These books have similar contents ... We will check if one of them was created by mistake. It's Castle Golden Ford. Thanks for pointing out the inconsistency of the name, I noted it in the bug tracker

Many thanks, Stuemper - I will make the Golden Ford change in my ESP.

While you are thinking about it, is the Journal of the Apothecarii (00132DC1 _00E_NQ22DiaryApothekari) supposed to have the model of a book or a journal? It is the one with the large group of torn out pages. At the moment it is a book but it could easily be changed into a journal. I do have some Diary type book covers because vanilla Skyrim had a couple of "Journal of..." or "Diary of..." books in it but have a lot of unused journals ready to be used too.

Should be a diary or journal., if it can't have a "lose page" model in the inventory!

There appears to be an actual book and seven loose pages as part of that quest... assuming the book itself is actually used. The loose pages are certainly different text to the book itself.

If there is enough of it to be written in and then have a decent chunk of pages torn out and scattered, it probably should remain as a book. The seven loose pages of course would all be of the same paper type - that is easy to do.

I have had a look at this in the CK and there is a duplication issue... the first book is in three world cells to be discovered and the second book is in one.

I would advise making the first book the real one and making all four instances that book. I will assume "Glimmerdust and Its Application" is the correct title for the cover.

EDIT : I have found some more unused items that may want their EditorID to be altered to end in _Unused as I believe they may be unused.

000151BD _00E_BookFill01 "Empty Book"
00106763 _00E_BookFill03 "Empty Book"
0003807C _00E_NQ03_Clue01Note "First Hint"
00038077 _00E_NQ03_Clue02Note "Second Hint"

I am also unsure if the following Journal is supposed to be in the game world but one copy exists...

0002B3EE _00E_TagebuchBergpass "Journal"

I will make a cover for it anyway but while I know the reference it is making, I was unsure if its placement was intentional.

I know, but it may have been duplicated and slightly altered intentionally. As I am not the book / lore expert I've forwarded it, so I have to wait for a response myself.

Edit:
So, they are intentionally very similar written and we will expand them.
_00E_BookDrugs was written by wildmages / rhalâta (Undercity cult), so it maybe a dirty model would fit and the title will be: "Glimmerkappenstaub - Mixturen und Rezepte" / "Glimmercap Dust - Mixtures and Recipes".

_00E_BookGlimmerstaubrezepte was written by alchemists of the order, so a clean model would fit. The title will be changed to "Glimmerkappenstaub - Anwendung und Gefahren" / "Glimmercap Dust - Applications and Dangers".

I've deleted this books for the next patch, they are indeed unused. Thanks
The placement of this one is intentional. But i think they is no special cover needed, it's just an "Easter Egg"

I thought I would resist the temptation to do anything too similar to the Argonian Maid covers for this one. Since King Lewd is a very common book, I opted for a cloth cover...

Stuemper - I have spotted an other oddity...

0004BBE7 _00E_NQ05_Map "Map of the Bandit Lairs" has an unresolved FormID for a quest. Is this an unused item?

The cover looks great

The funny thing about 0004BBE7 ist, that it's not in our internal .esm file anymore, so it already got removed because it was unused

I have just done the Map that we find in Jespar's box for MQ11b and it got me thinking about Localization...

1. What languages is Enderal officially distributed in? Is it German and English or are there others?

2. What languages does Enderal have fan translations for?

3. For the official Enderal release, can the BSA files (specifically EEN - Textures2.bsa) be localized for German and English as well as the voice acting and the ESP?

The reason I ask is that the Book Covers will have writing on the textures (in EEN - Textures2.bsa) that will need localizing for distribution so I would like to start planning this in advance.

On the subject of Jespar's Map, I hope you like the increase in texture detail that I have managed to achieve. By following the technique I used in the Skyrim Treasure Maps, I have a full 850x1000px for the picture on the map rather than the current 290x389px that is just stretched to fit.

SPOILER : Main Quest Map

[+] Main Quest Map

I should explain that the current map is a simple Note with an IMAGE tag superimposed and stretched onto it linking to the textures/enderal/books/MQ11b/Schatzkarte.png whereas the one I have done for the mod is drawn directly onto the Note texture itself and can take advantage of Photoshop blend modes.
