Hi there,

maybe the topic has been ridden to death, but could someone make a definite statement whether adding too many books and/or bookshelf containers results in some not working anymore?

I have successfully added 16 containers of 10 books each but another 8 containers give the in-game message 'you can add 0 more books'.

I've triple-checked the non-functional ones, even re-done some of them, to no avail.

Looking at the FormIDs suggests that the PlayerBookShelfContainers added last are broken, not (Click)Triggers or BookMarkers.

However, deleting functional containers does not enable the non-functional.

So, any idea why this happens and how to circumvent it?

Thanks in advance

The Bethesda bookshelf code is a litle flaky at times...
I have found this mod to be more stable, easier to place in the world and has more features:

This was very good advice!

Using da5id2701's replacement for PlayerBookShelfContainerScript all of my bookshelves now work, even those who had been non-funcional using vanilla - without me doing more than installing his pex!
Book-Placement (variable width) is nicer, too.

Edit: looking at the original PlayerBookShelfContainerScript, I wonder where CurrentBookAmount is initialized...?

I too love the Unlimited Bookshelves mod.... but what I REALLY need is a very simple way to place a completely set-up bookshelf against a wall in a house. Why this particular thing is so frustratingly difficult I just don't get....

Someone needs to make a resource for a set-up bookshelf where all you need to do is grab it from a mod or whatever, and slap them against walls. *sigh*
