🎯 Tips & Tricks
Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the file structure—manual installs can get messy with body replacers.
Check your load order—make sure Clawstep loads after any mods that alter armor meshes to avoid conflicts.
If you use a body mod like CBBE or UNP, test compatibility in-game first; this mod may overwrite those meshes.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Solid community backing with 563 endorsements and over 44k downloads.
- Armor compatibility is a big deal—everything's been remade to fit, so you won't see clipping disasters.
- Custom footprints are a nice touch that sells the beast-walk fantasy.
👎 Cons
- Only affects the Dragonborn body—if you wanted followers or other races to have digitigrade legs, this isn't it.
- No install instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author, so you're on your own for setup.
- Last updated July 2026—might not be compatible with future Skyrim updates or other body mods.
