Russian Translation by Urayxor
Dutch Translation by Gothique Simmer
Mages, including Vampire Mages and Mooncasters from my other mods, can now read all books with magic.
Skill books require distinct files to function properly; these files are overrides of skill book object tunings and are not required for the mod to function with all other books.
Click on the links to download from G-Drive:
You only need one version for the skill books:
With all the Skill Books form all the pack released so far.
For the Skill Books, only install the packs you own.

Yes it works for Spellcaster from rank 3 up. If you're using the bookcases file from security lock I added a patch on that mod to make the two work together otherwise that one prevents the interactions from this one from showing up.

I feel dumb in that this doesn't seem to be working for me anymore and it used to a long time ago. Yes I am using the updated files, and I checked for conflicts but it just isn't working. Is it supposed to not work for all spellcasters?

I love this idea! The floating books was one of my favorite things about ROM.

No changes to the books as far as I know... I need to add the skill books from EL probably

Should this mod still be working? :)

Did you install the xml injector?

I cannot get this mod to work. Does it need an update?

Hello Zero ;) Well after trying this (and some other of your great mods) I posted the information about you (with a nice picture from this mod) on Tumblr and Twitter. I couldn't found some information if you have accounts there ;( If so it would be helpful if you could share these information here on Patreon . Best regards from Austria

You sure? I would have bet we had them at some point....

I don't think there ever were pet training skill books... which makes sense really.

Maybe there is a separate interaction I missed. I'll look into it.

It's a wonderful mod (and something I've been waiting for since the release of ROM), but there seems to be a problem: when I try to read a skillbook using magic, the skill level doesn't go up...

It works only directly on books and not from the bookcase. I already added the interaction to bookcase too but didn't have time to test it. I'll upload an update as soon as I'm done

Unfortunately it doesnt seem to be working for me. I downloaded the xml from the comments but that hasnt done it. My Spellcaster rank is maxed as well.
