About This File
Ring of the Pathfinder speculates that the compass being visible is due to the player wearing a magical ring, the Ring of the Pathfinder. Removing the ring from the player's finger will make the compass disappear.

3) Equip the ring and the compass will reappear.
4) Lose or sell the ring and the compass will disappear forever.
I hope you'll like it!

Installation and removal:
- if you are playing the original version of Skyrim, download "RingOfThePathfinder.zip" and extract its content into your Data directory,
- if you are playing Skyrim Special Edition, download "RingOfThePathfinderSE.zip" and extract its content into your Data directory.
If you want to get it of this mod after playing with it and saving your game, EQUIP THE RING BEFORE REMOVING THE MOD.
I know that this is unusual but if your player is not wearing the ring when you remove the mod, you will lose the compass, forever; there is no available console command that could fix that. The ring not being enchanted, there is no risk in doing that.
Consoles Versions:
There will not be consoles versions of this mod.

Version 2
Added a fix for you to use if you happen to lose or sell the ring and the compass is invisible.
If you are in this case, do as follow:
- save your game,
- quit the game to the menu and disable the mod (do not delete it!),
- load the save you made at step 1),
- click on OK in the missing content warning message,
- save your game again,
- quit the game to the menu and enable the mod again,
- load the save you made at step 5,
and here you go! the compass is back and so is the ring!
Version 3 (and final)
This version introduces a less intrusive way of starting the mod.
On load your player will be equipped a ring and a letter will be added to their inventory. The letter explains what the ring does.
This mod is compatible with alternate starts mods.
Enjoy!
