📋 About This Mod

Replaces the werewolf totem skull with a high poly 3D Wolf Skull scan.

NjvQo3KmcJs


It's quite high poly so there might be a performance hit with low end PCs, however there is only one of these things in the game and it will most likely be in your inventory all the time.

The original model has ;

Triangles: 457. 6k

Vertices: 228. 8k

I think my version is below 10k. (can't remember)

Here take a look at the impressive original model.

I edited the textures and removed the words too :)

Compressed in BC1 and BC7 with mipmaps (i hope, just let me know if there's any problems)

I also added some custom feather meshes to the skull too, and some 2k hagraven feathers from Praedy's Repositry make it's similar to the original.

Intallation:

use your mod manager.

Thank you and enjoy.
