this would have been so useful on my 360 version... i went in a cave only to come out with shadow mare fighting 2 legendary dragons... and dies instantly... no way to save shadow mare... and it NEVER REVIVES EITHER... so can you add this to https://mods.bethesda.net/#en/workshop/skyrim for the xbox one version

Shadowmere is not essential by default. Both in the wiki's, game files and from experience I can tell you that shadowmere is not essential. Since he has 5x heah regeneration, he normally doesn't die from combat although difficult mods, fall damage and powerful characters can kill Shadowmere, the only way to get him back being to go to the original spawn point 10 in-game days later. This is inconvenient to many players who often just reload and lose progress, so this mod makes him essential.
Also, it makes frost essential, which isn't normally the case.

What are you stupid? Shadowmere is already essential by default. This is a needless mod and your an idiot for making it. Rated down.

Geat....I personallly wont need either item ( spell book/ scroll your decision)) but I thought the people that have rouble with console comands mght. Killing off the DORKS is fun but you lose out on a good mount (the people your asked to assassinate are TOTALY worthless and ridiclos except the last one the Emporer....and he's practcly ASKING to die!.....but really the others ?)

@Gold Zin
I'll update the mod soon for you. :-)
Gol Zin Viing 9 Jul, 2014 @ 5:39pm 
PERFECT! ( and this solves the problem brought up by Kool aid ) I cant STAND the Assassin questline ( or thieves) so I ALWAYS kill off the DORK Brotherhood and my Current PC has never rode Shadowmere....the above console command worked like a charm and Summoned her from the beyond.....Suggestion you could make a spell book / scroll that will summon the Horse from whereever it goes if the Player decides to destroy the DORKS....just place it on Astrid's desk in the DB sanctuary (you dont normally get Shadowmere until late in the Assassin's QL)

*SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN'T COMPLETED THE DARK BROTHERHOOD STORY*
It was really annoying since after you kill Astrid you can't get back Shadowmere unless you use the console commands.
Excalibatorious  [author] 10 Jan, 2014 @ 11:25am 
@Anthony Some mods that add harder creatures can kill shadowmere, and in vanilla game shadowmere can die from falling. Frost can die normally too.
Gunns0819 9 Jan, 2014 @ 8:34am 
this mod is useless because unless you go into console and kill Shadowmere he wont die because of his insane regen

@DrD
No problem, glad it helped :)
DrD 13 Nov, 2013 @ 11:55am 
Thank you for fixing a peeve of mine... a major load save issue every time shadow is thown in the air from rising water level then dropped to his death. Sometimes with me on him even!! Resurecting brings him back, but does not auto set me as its owner or it as a nearly essential npc like it starts out. So, it has to be a load save for it to be "normal".

erf i mean frost lol
chebonaparte 17 Jul, 2013 @ 1:49pm

Nexus Version has been updated to have a speed boost.
Excalibatorious  [author] 24 Mar, 2013 @ 6:05am 
Update 2.1 Notes
Fixed issue with frost sometimes dying.
Both horses respawn if they somehow still die ( Please report if they die and how so I can fix it )

Also unfortunatly I cannot figure out how to put 2 files into one steam upload so I cannot make an extra file for increased speeds. I will however be doing one on the nexus at
http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/22601

Thanks for all the favorites and download guys, a lot more then what I was expecting :D

@Dragonborn
Armour mods have a high possibility to conflict, so I can't really help with that, you will just have to choose.
You could try clicking frost in the game and typing setessential 1 as posted in a previous comment, but it has potential to be buggy.

@DovahKratos
It would be preferable to not use codes other than spawn ones to keep bugs to a minimal, although I will update this now with an optional esp. which when enabled makes shadowmere and frost 2X as fast :)
DovaKratos 10 Feb, 2013 @ 9:09pm 
Linky is there a code that makes shadowmere run faster?
Kundason 10 Feb, 2013 @ 8:45am 
@Linky yes i have armor horses but it work on shadowmere and not frost
Excalibatorious  [author] 9 Feb, 2013 @ 7:06am 
@7daniel5555
It works for me and several others, do you perhaps have amod that edits frost in any way?
Ill run some tests in a bit and update if needs be.
Kundason 8 Feb, 2013 @ 7:47am 
You are lie I test dis on shadowmere he or she cant die but frost can die !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excalibatorious  [author] 16 Oct, 2012 @ 1:16pm 
Sorry for the late reply!
Frost and Shadowmere are both within the game, you may have been confused and combined the two :)
Frostmere doesnt exist with or without the mod, this mod just makes shadowmere and frost essential :)

