📋 About This Mod
===========
Description
===========
This mod transforms the coast to the south of Anvil into a series of large cliffs. Further south at the mouth of the River Strid, rock pools can be found as well as a large sandbar and sandunes.
Unique Landscapes (short: UL) is based on the vision of a diversified and beautiful Cyrodiil. Imagine a world where exploring not only means to find new enemies and treasures but to enjoy gorgeous landscapes, a world where every step could lead to a new and unique visual experience. That is the Cyrodiil UL is working on.
To achieve a goal that huge, the UL project consists of multiple single mods. Each mod modifies a part of Cyrodiil, following a single theme. Usually UL mods get developed completely independently from each other. This way each modder has a maximum of freedom to work on his or her vision, so every UL mod gets its own style and contributes to the diversification of Cyrodiil.

Compatibility Information
=========================
Please visit the Unique Landscapes Compatibility Patches page for a list of known and patched conflicts.
All UL mods are compatible with each other. However, there is one issue arising from the limitations of the game's graphic engine: Landscape LOD may overlap for different mods.
To make the landscape look the same in the distance as it does up close, you need to download two tools. Use the Landscape LOD Generator TES4LL to create distant ground, and use TES4LODGen to create distant objects. These tools create entirely different things so there is no conflict between them, and both should be run after you have sorted your load order using BOSS. The results will be unique to your personal game, not a generic combination of only the most popular mods.

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in December 2025 — may not be compatible with future Oblivion patches or mods
- Only affects a specific coastal area, so it's a niche addition
For Oblivion players who want to spice up the Gold Coast with dramatic cliffs and coastal features. If you're a landscape purist or want a more varied shoreline, this is for you. Skip if you prefer vanilla terrain or want changes across the whole map.
