@hane i think you can turn off the aim in archery if you know what i mean and the arrows must normally go ahead but i'm not sure

@hane Or you suck at archery?

очень хорошо

dont get this mod, throws off accuray, it goes off to the left or right randomly
Mithirael 7 Jun, 2014 @ 9:47am 
I'm pretty sure that this is going to conflict with Realistic Archery Mod...

Please make this for dragonborn
Birdman 14 Apr, 2014 @ 11:19pm 
i could hit it from that far without a mod

emanjr421, it's a config file option. Go to Documents/My Games/Skyrim/Skyrim.ini and add to the very bottom:

HOW DO YOU SHOOT THAT FAR?? Is it a mod?
Forerunner Architect 6 Jan, 2014 @ 11:23pm 
so custom arrows from other mods dont spin unfortunately... anyway to make all arrows spin? vanilla or mod?
xXxLuteMasterxXx 27 Dec, 2013 @ 2:52am 
spiraled feathers just make them spin faster, slowing them down but increasing stability/accuracy
xXxLuteMasterxXx 27 Dec, 2013 @ 2:51am 
couldnt help it, people whom are saying arrows dont spin in real life, they do! even with completely straight feathers or none! i am a experienced archer trust me!
kage74 26 Dec, 2013 @ 2:35pm 
Will this mod work with the "Vanilla Archery Improved" mod and if not can it be made to work?
Ricefield Tyrant 14 Dec, 2013 @ 7:09am 
make Dragonborn too
Minititano 15 Sep, 2013 @ 8:14am 
Hi! I have these other mods installed: Kill move control, Arrows of instant kill, Recurve longbows and Recurve longbows perks. Could you please tell me if there are any known compatibility issues with these mods? Thanks for your help!
Ricefield Tyrant 8 Sep, 2013 @ 2:27pm 
lol! Last time when I shot an arrow, it spinning and swing to other location! And Some time it goes up!
takewolf 4 Jul, 2013 @ 9:59am

UncleWarBot 30 Mar, 2013 @ 9:04am 
Thanks Jokerine!

Arrows in real life spin when you shoot them. In every culture around the world they applied the Fletchings (feathers) with a slight curve towards the back to give the arrow a spin as it flies through the air. This gives it more lift and less drag just like you want to get a good spin on an american (or rugby) football.

Will this also work for Dragonborn expansion?
Miciso 19 Jan, 2013 @ 10:09am 
finally more arrow mods as im straying off the swords-magic im going more for daggers-bows and this is a mod that everyone should have by default... bethesda was really lazy with realism luckilly we can mod stuff :D
Numb7numb 17 Jan, 2013 @ 10:30pm 
I know it is just a game but in modern Archery they actually do have arrows with spiral feathers that cause the arrow to spin in flight. It increases the accuracy of the arrow. It could be an awsome mod if it could duplicate that. My original comments wasn't really meant as a complaint but rather to give some information.
CiallAgusNeart 17 Jan, 2013 @ 9:21pm 
looks cool. and for those that think it cant spin do to how it looks well it can spin do to wind and ect...

@.:DerMilchmann [AUT]:.
Look for the section called "The Spinning Arrow".

If you could somehow make a mod that showed the archers paradox of the arrow in flight you would be a legend.
DerMilchmannAUT 16 Jan, 2013 @ 9:29pm 
And what exactly would make the arrow spin? I mean it sure looks interesting but it would kind of destroy my gameplay experience, I'm not playing Max Payne but Skyrim.
Jarl Ballin' 16 Jan, 2013 @ 5:08pm 
You and your modding buddies should create a mod that allows the player to buy a market stall in whiterun or solitude and sell items to NPCs the player could select the type of product he/she is selling (Alchemist, Blacksmith, Hunter, Ect) and upgrade their stall for coin witch would add things that are related to their product. If someone released this mod i would be so greatful. I would do it myself but i dont know how.

Numbnumb. Its just a game , it makes it look better.
Numb7numb 15 Jan, 2013 @ 11:16am 
The way the arrows are made in this there is no way they would spin at all. The feathers at the end would need to be put on in a corkscrew fashion in order to get spin. Flat won't make spin.
minikane 15 Jan, 2013 @ 8:21am 
oh, take it back, so the other one is for dawngard, it makes crossbow arrows spin?
minikane 15 Jan, 2013 @ 8:19am 
why have you published this 2 times??!?!?! you doing it every time it goes off the 1st page?
Laptop 15 Jan, 2013 @ 6:50am 
For Dawnguard users, should we get the Dawnguard one only? Or both of them?
AGM 14 Jan, 2013 @ 7:45pm 
+1 great realistic mod :D, pos rep!!!!!!
Bronspawn  [author] 14 Jan, 2013 @ 7:24pm 
Yes, if you get the Closer Quivers and Longer Arrows plugin, it will make that mod's arrows spin.
AGM 14 Jan, 2013 @ 6:52pm 
do I need a plugin for that mod because it is what you said and I have it, manually installed from nexus
Bronspawn  [author] 14 Jan, 2013 @ 3:52pm 
AGM, if the mod is called Closer Quivers and Longer Arrows, go to the Skyrim Nexus page for this mod and get the compatibility plugin there.
AGM 14 Jan, 2013 @ 12:57pm 
I fucking hate update notes, was reading through this then some shit poped up, I'll get your mod but I also have a mod that I think makes arrors longer and some other shit
Bronspawn  [author] 14 Jan, 2013 @ 12:07pm 
Never experienced that FPS drop. Any more details you can provide?
Ill Will 14 Jan, 2013 @ 11:10am 
Archery - Spinning Arrows is something I've been waiting for, it just makes my FPS drop a lot during sneaking while around NPC's. Patch?
Dresta 14 Jan, 2013 @ 4:06am 
Dont know or care if arrows spin irl, but this mod is quite cool.
DeathClaw 13 Jan, 2013 @ 2:22pm 
That was totally AWESOME.

Arrows do not spin. BUT damn that would make you one creative archer if you could.
HabituallyErrant 13 Jan, 2013 @ 11:47am 
@Furor, the spinning of the arrow creates a gyroscopic action, keeping the arrow moving straight instead of allowing turbulence to knock it off target. This is the same reason that bullets spin.
It is surprisingly difficult to find an explanation of this, however.
Zestsco 13 Jan, 2013 @ 11:15am 
arrows spin.
FlaK 13 Jan, 2013 @ 11:02am 
Might not be realistic, but still awesome!
