which mod is this spell from? "Reanimate X"

[moojiber]

hey guys so i was playing a heavily modded out playthrough until i noticed around level 20 ish that i was getting CTD when entering dawnguard or southern parts of the map. so i tried to start fresh and reinstall most mods. but during my playthrough I used a spell that was already in my inventory called "reanimate X" and it does pretty much what you'd think. it was basically dead thrall, but you could use it on ANYTHING. i had a gargoyle that i killed following me around after casting it and it seemed to have lasted forever. i woud really like to find it again but i cant find any mention of said spell in the workshop or even on nexus. any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can't say I've ever seen that spell, and I have multiple mods that add spells.

Maybe it's some sort of single-spell mod that specifically adds this one spell? Or one of the cheat mods that add OP spells.

NPCs like Serana actually use a Reanimate spell

Open up the console by pressing ~ (or whatever key happens to be in the top left, under the esc key). Type this:

help "reanimate x"

If nothing comes up, try other variations until you find it. The name of a spell isn't always identical to what its labeled in the game files.

Next to the spell, you should see a mixture of numbers and letters. The first two are dictated by where the mod the spell is coming from is in your load order. Keep in mind, its in hexadecimal. So if its say '10', that's not the tenth mod, its the sixteenth.

This is how you determine where anything is coming from. Hopefully you're using a mod manager, which should have the index of the mod listed which each mod enabled. Keep in mind, only mods that have esp, esm, or esl files get one. Simple replacers do not. Since this is a mod spell, it should in theory require an esp or esm file, even if its simply renaming or altering a vanilla spell.

it won't find things when there is a space

If does if you put it in quotation marks. I do it all the time. Honestly, I've gotten into the habit of doing it with all my searches even if they contain no spaces or punctuation.

I honestly never tried that so good to know. anyway there is already a reanimate spell in the game. Serana uses it.

I think you got the OP's question wrong.
He's not asking if there's such a spell in general, he's asking which mod the spell called "Reanimate X"is from. The "X" is part of the spell's name, which is clearly not a vanilla spell.

I meant why put a mod out when there is already a spell that reanimates to begin with?

The mod in question apparently allows you to reanimate _anything_, including things that can't be animated int he vanilla game at all.

For example, the "reanimate lesser undead" spell won't be able to reanimate a high level bandit.

Ah ok I see now. Good to know :)

Thank you for all the responses guys

I did not see a list of your mods but it sounds like it could be Better Dead Thralls which allows you to reanimate anything.
