📋 About This Mod
This is a small mod that replaces the glowing textures on the ceiling of Falmer caves with aetherium rocks.
The vanilla textures are just overkill when using an enb, so I wanted to tone them down, but not too much.
I know there are other options for this texture out there, but for me personally, they remove too much of the effect.
I've always assumed the blue stuff in the caves was meant to be aetherium, so I went with that.
Available in 2K and 1K.
