📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 864 endorsements and 79k downloads
  • Tiny mod that fixes a noticeable visual quirk without changing gameplay
  • Simple and lightweight—no heavy scripts or dependencies

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2020—may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or mods that alter projectiles
  • Only affects thrown weapons, so if you rarely use them, you won't see much benefit
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who use thrown weapons and care about visual polish. If you're a completionist who wants every detail to look right, this is a must-have. Skip if you never throw weapons or prefer gameplay-altering mods.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this mod through it to keep your load order clean.
  • Since it's a simple mesh/texture replacer, it should work with most setups, but test it with your current mod list to ensure no conflicts.
  • If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check if the mod has an SE version or if you need to convert it—oldrim mods sometimes need a quick port.
