📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
When you first started the game and killed the dragon near Whiterun, you probably had a very low carry weight limit although you really wanted to take the dragon scales and bones from this dragon, because dragon armor and weapons are really good in this game, but when you saw how much they weigh, you just gave up? (Or edited its limit via the console) well this helps you and simply makes dragon bones and scales weightless. I know this is really simple, and you could just do it by the Creation Kit, but, i made it anyways.
COMPATIBILITY
This mod is compatible with any mods that change the textures/ change the meshes of dragon bones and scales.
REQUIREMENTS
This mod needs Skyrim 1. 932 or higher (Sorry but i never tested it on other versions of the game).
Also I want to mention, that you have full permission to edit/publish it however, whenever and wherever you want. (Not much to edit though :P )
For anyone here that doesn't want to download this change (which is completely fine), here is how you change your character's carry weight limit:
Step 1: Open the console by clicking on this button: ~ which is to the left of 1/! buttons.
Step 2: Inside the console, type this command: player.forceav carrryweight (the limit you want it to be :P-only numbers)
Notes: It can be player.setav as well, but i recommend using forceav so it force it both the change and the saving of the new value.
I've added two optional files: a. Optional-only x2 value= This file set dragon bones and scales's weight to default, though it doubles their value. For example:
Default dragon bone value: 500 gold New dragon bone value: 1000 gold
b. Optional- weightless dragon bones and scales plus x2 value= This file makes dragon bones and scales weightless, but also doubles their value. For example:
Default dragon bone value: 500 gold New dragon bone value: 1000 gold
EXTRA NOTES
a. Don't activate/download two files or they will mess up each other (I think they will anyways).
b. By the way, the value of dragon scales: 600 gold, is not a math mistake, I just thought like dragon scales deserve this value. If you want me to edit and make their (dragon scales) really doubled, leave a comment about it.
A simple quality-of-life mod that removes the weight from dragon scales and bones, with an optional file that doubles their value. Ideal for Skyrim players who hoard dragon loot and want to carry more without sacrificing profit.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 637 endorsements and over 17k downloads — clearly a go-to for weight management.
- Two-in-one: removes weight and offers a value boost for those who want extra gold.
- Lightweight and straightforward — no scripts or complex mechanics, just a simple tweak.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects dragon scales and bones — other loot remains heavy, so you'll still need to manage your inventory.
- Last updated in 2015 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition without patches.
- No detailed instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author, so you're on your own if issues arise.
For Skyrim players who hate being over-encumbered after dragon fights and want to haul every scale and bone to town. Also great for hoarders who want to sell dragon loot for extra gold with the optional value boost. Skip if you're on a modded setup that already alters dragon loot weights or if you prefer more comprehensive inventory overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're playing Skyrim Special Edition, check if the mod has a compatible version or use a mod manager to convert it — the 2015 date suggests it was made for the original Skyrim.
- Use the optional doubled values file only if you want a gold boost; otherwise, stick with the main file to keep the game balanced.
- Since it's a simple weight change, you can safely install it mid-playthrough, but always make a manual save before adding any mod.
