📋 About This Mod
WeightLess (SSE Edition)

Description:
I made this mod for myself a while ago, it is my personal flavor of weights for misc items and ingredients (including DLC) as well as options for reducing these to 0 weight. I have included a modular fomod installer. It now also includes a patching script for all modded items.
The script is recommended over the FOMOD.

[]A configurable xedit script that can patch any mod added items.
[
]Configurable multipliers in the script to adjust weights to your desire. Set multiplier to 1 to avoid changes.[]The Older FOMOD version that still applies to vanilla items with all their respective options.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community approval—18,793 endorsements and 747,624 downloads.
- Simple, focused change that directly solves carry weight frustration.
- From 2019 but still a go-to for lightweight inventory management.
⚠️ Cons
- Blanket weight reduction can trivialize carry weight mechanics, reducing survival challenge.
- Last updated in 2019, so it may not account for game patches or DLC released later.
- Potential conflict with other mods that edit item weights or encumbrance values.
For players who despise the 'overencumbered' status and want to loot more freely. For modded playthroughs where default weight limits feel restrictive and tedious. Skip if you enjoy hardcore survival or weight management as a core mechanic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 so you can easily disable the mod if you want default weights back.
- If you have other item stat mods, make sure WeightLess loads last so its weight values take priority.
- After installing, check a few common items in your inventory to confirm their weight has dropped before starting a serious run.
