📋 About This Mod
ABOUT:
This mod like my other works is based as always on the vacuous elements of the game which Bethesda left unattended.
We have new locks, and a small fishery in the Grove which takes advantage of the running Salmon of the waterways, as well as other small industry features to go with the forge works, and lumber mill; as well as the beautification of Riverwood, and practical add-on's befitting a Nordic life.
*Please Note this mod has been made with Mathy's work in mind. I highly recommend you use his mods.
Riverwood Grove is another overhaul mod for The People Of Skyrim 2 V10 users but this version is standalone and compatible with Leaf Rest. Patch provided in the download area. TPOS 2 V10 has its own version packed in the TPOS 2 V10 installer.
You will need to generate your own lod's for trees and objects or use the default vanilla from the download area.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 541 endorsements and over 13k downloads.
- Fills a niche by adding functional industry to Riverwood, not just cosmetic changes.
- Provides a patch for Leaf Rest, making it a good choice for players using that popular mod.
⚠️ Cons
- Not compatible with any other Riverwood mod except Leaf Rest, so you'll have to choose carefully.
- Requires manual LOD generation or using vanilla defaults, which can be a hassle for some users.
- Last updated in 2021, so it may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods.
For Skyrim players who want to enhance Riverwood with practical, lore-friendly additions like a fishery and improved industry. Also for fans of The People Of Skyrim 2 or Leaf Rest who want a compatible Riverwood overhaul. Skip if you prefer purely cosmetic overhauls or don't want to deal with LOD generation.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use Leaf Rest, grab the patch from the download area and follow the load order provided.
- For TPOS 2 V10 users, use the version included in the TPOS 2 installer instead of the standalone.
- Generate LODs with a tool like DynDOLOD for best results, or use the vanilla defaults if you're not comfortable with that.
