📋 About This Mod
Special thanks to all my Patrons and supporters, you are awesome!
Texture and mesh replacer for Torchbugs, Blissbugs (require CC - Saints&Seducers) and Jars (1K Resolution).
Ingredients will use the new textures.
The meshes have been modified to a reasonable degree, so there´s little to no performance impact.
While i was at it, i fixed the purple glass on Vanilla Jars (see last image) :)
Available versions in the FOMOD
- Vanilla Light / ENB Light
- 2 wings / 4 wings
- Sparkle / Default
- Vanilla Jars / TMD Jars (TMD mod required)
These changes have been made
- Subdivided just the body.
- Slimmer shape of the wings
- Antennae have been moved closer to the foremost part of the head (to better match RL images)
- Decided to add a second pair of animated wings (instead of carapaces). 25% smaller than main wings
(see images)
- includes fixed collision and wing position by wiseman303
Vanilla Torchbug Tris: 1270
My Torchbug Tris: 1714 (2 wings) - 1724 (4 wings)

If you want to keep it completely vanilla, check my older Butterfly replacer which
includes a vanilla version of the Torchbug.
But since there are various butterfly replacers by now, i decided to make the
high poly version of the Torchbug a separate mod
Screenshots are welcome and appreciated :)
Download with your preferred mod manager, install and overwrite when promted
Disable/uninstall the mod from your manager or remove the files from your Skyrim directory
Since this replacer has new meshes and textures, it is not compatible
with other Torchbug replacers or modifiers. It has to be loaded after conflicting mods.
Special thanks to StoneSpiralGaming for making the sparkling version.
Kittytail for the initial idea and the tutorial
TobesTobelle and Janissaries for testing
wiseman303 for their awesome critter fixes

⚠️ Cons
