📋 About This Mod
Ever wanted more ruins in your game? Me too!
Incredibly lightweight
// MY AIO VERSION OF THIS MOD IS OUT WITH MORE LOCATIONS - SUPPORT IS DROPPED FOR THIS PAGE //
This is just a very simple visual addition to the road near Riverwood, showing signs of an old fort from a bygones era. This is entirely visual only and is incredibly compatible from all of my testing. If anything behaves weird or there is some incompatibility I have not found feel free to let me know! (Just don't use imgur for links bc im in the UK lmao). I have taken a lot of inspiration from the work that the Level Designers for Enderal did for this so those of you who have played Enderal might feel a bit more at home here.
This relies entirely on Navcuts to keep compatibility high and has had occlusion added to help with the draw call hell that is Riverwood. There are only three patches necessary and its only to prevent some clipping.
First install my other mod Whiterun City Walls - Collision Redone
Install as any other mod with a mod manager of your choice
!! Make sure to run your LODs again !!
