📋 About This Mod
Sets the weight value to zero for all books, ore, ingots, pelts alchemy ingredients, as well as dragon bones and scales, claw keys, firewood, pick axe, woodcutter axe, dwemer smeltables, and food. Each group is a separate .esp file so you can choose which items you want changed. This will change the weight of items you already have in your inventory as well as any items looted afterward. Removing the mod will restore the original weights. Warning: Not compatible with other mods that affect the same items, such as the sorting mod. Warning: Will change affected items\' names to English. Note: QuestItems.esp was removed. It turns out that even though quest items have a listed weight it does not actually add to the player\'s inventory weight.
Weightless Items removes weight from potions, poisons, ore, ingots, pelts, books, alchemy ingredients, dragon parts, claw keys, firewood, pick axe, woodcutter axe, dwemer smeltables, and food. A classic Skyrim quality-of-life mod with 8,502 endorsements and 177,241 downloads, last updated in 2012.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Massive community trust: 8,502 endorsements and 177k downloads prove this mod is a staple for many playthroughs.
- Covers all the annoying loot categories—potions, ore, books, dragon parts—so you can hoard without the encumbrance penalty.
- Simple, focused design: does exactly what it says, no bloat or extra features to fiddle with.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2012—over a decade old, so compatibility with current Skyrim versions or DLCs is uncertain.
- Author mentioned adding more groups later, but that never happened; the mod is effectively abandoned.
- No documentation on how it works under the hood, so you're trusting the mod blindly—no source or install notes.
For Skyrim players who hate inventory management and want to haul everything without worrying about weight. Perfect for hoarders and loot goblins who prioritize convenience over realism. Skip if you want a survival-style experience where weight matters.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod is from 2012, make sure you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to handle any potential conflicts with other mods.
- If you're playing Skyrim Special Edition, you may need to convert the mod or find a similar updated alternative, as this was made for the original Skyrim.
- Test the mod early in your playthrough to confirm it works with your load order, especially if you have other inventory or weight mods.
