Installation:

Extract the .esp file to your \Skyrim\data directory, and enable the file in your game launcher.

If you correctly installed the mod and your Data Files option is greyed out in the launcher, you will need to do the following.

1. Go to Documents\My Games\Skyrim

2. Open up the SkyrimPrefs.ini file

3. Look about half way down for [Launcher]

4. Add "bEnableFileSelection=1" to the bottom of that section without quotes and save the file.

The Data Files option should now appear on the launcher.

This mod will not conflict with other mods. If the same recipe is included in another mod, however, it may appear twice ingame.

LAotB can be enhanced with Legendary Smithing Upgrades by Lucubration and Weapon and Armor Fixes by Headbomb. LSU gives items the smithing upgrade perks that they normally do not have. WAF does the same while fixing many other problems with vanilla weapons.

Uninstallation:

In the rare event that you want to uninstall this mod, simply delete the ESP. Items that have been upgraded will not lose their improvements.

Known Bugs:

None! Go find some.
