Smart Casting SSE Patch

A new way to gain casting magic with SkyUI. Smart spells are the main feature, allowing you to automatically cast any spell if it meets a customizable set of rules. Spell rings and spell combinations can help you become an efficient spellcaster. If you want to improve your magic casting gaming experience, give it a try.

This mod replaces the .bsa in Smart Cast by placing it in the Cathedral Assets Optimizer. Original mod is required.

Big thanks to Brodual for featuring my mod on my YouTube channel,

He explains every feature of this mod in detail.

Thanks to novajam for making another explanatory video, and to Gruntlock for making a video that goes along with my mod.

During a battle, Skyrim's magic-casting technician puts the spellcaster into a human loop, repeating all the steps over and over again, switching spells back and forth. I feel like some spells should have different mechanics, for example it would be nice to be able to cast a protective spell by selecting it on the menu rather than equip, charge and release.

This mod allows you to improve your magic spellcasting gameplay with three options:

You can assign a set of rules to automatically cast spells

You can customize these special rings to cast spells when worn. You don't have to worry about your gear, there are no biped slots assigned to these rings, meaning nothing will be unequipped from your character.

Cast more spells with just one hand, select up to 3 spells at a time

You don't need to be a magic caster to benefit from this mode, if you are a warrior or thief you can create smart spells or spell circles to cast smaller spells like Oakflish or Quick Heal without having to switch weapons, now you can use your magicka pool often even if it is small.

Before installing this mod, make sure you have SkyUI 4.1 and SKSE 1.6.16 installed, you can try using lower versions, but I programmed the script using these versions.

I recommend using the Mod Manager to install this mod, but if you want to install it manually, you can simply extract it into the skyrim/data folder.

After successful installation, wait about 20 seconds for the initialization message to appear and the MCM to announce the registration of the 2 mod configuration pages, then you are good to go.

The mod revolves around weapon and spell cache menus to help you customize your spell casting options. It's a bit weird to use them, but the limitations of Papyrus leave me with no other options, here's the example:

• To use this mod to activate certain spells or weapons and make them run, you must first equip them to your character, but powers are supported but shouts are not supported.
• Once you enter any Mod configuration page, these weapons or spells will be registered in their corresponding cache menu.
• The first spell or weapon in the cache menu will be the one your character is currently equipped with. Each cache menu is limited to 30 slots.

The main purpose of the cache menu is to minimize all the spells and weapon switching required to configure the mod, but make it as compatible as possible.

You can use any spell as part of the mod, even ones that require a target, but I strongly recommend that you only use spells that you cast yourself and avoid focus spells, for example, use quick recovery instead of recovery. You must remember that some spells have a casting range, if the required range is not reached, the casting will fail and the magic required for the spell will be consumed, "Familiarity" is a spell that has a casting range that will fail if you target the area too far.

Here you can set the rules for the automatic casting system, if all the rules you assign to a spell are met and you have enough magicka, the spell will be cast without user intervention, consuming the magicka required for the spell. The order in whic …
