Unofficial Creator Club Update - Holy Crusaders

Prevents the Creation Club's Holy Crusade quest (Crusader's Relic) from starting automatically on installation, instead triggering it when the player reads the note found on the corpse of the Courier east of Markarth.

Also available on Bethesda.net! [PC] [XB1] [PS4]

I hate it when tasks start automatically. Whether it's a mod, a DLC pack, or what we call a download from the Creation Club, if installing it causes a certain quest to appear only in my diary, I'm not a fan. Immersive destruction is one of them. Downloading some content from CC and suddenly I had to accept that my character heard three rumors and received a message in one go - at the bottom of the dungeon, no less!

Therefore, I am taking it upon myself to rectify the situation and intend to work on all the files on the Creation Club one by one so that the missions can start in a more immersive way and make other improvements as I see fit.

After installing this patch, Relics of the Crusader will no longer launch automatically when loading the game. Instead, the body of the courier, some guards, and some bandits will appear on the road east of Markarth, not far from Blind Cliff Cave. The courier was planning to deliver the relic to a museum in High Rock. However, the bandits had other plans.

Reading the note on the courier's corpse will start the mission. After that, everything should continue as normal.

The patch also resolves some minor USSEP conflicts.

For best results, do not install this patch on a save file that already has Divine Crusader installed. If you do this, it won't break your game, but you won't benefit from some of the fixes and you may experience unusual search behavior.

Disclaimer

I am not the original author of the Creation Club files this patch relies on. This patch is not supported in any way, shape, or form by the original author, and is an independent mod with its own responsibilities and shortcomings.

Install

Make sure you have downloaded and installed Divine Crusader from Creation Club.

Download and install the patch, preferably using NMM or MO. If you want to do it manually, you can simply drag and drop the .esp and script files into the Data folder.

enjoy your meal!

Uninstall

Uninstall the patch using your Mod Manager, or delete the .esp file from your "data" folder. This should safely revert all my changes back to their original state. However, in general, Skyrim does not support uninstalling mods during playback, which is a practice that should be treated with caution.
