DUAL CAST FIX
Requirements
Latest version of SKSE64
Visual C++ Redistributables 2022
Address Library for SKSE Plugins
Description
Casting another spell (via Cast/RemoteCast/AddSpell script functions or perk abilities) while dual casting, will break dual casting effects and perks (eg. Impact) that depend on it. This can be replicated on a vanilla load order + Survival Mode or if you have mods such as Strange Runes which calls AddSpell() while casting hand spells.This plugin fixes that by preventing scripted/instant spells (which cannot be dual casted anyway) from disabling dual-casts.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Essential fix for any mage build—dual casting finally works as intended.
- Huge community trust: 13k endorsements and 3.5M downloads speak for themselves.
- Lightweight SKSE plugin—no conflicts, no bloat, just a clean fix.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in May 2023—might not be tested with the latest Skyrim patches.
- Requires SKSE, so you're locked into the SKSE ecosystem.
- No detailed documentation or troubleshooting guide provided by the author.
For Skyrim players who use dual-cast spells and want the game to behave correctly. Essential for mage builds and anyone who's noticed dual casting feels off. Skip if you never use magic or play a pure warrior/stealth character.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the correct SKSE version for your Skyrim build (SE/AE) before installing.
- Place the plugin in your Data folder or use a mod manager—either works, but a mod manager makes removal easier.
- If you use other magic overhauls, test dual casting early to ensure compatibility.
