📋 About This Mod

Fancy interior textures for a selection of Solitude's posh locations, all without affecting Solitude's exteriors (no cross over, or obtuse wood appearing in the wrong place). Credit to Antistar and his Clockwork mod for texture assets (modified).

Solitude texture packs have to deal with the fact that many of the textures are utilised by assets across multiple locations, both indoors and outdoors. This means that when you change something for an interior, it would then appear in stupid places outside.

To avoid this, this mod includes meshes with custom texture paths, specific to a set few locations like the Blue Palace and the Thalmor Embassy, to name a couple.

This texture pack affects:

  • []The Blue Palace

    []Thalmor Embassy

    []Vittoria Vici's house

    []Proudspire Manor

    It does not affect Proudspire castle and the poorer houses of Solitude, like the Winking Skeever.

    Compatible with:

    • []Window Shadows (because who doesn't use this, lol), just overwrite shadows with this mod.

      []JK Skyrim

    • Some other things

      No this doesn't include the paintings at the moment.
