Amaterasu - The Great Spirit SSE is a conversion of an Oldrim companion mod, adding a wolf god follower to Skyrim Special Edition. It has 294 endorsements and 13,835 downloads, but development is on hold and it has several known bugs, including a missing loading screen model that can cause CTDs.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid community backing with 294 endorsements and over 13k downloads.

  • Active translation support shows community investment.

⚠️ Cons

  • Known CTD risk from missing loading screen model—can crash your game.
  • Amaterasu gets stuck in tight spaces, which is annoying in dungeons.
  • Development is on hold, so bugs and missing features may never be fixed.
🎯 Is This For You?

📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Install manually by extracting the archive into your Data folder, as NMM may fail.
  • Save before summoning Amaterasu in tight areas to avoid getting her stuck.
  • If the model doesn't appear, check your load order and ensure no other mods override her assets.
