📋 About This Mod
Real Rabbits HD by fadingsignal includes a unique, high poly mesh with fur shell, outstanding textures, and a script to randomly apply one of six different color patterns to each rabbit. With Spell Perk Item Distributor (SPID), the script can be run at game start for every rabbit without conflicting any mod. Using SPID, there are no patches needed for SkyTEST, Seasonal Wildlife, Savage Skyrim, or any other mod affecting bunny populations and behaviors. Let the rabbits wear glasses!
Real Rabbits HD
Real Rabbits HD adds new high-resolution textures and higher-poly mesh with fuzzy fur shells, while keeping close to the vanilla colors and art style. It also adds 5 extra colors, with an extremely light-weight "skin randomizer" so all the rabbits in your game will look different.
SPID Edition
The ESP drops out edits to the hare race and replaces them with a SPID distribution text file to accomplish the same thing - give a spell script to every rabbit in the freaking world.
Installation
Spell Perk Item Distributor is required. SPID distributes at game start. If you do not have SPID or you install this on an existing game, the script will never run and every rabbit will look furry and impressive but exactly the same.
Static Mesh Improvement Mod Improvement Mod (SMIMIM) includes matching meshes for hanging rabbits.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 1,616 endorsements and 811k downloads
- SPID-based distribution means it works with any mod setup without conflict patches
- Visual upgrade makes rabbits look more realistic and varied
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in September 2022 — may not be tested with the latest Skyrim version
- Requires SPID (Spell Perk Item Distributor) as a dependency, which adds an extra mod to manage
- Purely cosmetic — no gameplay changes, so if you want functional rabbit overhauls, this isn't it
For Skyrim players who want more realistic and varied wildlife without compatibility headaches. If you're a modder who loves visual overhauls and already use SPID, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or don't want to install SPID.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure SPID is installed and updated to the latest version, as this mod relies on it to distribute the new rabbit appearances.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install both mods and manage load order easily.
- If you're using other creature overhauls, SPID's distribution system should handle conflicts, but check the mod page for any known incompatibilities.
