📋 About This Mod
It's DServant's Combat Gameplay Overhaul, without the combat stuff, pretty much. That's about it. No more grip switch, no more dodge, no more free moving power attacks. Just jump attacks, leaning, and camera noise, all functional in both first and third person.
Little to no support will be given for this, as it was made purely out of educated guesses and intuition, so I don't really know how everything works.
This does not require CGO, and is completely standalone from CGO. It does however require nemesis to be run. Just select Combat Gameplay Overhaul in Nemesis, then Update+Run.
If you don't want the leaning stuff or the breathing camera stuff in first person, just set the MCM values to 0. 00X. Doing that will turn this into a simple, functional jump attack enabler lol.
Fair warning, this might be buggy as hell. But equally so, it might be perfectly stable and fine to use long term. Just post any issues you have in the bugs tab so people can see them, and I (or others) can find a way to fix them.
Credit to DServant for CGO obviously.
This mod IS compatible with SkySA. No special instructions, just select Combat Gameplay Overhaul and SkySA in Nemesis and Update+Run Nemesis! At long last, jump attacks in SkySA!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (262,949) shows it's a go-to for many players
- Lightweight alternative to full CGO—gets the feel without the overhaul
- MCM retained means you can tweak settings in-game
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021—may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions
- Requires the original CGO as a dependency, so you still need to install that
- No detailed documentation on exact settings or compatibility provided
For Skyrim players who love CGO's leaning and jump attacks but find the full combat overhaul too much. Also for modders who want those animations without other changes. Skip if you want the complete CGO experience or if you're on a newer Skyrim version without compatibility patches.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install the original CGO first, then overwrite with this mod to strip it down.
- Use a mod manager like MO2 or Vortex to handle file overwrites properly.
- Check the mod's posts for any compatibility patches if you're on Skyrim AE.
