Changelogs
Version 1.4.4
Russian Translation - thanks to Curodole
Version 1.4.3
MCM menus not showing up: this issue has been fixed. My deepest apologies to everyone who has had trouble with MCM menus not showing up and thanks to the contributors in the comments who pointed this out. This mod and the Experience Book mod were causing this. This issue has been fixed in both mods, so please make sure to update the two mods to their latest versions.
Updated for Spell Research v2.2.3: The correction in the function "DecomposeItems" "if(RankAux > 5) [...]" has been copied over to the _SR_Quest script. Also, the correction for analyzing spells has been copied over from the UI Extensions Patch in the _SR_Quest script - kudos to ManEatingSalmon
Performance enhancement: big thanks to Nightfallstorm from the Ultimate Add-On Patch: the performance improvement that he suggested has been taken over and adapted slightly so that researching of spells should now work much faster, especially when using multiple spell packs
Paper Rolls consumption: Correction for consumption of paper rolls has been copied over from the Ultimate Add-On Patch - kudos to Nightfallstorm
Additional options for MCM menu:
- Option to enable or disable the consumption of Magicka and to advance time when crafting theses or researching spells
- Option whether a Research Journal is required to display the Spell Composing menu
- Option to configure whether it should be possible to display the Spell Composing menu while sneaking / running / in combat / when other menus are open
- Lock Aspect Ratio: Width and height can now be changed simultaneously
- Option to not override the "Compose Thesis" and "Compose Spell" options in the Research Journal's dialog box. Make sure to use the _SR_Quest script as included in this mod if you want to use these options. They will not work if another mod is overriding the _SR_Quest script.
If you are using Nezerroth's Enhanced Graphics for Spell Research Experience Book mod, make sure to load it after the Spell Composing mod and then the look automatically changes.
Please note that the mod is not packed into a .bsa archive. I did not get the textures to load properly when packing them into the .bsa archive. Therefore the mod contains only loose files.
Please note that the available Patch Collections for Spell Research which cover Spell Composing may break with the new version of this mod until they are updated. The authors have been informed.
Version 1.4.2
_SR_QuestScript fix - thanks to Glanzer
Version 1.4.1
Fixed required paper for crafting theses and researching spells - thanks to mercuryt!
Version 1.4
Nordic UI skin, thanks to Dopesan!
Removed unnecessary script: _SR_EffectComposeSpellScript - thanks to Glanzer!
Fixed a bug, where Magicka Bar would show decimals, e.g. 18.63432453 / 100 when using the Convenience Add-On Patch.
Added white backgrounds to Archetype Images when using the Enhanced Graphics mod together with a black skin
Version 1.3.2
New MCM-Option: Messages in 1st Person (I-Perspective) or in 2nd Person (You-Perspective)
New MCM-Option: Allow crafting of extra theses
Fixed a bug where inkwells were not consumed
Fixed a bug with not being able to craft theses due to wrong magicka requirement
Version 1.3
Support for animated archetype images from the Enhanced Graphics mod:
If you have the Enhanced Graphics for Spell Research Experience Book mod installed, the animated archetype images will now automatically be shown in the Spell Composing UI
Note that the animated archetype images don't look so good when used with the Vanilla skin. It is recommended to use one of the Dear Diary skins
Note that you still need the Patch for Enhanced Graphics for Spell Research Experience Book v1.7.3 if you want the animated archetypes images to be shown in the Experience Book. This v1.3 update only applies to the Spell Composing UI.
Version 1.2.1
Fixed Magicka Bar in Spell Composing UI - now accounts for all buffs/debuffs instead of just exhaustion penalty - thanks to Nightfallstorm for the fix!
Version 1.2
Critical fix for ESP FormIDs and potential save game corruption.
If you have a backup of your saves before you installed Spell Composing, I recommend going back to these.
Version 1.1 Patch
Patch "Spell Composing + Experience Book (optional) + Convenience Add-On Patch" is now available!
Note: You can remove the "Spell Research - Convenience Add-On - Experience Book Patch" from the Convenience Add-On mod page if you're using the above patch. It also covers the Experience Book.
Note: The messages in the Spell Composing UI will still be written in the Vanilla way (You-Perspective). I plan to add an option to choose between the I-Perspective and the You-Perspective in the next version: v1.4 of Spell Composing.
Load Order: Let LOOT sort the load order. For me LOOT sorted the mods like this and it worked fine:
- SpellResearch.esp
- SpellResearchAddOn.esp
- SpellResearch_Book.esp
- SpellResearch_SpellComposing.esp
File Order (e.g. in Mod Organizer 2) should be (lower mods overwrite higher mods):
- Spell Research
- Spell Research - Experience Book (if you have it installed)
- Spell Research - Spell Composing
- Spell Research - Convenience Add-On
- Spell Research - Spell Composing + Convenience Add-On Patch
Version 1.1
Added skins from the Dear Diary and Dear Diary - Wood & Paper mods by uranreactor
Changed option to show either spell school, an unknown spell symbol or no spell symbols when researching spells
