📋 About This Mod

This mod is a mesh remover for icefloes. I am using an empty BSXFlags to avoid the red triangle error and SSE CreationKit Fixes crashes. Just like BSFadeNode mesh removers, every branch is removed in NifSkope except one. This mod also includes a texture remover. Having both the meshes and the textures of the icefloes increases compatibility with ice mods. You should be able to overwrite this mod without losing its effect. There is a similar mod to this one on Nexus, but my textures are properly resized so you will save VRAM.

Installation

This mod can be installed and uninstalled without side effects.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Remove Icefloes is a compact environmental mod for Skyrim that eliminates icefloes by replacing their meshes with empty ones, using BSXFlags. It also includes transparent 4x4 textures. With 246 endorsements and 5,640 downloads, it's a niche utility for players who want cleaner water surfaces without ice chunks.

✨ Key Features

Includes transparent 4x4 textures as part of the mod.
Simple mesh replacement approach, no scripts or heavy resources.
Lightweight and focused purely on environmental cleanup.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community-approved with 246 endorsements and 5,640 downloads.
  • Does exactly what it says: gets rid of icefloes for a cleaner look.
  • Uses a simple mesh replacement method, so it's lightweight and unlikely to cause performance hits.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in August 2020, so it may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions or mods that alter water/ice.
  • Only removes icefloes; if you want other ice features removed, this won't help.
  • Potential conflicts with other mods that modify the same meshes or add new icefloes.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who find icefloes visually annoying and want a quick, simple fix to remove them. If you're a completionist or immersion-focused player who wants a cleaner arctic environment, this is for you. Skip if you want more comprehensive ice overhaul or if you're on a modlist that already handles ice removal.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Place the mod in your load order after any mods that modify water or ice meshes to ensure it takes effect.
  • If you use a mod manager, install it manually or via manager and check for conflicts with other mesh replacers.
  • Test in a location with icefloes (like the Sea of Ghosts) to confirm removal works as expected.
