📋 About This Mod

A simple SMIMification and (optional) retexture for the Dragonsreach/Jorrvaskr/Sovngarde drapery, to improve the low poly vanilla meshes and fix clipping tassels that are only visible from one side.

❖ Patches ❖

Some interior overhaul mods use the vanilla low poly drapery meshes as a base for their own customized versions, so their drapery will remain low poly until it's patched. If there's a mod you'd like patched just lmk and I'll add it no problem.
