    Overview

    A straightforward, no-hassle landscape improvement mod: .ini file ONLY. Integrates under-utilised assets and alchemy ingredients into the wider world of Skyrim. Mod replaces repetitive base game flora and repetitive objects in (mostly southern) Solstheim with:

    • [](more) fire craters and flaming rock debris

      [](more) burning and smoking pine trees

      [](more) burning and smoking fallen logs

      [](more) burning and smoking bushes

      [](more) mushrooms

      [](more) tombstones

      []Flame stalks, screaming maw, thorn hook, rot scale and root weeds (Light Placer / ENB light ready)

      []Harrada root, bloodgrass, spiddal stick, and dying spiddal stick (requires The Cause)

      []Aloe vera plant (requires Skyrim v1. 6. 1130)

      Mod also creates a variety of different scenes, including:

      • []A shipwreck (credits Solstheim Cataclysm)

        []Bridge to Tel Mithryn (credits Tel Mithryn Bridge)

        []Plinth shrines worship

        []Burning carts

        []Large Daedric statue atop Highpoint Tower (requires Daedric Shrines - All in One). The .ini is designed so users can choose one of six daedric statues (Vaermina, Mephala, Hermaeus Mora, Molag Bal, Azura or Meridia). Image shows Vaermina

        Configuration

        • Completely configurable; even modular. Users can disable any element in the .ini. Users can also reduce frequency, alter size and / or move any object. Knowledge of Base Object Swapper is helpful.

          Installation and Uninstallation

          Use the mod manager of your choice to install. Or manually (in your Data folder). To uninstall, remove with mod manager. My understanding

  • Brings a unique visual twist to Solstheim's landscape.

  • The description is vague—no specifics on which plants are changed or how many.
  • Potential conflicts with other mods that alter Solstheim's flora, especially if they don't use BOS.
🎯 Is This For You?
