📋 About This Mod
This is a remake of old mod with the same name using OIF instead of editing the mineorescript which makes this mod compatible with other mods that edit the same script. Everytime you mine, the ore will fall on the ground with the exception of leveled list item like gem to avoid missing the item. This may not look better than the original but at least this mod can be considered as an alternative.
Installation:
1. Install the requirement OIF minimum v. 1. 6. 6
2. Install this mod

Ore Falls on The Ground NG - OIF is a small immersion mod for Skyrim that makes ores drop onto the ground when you mine, adding a touch of realism. With 89 endorsements and over 15,000 downloads, it's a niche but appreciated addition for players who want more visual feedback while mining.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective immersion boost—seeing ore tumble out feels way more satisfying than it vanishing into your inventory.
- Decent community traction with 89 endorsements and over 15k downloads, so it's been tried and tested.
- Lightweight and focused—does exactly what it says without bloating your load order.
⚠️ Cons
- Potential compatibility issues with other mining overhauls or mods that alter ore veins—might need a patch.
- Could affect performance if you mine a lot, since each ore drop adds physics objects to the world.
- No recent updates since August 2025, so it might not be actively maintained for future game patches.
For Skyrim players who love immersion and want a little extra realism when mining. If you're a roleplayer or just enjoy seeing the fruits of your labor, this is a neat touch. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place this mod after any mining-related overhauls in your load order to avoid conflicts.
- If you use a mod manager, you can preview the mod's file structure to see exactly what it changes before installing.
- Test mining a few ore veins right after installing to ensure the ores drop correctly and don't clip through the ground.
