stable SE format. You should install on a new save as the globals of the bard skill are changed and won't carry over. This update was done carefully so that the bard books were changed over without changing their positions or ids in the college to keep patches functional so your patches for the college cells should all still be good to go.
Due to feedback, the AIO patch 3.4 now includes all 9 original NPCs at the college. Although AIO does not touch all the NPC directly, this was made so modders can patch with NPC appearance overhauls easier. Galishai is providing a patch for users of high poly heads and Pandorable's appearance overhaul.
Some new patches and options released for version 3.3.
*Updated patches for AIO and USSEP.
*Updated patch for Snazzy SFCO v2.1.2.
*New patch for Keep it Clean to utilize new bathing room.
*Updated Undeath Patch.
*Mrf provides their own texture patch updated to Bards Reborn 3.3.
*Galishai provides their own patch for NPC appearance for Bards Reborn 3.3.
*Tcz provides their own NPC patch for outfit clothing replacer.
*Updated ELFx patch. Remember to pay attention to mod load order.
*Note: ELFx patch continues to be the one patch that is a plugin, not ESL. I was asked before if you can convert to ESL, the answer is yes but the file may be updated again later. It may be too tricky for you to remember to do your conversions with each update.
*Reminder: RLO patch has a fix for RLO caused seams around stairways. I contacted RLO creator and he said he no longer works on the mod. One patch has the fix for RLO caused seams, but might not apply a Solitude retexture of stairway. No one has reported such a case, but if it happens to you, use the earlier RLO patch and live with the small seams.
Compatibility v3.3: View the Article
Load Bards Reborn below texture and lighting mods.
Please check your load order when updating mods.
Load Order Example:
1. USSEP
2. Lighting Mods
3. Texture Mods
4. Clutter and Furniture Overhaul Mods
5. Bards Reborn
*Fixed small bug where follower didn't go into tower room.
*Bonus in update 3.3 is restored cut dialogue between Viarmo, Pantea, and Aia (was supposed to be heard at Winking Skeever, now takes place at the college).
I don't know if this will help others or not, but I had been having issues with the performance never finishing and the dialogue for "I'm done for now" never showing up after to collect coin & room. Furthermore, the entry for 'Bard Skill' in my journal was not increasing, which meant I could never take the Drum test with Malukah.
I got it to all work perfectly by keeping the same load order, but setting any scripts from Become a Bard to not be overwritten. To do this, just hide the script in the mod overwriting this one.
Now... on to see if I have other issues which need the script from the mods with hidden scripts.
Does anyone know of a fix?
Still waiting for someone to make a Bard College Expansion combo patch x(I am having an issue with this mod and maybe someone can help.
When using LOOT it says that Bards Reborn needs a compatibility patch with RLO, & USSEP.
When I downloaded the RLO patch Vortex says im missing masters like Bring out your Dead.esm, Dawnstar.esm, Dragon Bridge.esm, OblivionGates in Cities.esm ...etc
Yet I dont use those mods. Will this cause an issue for not having those other mods?
It does not alter how that quest works if that's what you are asking. What this mod does is alter how the "Become a Bard" mod works, by requiring you to complete the "Tending the Flames" quest before you can actually start performing as a bard.
If you are asking whether my mod touches the quest record for Tending the Flames then the answer is YES, because I changed the language at the conclusion from...
"I have been inducted into the Bard's College in Solitude."
To...
"I have been inducted into the Bard's College in Solitude. I am now able to perform music in Skyrim!"
(I also carried over USSEP fixes on said record)
I hope this helps!

Thanks!
Though I've hit a bit of a conflict between this mod and, assuming as it's the only mod I use that add sewers, Skyrims Sewers 4.
The trapdoor to the vault is located at the same spot as a trapdoor to the sewers are. You can get to the little side room where the trapdoors are, which then has two trapdoors located on top of eachother. But once you get into that side room you can not get out of it without using tcl.
Recorded a video to more easily show the issue. :)
Hasn't actually caused a major issue for me atm, but figured it might be good to mention it anyway.