Hope I helped!
Will1010 23 Sep, 2012 @ 2:01pm 
Does this game usally have frostmere or does this mod add him because i couldn't find frostmere in skyrim at all?
Excalibatorious  [author] 4 Aug, 2012 @ 12:03pm 
@The NecroKing
This mod isn't a mod that adds features so Shadowmere and Frost will be normal, except for the ability to not die, so no sorry I wont be putting on a armoured version

@Luk220 No problem mate :)
alwayskayday 4 Aug, 2012 @ 8:53am 
@Linky glad to hear. ive died so many times from falls when me console-invicible frost just stands there
ReadWizard 3 Aug, 2012 @ 1:06pm 
can you have one where you can respawn an armored shadowmere or frostmere
Kurf 23 Jul, 2012 @ 12:28pm 
@Linky, Good point.
Excalibatorious  [author] 23 Jul, 2012 @ 12:21pm 
@Dovahkitty (funny name btw XD) Spoiler* I know but this is the most common way and the quest in which you get shadowmere is still linked to the DB anyway so its still a DB quest of sorts :)
Kurf 23 Jul, 2012 @ 11:55am 
@Linky, *SPOILER* Not technically JUST the Dark Brotherhood storyline, If you choose to destroy the Dark Brotherhood you can still get Shadowmere.
Excalibatorious  [author] 23 Jul, 2012 @ 9:46am 
@Luk220 This mod is safer then the console to use :)
@cfuhst 72 Thanks a bunch :)
@Metalclaw90 To download mods click the subscribe button under the picture on the right
@maxwell's Silver Hammer and @CloudShiffer Your welcome have fun! :)
@bobslime and @mstangsvtcobra98 Use the codes in the description to spawn another frost or shadowmere :)) to open the console (used to type codes) hit the button under esc. :)
@Zakeetis *Spoiler* In the dark brotherhood quest :)) *End of spoiler*
Thanks for the comments guys and have fun!
alwayskayday 22 Jul, 2012 @ 3:27pm 
seems convenient, but i got the same effect easily by clicking on Frost and typing "setessential 1"
Kurf 22 Jul, 2012 @ 2:34pm 
@metalclaw909, I was gonna ask if you were stupid, but you clearly are if you censor things on STEAM. :I
RavenDXM 22 Jul, 2012 @ 8:49am 
Nice, because sometimes I fell off form a cliff...........
DovaKratos 20 Jul, 2012 @ 11:01pm 
Very well done!!!!! @ metalclaw,Just suscribe to this mod. and it should come up
metalclaw909 20 Jul, 2012 @ 4:38pm 
were is the f****** download butten
V1ns3n7 19 Jul, 2012 @ 10:17am 
Брутальная лошадка!!
DrNick 18 Jul, 2012 @ 3:43pm 
Sweet!!
Sabishii Cloud 17 Jul, 2012 @ 2:48pm 
Lol, i didn't know what Shadowmere can die))) Thanks for mod))
Scotchy 16 Jul, 2012 @ 4:01pm 
Too late for that...
Chad Football 14 Jul, 2012 @ 1:08pm 
@Zakeetis You get him during the main Dark Brotherhood quest
Bobslime 13 Jul, 2012 @ 9:26pm 
To late I already killed shadowmere OoO
ManwithNoname 12 Jul, 2012 @ 4:34pm 
does this work if Frost is already dead? That stupid horse thinks he can kill dragons.
Zakeetis The Iron Griffin 12 Jul, 2012 @ 11:02am 
where do you find him?
Excalibatorious  [author] 2 Apr, 2012 @ 11:05am 
Thanks for the comment :D
I really hope people see this, as lots of mods do get lost in the massive amounts of pages.
AllieCat54 [gD] 1 Apr, 2012 @ 8:00am 
Well thank you very much. Have a good day :) I am sure there will be ones that will love you for this. If you do it right as soon as you get to Riften now you can start the Frost quest and have a good horse early on. It makes such a difference.
Excalibatorious  [author] 1 Apr, 2012 @ 7:32am 
I have added frost now as well
Excalibatorious  [author] 1 Apr, 2012 @ 7:20am 
Ok, Ill do frost now ;) (itll be added to this mod)
AllieCat54 [gD] 31 Mar, 2012 @ 10:03pm 
Thanks for this again. Could you do one for Frost also, you get him earlier in the game if you wish. :)
AllieCat54 [gD] 31 Mar, 2012 @ 6:45pm 
Shadowmere will not stay, when you go into a cave or house he is gone again when you come out. Thanks for the codes thou, they have helped.
