VERSION 1.3 CHANGES:
-- Universal mask skillbook added.
-- "Revert to Original Form" skillbook is deleted. This skill is now teached by using any other skillbook along with its primary one.
-- Recipes for every mask, except the universal one, are now same as the original. Universal mask recipe now requires 4 ripped-off faces instead of masks themselves, because, since masks are now skillbooks, crafting universal mask would be pointless otherwise.
-- Changed values, weights, names and descriptions of the skillbooks so they correspond to values of the original masks.
-- Skillbooks no longer stack.
-- Fane's quest mask is now too a skillbook.
-- Masks are no longer given to the player at the start of the game.

do i need 1 face of each race? or just 4 of any race? also if theres a way to quote what someone said i dont know it so i just copy/pasted.

@Mei
I've explained the way I came to such design in the Features paragraph in the description. I know, it is far from perfect, but it is the best solution I could think of or was able to pull off while not ruining the immersion (at least for myself).

In any case, you can always just craft several masks for several characters if you wish.
Thanks for feedback.

Is it possible to instead make them scrolls that aren't consumed? This would make more sense

yeah upon testing (though it is an existing save so who knows if thats interfering with the other mod's ability to work anyways) it seems to make these other masks just turn into regular skillbooks :') so would be a good way to get free skillbooks on an existing save! but yet to find out if its possible to have both mods actually work in conjunction haha, just dont have the free time to start multiple new games with diff load orders etc to see if they could ever work :')

@TheForgotten Even though it's hard for me to say, Im about 99.999% sure it would NOT be. Yet still you can try, change load order back'n'forth.

Just keep in mind the note I left about "existing saves" when testing out my mod.

thought id ask it here cause you are much more responsive than the other author! would this be compatible with the mask of the shapeshifter enhanced mod? the one which lets you turn into other origin characters? if it would be, would it try turn those masks into skillbooks too? or would it keep them intact? either way is good, just as long as it wont just outright break my game haha!

turns out Organized Containers - DE is incompatible with this mod

For some reason I cant use Fane´s mask and if i craft a regular one upon using it i get a CTD

@The_Lie42 , exactly same way as the original: by talking to Fane about the mask, or interacting with eternal artifact in Blackpits cave.

Hey just wanted to ask if the book recipe was given at the start or given when picking up fane's mask? I playing in mutiplayer and just wanted to check if the mod was installed properly

Thanks for the info :D

@illy.exe Ways of obtaining the skillboks are very same as they are without the mod: crafting (recipes are exact same as vanilla) or looting one from Windego.

Also, my bad for not mentioning that any masks, that you already have on your characters, are NOT going to convert into skillbooks, you will have to craft/obtain new ones.

Included this in the mod description.

@AarkNoa Sorry I don't have time for testing it right now. In any case, I'm pretty much sure it is. I suggest you can easily try it out and test.

It isn't clear to me right now where the skillbooks come from.. I'm in act 2 already, do I need to start a new game or is there a way to pick up the skills after act 1?

Say is this compatible with "Shapeshifting Origins Tags"?

Nice idea!
