Removing unnecessary SI dependency

Post » Thu Apr 07, 2011 5:27 pm

Turns out the Shining Creatures esp's depend on SI even though it's unnecessary. I wonder how to remove the dependency? In my case I have SI installed myself as well.

Hi Arkngt

Is it just this file you mean "Shining Creatures.esp" http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29735, cause in tes4edit unless im going blind lol there was nothing depending on SI. But i too have always had SI, now is the Flame Atronachs, Frost Atronachs and Will-o-the-wisps derived from SI? Cause if that's a yes, then i'll think some more

Yes, we just updated it, removing the SI dependency from the main Shining Creatures.esp, but I forgot about the modules (i.e. Shining Creatures_AtronachFrost.esp etc). I could rebuild them based on the updated Shining Creatures.esp but I just hoped there was an easier way of doing it, via the CS, TES4Edit or Wrye Bash or something.

EDIT: Nevermind, rebuilding them via TES4Edit is easy/fast so I'll just do that.

The only thing there i could find was under each of those files is the
File Header >> MAST Filename >> DLCShiveringIsles.esp


Now i cant even see where its dependencies(each file) are so might be safe just to delete that record and test i say? 10 secs job then the test

Let me know if it works

Thanks! I've already removed the dependencies via TES4Edit and reuploaded it so it's not necessary. Also in a lousy mood ATM as this microissue just took 2 hours away from my free Saturday, so I just want to forget about it for now. But many thanks anyway!
