Notes
I loved the design and always wanted to bring it to Skyrim.
The large ruin door is used 14 times ingame, for example in Bleakfalls Barrow, Valthume, Skuldafn and more.
Besides the new mesh and new textures (not reused ones from my other doors) I wanted to add some custom animations to it.
After the odyssey of adding animations to my mod Fortified and Animated Fort Doors it went a lot better this time.
There were some minor quirks which I figured out a lot quicker than last time.
I am even thinking about another door with a really complex animation setup for the Dwemer ruins now, but I'm not sure how to implement it yet.
Don't hesitate to contact me if you need help with animations on your own mod!
Let my mods door mesh and textures overwrite the files from other mods.
