1. Description

*****************************************************************

The East Empire Company commissions the Dragonborn to slay a dragon that is interrupting trade
routes throughout Skyrim. But is the dragon stirring up trouble with a particular reason and
what sinister motive does it have for its actions?

Wyrmstooth adds a new quest that takes the Dragonborn to the island of Wyrmstooth situated north
of Solitude across the Sea of Ghosts. Battle across new landscapes and through new dungeons in
this expansion-sized mod. The task may seem simple enough: slay a dragon that's stirring up trouble.
But things never quite go that easily...

Key Features:

* A New Land to Explore: Travel north across the Sea of Ghosts to the island of Wyrmstooth in
pursuit of a dragon. Delve into one of the largest dungeons in Tamriel with a cadre of mercenaries
at your disposal.

* Your Home is Your Castle: Purchase an abandoned imperial fort from Lurius Liore, make it your own,
hire new staff, and defend it from unwanted visitors.

* New Weapons, Shields, Spells, and a new Shout: Treasures sequestered across the island reward those
with a keen sense of exploration...and a keener ability to fend off danger lurking in the depths of
the many dungeons found across the island.

3. NX Installation

*****************************************************************

Many thanks to folz42 for the following instructions:

1. Unzip the contents of wyrmstooth.zip to your Skyrim data folder. Below is a list
of the default Skyrim mod installation locations:

Unpatched Unit
SDMC:/atmosphere/contents/01000A10041EA000/romfs/Data

SXOS Unit
SDMC:/atmosphere/titles/01000A10041EA000/romfs/Data

2. Confirm you have the following files in your Skyrim data folder:

Wyrmstooth.esp
Wyrmstooth.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Animations.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Meshes.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Voices.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Textures.bsa

If you are not using SkyrimPluginsPatch get it here:
https://github.com/Lord-Akkrand/Skyrim-NX-Toolkit/wiki/5:-Bypassing-Plugin-Limit-and-Installing-Mods

3. Open your Plugins file located in SDMC:/atmosphere/contents/01000A10041EA000/romfs/ with
Notepad++ and add Wyrmstooth.esp and make sure it is listed '*' after unofficial patches(USSEP).

At this point I recommend renaming the .bsa's located in the Data folder.

Wyrmstooth.bsa into WT.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Animations.bsa into WT - A.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Meshes.bsa into WT - M.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Voices.bsa into WT - V.bsa
Wyrmstooth - Textures.bsa into WT - T.bsa

Note: Each line in both Skyrim.ini files cannot exceed 1024 characters in length or the game won't
launch.

For each .bsa listed you add a comma and space to list another. Do not add a comma when youve listed
your last .bsa. Keep a text or note of what you rename or risk becoming trapped in acronym purgatory.

4. Open your Skyrim.ini file located in
SDMC:/atmosphere/contents/01000A10041EA000/romfs/
and edit the following lines to list your corresponding .bsa's:

sArchiveToLoadInMemoryList:(Animations.bsa's are listed here.)
sResourceArchiveList:(base.bsa's, Animations.bsa's(again), Meshes.bsa's are listed here.)
sResouceArchiveList2:(Voices.bsa's, Textures.bsa's are listed here.)

Example:
sArchiveToLoadInMemoryList=Skyrim - Animations.bsa, WT - A.bsa
sResourceArchiveList=Skyrim - Misc.bsa, Skyrim - Shaders.bsa, Skyrim - Interface.bsa, Skyrim - Animations.bsa, Skyrim - Meshes0.bsa, Skyrim - Meshes1.bsa, Skyrim - Sounds.bsa, Skyrim - Hyrule.bsa, Skyrim - Patch.bsa, WT.bsa, WT - A.bsa, WT - M.bsa
sResourceArchiveList2=Skyrim - Voices_en0.bsa, Skyrim - Voices_en1.bsa, Skyrim - Textures0.bsa, Skyrim - Textures1.bsa, Skyrim - Textures2.bsa, Skyrim - Textures3.bsa, Skyrim - Textures4.bsa, Skyrim - Textures5.bsa, Skyrim - Textures6.bsa, Skyrim - Textures7.bsa, Skyrim - Textures8.bsa, WT - V.bsa, WT - T.bsa

5. Open your Skyrim_en.ini (or you games assigned default language) file located in
SDMC:/atmosphere/contents/01000A10041EA000/romfs/
and edit the following line:

sResourceArchiveList2=Skyrim - Voices_en0.bsa, Skyrim - Voices_en1.bsa, Skyrim - Textures0.bsa, Skyrim - Textures1.bsa, Skyrim - Textures2.bsa, Skyrim - Textures3.bsa, Skyrim - Textures4.bsa, Skyrim - Textures5.bsa, Skyrim - Textures6.bsa, Skyrim - Textures7.bsa, Skyrim - Textures8.bsa, WT - V.bsa, WT - T.bsa

6. Start the game.

7. To begin the quest, wait for Theodyn Bienne to find you or speak to Lurius Liore at the
Bannered Mare in Whiterun once you meet quest starting requirements.

4. Manual Upgrade

*****************************************************************

* * * IMPORTANT! * * *
If you currently have an older version of Wyrmstooth installed, it's recommended you either
finish the quest 'Barrow of the Wyrm' first before upgrading or start a new game due to the
numerous quest changes included in this update.
* * * IMPORTANT! * * *

1. Backup the existing Wyrmstooth.esp and Wyrmstooth.bsa files in your Skyrim data folder.

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\data

or for 64-bit Windows:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\data

2. Extract the new Wyrmstooth.esp and Wyrmstooth.bsa file to your Skyrim data folder and
replace the existing files.

*****************************************************************

6. F.A.Q.

*****************************************************************

Q. What patch level is required?
A. You should be running Skyrm patch 1.8 or higher. No patch requirement for Special Edition.

