🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure you have the correct version of SKSE for your Skyrim version — mismatched versions cause crashes.
Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install the plugin, and check that it's enabled in your load order.
If you're using other mods that affect reanimation, load Enhanced Reanimation after them to ensure its fixes take priority.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Mod conflicts
Check load order. Disable conflicting mods one by one.
⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust (8,500 endorsements, 3.6M downloads) — this is a must-have for necromancer builds
- Directly addresses annoying bugs that break reanimation spells, making them actually work as intended
- Lightweight SKSE plugin — no heavy scripts or conflicts, just a clean fix
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2022 — may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or other mods that alter reanimation
- Requires SKSE, so you need to set that up first if you haven't already
- Only affects reanimation — if you don't use necromancy, this mod does nothing for you
