Capes with HDT Physics
Dont let this happen to you
This mod is very much a W. I. P. and as such will be continuously updated as we finish.
Hot files in the first 2 days WOW! You guys are the best Thank you all so much for the support and votes!!!!!!!Version 1. 0
Version 1. 15
Created a female version of the cape. To fix the floating cape issues users were having. Fitted to CBBE bodies if that makes any difference at all.
Moddified CapeHDT.xml to have ground collisions. (For certain animations that require the character to lower in position causing the cape to collide with the ground.)
Made new female only textures for the cape Crane print and Floral print, and 3 more for all capes a crazy design, switched the bright orange with a red version and also switched the terrible black retexture with a new dark grey Dohvakiin symbol cape.
Fallbob made a 4K retexture that we wanted everyone to have thanks for making this for us. To Install the 4K version just download manually Use 7zip or WinRar to extract the files. Move the Data folder to your Skyrim folder and replace those meshes and add the new texture.
You can find the Skyrim folder here: Programfiles(x86)\Steam&

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 9,014 endorsements and nearly 200k downloads.
- HDT physics makes capes flow naturally, a big upgrade over static capes.
- 10 colors give plenty of variety for fashion-minded players.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — may not work with the latest Skyrim versions or HDT setups.
- Requires HDT physics extension, which can be finicky to install and configure.
- No mention of compatibility with other cloak mods or armor replacers.
For Skyrim players who want immersive, physics-based capes without heavy gameplay changes. Great for roleplayers and screenshot enthusiasts. Skip if you're on Skyrim Special Edition or don't want to deal with HDT setup.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have HDT Physics Extensions installed and working before adding this mod, or the capes will be static.
