📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
I like the Survival Mode features but I'm already using a mod to modify my Carry Weight dynamically. So I modified the value of the Survival Mode carry weight debuff from -150 to 0.
The mod is a simple esp flagged esl so it will not count toward the 254 plugin limit.
Another version is now available (Full version in the download tab). This version also removes the -50 carry weight debuffs added by Survival Mode to the Steed Stone and the Extra Pockets Perk. Now both will grant the normal 100 carry weight instead of 50.
This version was provided by sasnikol.
You'll need to restart Survival Mode for the changes to take effect. Deactivate Survival Mode, wait for your carry weight to go back to normal, and then reactivate it.
REQUIREMENT
Creation Club - Survival Mode
sasnikol for providing the Full Version.
This mod removes the -150 carry weight penalty from Skyrim's Survival Mode, allowing players who use dynamic carry weight mods to enjoy Survival features without the debuff. A full version also removes the -50 penalties from the Steed Stone and Extra Pockets perk. Requires Creation Club Survival Mode.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 346 endorsements and over 13k downloads.
- ESL-flagged so it won't eat your plugin limit.
- Full version fixes the Steed Stone and Extra Pockets perks too.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Creation Club Survival Mode, so it's useless if you don't own that.
- You have to restart Survival Mode to see changes, which is a bit of a hassle.
- Only affects carry weight; if you want other Survival tweaks, this won't help.
For Skyrim players who like Survival Mode's challenge but hate the carry weight penalty, especially if you already use a dynamic carry weight mod. Skip if you don't use Survival Mode or want a broader overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Survival Mode is active before installing, then deactivate and reactivate it in-game to apply the changes.
- If you use a mod manager, let it handle the ESP; otherwise, drop the file into your Data folder.
- Check your load order to ensure this mod loads after Survival Mode's files.
