📋 About This Mod
I absolutely love the difference Rocky West Gash, The Devilish red Mountain and The Devilish Spines of Madness make to the game so I made some height maps and some normal maps for West Gash and Sheogorad leaving the normals for Rocky Red Mountain as they are pretty good. The Height Maps do make a lot of difference visually when running Openmw. All in one mod for ease as You definitely need these three great mods in you load order.
