📋 About This Mod
This will most likely fix any mod that causes the carts and carriages physics/havok to go nuts.
It turns out it was actually pretty simple, just a single value change in NifScope on the carriage model used.
Love the mods guys.
THE BAD: (with touring carriages mod) A creature might run inside the back of the carriage for a moment occasionally. Merely aesthetic.
THE GOOD: Compatibility with possibly many mods (anything that causes carts to flip or act weird). (with touring carriages mod) Decreases chances of bugging out and never reaching destination (tree or rock in the way? This will fix many). Fix has no dependencies. * Replaces no files, and has no scripts, nothing added to your save game, so can be installed/uninstalled without any issues at any time.
INSTALLATION: Just install through your mod manager.
UNINSTALLATION: Just disable the fix in NMM (or delete the model file Data/meshes/furniture/prisonercarriage/scenictourcarriage02.nif).

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved fix with 2,065 endorsements and 47k downloads.
- Targets a notorious bug that ruins the intro for many players.
- Lightweight patch that doesn't overhaul anything else.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2013 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or DLC.
- Only fixes 'most' issues, so some cart glitches may still occur.
For Skyrim players who are tired of the cart physics freakout during the intro or while traveling. If you've ever seen a horse cart launch into the sky, this is for you. Skip if you're on the latest version and haven't encountered the bug, or if you prefer a more comprehensive overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, just download and activate; otherwise, drop the files into your Data folder.
- Make sure to load this mod after any mods that alter the opening sequence to ensure the fix applies.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, this oldrim mod may need conversion — check the comments for guidance.
