Acquisitive Soul Gems

Multi-Threaded
v. 4.5.1
Author: eyeonus

This mod causes Soul Gems to trap souls of the same size as the gem,
preventing smaller souls from being trapped, such as trapping a Petty
Soul in a Common Soul Gem or a Greater Soul in a Black Soul Gem, etc.

The book "[Settings]ASG Options" allows the easy changing of the following
options, which will also appear in the MCM menu if SkyUI is installed:

OnlyBlack (default:true):
If set to (true), will force the Black Soul Gems and Black Star to be
only able to trap Black Souls, otherwise will allow them to trap the same
souls that Grand Soul Gems and Azura's Star can trap, respectively.

OnlyFull (default:false):
If set to (true), will not allow Azura's Star or the Black Star to trap souls
smaller than Grand. Has no effect on the Black Star if OnlyBlack is true.

SilenceSucces (default:false),
SilenceFail (default:false):
If set to (true), will turn off in-game notifications of successful or failed
soul trap attempts, respectiverly.

In the console, if available, "help ASGMSettings" will display the current

settings.
They can be changed with "set ASGMSettings to x", where "x" is a number between 0
and 31.

Installation:

Place the contents of the archive in your Skyrim/Data directory.

Works with Nexus Mod Manager and ModOrganizer.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:
Make certain that the version of "magicsoultrapfxscript.pex" is the one provided by
this mod.

Compatibility:

As long as no other mod overwrites magicSoulTrapFXScript.pex, there will be no

compatibility issues.
This mod makes the same fixes to the script as the Unofficial Patch and can
overwrite it without issue.

This means it will work with mods like "Perkus Maximus" and "Apocalypse - Magic of
Skyrim" WITHOUT needing a patch.

Any mods that also modify the above script will be incompatible unless otherwise
noted by that mod's author.

Note on "filled" Soul Gems:

A "Grand Soul Gem" with a Grand Soul trapped in it (ID# 0002E4FC)
is not the same thing as a "Grand Soul Gem (Grand)" (ID# 0002E4FF)
even though they look exactly alike in game. There are mods that will
automagically replace the former with the latter, in part to fix
the Soul Gem dropping bug. I strongly suggest you get one of them.
The Unofficial Patch is a really good one, as it fixes other things as well.
