📋 About This Mod
Description:
This is a retexture of shingle roofs and market stall tops throughout Whiuterun, Riften and Solitude. Wanted to give it a less "clean" look so i used this irregular structure. tinted the diffuse to have multiple variants, so there´ll be brown, grey and dark grey roofs made of wood or stone. The stall tops have an ancient nordic pattern from historical finds and fit Whiterun pretty well i think, given that many buildings have nordic carvings too. To get the complete look as seen in the pictures, get Skyland - Whiterun and overwrite it with my roofs. Also used Dawn of Skyrim for the images.
Resolution:
All textures have been made with 2K Diffuse and 2K Normal maps
Install:
- download with your prefered mod manager, install and overwrite when promt
