📋 About This Mod

Make your Hrothgar a home with upholstery so cozy you'll want to break your vow of silence. Just because you've consigned yourself to a life of bleak asceticism doesn't mean you can't have nice things!

Replaces upholstery on High Hrothgar beds, benches and chairs, I SMIMed the headboard slab on the bed too since it needed it. Low to mid poly with 2k textures, optional BOS color variance.

The stone frames will use whatever High Hrothgar textures you have installed, screenshots show Skyland - High Hrothgar.

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires BOS (Base Object Swapper) for the color variance feature, which is an extra dependency.
  • No screenshots or detailed install instructions in the description, so you're flying blind on the visual result.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you use the BOS color variance, make sure Base Object Swapper is installed and loaded before this mod in your mod manager.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to avoid overwriting vanilla files manually.
  • Check the mod's posts tab for user screenshots to see the new look before committing.
