VIGILANT is a large quest mod in which you join the Vigil of Stendarr and hunt down the Daedra, witches, and vampires wreaking havoc across Skyrim until a certain Daedric Prince takes a very personal interest in your actions.
It's an excellent mod, however, there is a problem ... it's possible to start it at level 1. While the first few quests may be doable by a low-level character, the enemies will soon start wiping the floor with you if you aren't prepared. Another issue is that the quest giver who starts the questline will interrupt Erandur's scene in the Windpeak Inn if the mod is installed from the beginning.
This patch will delay the questline from starting until certain conditions are met - Altano and Orlando will now not be present in the Dawnstar's inn from the beginning of the game.
This patch requires a new game to work! If you already had VIGILANT installed before adding this patch, it will do exactly nothing for you. No way around this, I'm afraid.
Until I learn how to make an MCM menu, there will be several different plugins to choose from, ranging from the simple level requirements to more complicated requirements like having finished certain quests beforehand (more to come in the future updates).
All plugins are ESL flagged and will not contribute towards your load order!

LEVEL REQUIREMENTS
These patches are the simplest starting requirement for Vigilant - you must only reach the required level.
Level 25:
Altano and Orlando will appear in the Windpeak Inn in Dawnstar once you reach level 25.
Level 30:
Altano and Orlando will appear in the Windpeak Inn in Dawnstar once you reach level 30.
Level 40:
Altano and Orlando will appear in the Windpeak Inn in Dawnstar once you reach level 40.
QUEST REQUIREMENTS
These patches are more complicated than the ones above and will require you to be both at least level 25 (because there needs to be a minimum level - this is not a mod to start unprepared) and finish certain quests before starting Vigilant.
Option 1:
- be level 25+
- finish House of Horrors
Option 2:
- be level 25+
- finish House of Horrors
- finish Kindred Judgement (finale of Dawnguard DLC main questline - side does not matter)
Option 3:
- be level 25+
- finish House of Horrors
- finish Kindred Judgement (finale of Dawnguard DLC main questline - side does not matter)
- finish Unholy Vigil (requires Vigil Enforcer CC)
Option 4:
- be level 25+
- finish House of Horrors
- finish Kindred Judgement (finale of Dawnguard DLC main questline - side does not matter)
- finish The Consequences (requires The Cause CC)
Option 5 (recommended for best story integration):
- be level 25+
- finish House of Horrors
- finish Kindred Judgement (finale of Dawnguard DLC main questline - side does not matter)
- finish Unholy Vigil (requires Vigil Enforcer CC)
- finish The Consequences (requires The Cause CC)

Spoiler:
Show
- Skyrim Special Edition
- SKSE (required for VIGILANT)
- VIGILANT (1.7.1)
- English translation of VIGILANT (soft requirement, not truly needed, but I had to edit one quest - if you have some other translation installed, the initial quest name and objectives will be in English)
- Vigil Enforcer CC (for its associated patch)
- The Cause CC (for its associated patch)
HOW TO INSTALL:
- make sure you meet all the requirements
- download this mod
