📋 About This Mod

Improved Bridges of Skyrim

They are a few mods on the Nexus which try to improve Bridges in Skyrim.

Since these mods change things in a lot of locations, there is a lot of potential for conflict with other mods.

The problem often results from Navmesh and landscapes overwrites of these mods, because these records are for the whole cell.

To fix this problem, this mod uses no Navmesh and landscapes edits!

Question? How to make a mod which changes bridges without changing the Navmesh, wouldn't NPCs just get stuck?

No! Because this mod uses the original Bridge or a compatible mesh in ever location, but adds elements to it and uses Skyrim's Texture swapping System to change ever bridge as much as possible.
