📋 About This Mod
All I did was remove the particle effect off of the sword when it is in the sheath. This way it looks more like the sword itself. It doesn\'t activated untill you draw your sword. I just got tired of having a particle effect comming off my sword when I was walking/running around. I don\'t want it to stand out untill I pull it out. Hope someone else finds this usefull. ALL CREDITS GO TO JOJJO FOR HIS INCREDIBLE WORK! and to me for just removing the particle effects off of the sword for this purpose. INSTALLATION: Just throw the 2 .nif files/meshes into the correct folders, over write the files, and then your all set. ALSO: The colors of my armor and sword are not affecting this mod. The original colors and texture are all there. These screenshots are of my own. Do not worry about the colors, affecting your mod. It just uses all the original colors created by JOJJO.
A compact cosmetic mod for Oblivion that removes the particle effect from the Frostmourne sword while sheathed, so it only activates when drawn. With 49 endorsements and last updated in 2008, it's a niche tweak for fans of the iconic weapon.

For Oblivion players who use the Frostmourne weapon mod and find the sheathed particle effect distracting. Skip if you want any gameplay changes—this is purely visual and very narrow in scope.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original Frostmourne weapon mod installed, as this only modifies its sheathed effect.
- If you use a mod manager, install this as a separate mod and place it after the main weapon mod in your load order.
- Test by sheathing and drawing the sword in-game to confirm the effect is removed only when sheathed.
