📋 About This Mod
I found the vanilla casting animation to be very ugly with the throwing weapons. I made this with reference to soulsborne animation and even scaled weapon bone so that it disappears from your hand when thrown then reappears after (though not very obvious ingame).
Animation plays when attacking with these in right hand:
- Dung pie (poo)
- Flame Bottle
Requires GLENMORIL and Dynamic Animation Replacer
The weapons are sold by Glenmoril merchants/crafted at anvil/forge.

Update 1. 1
I have added support for Throwing Weapons Lite SE, i have never used this mod and dont know why the weapons take a weirdly longer time to charge and your animation will interrupt if you don't hold your attack button long enough. There is nothing i can do about it.

I will not make it support CACO as that mod's bombs did not work for me. I'm attacking but no projectiles are spawning. Unless you're willing to tell me the formID's of the weapons and the names of the animations it uses, i'm not wasting my time on it.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 492 endorsements and over 118k downloads—clearly fills a need.
- Does exactly what it says: swaps the casting animation for a throw, no bloat.
- Focused scope means it won't mess with other weapon animations.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Glenmoril throwing weapons, so if you don't use them, this is useless.
- Last updated in 2021—might have compatibility issues with newer game patches or mods.
- No compatibility notes, so you'll need to test with your mod list, especially if you use other animation overhauls.
For Skyrim players who use Glenmoril throwing weapons and want a more natural throw animation instead of the default casting pose. Skip if you don't use those weapons or if you're looking for broader animation changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager—no FOMOD needed.
- If you use other animation mods, load this one after them to ensure it takes priority.
- Check that you have the Glenmoril weapons installed; otherwise the mod won't have any effect.
