📋 About This Mod
Distributes 142 unique weapons from Immersive Weapon Integration to the named npcs that get it in the IWI plugin. this makes npcs get the weapons without a need for a patch and without conflicts. this mod will not cause dark faces or require a patch to work. its completely plug and play.
Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID) is a revolutionary mod that are able to give npcs perks, spells and items, without using a plugin or make any changes on npcs except for what it is set to do. this allows visual npc mods and things distributed with spid to work with each other without any need for a patch, and without causing dark faces.
make sure the immersive weapon Integration esp is above your npc overhauls in your loadorder, or this mod wont do anything and you will get dark faces.
this mod does not modify the immersive weapon integration mod in any way or do anything with leveled list. so if you use more mods that adds/modify leveled list then you would need to combine them with either mator smash or wrye bash
Compatibility and Limitations:
-
[]should be compatible with all npcs overhauls as long as they dont change the name of the affected npcs.
[
]some npcs might not have the weapon equipped when you first encounter them, but will equip it in combat.[]compatible with existing saves
[]npcs will not use a modded weapon if it deals less dmg than their vanilla weapon (i have tried to make npcs use modded weapon by giving them a weapon that deals deals a bit more dmg, if the weapon they got from the mod did less dmg than their vanilla weapon)
installation: just download with manager and enable the mod in your mod manager.
dont hesitate to report bugs, give feedback or ask questions. you dont need to be overly polite if you dont want to.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Plug-and-play setup with no patch headaches—just install and go
- Community-trusted with 398 endorsements and over 8k downloads
- Works with existing saves, so you can add it mid-playthrough without restarting
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Immersive Weapon Integration as a base mod, so you need that installed first
- Load order matters—if the IWI esp isn't above NPC overhauls, the mod won't work and you'll get dark faces
- Some NPCs might not equip the weapon until combat starts, which can be jarring if you expect immediate visuals
For Skyrim players who use Immersive Weapon Integration and want those weapons to appear on NPCs without manual patching. Perfect for modders who value compatibility and simplicity. Skip if you don't use IWI or prefer full control over NPC inventories.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Ensure the Immersive Weapon Integration esp is placed above any NPC overhaul mods in your load order, or the distribution won't trigger and you'll get dark faces.
- If you use other mods that modify leveled lists, run Mator Smash or Wrye Bash to combine them, since this mod doesn't touch leveled lists.
- Test on a fresh save or a save before entering a cell to see the weapons appear; NPCs may equip them only during combat.
