📋 About This Mod
LE Version | ENB Light Version
Originally a Mod by renzozuken1, seen HERE, was abandoned only after having the mod up for about 3 WEEKS in October of 2015. As Fallout 4 landed, the author scrapped the project and hid it. I actually LOVED the original release, and took pictures for the mod, only for it to just be canned. This has been a WIP of mine for five goshdarn years. I'm glad I'm able to finally (re?-)release it.
Each color is a standalone spell, which can be found as spell tomes above the Markarth Stables in a Inconspicuous Knapsack. There is also a large set of standalone equipable weapons you can use but for now they are only accessible via console or use of AddItemMenu.
The Weapon Types are:
-
[]Bow + Quivers[/]

Faecharm (Pink)
Frostfire (Cyan)
Goldfallen (Yellow)
Lustthrall (Magenta)

A:
Colorful Bound Weapons SE adds 6 new color variants for bound weapons, including bow, arrows, axe, and sword, with DSR meshes included. This is a revival of renzozuken1's 2015 mod, revamped and polished by Cyborgarmgun. It's a cosmetic enhancement for Skyrim Special Edition players who want more visual variety in their conjured arsenal.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 472 endorsements and over 17k downloads.
- Adds meaningful visual variety to bound weapons without changing gameplay balance.
- Includes DSR meshes, so it plays nice with dual-wielding setups.
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers four weapon types—no daggers, greatswords, or warhammers.
- Color options are fixed at 6, so you can't customize your own palette.
- Potential conflicts with other bound weapon retextures or overhaul mods.
For Skyrim players who love conjuration builds and want their bound weapons to stand out with a splash of color. If you're tired of the default ethereal look and want to match your gear to your outfit or mood, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for new bound weapon types or gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use Dual Sheath Redux, make sure to run the DSR patch after installing to get the meshes working properly.
- Since this is a texture/mesh replacer, load it after other bound weapon mods to ensure the colors apply.
- Check the in-game MCM or console for any color options if the mod includes them, but the description doesn't mention any—so it's likely just a straight replacer.
