📋 About This Mod
Added cloth physics to the skirt and cloak of the armor.
Only some meshes files.
Chakra SSE made the weight change files for the armor, but he did not enable the weight slider in the armor addon of the esp file.
I'm not sure why, but if he changes the esp file, this physical patch also supports body shape changes.
Require HDT-SMP (Skinned Mesh Physics) OR FSMP - Faster HDT-SMP.
Also require original mod.
Then use this patch to cover it.
All credit to ChakraSSE.
Please don't forget to give Chakra SSE endorsed.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- 4,111 endorsements—players clearly love this patch.
- Over 568k downloads, so it's battle-tested across many setups.
- Last updated November 2023, so it's still recent for Skyrim builds.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires HDT-SMP and the original Yaldabaoth Armor, so more setup than a standalone armor.
- Cloth physics can hurt FPS on lower-end systems, especially in combat.
- Potential conflicts with other physics mods or body replacers if load order isn't careful.
For Skyrim players who already use Yaldabaoth Armor and want its cloth to move with HDT-SMP physics. For modders comfortable installing physics frameworks and tweaking load order. Skip if you don't use that armor or prefer zero-dependency cosmetic mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install HDT-SMP and the original Yaldabaoth Armor first, then add this patch and let it overwrite if prompted.
- Use a mod manager like MO2 or Vortex to keep physics mods and patches organized.
- Test the armor in-game after installing; if cloth doesn't move, check that HDT-SMP is active and loading after the armor.
