📋 About This Mod

This mod hides some equipped weapons when they're not held in hand, so they don't stay attached to your back. I think it looks bad.

All version:

- hides bows, crossbows, rifles and shields

Ranged version:

- hides bows and crossbows, BUT NOT RIFLES

I'm not sure how rifles look like as I haven't seen one in-game yet, so I didn't include them in here

Under optional files I added separate files which hide only one weapon class so you can mix and match to your liking:

- light crossbows

- medium crossbows

- heavy crossbows

All of these versions are PTFs so they shouldn't collide with any other mods. Unless they would edit particular weapon's line in weapons_class.xml, for example to change aiming parameters or which ammo it uses.

If there are any bugs please report them, as I can't check if it works with heavy crossbows and rifles myself yet.

- added shields and changed mod's name from "hide ranged weapons" to "hide weapons"

- changed "all" version to "ranged" - if you download this new version it will have a different mod id, so if you had a previous version and download this new one, the same mod will be installed in two folders which is unnecessary

28. 07. 2025

- added "All" version which (this time) hides all bows, crossbows, rifles and shields - everything in one file

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Clean solution for a common annoyance—no more giant bows blocking your view
  • Recent update (July 2025) means it's likely compatible with current game version
  • Lightweight visual tweak with 81 endorsements from players who wanted this

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects four weapon types—other obstructive items like staves or two-handers may still clip
  • No screenshots or detailed description, so you're flying blind on the exact visual effect
  • Small mod with limited community feedback (81 endorsements) so edge cases might be untested
🎯 Is This For You?

If you're tired of weapon models clipping through walls or blocking your view, this is a quick fix. Skip if you want more comprehensive weapon visibility options or gameplay changes.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If the mod doesn't work, check that you've placed the files in the correct game directory (e.g., Data folder for Bethesda games).
  • Since it's a visual mod, try it with your current load order—no special patches needed unless you use other weapon mods.
  • If you use a mod manager, install it through that to keep track of updates and uninstalls easily.
