Psychosteve's Stone of Barenziah | V 2. 0 _______________________________________________________________________________
Here it is ! The 2. 0 version of my "Stone of Barenziah" texture mod.
I made a large collection of 768 x 768 textures (that's not really HD but it will
be a little bit better than the original 512 x 512 textures). I tried to keep the
original design but with more effects and textures (wood, metal grids, velvet...etc).
Enjoy !!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 906 endorsements

- Simple texture swap that doesn't affect gameplay
⚠️ Cons

For Skyrim players who want a fresh look at the Stone of Barenziah and the crown, especially those who collect quest items. If you're a completionist or just like visual polish, this is a quick add. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or if you play on Special Edition without compatibility patches.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, you may need to port the textures or find a compatible version, as this mod predates SE.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to easily install and uninstall the mod without messing up your data folder.
- Since it's just textures, you can safely overwrite other mods that affect the same items – just make sure this mod loads last if you want its look.
