Nicos Craftable Arrows v1. 5 _____________________________

Reason for this mod: _____________________

Honestly...... Just wanted some good looking arrows that I could craft in the game.

Thought some of you might like them too. :)

What this mod does: ____________________

This mod adds 4 new types of arrows to the game.

Withervines for the characters that like black

Lightsplinters for arrows in Maple

Quickthornes for arrows in rosewood

Dreadweave are dark with hawk feather flights, and steel tips

Where are they? ________________

They can only be had by crafting at any forge with only the steel smithing perk required.

Find them under the MISC section of crafting

Each require slightly different components and are made 100 at a time.

All require nirnroot as the flights are made of it, and silver as the aroow heads are made of that.

How strong are they? _____________________

Same as Daedric.

Installation instructions: ___________________________

Unpack the 7zip file to a known location (like desktop)

Open the folder, and find the folder labeled 'Data'

Copy/ paste or drag, and drop it into your Skyrim folder (normally located at C:SteamsteamappscommonSkyrim).

When propmpted by windows to overwrite files with the same name answer, "Yes to All"

Start Skyrim, and in the Data directory at the beginning place a check mark next to the .esp with the mod's name.

Play, and enjoy :)

Uninstallation instructions: _____________________________

Disable, and delete the .esp file.

Run a windows Explorer search for 'Nicos Arrows'.

Delete the 2 folders with that name.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you use a mod manager, install it manually to avoid conflicts with other arrow mods.
