About this mod Machine translation

Fixed an issue where the aura of the Dawnguard Rune Shield would not activate when changing weapons via Skyui (Dawn Papyrus Summons)

describe:

I noticed that some items used with the script OnEquipped-ObjectReference are not able to have their perks, spells or magic effects applied when you change weapons using skyui's grouping functionality. In this case, the Dawnguard Rune Shield has two scripts: one for the defense/damage bonus against vampires, and another for the solar aura effect. When we use a shield, the event is not fired when equipped via skyui (Papyrus call), this is because of limitations in the way the script works. On the Create Kit Script reference page: "This event will not always fire. If the item is equipped normally via the inventory, it will work as expected. If equipped via the console or Papyrus, the event will not fire."

So I simply removed the script from the project and added it as an enchantment using the creation kit, and the Spellbreaker shield actually works as expected without this issue and with the enchantment, also it does get annoying when you're in combat and you want to use the awesome skyui feature to quickly change your bow into a rune shield for melee combat, but you can't apply the aura effect.

I made six versions of fomod installers with this fix:

The shield is heavy armor and will cost mana instead of stamina which I think is more suitable for a paladin character

The shield is light armor and it will consume magic instead of stamina, I want to keep it like vanilla but you think like me it doesn't make much of a difference with the MAGIC aura draining stamina

Shields are heavy armor and do not consume magic and stamina like the Spellbreaker Ward effect does

Shields are light armor and do not drain mana or stamina

The shield is heavy armor and consumes stamina

The shield is light armor and will consume stamina as usual, no changes

Install:

It comes with fomod installer so just use mm, if you want to install manually just copy one of the esp into the 00 Main folder of your data folder

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
