📋 About This Mod
Higher poly meshes for the tomb and horn of Jurgen Windcaller. Vanilla texture paths remain, so the new meshes are compatible with all vanilla based retextures.
The optional MM's Jurgen Windcaller HD Patch includes meshes for the horn that have adjusted texture UVs to work along with MM's retexture. Have the patch files overwrite the main files.
Compatibility:
This mod replaces only the mesh files, no plugin/ESP included. No textures are included in the download, your own load order will determine the actual textures used.
Installation:
Use your preferred mod manager to install as per normal.
