It still works with dynamic traits if you read all but the end the read for a quick second before you exercise to reaply the modifier.

i like the new names, just need to add category for them as Skill Books like the others & i would not have any suggestions left

Doesn't seem to be compatible with Fitness & Workout Overhaul

Is the tooltip not working properly? Where it says book name, at least in the first strength book, some text that probably shouldn't be there, well, is.

the grind never ends :steamthumbsup:

My man, you straight up made something so basic yet so logical, instead of totally breaking the XP system down under.

.05 i mean
Rainoa Apr 7, 2023 @ 9:15am 
reading speed is controlled server side, think on my game i set MinutesPerPage, i set mine to .005 lolz
Z40 Apr 2, 2023 @ 7:42pm 
How to control reading speed? I subscribed to a mod reduced the pages of vanilla books, I don't know how to change the mod book reading speed.

Yeah, this mod is incompatible with Dynamic Traits. I'm assuming it's because Dynamic Traits checks your weight every so often and checks for a modifier on certain skills such as long blunt when you reach a certain level in it (Something like that, it's been a while since I've played it). It probably overwrites this because it looks at all skills and doesn't take into account strength/fitness skill books. Not sure how to go around this, but I haven't really had time to look at it, and I never really got a response from the dynamic traits mod author about it.

Mod seems to be broken, possibly because of Dynamic Traits? The bonus xp multiplier just dissapears after a few seconds.
HansingBansing Jan 19, 2023 @ 6:21am 
oh okay didn't know that Thanks
Regisky  [author] Jan 19, 2023 @ 6:02am 
What about your weight? If it's an unhealthy weight you can't gain any more xp in fitness
HansingBansing Jan 19, 2023 @ 5:49am 
i meant "unfit"
HansingBansing Jan 19, 2023 @ 5:31am 
no i don't but is it the "weak" trait going away?
Regisky  [author] Jan 19, 2023 @ 5:01am 
Do you have dynamic traits installed?
HansingBansing Jan 19, 2023 @ 3:27am 
for some reason when i got to level 6 in fitness and then after read the fitness book i cant get any xp .

Sprite looks like a hard cover jjba book lol

Thank you for awesome mod! Works good and very usefull! :cozybethesda:
Zanklev™ Sep 22, 2022 @ 6:09am 
Hey I don't know if this is possible but is there a way you could prevent the mod "Book Consumer" from instantly granting levels for these books? Book Consumer allows you to instantly gain one level then a xp multiplier for the second level for every book you read. When I used it with this I was being granted the level still for my fitness and strength which I found to be too op.

Spaces in the mod folder name seems to cause issues
Regisky  [author] Sep 1, 2022 @ 5:02pm 
That's probably it then, although what doesn't make sense to me is that you can use other book mods with no issue, it must be inbetween levels then.

After reading the Showcase for Dynamic Traits, I learned that it adds XP multipliers for achieving regularity with exercises. I believe it is overriding your book's bonuses.
DemonGuy Jul 13, 2022 @ 9:45am 
cool, thank you!
Regisky  [author] Jul 13, 2022 @ 9:29am 
No but it'll only spawn in areas you haven't looted
DemonGuy Jul 13, 2022 @ 3:58am 
Do you have to start a new game for this mod to work?
Discorded Passion Jun 30, 2022 @ 5:05pm 
cdda reading (mod option required version) isnt working and caused this mod to also not work, without cdda reading this mod is working.
Regisky  [author] Jun 30, 2022 @ 1:30pm 
Not even one of the lower tier fitness books in schools? You might be extremely unlucky or you might be using a mod that has an outdated version of the ItemsDistribution file. If you suspect it's a mod conflict make a new save with the same mods with literature items set to abundant and see what happens, if not check to see if any mods that haven't been updated in a while are loaded (I don't remember how long, it was either .52 or .53 that changed item distros)
Discorded Passion Jun 29, 2022 @ 7:32pm 
raided 2 schools and police stations and never found the books. mod might not be working on the latest version... could be a mod conflict though.
vvitchr Jun 5, 2022 @ 9:47pm 
No errors appeared to show, and the other books/skills are not affected. I think the issue might be how Dynamic Traits handles passive skills, but I'm not sure.
Regisky  [author] Jun 5, 2022 @ 8:23pm 
Any errors? It's weird that this is affected by the Dynamic Traits mod since it's only an xp book mod, are you also having issues with other books?
vvitchr Jun 3, 2022 @ 3:20pm 
Generally no fitness/strength related traits, but the issue persists regardless of starting traits from my experience.
Regisky  [author] Jun 3, 2022 @ 5:39am 
Which traits are you using?
vvitchr Jun 2, 2022 @ 11:41am 
The mod isn't compatible with the Dynamic Traits mod. When gaining exp the multiplier gets removed.
Axebeard May 22, 2022 @ 9:31pm 
Awesome, thanks.
Regisky  [author] May 22, 2022 @ 5:44pm 
Works like any other book, it adds a skill multiplier
Axebeard May 22, 2022 @ 12:49am 
Do the books add a skill multiplier or actually increase the skill?
Raptor May 9, 2022 @ 2:37pm 
I want such a book too
Regisky  [author] May 7, 2022 @ 7:14am 
what
Token McFatkid May 7, 2022 @ 4:32am 
Makes Mod that allows Strength and Fitness to be gained via reading books.

Tags it "Immersive"

Regisky  [author] Apr 18, 2022 @ 7:10am 
Yes.
The Cardinal Apr 18, 2022 @ 4:46am 
Does this work in MP?
Regisky  [author] Apr 11, 2022 @ 6:17pm 
The books are very rare, check police stations or schools for your best bet at finding them
RedStar Apr 11, 2022 @ 3:39pm 
so i cant find any of these books is the mod broken?
Regisky  [author] Apr 9, 2022 @ 7:28pm 
It sounds to me like some sort of weird mod incompatibility, try running this mod by itself and see if you still have the issue. I tried it myself that way and it worked just fine.
Lord of Cats Apr 8, 2022 @ 2:59pm 
@Regisky It's any book, once you have the multiplier, it will vanish after a moodle comes up, sleep, or quit the game, and if you completed the book you can't get it back. I noticed though that maxing out a exercise grants it's own multiplier, so hopefully when that get applied, so will the book bonus.
Rookie Apr 8, 2022 @ 1:23pm 
I figured out my issue was a file that i modified myself to up the spawn rate of the books in a single player game i had. And when steam downloads the workshop content they don't redownload it to the game itself but rather to a workshop file that is outside the game. I needed to copy that and paste it back into the correct directory for the mod to work.
Regisky  [author] Apr 8, 2022 @ 12:11pm 
Is there any specific book you guys have this issues with, or just any book in general?
Lord of Cats Apr 8, 2022 @ 7:28am 
I also have a similar problem with the multiplier vanishing and unable to reread the book to get it back. I'm trying to get an exercise to max regularity to see if that makes it appear again.
