I can recommend this mod, because it has features that should have been included in the game, but under absolutely no circumstances should you attempt to communicate with the author of this mod, because he is an utterly toxic person with absolutely no social skills, as evidenced by his responses to harmless questions asked by users on here, Nexus Mods, and elsewhere. I don't know why he chooses to be that way, but if you have any issues with this mod, ask literally anyone else on Earth for support, because all he is going to do is condescend you and call you stupid. It's a decent mod, but it's nowhere near good enough to put up with his extremely poor attitude.

I have a quest to perform for the Jarl of Riften, but she has no dialogue option. I can perform for other Jarls, but not her specifically.

Any solutions or cheats I can enter to complete it?

There are two songs that are related to the civil war that's going on in the game. I don't remember what they are. It's been a long time. If you play one of those songs in front of an NPC from the opposite faction, they will assume you are their enemy.

Can this be updated on bethesda.net mods so that it can be installed through the in-game mod installing interace? This is now lagging heavily behind Nexus.

AMAZING MOD

The concept is cool, but I can't stand the bards with their propaganda on repeat, Mikael is probably the worst of them all and.
Unfortunaly there isn't a WS mod that lets you tell bards to shut the fuck up..

So is this still working for standard Skyrim + Addons?
Maximilien 30 Aug, 2022 @ 2:30am 
AWESOME

For some reason it's not working. I can ask to play at inns, but i don't have the "spell" in any of my powers.
furgorapido 17 Mar, 2022 @ 9:22am 
Ewrything work good and its still wanderful. Thank you.
furgorapido 16 Mar, 2022 @ 2:09pm 
Interesting! I will try it!
Archon 28 Feb, 2022 @ 9:57am 
This is my favourite Skyrim mod of all time.
Móðsognir 23 Apr, 2021 @ 2:18am 
Even if you never plan on playing a bard, the number of new songs played by NPC bards makes this mod worth it.
Leiishroom 4 Apr, 2021 @ 7:25am 
I'd love a list of any of the Khajiit songs, they're absolute bangers
Zetamax 18 Feb, 2021 @ 11:45pm 
Great Mod, works perfectly. I would have loved the immersion integration of having it tied into having to do the quest to join the college and become a bard before allowing the skill (but i did that myself by waiting with my character, so no biggy). Nice work, thank you!

@Pvt. Private

The nexus apparently has been updated to the last workshop version! It’s even got a download with manager option so there’s no need to try use both WS and your mod manager

I was just checking to see how outdated the Nexus version was because I absolutely used to love this mod and can’t wait to try the latest version
Pvt. Pirate 24 Jan, 2021 @ 7:05pm 
can you please update the nexus version? using steam workshop for skyrim mods is fucked up if using a mod manager, which EVERYONE should do anyway.

whats the Malukahs 6 song?........eh
DƩ4X 20 Nov, 2020 @ 1:17am 
do I need any configuration tool for using this mod?
Al_Seimers 3 Oct, 2020 @ 4:40pm 
This mod is excellent! Everything works for me and I find Malukah's songs and her voice to be absolutely perfect.

I was having the same problem as ZoSar84. I got the ID by typing "help custom". The ID for the Custom Songbook is 0B012852.

This Mod used to work for me but it doesn't any longer. I don't know what I did to break this. I even went for a totally new install of game but that didn't do the trick either. Could somebody who has this Mod working post his or her Mod load order. Note I play LE version of Skyrim. Mod used to work but for reason I cant work out it doesn't any longer.
Milo 13 Aug, 2020 @ 7:55am 
It doesnt work for me? i dont see the spell and it doesnt show up in mcm either. And when i try installing it via Nexus Mods Manager the game crashes instantly
Gnat 28 Jun, 2020 @ 6:34pm 
good content right here, play some music at an idiot and get some cash
Alandiir 22 Jun, 2020 @ 3:16pm 
Mittlerweile bräuchte ich glaube ich doch etwas Hilfe. Nach etlicher Zeit des nicht spielens von Skyrim hab ich es endlich mal wieder rausgekramt. Neuinstallation, keinerlei altdateien vorhanden. Ende vom Lied ist das einige Songs ganz normal abgespielt werden, die meisten jedoch geben keinen Ton aus. Nachdem ich alles auf .wav Dateien konvertiert hatte gab es ebenfalls keine Besserung. Mein Charakter zückt auch seine Laute und klimmpert darauf herum, aber es gibt keinen Ton. Ich hoffe mir kann jemand helfen.

