📋 About This Mod
This is meant as a time saver, not a cheat. Player's carry weight will increase when he acquires a follower. Having two, three, or four followers will also increase carry weight for player. How much is determined by MCM menu.
The point is to avoid having to spend time putting loot in the followers inventory, and then taking it out when needed. In the same vein this will help avoid frequent trips to houses to swap gear.
1) No mod scripts used except for mcm menu
2) Carry weigh bonus can be adjusted per added follower, up to four
3) If a follower dies or is dismissed the bonus is lost
4) Available as a esp or esl file
5) For those players who just want direct access to setting carryweight, a separate mcm option is provided
SOT Carry Weight is a gameplay mod that increases the player's carry weight as they gain followers, with the amount adjustable via MCM. It's designed as a time saver rather than a cheat. With 65 endorsements and over 21,000 downloads, it's a niche utility for players who use multiple followers.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple quality-of-life improvement for follower-heavy playthroughs.
- MCM customization lets you fine-tune the bonus to your liking.
- Solid download count (21k+) shows it's been useful to many players.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may not work with the latest game version or other mods.
- Only 65 endorsements, so it's a niche mod with a smaller active user base.
- No detailed documentation on exact values or compatibility, so you'll need to test it yourself.
For players who run with multiple followers and hate being over-encumbered after every loot run. If you're a solo player or don't use followers, this mod does nothing for you. Skip if you want a more immersive carry weight overhaul — this is purely a convenience tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the MCM (Mod Configuration Menu) installed, as the mod relies on it for adjustments.
- After installing, check the MCM settings to set the carry weight increase to your preferred amount.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the installation to avoid manual file placement errors.
