If you wish to donate to me I ask of you not to. All I need is the moral support, thank you :)
Just want to thank you guys again for 1000 endorsements!!!!!10/06/14(My Birthday :D) Thank you Winters323 for the 1000th endorsement!! Thanks so much everyone!
Also on Steam Workshop!
SeeEnchantments is a project I just started after work. I was playing around with the Magic effects, EffectShaders and Object Art and 3 coffees later SeeEnchs was born!
If you don't know already SeeEnchs creates visible enchantments that replace the vanilla ones. Which I wasn't a big fan of.
Vanilla Enchs just glow...
My Enchs have animations and particles. See screenshots
Compatibility:
-This enchantment mod is not compatible with others that replace the weapon Enchs, however egocarib has made a great mod that lets you mix and match enchantments from other mods together definitely check it out!
Enchanted Arsenal
-Is compatible with Dragonborn and Dawnguard.
-There is a small bug however that may happen. The sound of effect might loop when sheathed. This is the game bug not from my mod. The only way to fix it is load to an event before the looping.
Working on:
Sizes (custom mesh for every weapon type)
Pre enchanted weaps with two enchs. (fire-frost, fire-lightning, lightning-frost, etc)
Better bow effects -really annoying to do
Armour Edition -cannot get to work well
Simply put the "Data" folder in your Skyrim directory
Delete the .esp files
Delete the .bsa files
Hope you enjoy this mod!
and thanks for downloading!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 3,348 endorsements
- High download count (67,788) shows it's popular
- Enhances visual feedback without altering game balance
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014 — may be outdated for current game versions
- Only covers 'many' enchantments, not all — some may remain unchanged
For Skyrim players who want more visual flair on their enchanted gear, making magic effects stand out. If you're a completionist who wants every enchantment to look distinct, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes — this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod is from 2014, check if it's compatible with your Skyrim version (Oldrim vs Special Edition) before installing.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily enable/disable the mod and avoid conflicts.
- If you use other visual overhaul mods, load SeeEnchantments after them to ensure its effects take priority.
