📋 About This Mod
This simple patch fixes some visual bugs on OpenMW. The boats that were buggy on OpenMW were replaced with the meshes that "just work" as Todd says. As a result you'll get less boat diversity but there won't be any visual bugs when you use the scenic route as a traveling option. The issue still persists on the latest development builds.
Requirement:
- Boats mod by Abot
Installation:
Simply overwrite the meshes from the original mod with the meshes from this patch.
Recommended mods:
- Replacement ships for Abot's Boats - fixes some issues with scenic ships on OpenMW.
Credits and thanks:
The meshes that are being used in this patch are from Boats mod by Abot, I checked scenic routes to see what boat models were causing issues on OpenMW and replaced the meshes that were buggy. I made this patch for myself because this issue was bothering me, hope it will be useful to other people!
Thank you, Abot, for the awesome Boats mod and your permission to use the meshes from it in this patch :)
