Immersive Gathering
Completely redefines how you gather resources in Skyrim.
Forget static animations and fake progress bars — Immersive Gathering turns woodcutting and mining into real, physical actions.
Grab your axe or pickaxe, strike the log or ore vein yourself, and watch the resources actually break apart and drop on the ground.Features
-
[]Fully physical woodcutting – Equip a woodcutter’s axe, activate a chopping block, and real wooden logs appear. Strike them with your axe to split them in half and collect the wood directly from the ground.
[
]Interactive mining – Activate an ore vein, then mine it manually with your pickaxe. Each hit breaks off real ore chunks that you can pick up.[]Dynamic gem drops – Precious veins can also release gems as physical items.
[]No animations, no fake timers – The entire system is manual, visual, and reactive.
[]VR-compatible – Perfectly functional and satisfying in VR — you literally swing your tools to gather.
[]Full compatibility – Works with all vanilla and mod-added ore veins and wood blocks, no patches or form lists needed.
- Lightweight – Entire mod runs on clean scripts with minimal footprint (only 11 KB).
It should be something you actually do — and now it is.
