I have updated my mod for the 1.5.23 patch (Creation Club update).

I have updated my mod for the 1.5.16 patch (Creation Club update).
28th September 2017 --------------------------
NOTE: New Skyrim SE patch - v1.5.3 (Creation Club):
I have updated my mod for the latest update from Bethesda.
Unfortunately, the Creation Club (CC) as it currently stands places text inside the core game string files that are only related to paid items in the CC. That means that whenever new items are added to the CC this mod may need to be updated as well.
Fingers crossed that Bethesda find a better way for the Creation Club to function so that it doesn't need to patch the core game string files every time it updates the CC.
This mod hasn't been updated in over four years, and the game's version number has changed several times since then.
Can anyone confirm whether or not this works with versions later than v1.5.23, and if there are any problems to watch for? (For myself, I'm interested in 1.5.97 at the moment, and in the future I'll want to use it with the Anniversary edition.)
this mod is never, EVER going to leave my lo. i didn't realise how much the american spellings bugged me until i started using this, i swear. seriously worth the dl. can't believe i'd been using it for so long without endorsing!
EDIT: sadly, i think i'm going to have to revert to the standard american english strings. this mod seems to have messed up several items, such as lockpicks, which no longer appear in game at ALL and are nameless. shame. :(
EDIT #2 (sorry): fixed following the instructions of geraintwd a few posts down!
this is a very good mod, it replaces most of the american words to proper english. but it has a big problem, and that is that it messes with the game files if you download it mid playthrough. if you're planning to use this mod either start a new game or suck it up with the american s#*!, learned this the hard way
What actually happened? I started my game with it but I uninstalled it for the past 50 hours thinking it wasn't working now it's back on again. You have me worried.
EDIT: Nevermind I removed it again as it was causing items to not show up in my inventory, I guess I'll just have to deal with these annoying americanisms like I do with Animal Crossing New Horizons, god I wish that game got a UK tranlsation, the americanisms are too much sometimes in that game.
Then use BSA Extractor to open up Skyrim - Patch.bsa from your Skyrim Special Edition\Data folder and extract the same 3 files mentioned above. Open each one in StrEdit and you can then go through and make your own changes.
Further testing has shown that the instructions above to edit the String files directly might not necessarily work so well for SSE as for Oldrim. For now I would suggest just hiding the Update string files. You will still find some strings in the game with Bethesda's own errors or American spellings, but at least the rest of the mod works fine.
To clarify, this is not a problem with this mod - it's down to Bethesda's updates. It's not really fair or reasonable to expect that the mod author should have to go back and re-do all of the changes he's already made to these files every time Bethesda update something their end.
IMPORTANT WARNING sorry for my bad grammer my main tongue is not english This string removes nightingale armor from both game and console command list. So with those strings u w?ll not able to further quest chains of thieves guild when trinity restored quest starts. U should remove scripts first. I dont know how this things work but this string doesnt have nightingale armor parts so u cant activate armor stone u cant have them with console commands either as long as u have strings installed. I dont know if its dngerous for deleting it during the game for certain quest and install it back after but i need this stting for everybody different redone mod. So i found this solution. it took days to discover it but best mention about it for my fellow modders
The answer is in the sticky, basically this mod would need to be updated for every Creation Club update. Since it hasn't, some things will show up as blank or throw out an error message.
I loved this mod in Oldrim, shame we can't have it in SE. Maybe someone will come along and adopt it. It's fine having American English in Skyrim (it's what I grew up with) but knowing Skyrim (the country) is based on Scandinavian countries, it should be the Queen's English. I would consider this a bug, or an anachronism at best. Bethesda should know better. Just like Fallout would be inappropriate in anything but American English (as Americana is a solid theme in that game).
as soon as i installed this, string folder i couldnt pickup any sort of wine at all, cant interact with it, no text comes up at all when i hover over any sort of bottle or mead, as soon as i deleted the strings folder, i could pick up wine again!!
That's not a problem with this mod; it's probably a problem of conflict between this mod and another one you are using. Find the other one, disable it and I'm sure you'll be able to pick up the wine again!

I tried everything and this solved the missing localization string error somehow.

Strings\Update_English.DLSTRINGS
Strings\Update_English.ILSTRINGS
Strings\Update_English.STRINGS
That will cause the game to revert to the original files and your steel helmets and so on will be visible again.

Hope this helps.

Items either have no name or are called "<missing name>"
Orcish Boots are one such item.
