📋 About This Mod
Hi everyone!
I love the Farmhouse Chimneys mod but I've never been able to find a texture that sits well with the chimney crown (the bricks at the top of the stack) and so I decided to remove it and replace it with something that I thought fitted the Nordic feel of Skyrim a bit better. I've created a number of different crowns that you'll now see on your adventures. There are tiled ones (in the style of the walkways you see in villages), ones with boards (like the shack chimneys, only less likely to let the rain in) and chimneys without any crowns at all. There is also a NVFH version. There are also ivy variants with different levels of growth on them. Seasons support will be coming soon too.
Installation:
1) Install Farmhouse Chimneys
2) Install Base Object Swapper
3) Install High Quality Ivy Replacer - Base Object Swapper - Seasons of Skyrim
3b) I highly recommend using Rudy Fix for Smoke alongside this mod.
4) Install this mod and overwrite when prompted.
Thanks for checking out the mod!

- Simple mesh replacer that adds visual variety without gameplay changes.
- Lightweight and easy to install, perfect for modding beginners.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects farmhouse chimneys, so impact is limited to one architectural detail.
- May conflict with other mods that alter farmhouse meshes or textures.

For Skyrim players who want to add subtle visual variety to the game world without overhauling everything. If you're a modder looking for a quick immersion boost, this is for you. Skip if you want major changes or if you're using a comprehensive farmhouse overhaul that might conflict.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a mesh replacer, make sure it loads after any mods that change farmhouse models to ensure it takes effect.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, you can preview the meshes before installing to see the chimney variants.
- Check for conflicts with other mesh replacers using tools like xEdit or the mod manager's conflict detection.
