📋 About This Mod
This is a very simple SKSE plugin implementation similar to "First Person Camera Height Fix" or similar mods.
There is, what I would consider a bug, in the vanilla game where your first person scale does not change to match your third person scale.
This can result in a pretty jarring mismatch between how tall/short you should be in first person, and how tall/short you are.
First Person Height Fix SKSE will ensure that your first person scale matches third person scale so that you will be the correct height.
Supports Skyrim Special Edition versions: 1. 6. 1170 (also known as AE) and 1. 5. 97 (Also known as SE)
This is not compatible with mods that make the same fix, such as the aforementioned First Person Camera Height Fix
Improved Camera is also another SKSE plugin that makes a similar fix. If you use that mod for its other features, then you do not need this one.
Should be compatible with any mods that add races, change scales of races, skeleton replacers, etc, etc
Other mods:
Im not sure if there are any other mods that have issues with this. I don't use any high heels mods or go to bed, so if you have problems with those mods feel free to let me know and I will investigate.
Skyrim VR:
I do not have VR so I dont know if it would even work on there, but I would imagine you don't need it with VRIK (if you are on VR you should be using VRIK)

Threepkiller for First Person Camera Height Fix and ImpOfThePerverseMods. They are how I knew what the actual problem was. This would not have been so easy for me to track down without their prior work.
