📋 About This Mod
It's Firewood. In 8K. You're Welcome.
Yes, I made an 8K firewood mod. No, I don't have a problem. You have a problem. Your problem is blurry firewood, and I'm here to fix it.
Every piece of firewood in Skyrim — from lonely logs to massive piles — has been completely rebuilt from scratch. I even edited the meshes so the firewood gets its own unique normal map instead of awkwardly sharing bark textures with half the trees in Tamriel. Because that's the kind of thing that keeps me up at night.
You'll chop it. You'll carry it. You'll stack it outside your Hearthfire home. And now, finally, it'll look good doing it.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 2,548 endorsements and over 115k downloads.
- Unique normal map means firewood actually looks like wood, not reused bark.
- Resolution options from 1K to 8K let you balance quality and performance.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be fully compatible with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
- 8K textures are heavy and could hurt performance on lower-end systems.
- Only affects firewood—if you're looking for broader texture overhauls, this is a niche pick.
For Skyrim players who notice the little details and want firewood to look realistic without overhauling everything. If you're a texture perfectionist or a screenshot enthusiast, this is a solid addition. Skip if you want gameplay changes or if you're on a low-end rig—stick to the 1K or 2K versions.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Choose the resolution that matches your VRAM—8K is for high-end rigs, 1K is safe for most.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and easily switch between resolutions.
- If you're using other texture mods, load this one after them to ensure firewood textures take priority.
