same logic - the Apprentice and Adept hoods will appear at non-College merchants later than at the College ones (1, 5, 10 at the College and 1, 8, 16 at other merchants).
There are two versions of the mod (you can choose in the installer):
- for Container Distribution Framework (patch for v1.5.97 is here)
- for SkyPatcher (requires iAllowLeveledListsAddedToContainers=1 in SkyPatcher.ini)
- This mod is technically compatible with everything since it uses CDF/SkyPatcher and doesn't edit any vanilla records directly.
- However, there may be inconsistencies if you have mods that change the number of robes sold by the included merchants or the levels at which the robes and hoods appear at merchants.
- Open World Loot raises the levels at which higher-level robes appear at the College merchants to be the same as at non-College ones (1, 10, 20 ...), but doesn't change the levels for hoods (1, 5, 10). The installer includes a version for consistency with OWL that lowers the levels of the added hoods to match the levels of hoods at the College merchants, but if you feel that it's better as is, then you can use the normal version.
