📋 About This Mod
Check out the original LE Mod : Awesome Mod
This is a port of the original Skyrim mod "YY Anim Replacer - Princess Horse Riding" by yukl to SSE!
I do not hold credit for anything, i just ported the mod!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you know the sign of Chinese zodiac of 2014?
Take a guess. It's the horse!
So I decided to make something related to horses.
This mod replaces horse riding animations with sidesaddle, a way of ladies riding.
The subtle change provides you more immersions and helps your role playing.
Features
Sidesaddle makes your female character look elegant.
Covering most of horse riding animations. Idle, Walk, Trot, Run, Sprint, Jump, Swim, Rear up, Mount and Dismount.
(T)BBP Compatible
Mounted combat is not covered. Sidesaddle doesn't suit for combat.
All NPCs do the same animations. But it is rare to see NPC riding on a horse.

InstallationI strongly recommend you to use MO/BAIN/NMM/Vortex to install.
Make sure to run Fnis after installation!
If you selected the "Female only" version in the installer you have to run the Fnis-Genderpatch too!
Activate and follow the instructions of installation wizard.
Open Installers tab, right click, select "Wizard", and follow the instructions of installation wizard.
Open the archive, choose exactly one folder, rename it "data", then copy "data" folder to your "Skyrim" directory.
Each hkx file should be placed in "Skyrim/data/meshes/actors/character/animations/horse_rider/",
but only "paired_mount.hkx" and "paired_dismount.hkx" should be placed in "Skyrim/data/meshes/sharedkillmoves/human&horse/", because those two are paired animation.
UninstallationThis mod has no esp, no script, no havok behavior, so never dirty your save file.
You can uninstall it whenever you want.
Simply deactivate this mod.
Open Installers tab, right click, select "Uninstall".
Delete the files you installed.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,082 endorsements and over 22k downloads.
- Simple animation swap that gives your character a graceful, princess-like riding pose.
- Works as a direct port, so it's likely stable on SSE if you follow the install instructions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects the riding animation—no other changes, so if you want more variety, this is limited.
- Since it's a port from LE, there's a small risk of animation glitches if you're using other mods that alter horse behavior.
- Last updated in 2019, so it might not be compatible with the latest game patches or other animation overhauls.
For Skyrim players who want a more elegant, feminine riding pose without overhauling the entire animation system. If you're into role-playing a noble or princess character, this is a must-have. Skip it if you're looking for gameplay changes or a full animation pack.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install this—it's a simple drop-in, but a manager makes it easy to uninstall if you don't like it.
- If you're also using other animation mods, place this one lower in your load order to ensure it takes priority.
- Check the mod's posts section for any known compatibility issues with popular horse mods like Convenient Horses.
