📋 About This Mod

Check the comparison screenshots on the images’ section to help you choose a variant!! :O

And be aware…

Even after tweaking many incredibly stretched spots… the result is not like... amazing; it is an improvement to help you throw up less times when passing by this entrance… lol

At least now, during normal gameplay, you won’t notice anything wrong (or extreme).

Before this fix, you could stand several meters away from this “door” and still see its corruption xD

INSTALLATION:

-CHOOSE ONLY ONE MAIN FILE AFTER CHECKING THE SCREENSHOTS.

-INSTALL WITH YOUR FAVORITE MOD MANAGER OR MANUALLY.

COMPATIBILITY:

-Compatible with ELFX (just overwrite the mesh).

-Compatible with "SkyHaven HD by CleverCharff" (just overwrite).

-Not compatible with other mods which include the same .nifs or textures. Choose which one you prefer.

More details (optional reading):

Uhmmmm… this meshes are THE WORST!!… EVER!!!!… (more specifically the UV sucks).

In fact they have such bad UV mapping that tweaking it while using vanilla style textures (with black sections) doesn’t work well for the entrance surrounding the big head (the head itself doesn’t have this problem)…

So… You need a texture where the design covers everything to be able to stretch some nodes freely (without getting into black spots).

The only texture I could find with those properties and with enough resolution for this massive mess was CleverCharff’s (maybe not everyone’s cup of tea... but for the reasons I mentioned I included it here... and also because he grants permission).

Please… someone with more knowledge remake this whole thing!! That would be the perfect solution UwU

CREDITS:

Anamorfus for letting me use one of his meshes.

Clevercharff for giving permission to reupload his textures.

IconicDeath for giving "unlimited freedom" regarding the AI upscaled textures.
