DESCRIPTION / INTRO
Welcome to the Bad Ass Gold to Septims Dialog mod!!!WHOOOOOOOOO!!!
This mod extends upon the simple replacement of words associations for items, to actually editing the game dialog files where the player will reference “gold” in chat options. Where ever appropriate, the term "gold" is replaced with "septim" or (more commonly) "septims".
This is done for the base Skyrim SE game, all DLC’s, and several other mods that I play with in my personal playthrough.
5/18/21: I HAVE RETURNED THIS MOD TO VISIBLE STATUS.
PLEASE CONSIDER THIS MOD IN 'BACKBURNER SUPPORT" STATUS FOR THE TIME BEING.
I DO PLAN TO RETURN AND UPDATE THE SUPPORTED MODS BELOW WITH NEWER VERSIONS, BUT RIGHT NOW I CANNOT KEEP ON TOP OF THEM. HOPEFULLY SOON!
Here is a list of mods that I've already converted (see the TO DO list for any mods yet to be completed):
Spoiler:
Show
Alternate Start - Live Another Life
Cutting Room Floor - SSE
Falskaar
Helgen Reborn
Immersive World Encounters SE
iNeed - Food, Water and Sleep
INIGO
Interesting NPCs SE (3DNPC)
Keep It Clean - A Bathing mod
Khajiit Will Follow
Legacy of the Dragonborn SSE
M'rissi's Tails of Troubles SE
Relationship Dialogue Overhaul - RDO SE
Shadows of the Past SSE
Simply Knock SE
The Brotherhood of Old - SSE
The Forgotten Island
Thieves Guild Requirements SE
Trade and Barter
Wyrmstooth
There is also an instructional file on how you can search for and find these terms in other mods for your continued pursuit of purging the world of Tamriel of the misused term! (COMING SOON)
That said, please note that no NPC dialog was changed, as that is mostly voice-acted, and having the word “septims” in place of gold would look odd and break immersion.
Please also note that the word “septim” or “septims” will always be lower case, like “gold” should be. The word “gold’ is typically lower case in all the Bethesda game files, but other authors tend to use lower, or upper, or BOTH (Mara help me!) in their works. The only time that “septims” should be upper case is when referring to a formal title or name, like Tiber Septim, for instance.
LATEST CHANGES
October 31, 2020: Main File
- Initial release!
FILE INFORMATION
Using the term of “gold” as a synonym to “septim” is understandable, sure. The terms “coin” and “money” are also interchangeable in this sense. But the word “gold” itself tends to conjure the image of golden nuggets to me, not a stamped coin with the face of Tiber Septim on it.
There are already a handful of mods that address the term of “gold” when it is used on items or in the inventory:
Gold is Now Septims SE
Gold To Septims
Gold to Septim interface fix
Super Simple Gold to Septims (with Optional Septim Weight Choices)
...but these mods are a bit limited and still allow this term to be used in dialog. Enter this mod.
Now, there are occasions where the word “gold” is applicable and acceptable and alphabetical and anecdotical (HA!). This is when referring to the ore itself, or a “golden” crown / claw / pendant, or Goldenglow Estate, or White-Gold Concordat, etc... These instances are preserved as best as possible.
There are two MAIN files to choose from:
BA_GoldToSeptimsDialog_BASE_FOMOD = This is the main file for the vanilla game (Skyrim, Dawnguard, Hearthfire, Dragonborn, and USSEP). This replaces all instances of "gold" with "septims" (or "septim" where appropriate) in the standard dialog. It changes nothing else.
-OR-
BA_GoldToSeptimsDialog_KSR_FOMOD (ARCHIVED) = This is ALSO a main file, but designed in the verbiage used in my Khajiit Speak Redux mod. If you are using that mod for your Khajiit character, download this one to match the styling of speech for the PC in their interactions. IF YOU DOWNLOAD THIS VERSION, YOU DO NOT NEED THE BASE VERSION! This file has now been archived, as it is only partially compatible with my KSR mod, and I have built this feature into KSR already. It is kept for prosperity only.
CONCLUSION
So, umm... yeah. That is all there is for this mod! Not a whole lot of frills and thrills here... just some dialog fixes.
REQUIREMENTS
Skyrim SE
Dawnguard
Hearthfire
Dragonborn
Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch (USSEP)
INSTALLATION
1. Download and install via your favorite mod manager.
2. Read the included ReadMe file for installation instructions or additional information. I understand the irony of including this install step in a ReadMe file for installation that would only be read if someone opened the ReadMe file in the first place. JUST SHADDUP AND DO AS I COMMAND!! :)
3. If unsure of the contents, or to learn more about the mod, use SSEEdit to inspect the contents.
4. If there are any conflicts to resolve, you might benefit from running a Master Update via SSEEdit or other merging program (WyreBash, zEdit, MatorSmash, etc).
5. When ready to play with the mod, open your mod manager, place a checkmark beside the .esp file, and run the game.
6. Enjoy this fine product from Shiholude!
UNINSTALLATION
1. Open your mod manager, and uncheck the .esp file.
2. Select the file from the mod directory and uninstall it.
3. Run your “Master Update” again (if you’re using such a file).
COMPATIBILITY
This should be compatible with most things, as only the dialog was changed for PC topics and prompts. Again, no NPC responses were altered as to preserve the spoken dialog.
KHAJIIT SPEAK REDUX:
If you are a one my furry little friends and use my Khajiit Speak Redux mod for dialog corrections, I have a full set of patches for those mods as well in the optional downloads... all in ESL format (so they will be no impact to your load order), and all in a FOMOD installer (so they are simple to install).
Also note that the “BA_GoldToSeptimsDialog_KSR_FOMOD” file is a complete replacement, meaning that you do NOT need the “BA_GoldToSeptimsDialog_BASE_FOMOD” file, or any other supporting mods files. Simply load the G2SD_KSR files after your other KSR files, and presto-magicko, you have this fixed in your world as well!
