Please oh god of 1.5.97 USSP Box patcher, bestow upon me your many gifts to ward off the box-daedra interlopers!

I had to do the same thing as others here after realizing on LOOT that my USSP was 1.6+, luckily my game took the new 1.5.97 one seamlessly aside the box letters

You're a life saver. Also, if anyone else is having issues with missing letters (square boxes instead), download and install Racemenu Compatibility, and install the USSEP patch that is included.

Forgot to mention. You have to look in old files to find the correct version (if you're on 1.5.97.)

Impossible to say. Only xEdit knows, if you don't.

i had the same issue with the boxes on text, and yeah, was ussep the fault. i downloaded the file that was provided here and got no fix. Finally lurking in my old installation folder (i also switched from nxm to mo ) and recovered the ussep patch that finally solved the issue,

search this version of useep  Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch-266-4-2-5b-1623727189.7z  instead of installing Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch 1.5.97.0.8 that could helped others, but in my case nothing else worked.

 

@traison ty for helping in this tread. maybe my mods have something so broke and old that your fixes wont helped me. but ty ❤️

Hey i had the problem with boxes in Books and Letters and just want to share my solution.

 

My problem was the mod Wider MCM Menu for SkyUI (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/22825), i picked the large Version.

I think some mods didn´t support the size the larger Version, so just picked a smaler Version.

So I found out Babodialogue is giving me rectangle boxes for text at Dragonsreach, and the Dragonsreach Jarl's Quarters. Any idea where I would look at for that record change? Searching in Location showed the text for Dragonsreach from Babodialogue was still in english. Would applying the script restore record names from master on Skyrim.esm fix that?

 

Update: It was a different mod, Daedric Pei from Sexy Bono, checked in Cell locations for everything related to Dragonsreach for foreign text

I would consider things like Locations, Cells, Markers and the language files. Also it may be possible to change the name of things with Quests by assigning them as quest aliases. Seems most likely that you'd be dealing with one of the first 3 things mentioned here.

 

I can't see the screenshot you posted, but if you're seeing that name on your map for instance then it's a Marker. If its on the door then its the interior Cell itself or the Location it is assigned to - can't quite remember which of them sets the name.

Record names is probably not what you think it is. I'd be careful with that. Tbh I'm not sure what that would even do.

So then use xEdit to find out which mod was the last one to edit the name field of that armor record.

All "square" issue its related to some mod that alters game letters somehow with simbols that arent on ABC-Z

Sort of. Latin games can't display cyrillic symbols or syllabaries/logographies. I imagine the same is true in reverse, unless Bethesda for some reason included the latin alphabet in the other variants, but then didn't push the changes back to the latin region.

 

There's also the posibility that the base game could display these characters, but everyone here has a font mod which does not support an extended range of symbols. Font mods have been a thing on the Nexus for probably a decade afterall.
