📋 About This Mod
This mod adds normalmaps to all vanilla/SI eye textures except Argonians and Dremora. Normalmaps which are created in a way that they add a feeling of depth to the iris, making them reflect light more accurately. I took inspiration from a Skyrim mod which I no longer seem to be able to find. So far this mod supports most vanilla or OCOv2 eye textures, but I plan to expand it to support mods which adds more playable eyes and I'm open for suggestions =)
A compact texture mod that adds eye normalmaps to improve iris light reflection. With 1,725 endorsements and 263,358 downloads, it's a popular visual enhancement for players seeking more realistic character eyes. Last updated in 2018, it remains a simple drop-in improvement.
