Any chance of this being ported to SE/AE?

When you created this mod, did you know that in dark reach there are special mining places where you can mine soul gems?

This mod instantly cured my depression and gave me a soul

Would love it if you could post this to Nexus and port it to SSE. I used to love having it in my Skyrim play throughs but this time I wanted to play SSE and it doesn't have steam workshop support.

Anyway thank you for making such a great Mod.

Very useful mod. I no long run out of petty soul gems as I use those a lot.

This mod worked like magic, I suddenly don't hate everything anymore! Thanks Spockrates!

@redeyedraven lol, I like tho think that's the reason the deadra of madness had his portal in Cyrodill XD

@sp0ckrates i have been plaing with this mod, Perkus maximus and mining overhaul mod. (think those are the only ones that mess with the mining drops) And it seems to work fine, only thing is that the gems (garnets, amethists, rubies etc.) seems to be droping ad the same rate as the ores.
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 9. sep. 2016 kl. 2.38 
Redeyedraven: Yeah
redeyedraven 7. sep. 2016 kl. 15.47 
Oblivion was weird to begin with. Even for a TES-game. SO MUCH weird stuff.

1. Emperor Uriel Septim VII is murdered right in front of you (he has been alive and more or less responsible for every major event happening in EVERY PREVIOUS TES-game).

He was in planar captivity for a decade while the player cleared Arena...
He sent a champion to Daggerfall that made several timelines happen at the same time, resulting in a big happy family of cultures.
He sent the re-incarnation of Nerevar to Morrowind.
Then there's a plot-convenient secret tunnel in a prison, a murder, and a destiny.

2. Every city except for the capitol and that nordic-looking village look ALMOST EXACTLY the same!

3. Literal "hellgates" opening everywhere. And Cyrodiil is the TES-version of Rome, not London!

4. People have friendly faces and shiny bloom-effects when talking to you, even though hellgates are open everywhere. Now that's some naive optimism right there :D
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 6. sep. 2016 kl. 4.09 
Liosalpha: Good idea!
liosalpha 6. sep. 2016 kl. 3.53 
Hmm if you up for it ad a merge/split spell for the gems too. ^^
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 6. sep. 2016 kl. 3.42 
Liosalpha: Thanks for the info. Don't know much about Oblivion, having played it for only a brief time. Yeah, having a spell or some way to craft black soul gems is a good idea.
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 6. sep. 2016 kl. 3.40 
Lax: Thanks, and no problem.
liosalpha 4. sep. 2016 kl. 22.46 
ow, on the lore side... black soul gems used to be craftable with a ritual and a grand soul gem in oblivion. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Black_Soul_Gem
but then again the game has wierd tropes like ancient fresh food in dungeons. Wolfs with coins on them etc.
liosalpha 4. sep. 2016 kl. 22.40 
hmm i saw you said it does not conflict with anything... but still anyone tried it with the "mining overhaul" mod?
laxdannyz227 4. sep. 2016 kl. 16.44 
love this shit man, switching to mo though, so had to unsub :/
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 28. aug. 2016 kl. 7.49 
Thanks
Madelyn 27. aug. 2016 kl. 7.29 
What I think was happening is that the chance for each soul gem as I leveled was stacking until eventually there was a 100% chance for a gem. This is just a theory, and I may be completley wrong, as I have no knowledge of how modding Skyrim works, but it seems like a logical start.
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 27. aug. 2016 kl. 6.15 
Thanks. The soul gems are by level and have a percent chance. I'll make sure the chance for none is not 0% and release an update.
Madelyn 23. aug. 2016 kl. 4.29 
I was level 45 when testing the mod, and the soul gems I were getting were one of a random tier per ore, or a random gem.
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 23. aug. 2016 kl. 3.29 
Face: Hmmm. That didn't happen when I tested the mod. What level is your character and what soul gems are you getting when you mine?
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 23. aug. 2016 kl. 3.24 
Koffing: LOL!
Madelyn 21. aug. 2016 kl. 7.14 
I can confirm that it appears to be an issue with the mod itself. I've tried having only USLEEP and this activated in the data files and I am still having the issue.
Madelyn 21. aug. 2016 kl. 7.12 
I seem to be having an issue with this mod. I installed it today and decided to test it out, but I found that instead of having a chance or getting soul gems it garunteed level gems and soul gems with every ore. I don't have any mods that change the pickaxe, ore veins and mines. Thanks in advance for any help. I'll be testing for mod conflicts, and if anything has changed I'll post another comment.
Zombiehades4 16. aug. 2016 kl. 22.43 
There are geode veins in blackreach for this
ScorpioDog 13. aug. 2016 kl. 9.54 
Who's to say this isn't lore friendly? Why couldn't "wild" soul gems become fossilized into various kinds of ore during all the volcanic activity of Skyrim any less than other kinds of gemstones?
ScorpioDog 12. aug. 2016 kl. 21.17 
Doesn't seem to work for me. Does it require a new game to work? Where should it be positioned, for best results, in "the list"? Top? Bottom? Middle?

