📋 About This Mod
-- for Japanese people ---
日本語での説明はページ下部にあります。
----------------------------------------
This mod adds an animation for wear/taking off Serana's hood.
It is based on ”Serana's Hood Fix” mod, that improves Serana's hood behavior.
There are two versions of ”Serana's Hood Fix”: Simple (no hood at all) and Realistic (wear hood).
This mod adds functionality to the Realistic version.
【Required Mods】
Used to apply animation. Unconfirmed, but probably can be substituted with FNIS.
Serana will wear the hood if and only if she is outside during the day (5am to 7pm, same as Weakness to Sunlight), has no other headgear equipped, and is still a vampire.
Play the animation when Serana wear/takes off her hood.

【Q&A】
Q Do I need the "Serana's Hood Fix" mod?
A No, you don't need it. This mod works on its own. (standalone mod)
If you would like, I would be glad if you could endorse it to the original mod.
Q Is there compatibility with mods that change the hood graphics?
A Yes, it is. For example, a Hood Plus mod like "Hood Plus Hair for Seranaholics".
This mod is responsible for controlling the scripting of when the hood is put on. It does not affect the graphics.
Please note that we have changed the "DLC1_NPCMentalModelScript" script and the "DLC1NPCMentalModel" quest, so please be careful of conflicts.
Q What beautification mod is Serana in the screenshot using?
A This is my custom serana. I am not thinking of publishing the beautification mod.
This is because it is difficult to release it due to the rights, because it is appropriated from many other mods.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,570 endorsements and over 162k downloads.
- Fills a real immersion gap—no more instant hood pop-on/off.
- Lightweight and focused; does one thing and does it well.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the original Serana's Hood Fix mod as a base, so you need both installed.
- Only affects Serana's hood—if you wanted animations for other hoods, this isn't it.
- Last updated in 2022, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or other mods that alter Serana.
For Skyrim players who use Serana as a follower and want her hood to feel more natural. If you're into immersion and hate the instant hood toggle, this is a must-have. Skip if you don't care about Serana or prefer gameplay over cosmetic animations.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original Serana's Hood Fix installed first, or this mod won't work.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
- Check your load order to ensure this mod loads after the base fix to avoid conflicts.
