Cool thanks! now if i only had a gaming pc to use it

Brilliant! Works exactly as described, well done. Thanks for sharing

Holy crap, this is exactly what I wanted. I have all these spare dragon souls lying around with nothing to do with them. And a heap of perks I want. Yay!

Nice, gonna check this out for sure.

Words do not properly express my gratitude for this mod.
So many dead dragons, so few Words to spend them on... this is perfect.

Great stuff, though 10 souls is a little steep don't you think? I changed it to 2, but maybe I'm being too generous.

Well damnit. There's this and the Horse Whisperer mod (no, it's actually a whistle, but damnit, I had to say whisperer!) that run ScriptDragon.

Probably going to get in on this, although I'm leary since SKSE, SK4GB, etc are already out.

I don't like having to chain exes to run my things...

Thanks for the positive feedback, everyone. As always, let me know if you have any requests or find any bugs.

I saw a wide range in the request topic, but 10 seemed to be a semi-happy medium. Either way, I made sure it was entirely configurable so people can have the experience they want.


I don't personally use the SK4GB thing, but when debugging this mod the handful of testers were using it. Everything seemed to play nice. Script Dragon, for its part, is not daisychaining any .exe files. It uses a DLL injection and plays nice without any exe file. You can read more about their technical details at their topic (linked in the first post), and browse//compile the source for yourself if you're suspicious of anything.

Any chance you could put up a mirror? Skyrim Nexus doesn't work for me
It pops up with the server window which then goes white before I can even do anything and goes to the "connection was reset" error page. I would really like to use this mod.

Awesome. Any chance of seeing a version that doesn't require a script extender once the CK comes out? I just... don't trust them. Not the developers of it, but the program itself. It weird me out. Plus, I'm already encountering lag problems as is, I don't want they being any worse.

This mod works great. Any chance you can write a mod that uncaps the skill limit of 100 like Elys did with SKSE?

+10 Internets for making the number of Souls configurable!

Thanks!

Ah, well I finally managed to get it to download by clicking the file then clicking where the server link would be just as it popped up, took like 7 tries, haha. I wish Skyrim Nexus would just work right for me. >.>

Something I'll definitely use after I'm finished with my assassin, nice work.

Will the perk points remain if unused and the mod is uninstalled?

Script Dragon isn't working with the new patch. I'll update the mod (if needed) to the latest version when it is.

Either way, I have an update soon that puts a 1 second delay between checks, for people with more than 10 souls that don't want to have them all consumed at once.

Well, I do have http://nullcascade.com/dl/mods/skyrim/soulstoperks, but I can't promise I'll keep it as updated as the Nexus. If it turns out a lot of people have Nexus issues, I'll try to make it more accessible.


If it's possible to redo a mod with fewer dependencies I'll certainly attempt to do so.


Nope.

She did amazing work, and there's no reason for me to have to redo it (if I even can) in SD. SKSE and SD play very nicely together. Instead I'm working on a Quick-Toggle UI (done, lets you toggle the UI with a single button press), Immersive Timescale (sets the timescale based on different conditions), and Frequent Saves (forces auto/quick saves at certain intervals/conditions). I'm also looking into code for The Divorce Mod (lets you divorce your partner, or detects if she is dead and auto-divorces you if she is), Stolen for Good (lets you claim a stolen item as your own), and Scale My Quest Items (hit a key, and it scans your inventory for lower-level quest items and gives you the version scaled to your level).


Unused perk points will never go away. But, once you get 200 unused perk points the mod will tell you to spend some before converting. Uninstalling the mod will not remove any souls or perks.

So i install this mod, go to start up skyrim through the launcher, and this error message pops up and tells me that "Your game version is NOT supported, supported versions: 1.1.21.0(31oct11), 1.1.21.0(18nov11)." I assume this has something to do with the game version. how do I fix that?

Unfortunately we need to wait for Script Dragon to be updated to 1.2, the new patch that came out 5 or so hours ago.

ohh makes sense. dang. ah well, good things come to those who wait, right?

if only this could have been accomplished without some third party script extender.

I was waiting for this. Thanks so much for such a thing.

Extremely unlikely. We can't be absolutely, 100% certain until the CS is out, but the current consensus is that there do not appear to be any built-in script commands which will modify the player's available perk points. If that's correct, then the only way to get this functionality is to either run an extender which adds a perk point management command (as SKSE almost certainly will if there isn't one already) or to directly manipulate the "number of perk points" counter in memory (as done by the "F1 adds perk point" trainer and, I presume, this ScriptDragon plugin).


There were a few very good lag-reducing mods for Oblivion which relied on OBSE to give them the ability to improve performance. I expect that similar mods will appear for Skyrim which use SKSE and/or ScriptDragon to allow them to improve performance.

More generally, my experience has been that OBSE/FOSE mods are no more likely to reduce performance than any other (non-extender) mod. There may be good reasons for avoiding extenders (I avoided them myself for quite some time; I honestly don't remember why, aside from a vague feeling of distrust), but this is not one of them.

Excellent.

Great idea. Grabbing now.
