Outlandish Stalhrim
Description
This mod retextures the Stalhrim armour and weapons from the Dragonborn DLC. The aim of this mod was to make the Stalhrim more pleasant to look at, and for it to be more reminisce of actual ice. To do this, I have darkened the leather for contrast, then greyed out the blue and added a reflective cubemap for proper iciness.
All pieces of equipment have been retextured (heavy, light, shield, weapons) and it works for both genders. The textures are the same size as the official HD texture pack (Mostly 2K).

Optional files
Better Shaped Weapons Patch: Adds compatibility with LeanWolf's Better Shaped Weapons mod. The swords will be more realistically shaped and retain the altered rendering values introduced in this mod.
Heavy Armoury Patch: Tweaks the new Stalhrim weapons added in PrivateEye's Heavy Armoury mod to have the same rendering values as the ones included in this mod.
Miscellaneous files
Blue Cubemap: Makes the Stalhrim much more blue, as it was in the vanilla game.
Standalone version called Ice Stalhrim by ntn9713c.
Compatibility
Will be compatible with any mods that alter Stalhrim stats or the like, as this mod only replaces the meshes and textures.
Should be mostly compatible with mods that change the armour meshes, however the lighting may be off slightly.
Stalhrim weapon mods are compatible, but they will look different to the ones in this mod. Mods that add Stalhrim weapons will probably require a patch, as the meshes in this mod were heavily altered to appear much more reflective, and other mods may not do the same.
Mods which replace the glacierice_e.dds cubemap will be overwritten. You can choose not to overwrite this file, but the equipment will look much different.
Installation
Copy the contents of the archive folder to your Skyrim\Data folder. That's it! Alternatively, you can download with NMM and activate it through that.
Permissions
Please don't redistribute this mod. If you wish to use these textures in your own mod, please let me know beforehand.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust—2,795 endorsements and 303k downloads show this port is widely used.
- Bringing billyro's classic Stalhrim redesign to SSE is a must for fans of the original.
- Simple port with no extra dependencies—just drop it in and go.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019—might have issues with the latest Skyrim SE patches.
- Purely cosmetic—if you wanted new stats or enchantments, this isn't it.
For Skyrim SE players who loved the original Outlandish Stalhrim mod and want that same look on the Special Edition. Also for anyone who thinks vanilla Stalhrim looks too plain and wants a more rugged, fantasy-style redesign. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes—this is purely visual.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install—it's a simple drag-and-drop.
- Make sure you have the Dragonborn DLC, since Stalhrim gear is tied to Solstheim content.
- If you're not seeing the new textures, check your load order—this mod should load after any other Stalhrim overhauls.
