📋 About This Mod
Description
Extends coverage of SPID-Protected Citizens to the player ownable horses, including the horses purchased from Hearthfires stewards.
CC support wasn't necessary, as all CC mounts are essential with one exception for the Daedric Horse. That one technically needs to "die" since it's a summon.
Supports the protected version of Protected Citizens only.
Install & Uninstall
Should be safe to add at anytime, but I'm unsure about uninstalling.
To install, use a mod manager or manually place the INI into the data folder.
To uninstall, deactivate in your mod manager or delete the mod's INI from your data folder.
This addon extends SPID-Protected Citizens to protect player-owned horses, including Hearthfire purchases. It's a small, focused mod with 185 endorsements, last updated in November 2022. Works only with the protected version of Protected Citizens and requires SPID.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 185 endorsements and over 11k downloads.
- Fills a specific gap for horse protection without touching CC content.
- Simple INI-based install that's easy to manage.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires SPID and Protected Citizens as dependencies, adding setup steps.
- Uninstall may not be fully safe—author unsure about removing it.
- Only works with the protected version, not the essential version, limiting flexibility.
For Skyrim players who use SPID-Protected Citizens and want their horses to be just as protected as their followers. If you're tired of your horse dying in combat, this is a quick fix. Skip if you don't use SPID or prefer essential horses.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have SPID and Protected Citizens installed first, and use the protected version, not the essential one.
- Use a mod manager to install the INI to avoid manual data folder mistakes.
- If you use Creation Club horses, note that the Daedric Horse won't be protected—that's intentional.
