✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community approval with 8,001 endorsements and nearly 150k downloads.
- Gives you two size options (50% or 30%) so you can pick what feels right.
- Lightweight and does exactly what it says—no bloat, just smaller ice spells.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects two spells—if you wanted other ice magic resized, this isn't it.
- Last updated in 2013, so it's ancient by Skyrim standards—might have issues with newer setups.
- No screenshots or detailed install notes in the description, so you're flying blind until you try it.
For Skyrim mages who think the default Ice Spike and Ice Spear look oversized and want a more subtle projectile. Also for players who enjoy fine-tuning visual details without changing gameplay. Skip if you're looking for new spells or gameplay overhauls—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only changes visuals, it's safe to install mid-playthrough—just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager.
- If you're using a mod manager, preview the two versions in-game to see which size you prefer before committing.
- Check if your other magic mods alter Ice Spike or Ice Spear meshes—if so, load order might matter to avoid conflicts.
