📋 About This Mod
Classic Coal for Skyrim's Forges
The vanilla charcoal piles never quite looked right — more like burnt wood scraps than proper coal ready for the forge. This mod remakes them into classic, recognizable coal piles that fit the blacksmith aesthetic.
Built from scratch in Substance Designer with final assembly in Photoshop. A small detail that makes every smithy feel a little more authentic.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,276 endorsements and 147k downloads
- Multiple resolution options let you balance quality and performance
- Substance Designer-built textures ensure high-quality, consistent look
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects coal piles—if you want broader texture overhauls, this is niche
- 8K textures will hammer VRAM on lower-end cards, so stick to 2K or 4K if you're not on a high-end rig
- Last updated in 2021, so it may not be compatible with the latest game patches or other texture mods
For players who want a more classic, realistic look for coal piles without overhauling the entire game's textures. Perfect for texture enthusiasts who appreciate Substance Designer quality. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or a full texture pack.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, you can preview the different resolution options before installing to see which fits your performance needs.
- For 7 Days to Die, remember to disable EAC if you're using mods, or the game won't load them.
- Start with the 2K version if you're unsure about performance—it looks great and runs smoothly on most systems.
