📋 About This Mod

Low poly version of SMIM windmill sails - NO ESP.

The original SMIM mod is required.

Overwrite all other mods that use the same models.

The original sails model has 7. 680 tris, the low poly sails have 192 tris (2. 5% of the original)

The mod affects all the farm windmills and the Solitude Windmill.

The fan and sails models in this version are 1. 5 bigger than the original SMIM model like in executor32's mod, SMIM Windmills Resized.

If you don't use DynDOLOD the bigger fan will clip into the side of a house at Katla's farm, for that you can use the fix here Katla's Farm Sails Reangled.

If you do use DynDOLOD thre's no need for the fix.

Added Improved Solitude Windmill patch

Added Windmills of Skyrim - Unique Windmills with Colourful Sails patch - the fan and sails are bigger than in the original, load after one of the main files

Also check out the optimized SIMIM Chains here

My goal is to reduce the polycount of these meshes as much as possible while still retaining their original shape.

The optimized models will give you increased performance with minimal impact on visual quality.

I do this for the people that want to increase their fps, run their PC cooler, play SKYRIM VR

or simply do not have a PC powerful enough to run the original version of the mods.
