📋 About This Mod
Description
The braziers outside the Riften Temple of Mara are placed on a ledge with an awkward gap between the back half of their base and the floor.
This mod modifies the temple mesh to add foundations (blocks) under the braziers and remove this gap.
Features
Mesh files and an optional esp for Lux Orbis users.
The braziers themselves are not altered by this mod.
The added foundations will match the textures of the ledge used in your load order.
A small seam will be visible on close views depending on your Riften textures.
I have included Vanilla, ELFX and Major Cities Mesh Overhaul compatible meshes.
Installation
Download the version you prefer and install it with your mod manager.
Overwrite other mods that include rttempleplaza01.nif or rttempleplazastairs01.nif if using the Major Cities Mesh Overhaul version.
Compatibility
Compatible with Lux Orbis with an included optional file.
Credits
Use of the ELFX mesh was granted by anamorfus. Thank you!
Lux Orbis patch created by TobesTobelle and granted by GGUNIT. Thank you!

This small cosmetic mod adds foundations under the braziers outside the Temple of Mara in Riften, fixing a visual clipping issue. It has 200 endorsements and was last updated in August 2022, making it a niche but appreciated fix for Skyrim players who notice such details.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tidy little fix for a common visual annoyance—braziers floating or clipping into the ground.
- Respectable 200 endorsements show other players found it useful.
- Lightweight and focused; does exactly what it says without extra bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects one location in Riften, so its impact is very limited.
- May conflict with other mods that alter the Riften temple area or its braziers.
- Last updated in 2022, so it might not be actively maintained for newer game versions.
For Skyrim players who notice and care about small environmental details like floating braziers. If you're a perfectionist who wants Riften to look more polished, this is a quick fix. Skip if you want gameplay changes or broader visual overhauls—this is purely cosmetic and very localized.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage this mod easily.
- Load order shouldn't matter much for a simple mesh/texture replacer, but place it after other Riften overhaul mods to ensure it takes effect.
- Check the area in-game after installation to confirm the foundations appear correctly; if they don't, try moving the mod later in your load order.
