Initial Release - Argonian DG Vampire Eye Replacer.
Load the Mod archive using tannin42's Mod Organizer for optimal results.
Can also be used with NMM (if you wish).
Drag the textures folder from the archive into the data folder in your Skyrim installation's root.
Conflicts with any mods that change the Argonian Vampire Eye Textures.
Will work fine with anything else.
XCE and XCE - Dawnguard By Xenius, now found as a part of Total Character Makeover - Since this mod is based on his textures, it fits perfectly.
Skyrim's Ultimate Eye Meshes Ruhmastered SSE - Adds in the glow effect for the vampire eyes, as well as normal Khajiit and Argonians (not added in this mod so as to not conflict)
Mod Organizer 2 By Tannin & maintained by LePresidente - The best mod loader ever created. Seriously, Give it a whirl; its pretty boss.
Thanks to Xenius for XCE!
Thanks to Bethesda for making all of the Elder Scrolls games so awesome; lets hope that when TES: VI comes out, PC users will get the DLC at the same time as the console dudes.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 442 endorsements and nearly 14k downloads.
- Fills a real gap—Argonians get the cool vampire eyes they were missing.
- 2.0 update brings sharper textures with ESRGAN upscaling.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019, so it might be outdated for newer Skyrim versions.
- Conflicts with any other mod that touches Argonian vampire eye textures.
- Only affects Argonian eyes—if you play other races, this won't do anything for you.
For Argonian players who want the full vampire experience with proper glowing eyes. If you're a completionist or roleplayer who hates that beast races got shafted, this is a must-have. Skip if you don't play Argonians or if you're using a comprehensive eye overhaul that already covers them.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use Mod Organizer to keep your textures organized and avoid overwriting other mods.
- If you're using Total Character Makeover, install this after it so the Argonian eyes get replaced properly.
- Check for conflicts with other eye mods—this only touches Argonian vampire eyes, so it's safe with most setups.
