📋 About This Mod
RMB SkyPatched - adapts "Cloaks of Skyrim" to use SkyPatcher, hooking into my RMB SPIDifed - Core Framework for maximum compatibility in NPC distribution.
It doesn't require SPID itself, but does require my framework due to the shared ESP/resources, which allows for indirect integration into SPID patches built on it.
• No need for compatibility patches for most mods - such as: AI Overhaul, Immersive Jewelry, Survival Mode, and more!
• Stripped files of edits to Leveled Lists, Outfits and NPCs
• Various SkyPatcher configs with tweaks and fixes - more information under the tweaking section
• Compacted FormIDs and Flagged Cloaks and Cloaks - Dawnguard.esp as ESL files, to avoid using LO spots
• Combined all three plugins into one, with a custom name to prevent old patches from being used
• Migrated all relevant changes to SkyPatcher operations
• USSEP Patch is no longer needed - a dummy file "Cloaks - USSEP Patch.esp" is included
• Fully compatible with HDT-SMP (just don't use their provided ESP files), retextures and remeshes
• Injects Cloaks into a Leveled List Framework, which itself is injected into various outfits, Leveled Lists and even distributed via SPID
• Compatible with Winter is Coming - Cloaks if you use RMB SPCH - Winter is Coming
• Install Cloaks of Skyrim
• Remove or hide the Cloaks.esp, Cloaks - Dawnguard.esp, and Cloaks - USSEP.esp
• Install SkyPatcher, RMB SPID - Core, and (recommended) Spell Perk Item Distributor. See requirements for links and details
• Install HDT-SMP or similar if desired. Remove or hide Cloaks_SMP_Patch.esp
• Install cloak texture replacers
• Install RMB SPCH - Cloaks of Skyrim
Chance for Cloaks (default: 35% chance for no cloak)
Location: Core\SKSE\Plugins\SkyPatcher\leveledList\Chances\CloakChances.ini
By default there is a 35% chance of no cloak being assigned. You can adjust the value to 0, for example, to force cloaks to always be distributed.
RMB SPCH - Cloaks of Skyrim adapts the popular Cloaks of Skyrim mod to use SkyPatcher and optionally SPID, ensuring seamless, conflict-free integration. This is a compatibility-focused patch for modders and players who want to avoid conflicts.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 510 endorsements and over 54k downloads
- Solves real compatibility headaches by leveraging SkyPatcher and SPID
- Recently updated (May 2026), so it's kept current with the modding scene
⚠️ Cons
- Requires SkyPatcher and possibly SPID, adding setup complexity
- Not a standalone mod—you need the original Cloaks of Skyrim to use it
- Compatibility with other mods that alter cloaks or use similar frameworks could still be a risk
For Skyrim modders who already run Cloaks of Skyrim and want a cleaner, conflict-free setup. If you're not using Cloaks of Skyrim or don't care about patch-level integration, this isn't for you.
