This is an ALPHA RELEASE. Do not install on any saves you intend on keeping as there are still elements that have not been fully implemented: You need to activate a shrine twice in order for the dialogue to show up. You are not charged on the second activation. The shrine is still active from the first activation and will remain that way until you choose a location / travel. If you switch over to a different cost when a shrine is already active, you will not see it take any affect until you choose a location / travel. Shrines are currently using placeholder statics / custom assets for the moment until I complete the assets. Random Encounters have not been fully implemented. Wayshrines – Remnants of a Forgotten Era is a simple plugin that adds remnants from the second era, wayshrines, as an alternate means of traversing Tamriel. Unlike the shrines left behind the Snow Elves, these shrines can be used by regular mortals at the right cost. This project is a reboot of “Wayshrines of Old”. Requirements: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim + Dawnguard + Dragonborn Optional: SKSE Optional: SkyUI Files have been checked and cleaned with TES5Edit! Multiple Activation Costs and Consequences Select one of the multiple activation costs: Magicka, Dragon Souls, Soul Gems, Gold or completely free. Magicka You will be charged 30% of your Magicka to activate a shrine however if you have exhausted all of your Magicka it will eat into your Stamina and then eventually your Health. Chances of arriving at your chosen destination will decrease when you reach below 50% of your Stamina. Dragon Souls You will be charged 1 Dragon Soul to activate a shrine. Soul Gems You will be charged one full lesser soul gem to activate a shrine. Gold You will be charged 50 Gold to activate and travel with a shrine. Free You are able to travel between shrines without any sort of cost. Discovery Before you can go on any adventures you first need to discover some shrines. Every location can be found inside of the following categories: Hold Capitals and Cities, Towns and Settlements, Orc Strongholds, and Unique Locations. In order for any locations to show up, you will need to discover the shrines in those locations. Alternatively, you can unlock almost all locations through an optional cheat which can found in the book “Configure Wayshrines” or the Mod Configuration Menu. With the exception of a few shrines, which were intentionally left out to not break the quests that unlock those locations. If you want to reach them, you are going to have to discover them on foot. Configuration Take charge of how the shrines operate in your game by configuring options through the book “Configure Wayshrines” or the Mod Configuration Menu.The book will be added to your inventory whenever you load a save for the first time. Make sure you do not lose your copy of the book as you will not be given another one the next time you load the save. In case you ever lose your copy of the book, open the console, type help JC_ShrineConfigBook, add the book to your inventory with the following code player.additem xxxIDofBook. Alternatively, you can use AddItemMenu – Ultimate Mod Explorer by Towawot to add it to your inventory.Both more or less offer the same options so it doesn’t really matter which one you use. However, do not use both simultaneously as it will only create problems. Simply use one or the other. If you are going to switch from one to the other MAKE SURE that you reset all options to their DEFAULT options. Civil War Limitations You will not be able to use the following shrines during any of the sieges: Whiterun, Solitude, Windhelm. The shrines are being maintained by the people and they would not leave a backdoor open for enemies to come in through. They will blocked off during the sieges. This has not been fully tested. Frequently Asked Questions What makes this different to Skyrim Wayshrines – Immersive Fast Travel – SWIFT? It’s basically the same concept but implemented differently. How is this even lore-friendly? Not keen on my take of Wayshrines? Not a problem! Check out the following alternatives: Skyrim Wayshrines – Immersive Fast Travel – SWIFT by Pharros Wayshrines of Tamriel by Arizona_Steve Why would I use these when I can just use the carriages for a cheaper price? This is only offers an alternate method of travel, no different to the other alternatives that already exist i.e riding a mount, hiring a boat or even using the map. Whatever you use is up you.
