📋 About This Mod
Want some Unimmersive but Fun dancing? Try this!
What's this all about?
A collection of Dances converted for Skyrim use.
We refer to them as "Dance Packs", dance plug-ins for Dance Synchronizator by RSV
Read!
Only 1 Dance Pack can be used each game if you're using DS Light
I haven't tried DS 3. 2 yet but it allows you to use more than 1 song each game.
(See Uninstall for notes)
1. Required - IMPORTANT!
Dance Synchronizator (DS Light Masterfile) by RSV
Download: http://casualmods.net/main-file.html
DS Installation: Place files inside the Data folder
How to use: Adds Spells under Alteration (See troubleshooting if they don't appear!)

2. Installation
Make a backup save first as a precaution!
Install using NMM or simply copy the BSA and ESP files inside your Data Folder

The dance is a scripted event!

6. Compatibility
Works with anything (contact me for problems)
No FNIS required
Minor issues:
Simple multiple followers - Might cause animation conflict disabling the dance altogether with followers recruited using this mod
Reverb Mods - Songs with loud beats/bass may cause unwanted feedback
7. Permissions
- You may use my dance packs however you wish
- But if you'll use my hkx files, please credit me or link back
Distribution:
- Please do not upload my files elsewhere
- Do not redistribute the Dance Synchronizator as the original author (RSV) forbids it
8. Troubleshooting
- Song repeats after Dance: Press wait for 5-10 seconds and the song will stop
- Song does not Sync with Dance: The dance and song are separate files and if you have multiple scripts running, there might be a delay between them

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (2,240 endorsements) — this is a proven dance pack.
- Nearly 90,000 downloads show it's been a go-to for years.
- Electronic and Pop options give you variety for different vibes.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014 — likely outdated for the Special Edition or Anniversary Edition.
For Skyrim players who want to add dance animations to their game, especially for screenshots, machinima, or just messing around. If you're into roleplaying or want to spice up tavern scenes, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for modern, up-to-date animations or play on Special Edition without compatibility patches.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod is from 2014, check if you're on Oldrim (Legendary Edition) — it may not work on Special Edition without conversion.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to keep track of the files and avoid overwriting other animation mods.
- Test the dances in a safe area first, like your player home, to see how they look before using them in public.
