Description
  • Fishing Creation Club DLC was given for free to all users by Bethesda, but it was shipped with broken fish plaques:
    • There are 9 fish plaques in each of the 3 Hearthfires homes, and any fish mounted on these plaques are suppose to be stored in 27 ReferenceAliases on the plaque control quest.
    • However, all 3 homes had their fish plaques hooked up to the first 9 ReferenceAliases.
    • This means you can only mount 9 fish on those 27 plaques, with the duplicate plaques non-functional.
    • There are also 3 fish plaques in Proudspire Manor. Bethesda didn't even create ReferenceAliases for these.
  • There were various things that fixed this:
    • I made Fish Plaque Fix.
    • USSEP also added their own fix.
    • Bethesda eventually fixed this in the latest update as well.
  • However, if you updated USSEP and Skyrim, you would have installed and uninstalled various fixes, and this process might have broken things:
    • Fish plaques might now point at non-existent ReferenceAliases.
    • Fish plaques might be stuck in a broken state.
    • Bethesda's fix doesn't detect fish already mounted on plaques fixed by earlier fixes.
  • This mod will fixes these issues by:
    • Retroactively point all fish plaques to the canonical ReferenceAliases from the Bethesda update.
    • Reset any fish plaques stuck in a broken state.
    • Automatically detect previously mounted fish that are broken and remount them.
  • While making these fixes, I also made the following improvements:
    • In vanilla, after you mount a fish, there is a useless dialog box telling you "fish is mounted". This mod removes that dialog box.
    • In vanilla, after you mount a fish, the inventory menu remains, but it is useless, and all you can do is exit. This mod now exits the inventory menu automatically.
    • In vanilla, if you have many fish in your inventory, the game will ask how many fish you would like to mount with a quantity dialog. This is pointless since you can only ever mount 1 fish. This mod now prevents the quantity dialog from popping up.
    • In vanilla, Proudspire Manor's fish plaques break if you mount small fish. After mounting, the fish is stuck in a non-interactive state due to bad collision and cannot be removed. This mod fixes this.
  • ESL
  • No vanilla record edits.

Requirements
  • Updated version of the Fishing Creation Club DLC with Bethesda's fish plaque fix. You can run content from the latest update with the 1.5.97 exe fine. Don't complain while misinformed.
  • You also should not activate any previous fish plaque fixes from Fish Plaque Fix or old versions of USSEP AFTER installing this mod.
  • SKSE - for automatically closing the inventory menu.

Installation/Update/Uninstallation
  • Installation/Update: whenever.
  • Uninstallation: whenever. Most of the fixes are applied the first time the game is loaded with the mod and will remain in your game even with the mod uninstalled. However, the already mounted fish detection logic only runs when you enter the fish plaque locations.
