📋 About This Mod

SPID for Footprints

Modded Creature Patches

The Problem

SPID for Footprints only distributes footprints for vanilla races. If a mod adds creatures with new races, these creatures don't leave footprints.

This mod does:

  • []Provide footprint support for mod-added variations of already supported creatures.

    []Only use SPID DISTR files. There is no ESP, so it won't take a slot in your load order.

    This mod does NOT:

    • Add new footprint types. Creatures requiring new textures are not covered by this mod.

      Currently patched: Beyond Skyrim - Bruma

      Note: Since I don't have much time for playing/modding, I'll only patch creatures of mods I personally use. Anyone can feel free to publish similar patches for mods that are not covered.
