Duration 60 seconds, Detect Life and Detect Death spells, and two Detect Automaton spells

There is already a mod that changes the vanilla detect health from a spell you have to maintain to a "fire and forget" type that is effective and lasts 60 seconds. This mod also does this, but instead of "Detect Life" it adds the expert level "Detect Life II" which lasts 60 seconds and can be "fire and forget".

Just to make sure Draugr isn't forgotten, I've added a 60 second duration for Expert Level Detect Dead II. Then, let's add the "Detect Automata" and "Detect Automata II" spells to detect Dwemer machines.

Each new spell has a spellbook added and is available wherever expert level spells are sold.

There is already a mod that changes the vanilla Detect Life from a spell that you have to maintain to a "fire and forget" type that is active for 60 seconds. This mod does that as well but, instead of replacing Detect Life, it adds an Expert Level Detect Life II that is "fire and forget" with a 60 second duration.

Just so the Draugr didn't feel left out, I added an Expert Level Detect Dead II with a 60 second duration. And then, what the heck, let's add Detect Automata and Detect Automata II spells as well that detect Dwemer machines.

There are Spell Tomes added for each of the new spells and they should be available where-ever Expert Level magic spells are sold.

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.
