📋 About This Mod

Description:

A simple and modest mod, but makes a welcomed dramatic difference in game. Roofs have been added to certain wall sections and towers, giving the Fort a more complete and imposing look.  Details include:

  • []Everything lines up correctly with great care.

    []The models have realistic roof supports on the inside, corbels to hold up the roof and tie it into the Dawnguard towers

    []The roof points have an iron top cap to repel rain.

    []A couple of brown banners fly at the top of the two main side towers to distinguish the fort.

    []The roofs are mapped to appropriate Riften textures, so you’ll see Riften wood and roof textures.

    []There is an optional file download that gives the roofs a custom slate texture.

Lore-friendly (maybe):

In the Lore, we’re told a Riften Jarl from many years ago, commissioned the construction of Fort Dawnguard to properly protect and “contain” his vampiric son. It makes logical sense to me that the roof architecture and texture align with the Riften signature iconic look.

Compatibility:

Compatible with the following mods -

  • []JK’s Fort Dawnguard (with included patch)

    []ClefJ’s Fort Dawnguard (with included patch).

    []Jk + ClefJ’s Combo czazior patch (with included patch)

    []Glorious Fort Dawnguard (with included patch).

    []Immersive Fort Dawnguard (no patch needed).
