📋 About This Mod

Sancre Tor was a mod that was rolled into Legacy of the Dragonborn. The navmesh in the Sancre Tor prisons is very broken, and the navmesh for the other Sancre Tor cells isn't great. There are navmesh islands everywhere that prevent NPCs from walking down the hallways. Half of the cell does not have navmesh at all. This mod recreates all navmesh for every Sancre Tor interior and exterior cell by hand. This mod regenerates all navmesh for every Sancre Tor cell by hand, generates cover, and finalizes each cell correctly.

It also completely remakes the external worldspace navmesh by hand, fixes the edge links that were not finalized, and addresses the 309 unused navmesh islands floating everywhere.

Compatibility

This mod edits loading doors and navmesh in Sancre Tor. Should load after any mod that edits those. There probably aren't any and this is likely compatible with everything.

Installation

MO2 or Vortex

Load after LotD

Thanks to ICA for LotD and feel free to include this if you want.
