📋 About This Mod
Since my PC is about 10 years old and it cannot handle that well these amazing weapons by JaySuS. So I decided to simply resize textures by half (1024x1024 and some 512x1024) with DDSOpt. And here you go, it is not much but it will help people who also might be experiencing issues with high resolution textures that JaySuS uses. Installation: 1. In case you did not installed JaySuS Swords mod yet, go get it right here - http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/1002 2. Just copy Data folder to your Skyrim root directory Credits: -JaySuS for making these outstanding weapons and giving me permission to upload this

For Skyrim players who love JaySuS Swords but struggle with performance on lower-end PCs. If you're running the original mod and notice stuttering or low FPS, this texture downgrade can help. Skip if you have a powerful rig or prefer visual fidelity over performance.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original JaySuS Swords mod installed first, as this only replaces its textures.
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Vortex, install this after the original mod to ensure the low-res textures overwrite.
- Test in a heavy area like Whiterun market to see if FPS improves; if not, consider other performance mods.
