📋 About This Mod
This is my second mod.
Garb:
Uses body slot 32 and cape slot 46.
This mod replaces Hammerfell Garb by replacing the mesh files so this is expected to be incompatible with mods that replace them. Although, it should be compatible with re-texture mods that do not touch mesh files.
BodySlide files are included. Build using BodySlide to your preferred body shape.
Note:
When building with BodySlide Studio, please use AltairRedguardHDTCape and AltairRedguardHDTCapeOnly item from Outfit/Body drop-down in BodySlide Studio.
Cape:
Uses cape slot 46.
It also includes cape as separate wearable. So you can where it with any other armor. Has some minor clipping issues as it is for testing purposes only.
Version 0. 4 now includes an OutfitStudio project for the cap. This replaces old cape with the cape from main project and there is collision body in it.
As of yet, no way to obtain through normal means. So you can use console command like;
help "redguard cape" 4 Ref Id: xx000803
help "hammerfell garb cape" 4 Ref Id: xx000801
Issues:
- Cape clips through the body sometimes, can't be 100% fixed!
Tools Used (Credits to them!):
SSEEdit or xEdit (I'm using an older version that I downloaded on 21 Dec 2016)
NifSkope (github) (latest version)
BodySlide and Outfit Studio by Ousnius and Caliente (5. 0. 5)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (656k+) shows tons of players use this
- Male version is plug-and-play — no extra setup needed
- Adds immersive cloth physics to an otherwise static cape
⚠️ Cons
- Female version needs CBBE and BodySlide, so it's not for vanilla body users
- Last updated in 2020 — might not work with the latest Skyrim patches or HDT-SMP versions
- Requires HDT-SMP framework, which can be finicky to install for beginners
For Skyrim players who use HDT-SMP and want more realistic cape movement on the Hammerfell Garb outfit. If you're on the male version, it's a simple drop-in; if you're female, you'll need to be comfortable with BodySlide. Skip if you don't use HDT-SMP or prefer static outfits.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure HDT-SMP is installed and working before adding this mod — test with a known HDT outfit first.
- For the female version, run BodySlide to build the outfit with your preferred body preset.
- If the cape doesn't move in-game, check that you're using the correct skeleton (XPMSE) and that HDT-SMP is enabled in your mod manager.
