📋 About This Mod
Hello, first of all i'm french so sorry if my english sucks !
Description :
In my opinion the texture of the darkbrotherhood door look so ugly, unfortunately i didn't find any retexture of it and for me it was a real problem to think every time i go in the sanctuary "Oh my god, this look sooo ugly !" So i did a "small" 2048x2048 retexture of the door with glowing eyes !
Here is a before and after :
Installation :
Just put the ".dds" file into your textures -> clutter folder. If you don't have these folders just create them ;)
Compatibility :
Everything !
