Description

Adds 160+ new loading screens steeped in Tamrielic lore. Become deeper immersed in the Elder Scrolls mythos with tons of quotes from in-game books (from Skyrim and past Elder Scrolls titles), history, mythology, and little-known facts about the world of Tamriel.

These loading screen texts were carefully selected from the brightest minds in the Elder Scrolls lore community. They have been cautiously edited and verified to ensure the highest quality possible. These loading screens were all submitted by members of the http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1383474-wip-lore-based-loading-screens-help-me-create-a-new-skyrim-mod-submit-your-favorite-lore/page__st__90, and http://www.reddit.com/r/teslore/comments/v1z96/lorebased_loading_screens_help_me_build_a_skyrim community members. Without you, this mod would not be possible. You have my gratitude.

Installation


Just enable Chesko_LoreBasedLoadingScreens.esp, or activate within your respective mod manager.

Known Issues


None.

Troubleshooting


If you don't immediately see the new loading screens when entering and exiting areas, be patient; there are a lot of default loading screens in Skyrim, some of which are biased to occur depending on where you are. Almost all of the new loading screens are conditionless, meaning they should have a chance of occurring anywhere.

Compatibility


No compatibility issues. No existing loading screens were edited or altered in any way.

Did you add mine? I notice I'm not in the credits.

SUB: While Saarthal was the first and oldest Nordic city in Skyrim, Bromjunaar, now known as Labyrinthian, is the largest and most well preserved.

No, and for no good reason. I think I got distracted at that point in the thread because some of the discussion surrounding it was off-topic. My apologies.

I've added both of these to my working copy. When I push an update your submissions will be in. I want to give some folks a chance to catch any nagging errors such as typos. I'll probably push the update tonight. thanks!

Awesome man! I need this to spice up loading screens and the fact that my knowledge of lore is merely average at best.
