📋 About This Mod
This might only be an issue for SkyrimVR, but using USSEP, with compatibility patch for VR still causes CTD.
This is because USSEP refers to a broken Mesh and a blank animation for Bound Dagger.
Must be installed after USSEP and After "Weapon Speed Fix VR". Weapon Speed Fix VR also solves this problem, but it overwrites tons of corrected weapon classifications and stats that USSEP fixes.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved fix with 940 endorsements — clearly works for most.
- Over 331k downloads means it's a go-to solution for this crash.
- Simple, focused patch — no bloat, just fixes the problem.
⚠️ Cons
- Only addresses Bound Dagger CTD — if you don't use that spell, this mod does nothing for you.
- May not work with mods that alter Bound Dagger or conjuration spells — compatibility untested.
For Skyrim players who've hit the Bound Dagger crash and want a quick, proven fix. Also for modders who want a stable base for conjuration builds. Skip if you never cast Bound Dagger or if you're looking for broader bug fixes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install — load order rarely matters for simple fixes like this.
- Make sure you have the latest Skyrim patch installed; the mod was updated in 2024, so it should work with current versions.
- If the crash persists, check if another mod overhauls Bound Dagger — that could conflict with this fix.
