Archery - Spinning Arrows

This little animation mod seems to enhance vanilla ranged killmove, bringing more realism. I tried to find a kind of realistic comparative video. :P

There is a compatibility patch for the STEP mod Closer Quivers and Longer Arrows.

 

Moreover, it seems to be adopted for a while by Gopher in his Lets Play.

It's a cool effect, very cinematic, but not actually realistic; arrows don't spin when released from a bow they sort of shake or wobble. I wouldn't say it''s a necessary mod for STEP.

I find the mod essential when playing any character that uses bows, and as it now covers immersive weapons, I'm actually making space in my load order to acomotate it.

It really makes a diference to see the arrow really spin, and not go like it was a paper plane flying staticaly.
