📋 About This Mod
Hello! First and foremost I would like to say please check the credits section! This wouldn't have been possible without the original authors and creators! I was on the hunt for a retexture set for dwarven architecture, clutter, etc. and Vanilla Remastered (Ultimate) - Textures Upscaled and Reworked by Waqas131294 hit all the right bells for me! There were a few changes I was hoping to make, however, so this project was born. It was a shitton more challenging than I thought, as this was my first time working with alpha channels.
- Utilizes Vanilla Remastered (Ultimate) as a baseline.
- Tweaked the diffuses to match the color scheme of Dwemer Armors and Weapons Retexture SE by Xavbio, along with a other adjustments.
- Covers ALL vanilla and DLC dwarven metals EXCEPT for weapons, staves, armor, and circlets.
- This was designed to be used ALONGSIDE Xavbio's work!
- Available in 4K and 2K resolutions. Files are titled Quality and Performance.
- A consistency patch for SMIM is available in the Optional Files section.
NOTE - There are 3 meshes included in both main files. These involve cubemap modifications to dwemer floor lamps so the trio all use bronze_e.dds, whereas prior, they either used none, or used chitin_e.dds (see image section for a better comparison). For 2 of the lamps, they originated from USSEP, and contain the fixes from there.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Nearly 30k downloads show it's got a solid following
- Built on a trusted baseline (Vanilla Remastered) so quality is likely consistent
- Small but active community (94 endorsements) means it's been tested by real players
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Vanilla Remastered (Ultimate) as a dependency, so you need that mod installed first
- Only covers dwarven textures – if you want other races' overhauls, this won't help
- Compatibility risk with other texture mods that touch the same files – load order matters
For Skyrim players who love dwarven ruins and want a cohesive, remastered look without overhauling everything. If you're already using Vanilla Remastered, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you're not into dwarven aesthetics or don't want to deal with dependencies.
