Changelogs
I've included 3 versions in the FOMOD installer, one scales 1 to 1 Smithing to Enchanting (100% scaling), the next scales 1 to 0.5 (50% scaling), and the final scales 1 to 0.25 (25% scaling).

DESCRIPTION

Spoiler:  
Show
Wish there was a fortify enchanting enchantment, but there is none? Playing a NO ALCHEMY playthrough, but want a bit of an enchanting buff? Playing with a mod like Skyrim Alchemy Fixed and wish that SOMETHING buffed enchanting, just a little, that was already in the game?

Then this mod is for you!!!

Changes the base magic effect in the game for Fortify Smithing to Fortify Smithing and Enchanting, so existing vanilla and most added items with a Fortify Smithing enchantment become Fortify Smithing and Enchanting items (like The Forgemaster's Fingers for instance).

If the item is disenchantable and you do so you will learn the enchantment. If you have already learned Fortify Smithing it becomes Fortify Smithing and Enchanting. Items that you already enchanted with Fortify Smithing become Fortify Smithing and Enchanting.

I made the 50% the default in the FOMOD Installer, but the 25% is the most balanced. With 100% things can get out of hand quickly at high levels. TBH I've only played a whole playthrough with the 100% and 50% versions, so I'm not sure how the 25% is in early game. The fact I created a 25% version should say something about how powerful this mod can be.

If someone would like I could post a 10% version too, drop me a note if you need it for your build.


EXAMPLES

Spoiler:  
Show
The Forgemaster's Fingers (see final screenshots, the caption lists the scaling option used) and Hide Bracers. The Hide Bracers I tempered with each version so you can see the differences - I had equipped a Master Smithing Ring I created for testing that, before installing the mod, was Fortify Smithing 100%. As you can see in the screenshots, the armor tempered to the same level with each version, however the enchantment scaled correctly for each version (refer to pictures of Hide Bracers, (Legendary), the scaling is listed for each pic). The Forgemaster's Fingers I did nothing to, they just inherited the changes my mod makes.


WARNING

Spoiler:  
Show
Enchantments stack. Creating a full set of smithing gear will now increase your enchanting quite a bit. It is possible to LOOP (enchant a full set of gear, use it to enchant a whole second set, you get the picture). THIS WILL MAKE YOUR GAME NO FUN, please don't abuse this and come to me about how broken your game is - like a gun, use this responsibly!


WHAT THIS MOD DOES

Spoiler:  
Show
  • Renames the base Fortify Smithing enchantment to Fortify Smithing and Enchanting
  • Depending upon the version installed either changes the base Fortify Smithing magic effect to Fortify Smithing and Enchanting, with enchanting scaled to either 100% of the smithing amount, 50% of the smithing amount or 25% of the smithing amount.
  • Changes description of enchantment depending upon scale selected.
  • FOMOD Installer to choose which Enchanting scale to use.

COMPATABILITY

Spoiler:  
Show
Compatible with anything that doesn't modify the 2 records I do - many enchantment mods do, like Summermyst, load my mod last and it will work with most anything. If you need a version compatible with another mod contact me and I will make a patch or a compatible version. Like my Better Fortify Magic Skill Enchantments mod, most enchantment mods benefit from my mod being loaded after.

BACKGROUND

The latest mod coming from one of my final patches. I don't think it really takes explaining, the description does a good job. Someone else thought it might be of use to them, so I decided to go ahead and post it, I wanted to play with FOMODs, so it was fun. I may go back and build FOMODs for some of my other mods that have multiple options, it makes installing so much easier. Enjoy, and endorse if you like it!
