Unable to use enchantments from mod items on other items

[7vincent7black7]

So I'm using this Tear of Abyss mod that adds a dungeon, some swords, a boss, and some cool-enough armour with really cool enchantments, imo. However, I disenchanted htem for hteir enchantments, and wanted to enchant my leather armour with them. And hte problem arises that the enchantments are apparently limited to what you can enchant them with. They are not allowed to be used with chest pieces, greaves, boots, gauntlets, helmets, swords, axes, maces, rings, amulets, bracers, robes, shirts, pants, shoes, or sweetrolls. So basically, I can't seem to use them at all.

I remember last I had skyrim installed, someone had mentioned a mod that allowed you to use enchantments from mods on anything you wanted, but I can't remember the name of hte mod, and Google is being literally no hep at all.

First, is your character able to do this at all? Many items are either a too high a level, or you don't have the perk yet. The enchantment may not be available until you have the proper perk.

Then, if an enchanted item with a non standard enchantment is added through a mod, it may not be available in the enchanting menu.

And, not every enchantment can be applied to every item. some are limited to the type of object they can be applied to.

I figured this out. I had to pull it up in Creation Kit. So I loaded up Skyrim.esm, Update.esm, and TearofAbyss.esp. Then I set TearofAbyss.esp to Active File.

Magic -> Enchantments -> _Enchantment_Timeless_Boots (or one of the other 3 enchantments that are applied to the Mod armor pieces)

After double-clicking that window open, I saw that hte Worn Restrictions on these enchantments was set to None, which means they had been statically applied to armor pieces by the mod author, but had been set to be unable to be enchanted to anyone or anything at all. In order to resolve this I opened the dropdown list and set the Worn Restriction to MarterialsArmor, and did that for the other 3 enchantments.

Upon loading up my game save after saving and exiting, I found I could suddenly use those enchantments on my leather armor. :)