Nightingale: Good points, all! I'd recommend you not use this mod, as it's for those who care more about getting some free soul gems than living shackled to the Law of Lore.
Karliah the Nightingale 9. aug. 2016 kl. 7.30 
First off there's no evidence that Blackreach is the only hidden subterranian settlement belonging to the Dwarves, there could be some belonging to the Aelids for all we know scattered right across tamriel or even in atmora, a place we've only read about so far. As for Fallion he doesn't practice Necromancy, or at least not in its traditional sense, so you're quite right when you say he wouldn't scour the Soul Carin, he does, however, mention regularly that he has scoured the planes of oblivion and, in case you've forgotten, the Soul Carin IS a plane of oblivion. There's no reason to think that now he's settled down in Morthal he doesn't have some very old friends who supply him. He likely also helped with moving the Atronach Forge and may even have knowlage of how to summon Blacks on a mass scale.
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 9. aug. 2016 kl. 2.10 
I have the answers to your questions:

1. There's nothing wrong with it. It's just illogical.

2. It's illogical that all of the soul gems you can find throughout Skyrim came from Blackreach.

3. You can go to Soul Carin, but it's illogical to think that's how Falion gets his black soul gems to sell you every few days. At least, my character never met him wandering around there.

4. You make a good point. But then the game is flawed, since black soul gems aren't as rare as they logically should be.
Karliah the Nightingale 8. aug. 2016 kl. 8.50 
So I have a question: What's wrong with the Vanilla Soul Gem Mining? Why did you need to create another way of mining them? Oh and if you need Blacks why not just go to the Soul Carin? How can it be considered a "Lore Friendly" mod when Soul Gems come from their own vein and Blacks are not natrually occouring but instead are sourced by those "cleaver" or lucky enough to travel to the Soul Carin and back?

Fabian: Are you subscribed to any other mods? If so, make sure you have the DLCs each one requires--Hearthfire, Dawnguard or Dragonborn. If a mod requires a DLC you don't have, unsubscribe from it. This mod doesn't require any DLC.
fabiansassassin 27. juli 2016 kl. 9.10 
what do ido if it crashes every time i try to open it
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 27. juli 2016 kl. 5.15 
Fabian: Make sure Steam is online. Select the Subscribe button on the Description page. Launch Skyrim. Wait for it to say all mods finished syncing before selecting Play.

HOW DO YOU DOWNLOAD IT?
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 25. juli 2016 kl. 3.17 
There are more in one of the Dwemer ruins, but it's hard to get to.
Capra 24. juli 2016 kl. 22.53 
I always wondered where soul gems come from...and this mod gives me an answer.

Jannevellamo: I know! Right?
jannevellamo 14. juli 2016 kl. 3.07 
I love this mod, it's extremely useful and it works.

This mod has been included in "THE ULTIMNATE LORE FRIENDLY SKYRIM MODS COLLECTION", updated 07/13/2016. Thank you for your wonderful addition to this collection. Please check it out at http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=106745968 .
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 11. juli 2016 kl. 11.13 
Sirthursday: The mod does add a 10% chance of getting a soul gem, so there's now a 20% chance (1 in 5) of getting something extra each time you mine an ore. Thanks for trying it out. 😊
sp0ckrates  [skaper] 11. juli 2016 kl. 11.11 
Sirthursday: The mod doesn't change the percent chance of getting a gem. It's still 10% for every ore mined. So if you mine 5 ores, you have a 1 out of 10 chance of getting a gem for each one.
