CS2: Skyrim Expanded remix

CREDITS

• CS2: Skyrim Offensive by JaoVitorLm: the original mashup this remix is built on (its plugin, guns, hands, animations, HUD, buy menu and smoke).
• Counter-Strike 2 by Valve: weapons, skins, cases, music kits, sounds and icons are read from your own CS2 install (nothing of Valve's is in the download).
• The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition by Bethesda Game Studios.
• CommonLibSSE-NG (CharmedBaryon, alandtse and the CommonLibSSE authors), MinHook (Tsuda Kageyu), Dear ImGui (Omar Cornut), nlohmann/json (Niels Lohmann), spdlog and fmt (Gabi Melman, Victor Zverovich), stb_image (Sean Barrett), nanosvg (Mikko Mononen), zlib (Jean-loup Gailly, Mark Adler).
• Source 2 Viewer / ValveResourceFormat (ValveResourceFormat contributors), SkiaSharp, SPIRV-Cross, texconv / DirectXTex (Microsoft), PyNifly / nifly (BadDogSkyrim), Mutagen (Noggog).
• Python (Python Software Foundation), Pillow, resvg / resvg_py.
• Address Library for SKSE Plugins (meh321), Ultimate ASI Loader (ThirteenAG).

This is my first remix, made from someone else's prompt and download.

What's different from the original

• Multiplayer, CS side (up to 4): the host presses Play, friends press Join on this page (Melty's relay connects you, no ports to open), then everyone opens L > PLAY and types the same password. Everyone keeps their own Skyrim save. Shared enemies near the group, friends' stand-ins with their guns, tracers and health bars; friendly fire is on; CS2 kill feed, scoreboard, chat and pings.
• Tower Defense: a tower in an open field, 15 seconds to buy, then a mammoth. Damage, hits and DPS on screen. The host starts it for the whole lobby.
• Gun skills: Pistols, SMGs, Rifles, Snipers, Heavy and Gamba (cases) skill trees with perks; guns get stronger as you train.
• Style kills and critical kills: gold for headshots, no-scopes, 360s, jump shots, long shots, collaterals and multi-kills; a critical kill plays your MVP anthem with a slow-motion kill cam.
• Enchanted guns: enchant a CS2 gun at an Arcane Enchanter and its enchantment lands on what your bullets hit. Conjured Rounds: from Conjuration 20, a shot can save its bullet.
• Cases at true CS2 odds at every merchant, CS2-style case opening, StatTrak kill counters, Sell Duplicates.
• All 100 CS2 music kits, a Random kit, CS2 music from the boot logo on.
• CS2 gunplay: CS2's own accuracy (moving, jumping, crouching, spraying) and recoil patterns for all 21 guns; counter-strafing works.
• CS2-style menus (L), weapon sway, CS2's 90 field of view, conjured guns, CS2 knives, Legend Stones, forged guns and ammo.
• Waiting counts as sleep: wait an hour or more for the Rested bonus and to clear debuffs.

Needs: Skyrim Special Edition 1.7.104 and Counter-Strike 2 installed (free). The first Play builds the weapons from your own CS2, about 10 minutes, once. To play together, everyone needs the same Skyrim version. Survival Mode turns fast travel off: switch it off in Settings > Gameplay if you want fast travel.

Thanks to JaoVitorLm for the original, to everyone whose tools made this possible, and to everyone who plays it!
