📋 About This Mod
IF ANYONE OUT THERE KNOWS OF A BUDGET, QUALITY TABLET/PEN SETUP FOR DRAWING WITH PHOTOSHOP, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TELL ME WHAT IT IS
Small update - Read the change log.
They are twice as large as the vanilla textures (I don't know how to math. Original textures were 1024x1024. Now its 2048 or 4096. I think its a little more than twice the size), you will have a very _slight_ performance drop. My frame rate drops less than 1 fps, from 46 to 45. 5 using these textures. (It will probably drop 1-3 frames if yer in downtown Boston) Small price to pay so you dont look at this all day
Feedback is important! I do take it to heart. All of the feedback I've gotten so far has been tremendous help, and makes it so I can create a better mod for you guys :3
TO DO:
- []Make an option for 8" bricks, in keeping with lore of Boston []Fix alpha channels on trim textures. []Learn how to properly make the diffuse map add in dirt texturing. []Find, and remake, all the obscure brick trim textures that aren't specifically named "brick" in the /architecture/building folder
- Fix Goodneighbor's bricks. Because I actually never did those >.> They're probably reused somewhere else to. They also did not get done. (sadface)
THANKS TO CHUCKLES 2. 0 FOR FEATURING MY MOD :3 Really inspired me to actually get around to making the 4k version :3

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 994 endorsements and 22,668 downloads.
- Straightforward texture replacement—no gameplay changes, just better visuals.
- 4K resolution ensures crisp, detailed brickwork in-game.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—may not be optimized for the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition.

For Skyrim players who are bothered by the ugly default brick textures and want a quick visual upgrade without overhauling the entire game. Perfect for modders building a high-resolution texture setup. Skip if you're on the latest Skyrim version and want guaranteed compatibility—this mod is old and may need manual tweaking.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using Skyrim Special Edition, you may need to extract the textures and repack them for SSE, or use a mod manager that can handle oldrim mods.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily toggle this mod on and off without messing up your Data folder.
- Pair this with other 4K texture mods for a consistent visual upgrade across all surfaces.
