Update on 5/8/2015 to version 5.0.5
Hello, all. Tonight, I am releasing the 5.0 update for Become a Bard. Big thanks to Dragonborn Tom for his help in testing this release.

Change Notes:
  • Added enhanced, consolidated songbook menu that shows songbook titles and song names. This is something I've always wanted to do, now made possible by expired's UIExtensions, available here: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/57046/? This option is in the MCM only if you have SkyUI, SKSE, and UIExtensions installed. This took a lot of work on the guts of the mod, because I was adamant that the new menu work seamlessly alongside the old functionality, which does not require SkyUI or SKSE. So if you don't use those mods, no need to fear. Everything will work just as you're used to.

  • Added ability to rename the custom songbook and the custom songs via the MCM. This was made possible by SkyUILIB and mrpwn.

  • Updated the API for expansion packs. They now show up in the MCM and can also be consolidated into the enchanced songbook menu

  • Added an API for mod-added inns. The performance quest already worked in mod-added inns, but now mod authors can specifically choose to have an entry for their inn in the Bard Journal. Does not require the Become a Bard esp to be added as a master. I will document this better at some point and provide cut and paste code...

  • Fixed an issue with radiant spy quests for jarls that had been switched out as part of the civil war

  • Fixed an issue where performances in the Retching Netch did not register in the Bard Journal if a user was not using SKSE

  • NPC dancing is now disabled by default. For an existing playthrough, your current setting will be retained. This is because the dancing is pretty cool/funny once or twice, but after that not so much. You can still enable it in the MCM if you want.

  • Music increases speechcraft skill is now disabled by default. For an existing playthrough, your current setting will be retained. You can still enable it in the MCM if you want.

  • Still fully compatible with anything that changes skill trees or perks. The vanilla skills and perks are not touched in any way. This mod is designed to only add functionality, not to change existing functionality in any way.

  • Lots of general code optimization and changes.

Enjoy!!!

Greetings. Now that there is an updated version on Nexus, can this please be propagated to Bethesda.net so that Become A Bard can be installed through the in-game mod installment interface?

Because the current Bethesda version for Skyrim SE is so old that it still has the Retching Netch bug, that you announce above as "fixed".
