WHAT FREAK'S FLORAL SOLSTHEIM DOES?
The biggest issue with Solstheim to me and many others over the years was the lack of modern grass mods that were available. However, thanks to FFS this changes. As its brother FFF provides users with a feeling of immersion like no other, FFS delivers the same feeling in a different style.
Two of the biggest contributors to this being possible is (as we should all know by now) the brilliance of Dr Jacopos cathedral assets. As well as Code1k's mod Unique Solstheim grass which allows us to remove pine forest records from Solstheim.
By combing various plants and grass types, I am able to provide you with a never before seen look to Solstheim, the main goal is to maintain the dead and ashy look as Bethesda intended yet add a little bit of spice as you have seen with FFF. If you haven't played the Dragon Born DLC, you will absolutely want to now! And if you have? This will give it a completely new experience!
