Thie changes to chests is a part of Harvest Containers, You should check the readme if you are not using Cobl, The OOO 1.32-Cobl plugin adds an option in your Cobl options to disable variuos parts of Harvest Containers, but I do not know how to do it in a non Cobl game.
What do you mean duplicate Mages? If you are using LAME, some characters are cloned and it can confuse a new user, but it is a normal part of LAME.
Wellll.. the thing of it is. Im having this terrible trend going down where, i installed ooo and blood mud to start... clashed mesh errors... think it was the way alternate start came into play. (who really knows)
reinstalled
worked smooooothly all the same mods... (i can never get the UI mods to work)
so i say wtf... give it a shot... after Mages Equipment frooomm... the guy somewhere around the internet... hah..... but there was a corpse in fort cuptor. had single body etc..
i install the map for the what the hell factor...
and meshes etc glitch when i try to use omm with it.
sooo.... next time i load up. double body glitch. no door target names no chest names.... (chests didnt do what they were doing)
only difference i made this time on installation is the fast travel stock.
otherwise full ooo install.
but with it working properly.. the mages equipment mod, has a dead corpse in one tomb. (veyond) and then the live one running around.
restocked the trolls too for my saved game. maybe the ooo update save game?
