📋 About This Mod
My new meshes and HD BC7 textures that replace the ugly and very low quality vanilla model (and textures). Namely BurntBook01.nif and BurntBook02.nif.
I hope you will like it. Endorsement is very appreciate 😊
UPDATE 2. 0
Added new unique look for Overdue book replacer. ESP flagged ESL.
When I created the burnt books replacers, I didn't know that Overdue book also uses the burnt book mesh (BurntBook01.nif). Because of this, it turned out that the burnt book and the Overdue book looked the same in the game with my mod, and differed only in name. I spent a lot of effort trying to solve this problem, but to no avail...
Now it's fixed !!!
Update 2. 0 - this is a standalone mod that has no dependency on the main file (burnt book replacers), so you can use it separately, combining it with burnt book retextures from other authors, if for some reason you don't like my burnt book replacers.
I know this is not lore-appropriate because instead of burnt books I made old worn damaged books. This is my personal choice. I did it this way because I like it. I hope you like it as much as I do. If you don't like it, that's your choice. I'm very sorry.
Please don't waste your time writing comments like "I don't like it because it's not burnt", "I don't like what you did, you should try harder and redo it", "I don't like the inscription on the book cover and/or your nickname on the cover, I want you to remove it and redo it without these inscriptions", etc. I won't respond to these comments, and of course I won't redo anything for you for such comments.
