Notes

• All locks will damage the lockpicks equally, meaning master locks won't break your lockpick like if it was made of glass
• Wearing gauntlets will affect your lockpicking effectiveness by 50%. This can be corrected with the Nimble Fingers perk, wearing gloves (clothing) or being bare hands
• Reduced the partial areas and sweet spots on locks, meaning lockpicking will be pretty difficult without the perks
• Your chance of finding special treasure without the Treasure Hunter perks is half as much as vanilla Skyrim

Notes

• Detection view cone for NPCs has been narrowed to 165 degrees

Notes

• Bartering is now more dependent on speech skills
• Cooldowns on shouts have been reworked entirely so you can actually use them and be efficient
• Duration and magnitude of shouts have been reworked entirely so having shout perks will yield more benefits than vanilla Skyrim while being weaker if you don't invest at all in those perks
• Shouts aren't affected by any Magic perk anymore
• Shouts give experience proportional to their cooldown, meaning a small cooldown gives less experience and a big cooldown gives more

If you don't have any DLC, simply remove all files with suffixes:

• _DB
• _DBDG
• _DBDGHF
• _DBHF
• _DG
• _DGHF
• _HF

If you use one or more DLCs, keep the ones that applies to your situation.

Each DLC has a suffix associated with it:

• DG: Dawnguard
• DB: Dragonborn
• HF: Heartfires

Keep only the ESP files that match the right suffixes. For any combination of DLCs, there is only 1 ESP possible.

If a skill doesn't have any ESP with the suffix for your DLC, that means the DLC has no impact on it and thus don't need to be part of the suffix for that skill.

To ensure a smoother upgrade to newer versions, it's highly suggested to remove the suffixes from the ESP files you install.

For example, TTR_Skill_Overhaul_Sneak_DB.esp would become TTR_Skill_Overhaul_Sneak.esp.

You won't need to run the Install quest manually unless you previously uninstalled this mod and want to reinstall it.

Open the console and type:

SetStage TTR_Reset_{Module} 0

Where {Module} is the skill tree you want to reinstall, ex: Alteration, Archery, etc.

You can reset a skill tree and get back your perk points at any time and at no cost.

Open the console and type:

SetStage TTR_Reset_{Module} 50

Where {Module} is the skill tree you want to reset, ex: Alteration, Archery, etc.

You can remove all traces of this mod from your save game, including the scripts.

Open the console and type:

SetStage TTR_Reset_{Module} 100

Where {Module} is the skill tree you want to uninstall, ex: Alteration, Archery, etc.

Do not forget to uninstall the ESM module, it's very important.

When you're done, save your game in a new slot, quick saves won't work.

Finally, close your game and use the uninstall function of the NexusModManager or manually delete all the files of this mod.

Be sure you're not in The Frozen Heart inn (Winterhold) when doing this. Otherwise the game will crash on load because of an unknown reference.

If for any reason you have a problem after uninstalling this mod, try to install the ESM module again and this should solve the problem. I'm pretty confident this won't be necessary though...

Obviously, this mod will conflict with other perk mods. Fortunately, this mod is modular so you can decide which modules you want.

Ace - Combat Skills includes a Weapon Speed fix in it's Melee module that will conflict with my mod. To disable it, open the console and type:

set WeaponSpeedBaseFix to 0

Unfortunately, Legendary skills and Dragonborn's Reset Perks options don't reset everything correctly, even for the vanilla perks.

You get back all your perk points, but some things aren't reset like your higher chance to find special treasure with Treasure Hunter.

This means that after picking Tresure Hunter and use any of those 2 options to get back your perk points, you don't have to invest in this perk again to benefit from it. And there are all kind of other kinks like this...

This is where the built-in Reset quest enters the picture. While it can't reset everything either, this is a game limitation, it takes care of a lot more stuff correctly.

To force a clean reset after using Legendary skills or Dragonborn's Reset Perks, simply save and reload your game. The built-in Reset quest will automatically start after 5 seconds, even if you used quick save and quick load functionality.

You can also manually run the built-in Reset quest with the console, see the related information in Installation.

There seems to be a lot of FUD about scripts so let me explain a couple things:

• Scripts are part of the game, without them vanilla Skyrim wouldn't work at all
• All vendors and trainers are purely scripted
• Most quests wouldn't work without scripts
• There's countless other scripted things in that game that you would never think about

Scripts aren't inherently bad, inexperienced mod authors are.

Because mod authors used badly explained functions in the past, which is the Creation Kit wiki's fault, scripts have been pointed as the cause for all the problems in the world...

Like most things in life, clueless people will mess things up, but those that do know how to work with them can do wonders.

As a professional developer myself, I make sure to the best of my knowledge that all my scripts:

• won't corrupt your savegame
• can be stopped at anytime
• are upgradable
• are extremely fast to execute
• are packaged with their source so you can check for yourself

With that said, yes there are scripts in this mod.

Most of them are to manage the Install, Reset and Uninstall cycle.

The remaining script are mostly minor adjustments to the original scripts from the game.
