Better Potion Weight

In 1 collection by 13
A better time in skyrim (By icanisbeme)

Description
This mod alters the weight of potions and poisons throughout the game. The weight is no longer a flat 0.5, but is determined by the strength of the potion. The stronger the potion, the heavier.

I made this mod because when cleaning out my inventory, I found that I was carrying ~75 kilos of potions
Compatibility
---------------
This should work with any mods, unless they alter potion weight.
Also works with mods that change potions' efftects, such as SkyRE!

This mod is great never liked how the potions were different sizes but same weight.

Regarding Leather
As far as leather armor goes I would say it has more weight because of the metal added to it. Though you do not need it to craft, by how it looks metal is included thus increasing its weight.

Also when you cut a pelt into strips you are also tanning it to remove what is left of the meat and the fur which lowers the weight. As well is the strips are all the same size you will not be able to use all of the pelt since they are not sqaure shaped.

Ok, glad you fixed it!

it may have been some odd reaction between mods then because i removed this and it works fine (i might have accidentally downloaded two potion reweighting mods)

@Donovan Baggins I've had no other reports of this bug, have you tried working with the other mods that you have installed?

Anyone who likes this mod might also like Lighter Leather. The vanilla game makes no sense there either. You start with a pelt, but when you turn it into leather it gets heavier. Then when you slice a piece of leather into 4 strips, those are very light. The mod only does one thing: leather goes from weight 2 to weight 0.4.

@Bullwinkle Yeah that was the logic behind this mod. The higher tier potions look like a liter flask, and the minor potions looked about the size of a soda can in real life, so why was there no weight difference?

And it totally makes sense. When you pick up 2 minor healing potions, they come in small bottles. Your toon could just dump both of them into a bigger bottle and call it a potion of healing. No reason a small bottle should weigh as much as a medium.

@Bullwinkle I totally agree :) I spent more time managing my carryweight than I did fighting dragons!
