📋 About This Mod

One of the newer ragdoll mods released, Enhanced Ragdoll Accuracy aimed to make humanoid (as well as some creature) corpse physics much more believable and immersive through changes in weights and joints. It didn't garner much friction in the Legendary Edition, but when I luckily stumbled upon it, I immediately gave it a permanent place in my load order. If you believe I'm overhyping it, give it a download and share your thoughts.

This mod affects human and optionally Draugr, Falmer, Hagraven, and Giant ragdolls. No more will be added, because I am not the original developer of the mod. This is currently a port of his latest version, 0. 9. 6, released back in 2018. It's safe to say that updates from this point are unlikely. Here's a rundown with some GIFs of what you might expect to see with the addons.

BHUNP has been reported to have some conflict which causes body stretching, so users of that mod should be aware of this.

So far on my end, it works great with XP32 Skeleton. It of course is not required for this mod, a vanilla version is available

Less back bending, sliding, and looser joints applies to the following creatures:

The choice of ragdoll mods is quite sparse for this Skyrim, so that's the inspiration I had to port it over. It flew under the radar for so many people, so I hope this helps. Also, RogueGamer is a game-physics enthusiast, so they probably know what they're doing.

Installation:

- Please use a mod manager, as there is an installer that comes with this mod

Uninstallation:

- Safe to uninstall at anytime, to be safe you can travel inside an interior cell without corpses and disable it from there

And for those who I know will ask in the future, I do not plan to include any patches for Loverslab mods such as SOS or Nioverride Poses, as I never use them in my playthroughs. I like to stick to the intended feel o
