Just pick up, don't read books already read

[dizietemblesssma]

Does anyone know of a mod that causes books that have been read to just be picked up? There are mods that change the read action to pick up action, but I'd like to read unread books just not read ones.

Pick up books simple

This mod's non-SKSE version lets you ready weapon / spell / bare hands to read the book. Otherwise it loots the book.

This mod's SKSE version offers a toggle that allows the user to select whether to read or pick up behavior depending upon 1st or 3rd person view

 

Sometimes Pick Up Books

This mod is non-SKSE. Ready weapon / spell / bare hands to pick up the book. Otherwise it reads the book. Stealing a book is allowed only when sneaking. Unsure if a book that would be stolen can be read first.

 

moreHUD

Has an option to show an icon indicating the read status when pointing at a book with the crosshair. Will help you to decide when to switch in and out of "read mode".

 

moreHUD Inventory Edition

This will pass the read status icon into the inventory. Can be helpful to know if script added books or books looted from a container have been read or not.

 

 

Please note that I have only used the moreHUD mods. The other two are results of searching. The theory is that with the combination of one of the first two and then the moreHUD mods, you should be able to account for all books that need to be read and avoid reading any of the "out in the open world" books that have already been read.

Yes, I have the more hud mods, very useful. I found the others too but was hoping for something a bit more automagical:)

It's not a game breaker, would have been nice though.