Finally a mod that makes the Bards College do something! This should've been a built in feature, thanks for making it a feature!
Hekate 18 May, 2020 @ 4:44pm 
I love this mod. Amazing!
Angrod 6 May, 2020 @ 7:41am 
how do I equip the lute on my back?
ringofdeath 8 Apr, 2020 @ 12:38am 
sell well it's past the point where you can't even search this skyrim
ZockVogel 24 Feb, 2020 @ 2:59pm 
can anyone PLEAAASE tell me the ID of the custom songbook, or a command for the console? I can't get the book from Viarmo...
PRIMALUS 14 Jan, 2020 @ 11:37am 
This mod is very good. It should be part of the game as good as it is.
Lorf 12 Jan, 2020 @ 8:47pm 
The question is: Why would the updated version be on steam and not nexus? lol
scoodycat 10 Jan, 2020 @ 2:44pm 
any chance of adding damaging/buff songs in future? to make it a true class?
zazzmagicmaster 29 Dec, 2019 @ 4:06pm 
I play classical guitar, concert flute, and viola. I wonder if there is a way to put a fiddle player in Skyrim, as I'd like to make a bard band mod.
Biggie951 27 Dec, 2019 @ 3:19am 
beautiful mod. i did also happen to found a simple exploit where you perform get your gold and then walk out and back in and you can perform again. game breaking with the perk bonuses
Keepenater 20 Dec, 2019 @ 9:47pm 
Onyxdragonlady console commands. Type: help "bard" 0 after that use the page up button to find the journal and then type: player.additem <insert long number beside bard's journal> 1
zumo 2 Nov, 2019 @ 4:29am 
Very good mod
Onyx 24 Oct, 2019 @ 2:30pm 
I've lost my bard journal somehow. Anyway to get it back?
Lonesome stranger 25 Jul, 2019 @ 1:54am 
Fantastic mod ,very immersive . Thank you for making one of the best mods of the workshop .
thenerdydovahpikachu 7 Jul, 2019 @ 6:33pm 
very interesting mod here. it does give the instruments some purpose, so great idea.
Bill 3 Jul, 2019 @ 7:25pm 
instead of siri, i would say "hey bard, play 1200's despacito"


despacito was invented by legends of music i know my history xd






Don't take this seriously, it is a joke.:steammocking:
Wolf-Senpai 1 Jun, 2019 @ 10:25pm 
it keeps telling me i dont have the right instrument even though i have collected every instrument in the game, are there any known mod conflicts?
WALLBURG 14 May, 2019 @ 2:52pm 
can i play ragnar the red?
st_magus 8 May, 2019 @ 4:44pm 
This mod freakin rules! Thank you, I was annoyed that I couldn't play my instruments or sing when I joined the useless bard college. The music is awesome. Love the different versions of the original Skyrim tunes, plus the other great stuff. How blessed art the modders; they maketh thy games to not suck. They removeth thy annoyance, they delighteth thy soul. They impoveth thy gaming experience a thousandfold. For yea, devs hath NO idea wtf fun is, as they obviously don't playeth their own games. Peace be upon thee.
[VOX] Ivohardy 28 Apr, 2019 @ 3:27pm 
Good mod but would be better if you could see what songs you are going to play when you open the song book. Would also be good if you could cancel the song if you changed your mind.
Durbz 2 Apr, 2019 @ 12:30am 
Should you start a new game b4 playing this mod? I would love to give it a try but would hate to restart from 90.
are_nige 24 Mar, 2019 @ 10:01am 
You can ask him to "take a break." Or murder him?
ChewedPencil 5 Mar, 2019 @ 8:56pm 
I HATE Mikael in the Banmered Mare... He keeps playing in the middle of my songs...
擦伤战士Non Serviam 13 Feb, 2019 @ 8:16am
