About this mod
Small mod that adds mammoth hide to the game as a lootable drop from mammoths and giants.
- Permissions and credits
!IMPORTANT!:When updating to a new version, turn all available hides into leather first; save and exit; remove the mod; open the game and make a clean save; close the game and install the new version. THIS IS REQUIRED FOR THE NEW MOD TO WORK.
What's it do?
Like many of the people that have and will download this mod, I've always found it silly that the vanilla game lacks this feature. Mammoths are one of the most protected and hard-to-kill animals in the game (especially with wildcat), why shouldn't their deaths be rewarding? Are you telling me I went through the trouble of killing two giant berserkers and 2 mammoths for two tusks and two mammoth snouts? I'm sorry Bethesda, but that's just not good enough.
This mod adds a lightweight hide to the game, lightweight meaning that instead of one 10 pound hide like many other mods implement this, I chose to cut the hide up into several manageable pieces. Mammoth hides can drop from Mammoths and Giants (in smaller quantities) and can be purchased from vendors and hunters.
The Hides each have a weight of 3 and can drop in bundles ranging from 1 to 4 on Mammoths (with a higher rate of 2 and 3), and for Giants in bundles of 1 to 3 (with a higher rate at 2). They return 4 leather and are valued at 150 gold (same as vanilla tusks).
When you first start the game with the mod installed you should get a message in the top right corner stating that "You've learned how to skin mammoths!".
SkyTEST Addon:
With permission from etayorius, I've made an addon that adds my hides to the baby mammoths in his mod!
Baby mammoths will drop Hides in bundles of 1 to 3, with a higher rate of 1 and 2, 3 being rare.
SkyTEST Addon Plus:
This version does the same as the SkyTEST Addon, but also adds 15 "mammoth steak" to baby mammoths. Mammoth steak is added by the SkyTEST mod, and is not included in the addon itself.
v1.1.0 - Texture and Fomod!
- Big thanks to Haladoon for churning out the texture used in the mod!
- Fomod version available for loose files install and choice of vanilla cow texture or unique custom texture.
v1.1.9 - Tweaks and Balances!
- Custom texture now becoming standard, cow texture option no longer available.
- Balanced the number of hides that drop from both mammoths and giants.
- SkyTEST addon to make baby mammoths drop 1-3 hides!
- Hunters will now sell the hides (though it's a bit rare, hunters suck haha).

Compatibility
This mod should be compatible with every other mod. It adds the item to leveled lists and doesn't override any so there shouldn't be an issue.
Recommended Mod(s)!
MAMMOTH by Kajuan, if you don't already have it!
Improved Mammoth Loot by SunlarSyrith. Has more features than mine that I didn't personally need due to other mods, and their hide is larger and less manageable than mine, not to say that's bad, it's just not what I want. If you're looking for more than just the hide, I'd suggest going to their mod instead.
Grindable Mammoth Tusks by Arndas, another no-brainer mod in my opinion. especially useful if you don't use Improved mammoth loot.
Mammoth Cheese Retexture by Haladoon, an excellent retexture for the cheese you find at giant camps. I highly recommend it!
