About this mod Machine translation

This mod makes Shadowmere's textures a bit darker, gives him better stats and some new abilities to make him more unique. ::Features::

This version edits Shadowmere's appearance by darkening his textures, improving his attributes, and adding some shadow-themed abilities to his name as well as an in-game cut scene that introduces him.

This mod does a few things:

It edits Shadowmere's textures and meshes.

It sets Shadowmere to a necessary state so he doesn't die.

It provides the Shadowmere with its own separate saddle mount for maximum compatibility.

It allows Shadowmere's levels to scale with the player - unlike vanilla Shadowmere, Shadowmere now has higher levels of health.

It ensures that Shadowmere will not break the player's invisibility while sneaking, and prevents him from "reporting" any crimes your character commits.

It allows Shadowmere to only attack in combat against weak enemies, and grants him a Cloak of Disease spell that activates during combat and deals damage to enemies within range.

It gives Shadowmere complete immunity to falling damage.

It gives Shadowmere 100% toxicity and disease resistance.

It gives Shadowmere the ability to walk on water and some spells to fight enemies.

It adds some invisibility perks for good measure, as well as quiet casting perks to his abilities and spells.

It gives him some bonus stats for better survivability, such as extra armor, health, health regeneration, damage reflection, and spell absorption.

It increases Shadowmere's speed by 37.5% and gives him extra stamina for longer sprints. Stamina recovery has also been increased to reduce downtime between sprints.

When the weather is cloudy or cloudy, Shadow Valley enters "Shadow Stalker" mode. Shadowstalker status will be indicated by a subtle aura of shadows passing over him. In this state, Shadowmere will gain a 12.5% ​​speed bonus (50% bonus speed) and some extra stamina, further helping to "increase" Shadowmere's speed by sprinting. Tip: Players can strategically use the Stormcalling Shout to trigger rain, which will transform Shadow into a Shadowstalker. Shadow Stalker will also improve his melee combat skills.

Shadowmere enters "Nightstalker" state between 9pm and 5am. In this state, Shadow Rain will shroud the shadows, releasing a more powerful aura. Nightcrawler will gain 25% bonus speed (a net increase of 62.5% speed) as well as some extra mana to cast his spells. Nightstalker also increases the effectiveness of the Shadowmere spell.

This mod is not:

Edit horse racing or use your own custom race.

Giving him an excessive amount of motivation to instantly kill his enemies.

Use any script. ::Require::

Dragonborn::New Game Installation::

Install the mod virtually using your preferred mod manager, or copy and paste the contents of the zip file into the Data directory. Note that you can only use either of the two main files, either the Saddle Mesh Replacer and either the Shadowmere Mesh Replacer. The "Default" version provides all of the above features, while the "Mundane" version removes all bonus spells and effects but retains all bonus attributes. ::Mid Game Installation::

Follow the sections described above to install the mod. For a midplaythrough installation of this mod, changes to Shadowmere should take effect immediately, even if you have acquired Shadowmere before. If for some reason the saddle doesn't update, then don't panic - go to an indoor unit like a house (any unit the horse doesn't share with you should do this), press the tilde key (~) and type "pcb" (just pcb without the quotes) and press ENTER - once done, Shadowmere will finally equip his modified saddle. Instead of using pcb console commands to "force" Shadowmere to equip a new saddle, you can continue your adventure in Skyrim or fast traverse the map a few times, and doing so will force the game engine to "update" Shadowmere's automatic saddle for you. ::renew::

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
