📋 About This Mod
An esl flagged mod that offers two smaller variants of Mihail's sewer rats: a 75 percent version and a 50 percent version. A Skypatcher version is also available.
This ESL-flagged mod provides two smaller variants of Mihail's sewer rats—75% and 50% of original size—plus a Skypatcher version for dynamic scaling. Ideal for Skyrim players who find the default rats too large and want a more realistic or less obtrusive creature size.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple, focused tweak that fixes a common nitpick—rats are just too big.
- ESL flag means it won't eat your load order slots.
- Skypatcher support gives flexibility for those who use it.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Mihail's Sewer Rats as a base, so you're adding two mods for a size change.
- Only affects sewer rats—if you wanted smaller rats elsewhere, this won't help.
- Skypatcher version adds a dependency for users who don't already use Skypatcher.
For Skyrim players who use Mihail's creature mods and think the sewer rats are comically oversized. If you're a modder looking to fine-tune creature scale without editing records manually, this is a quick fix. Skip if you don't use Mihail's rats or want broader creature resizing.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using the Skypatcher version, make sure Skypatcher is installed and properly configured before adding this mod.
- Load this mod after Mihail's Sewer Rats in your mod manager to ensure the size override applies.
- Since it's ESL-flagged, you can safely add it to an existing save without worrying about plugin limit issues.
