  • Works with the base game, no extra requirements needed.

⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to place the files in your Skyrim/Data folder, and if you're using a mod manager, let it handle the installation.
  • Since this mod is from 2012, check if you're playing the original Skyrim (Legendary Edition) – it may not work on Special Edition without conversion.
  • If you're using other animation mods, load order matters – put this one early so other mods can overwrite if needed.
