📋 About This Mod

This is a 3D Grass overhaul of the Dragonborn DLC, Solstheim. The grasses are predominantly made from photos I took of Iceland's most common grasses. There are also ash covered forest plants found in the inner Solstheim forest. This mod does not affect the northern coast grasses which recycle grass types found from the mainland (ie snow grass, coastal grass, and volcanic tundra grass).

This mod requires the Cathedral - 3D Grass Library - Meshes file.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and manage load order easily.
  • If you use other grass mods, place this one after them to ensure Solstheim's grass is overwritten properly.
  • Check if your ENB or weather mods affect grass density — you may need to adjust ini settings for best visuals.
