📋 About This Mod
While playing Oblivion Remastered, I was getting annoyed at the fact that the enemy's weapon would get dropped and potentially lost somewhere instead of staying on their corpse when they died. So this mod fixes this by always keeping NPC's weapons on their body after their death. The added bonus of this tweak is that it may help to reduce save bloat too due to less dynamic world items being dropped.
I've also implemented a fix to obtain the Shadowrend weapon from your clone's corpse (who is not lootable) during the Symbols of Office quest. Shadowrend will drop onto the ground after defeating your clone like in vanilla, so you can still obtain it with this mod. Only applies to the main file (ESP version).
1. Download the main file.
2. Extract EnemysWeaponStaysOnCorpse.esp to your Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data folder.
3. Add EnemysWeaponStaysOnCorpse.esp to the end of the contents of your Plugins.txt file, which is located in the same folder as above.
This gameplay mod ensures that when an NPC dies, the weapon they were using remains on their corpse rather than being dropped elsewhere. It's a simple quality-of-life improvement for players who want easier loot retrieval and more immersive death scenes. With 2,641 endorsements and 131,976 downloads, it's a popular choice for those seeking this specific tweak.