Q. Do I need Dawnguard, Hearthfire or Dragonborn to play Wyrmstooth?
A. No DLC is required to play Wyrmstooth.

Q. Do I need any other additional mods or plugins like SKSE?
A. Wyrmstooth includes an MCM which requires SKSE and SkyUI, but it's not mandatory and
Wyrmstooth will function fine without it.

Q. Do I need to start a new game or can I install this mid-way through my playthrough?
A. You don't need to start a new game to play Wyrmstooth.

Q. Is the mod stable?
A. As stable as it can be. It has been tested extensively and, as of 1.19, as far as we're
aware it is not responsible for any CTDs. If you are experiencing instability please sort
your load order with a program like LOOT and ensure you aren't maxing out your VRAM with
retextures.

Q. How do I start the questline?
A. By default Wyrmstooth starts when you reach level 10 and have finished the main quest
'Way of the Voice'. An imperial courier named Theodyn Bienne will track you down starting
from the Bannered Mare in Whiterun. You can change these conditions in the MCM to suit your
playthrough.

Q. What kind of performance impact does Wyrmstooth have on Skyrim?
A. The overall impact on performance should be negligible. Most of the adventure takes place
in a separate worldspace and the only cell from the base game that Wyrmstooth modifies is
the interior of the Red Wave.

7. Troubleshooting

*****************************************************************

Q. I can't find Lurius Liore at the Bannered Mare in Whiterun nor can I find Theodyn Bienne.
A. Firstly make sure you meet quest starting requirements. You can configure these conditions
in the MCM.

Mods that change the Bannered Mare interior may prevent Lurius and Theodyn from appearing
where they should be. If you have a mod like that installed, try unloading it.

Q. I can't speak to Theodyn; he doesn't say anything at all. Nor does Lurius Liore.
A. A few things can cause this:

1. If you have Requiem installed, make sure you've installed the latest patch.

2. If you have the mod 'Sneak Tools' installed, remove your hood.

3. Confirm that you only have ONE Wyrmstooth.esp and ONE Wyrmstooth.bsa file in your Data
folder.

4. If you have a loose Wyrmstooth.SEQ file in your Data or Data\SEQ folders, remove it.

5. Try sorting your load order with a program like LOOT.

Q. I can't find the mercenaries on the road to Falkreath.
A. If the mercenaries can't be placed where they need to be you should be able to find them in
the Deadman's Drink in Falkreath.

You may have a mod installed that deletes XMarker 0008F648. This XMarker is part of the base
game and is used by the random encounter system.

Q. The game crashed after I arrived on Wyrmstooth!
A. Random crashes on Wyrmstooth can be caused by the following:

1. If you repacked the Wyrmstooth.bsa archive or merged it with another archive, do not
compress it.

There is a bug in the game engine that causes a crash if the game cannot read an XWM
music file from a BSA archive compressed with Bethesda's archive tool.

2. Make sure you aren't maxing out your VRAM with retextures or higher poly assets.

5. Try sorting your load order with a program like LOOT.

Q. I can't seem to talk to the wolf Faelor.
A. Try fast traveling to a nearby location and return or use 'enable' and 'disable' console
commands on Faelor to reset actor state. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch also seems to solve
this problem.

Q. LOD mesh (super low-res objects/textures) aren't disappearing when I get close.
A. Install the compatibility patch for Warburg's Paper Map.

Q. I don't see any map markers for Wyrmstooth-specific quests.
A. This is a problem with the vanilla game if you have too many quests active at one time.
Try turning a few quests off in your journal that you aren't currently working on.

Q. I'm getting an infinite load screen!
A. Install Safety Load or SKSE.

If you've made any LOD z-fighting ini tweaks, reverse them.

If the ILS is occuring when traveling back to Skyrim, make sure another mod isn't
deleting XMarker 0004C488. Try unloading any mods that modify the Solitude docks then
check to see if that makes a difference.

If the ILS is occuring when starting the game (i.e.: main menu won't load) and you're
using Requiem, make sure you're using the latest compatibility patch.

Q. Lurius and the mercenaries are stuck at the mining settlement and won't move...
Alberthor isn't saying anything outside the closed gate...
The dragon isn't flying away after encountering him in his lair...
Things that should be happening aren't or there's a huge delay...
A. You're most likely experiencing script lag. NPCs will trigger certain scenes only at
specific stages of the quest, but if papyrus is lagging these scenes may be delayed or
may not occur at all. One solution is to tweak the priority given to papyrus using the
following Skyrim.ini entries:

[Papyrus]
fUpdateBudgetMS=800.0
fExtraTaskletBudgetMS=800.0
fPostLoadUpdateTimeMS=2000.0
iMinMemoryPageSize=256
iMaxMemoryPageSize=512
iMaxAllocatedMemoryBytes=153600

Q. I see floating rocks/grass in interiors or grass isn't showing up on Wyrmstooth.
A. This is an issue with the base game. The Unofficial Skyrim Patch appears to fix this issue
for the most part.

Q. I can't pick up a new word at a word wall.
A. Make sure you're not currently in combat.

10. Uninstallation

*****************************************************************

Treat uninstalling Wyrmstooth the same as uninstalling an official DLC.

1. Close the game.

2. Remove the Wyrmstooth.esp and Wyrmstooth.bsa files from your Skyrim data folder. By
default this should be either of the following locations:

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\data

or for 64-bit Windows:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\data

3. Load or restore from backup a save taken prior to installing Wyrmstooth.

*OR*

Refer to SuperSajuuk's document on manually removing Wyrmstooth script files from your
save file:
