Solstheim: Tomb of the Snow Prince

aka: Solstheim Overhaul

By Wollibeebee

Description:

Solstheim: Tomb of the Snow Prince - previously know as Solstheim Overhaul, is a

huge overhaul to the TES3: Morrowind expansion, Bloodmoon. It focuses

mostly on landscapes, graphics and bug fixes that do not affect

gameplay. The goal of S:TOTSP is to bring the island of Solstheim and

all that it contains to a new, more modern standard. This way, the mod

plays nicely with most modern Morrowind mods.

Now the awkward hills of Solstheim are enabled as mountains and the dense forests no longer

feel sloppy. The choas of floating items and in a few case, missing

shoes has all been fixed. The blurry, aged textures and models of the

original Bloodmoon expansion are all high-rez textures on par with the

majority of most Morrowind graphical replacing mods.

Fort Frostmoth is now a small Imperial town contained within the fort,

complete with public goods and wares to aid the player in their early

days of the exploration.

Each and every region and it's exterior cell in Solstheim have been completely remade from the ground up. From

the icy cliffs of the Moesrings Mountains which now force the player to

bring a levitation potion or spell with them if they wish to traverse

the terrain, to the unfriendly and heavily forest region of the

Hirstaang Forest. All exterior landmarks vaguely remain in their

pre-positioned locations. This way maps depicting the original expansion

still allow you to find locations easily enough when using 3rd party

maps and walkthroughs.

Thanks to the Skyrim: Home of the Nords team the region now has TES5: Skyrim like Nordic Barrows, adding a new

type of location for older players to find and explore. There are

currently no entrances or interiors for them.

Thanks to CGtextures and a few fellow Morrowind modders almost every single

texture and many of the models from the Vanilla expansion have been

completely redone. This excludes creatures, weapons and armor as I

believe that those should be replaced separately by another mod, one

that does not focus so heavily on the game world like this mod does.

Windows Glow has been completely integrated into this mod, with new textures by

Hicks233. Be sure not to use any older versions of Windows Glow that

affect Solstheim.
