📋 About This Mod
After my first "ALT - RowBoat - The Gislinge" which changes the RowBoat mesh, here is the new one.
I've wanted to change the appearance of the Markarth forge for a very long time because I always found the "Farm" type architecture surrounded by old stones weird.

[]Simply change the roof mesh of the forge to a new one.[/]
[]Smoke from the forge can exit through the window, rather than through the roof.[/]
[]Version (B) for Golden Dwemer Pipeworks Redone [/]
[]Version (C) for Dwemer Metals Retexture SE (Thx Xavbio !)[/]
[]No ESP, Safe to install/uninstall anytimes[/]
- Jk's Skyrim has already changed this by stacking multiple meshes, but in case you want to try this alternative version, I put a Patch (flagged ESL) in the
optional files
- Dawn of Skyrim, little patch that moves the banner.
