📋 About This Mod

You must have already noticed this bug when you climbed the steps to High Hrothgar.

When you go up the steps sometimes you stay stuck for a tiny second (as if the game was freezing), and worse, sometimes you get stuck running in place... It's quite annoying given the number of steps to climb.

So this little FYX fixes that.

  • []Reworked step collisions which fixes this annoying bug. (the player to get stuck when climbing the steps)

    []No ESP

  • Since there's no ESP, just extract the files into your Skyrim Data folder—no mod manager needed, but using one like Vortex or MO2 keeps things tidy.
  • If you use other mods that modify High Hrothgar's steps, load this mod after them to ensure the collision fix takes priority.
  • This mod is compatible with the Special Edition and Anniversary Edition, but if you're on the old Legendary Edition, double-check the file structure.
