📋 About This Mod

Ice Wraiths Retexture 2k

Brought to SSE

Link to the original mod

- Beware the bite of frost.




With permission from HXP, I merely brought his retexture of the Ice Wraith to Special Edition for more convenience as there was no retexture for this creature on the nexus.

Features:

The Ice Wraiths were completey retextured and added with a little bit more glowing so they will also stand out more and have a little bit more 3D effect. Colours and contrast have been improved.

As an optional file you will find a red glowing version of the Ice Wraiths, see the screenshots for more info.

This is totally lore friendly since there are no new or any weird texture added.

Installation:

Copy and paste into your Skyrim directory or use your favorite mod manager: download and install.

Credit goes to HXP the original author of this mod. Also credit to Bethesda Softworks for their games and assets, and to Nexus of course.
