📋 About This Mod
Better hands
this mod changes hands in first person view to better looking ones from "Robert's bodies" mod.
added alternate version where orc, nord and redguard males use hands from "better bodies" mod. i think that robert's hands may be too soft/gentle for them.
installation:
place it in: ...\Morrowind\Data Files\

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a common annoyance for vanilla body users—ugly first-person hands.
- No body mod dependencies, so it's a simple drop-in for purists.
- Decent community traction (116 endorsements) for a niche fix.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in March 2023—may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim patches.
- Only affects first-person hands; third-person hands remain unchanged.
For Skyrim players who stick with vanilla bodies but can't stand the default first-person hand models. If you're using a body mod like CBBE or UNP, this mod isn't for you. Skip if you want more comprehensive visual overhauls—this is a targeted fix.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only affects first-person hands, make sure you're not using a body mod that already replaces them—otherwise you might see conflicts.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check that the mod is compatible with your game version; the 2023 update may not cover the latest patches.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to easily enable/disable this mod if you need to troubleshoot.
