About Cao's Gem Crafting v1

Gems have more value, Crafting with Gems v1

I love to find gems, they feel like a treasure item, but they dont have much use.... so i decided to make them have some magical property. ... with this mod you can cook a gem with a bottle of ale, and it becomes a potion. or you can tan a wolf hide with a gem and it becomes a scroll. you can also smelt 3 normal gems into 1 flawless gem of the same type.

i figured ale is so common, alcohol brings out the potency. and i couldve done paper, but i figured wolves have some spiritual-magical potential so it makes sense to make scrolls from their hide.

i plan to add ALOT MORE recipes when the modtools come out... for now iam limited what i can do. ( i wouldve loved to make a new unique potion and scroll effects for each gem)

Go to: Drive Letter:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\Skyrim\SkyrimPrefs.ini

For those who haven't bought the game on steam, the SkyrimPrefs.ini file is located in Drive Letter:\Users\<USERNAME>\Documents\My Games\Skyrim

Add these lines, or change them if they already exist so they match the below:

bEnableFileSelection=1

If that fails: Go to: Drive Letter:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Skyrim Make the Skyrim folder un-read only.

v1: original. hope to expand it like crazy when modtools are released

    Thanks for putting your explanation out there. I was killing myself trying to make potions through alchemy. Great ideas for crafting.

  • #7

    I love this idea, I feel the same way about gems. In fact I often have a chest full of them in my house hoping to find some interseting use for them. I did that in morrwind and oblivion too.

    although im not gonna download this as it sounds like you got some great ideas for it so i think i'll wait till CK is out.

    i can't install... after download by curse client, the installation fail.

  • #4

    mod is great but it causes game to CTD from tanning rack :( ...

  • #5

    hmm... thats weird i wonder why it does that... i hadnt seen it... mod conflict? what mod you have that changes tanning rack too??

  • #3

    not sure if it could boost enchanting... enchanting works based on how strong the soul gem is and the enchantments u can get ... hmmm...

    ill keep it in mind... i was wanting to make it so u can add gems to a normal sword, and it gives it, fire damage, frost etc. ... i could make it so it produces some sword in the game already... but i want to wait for mod tools, then i can make new swords with my own enchantments, my own #s that each gem is worth, and have it so u can keep adding gems and add more effects.... hopefully

    Hiya, So i was wondering if you could make this so that you could use gem to boost Enchanting. Like a Ruby would bost Fire Damage, Spafire - Ice, garnet - Shock, Amethyst - Fortfy skills, Emerald - Stat skills, Diamond - everything else. (or something along those lines.) and it would improve it by like 5% for norm and 10% for flawless. that would be an awsome way to use gems. ^_^
