📋 About This Mod
Uses models from Skyrim 3D Signs to replace the generic general goods and alchemy shop signs that were left untouched by the original mod.
This patch adds two missing signs (SignGeneralGoods01 and SignAlchemyShop01) to Skyrim 3D Signs, replacing them with Whiterun-style signs using farmhouse woodpost textures. It's a small, niche fix for players who use Skyrim 3D Signs and encounter these untouched signs in modded towns like Ivarstead. The author notes it's a 'shoddy patch' but functional.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fills a real gap in Skyrim 3D Signs—those two generic signs stick out like a sore thumb in modded towns.
- Lightweight and safe: only overwrites a couple of vanilla statics, so it won't mess with your load order.
- Works with road sign replacers and other mods, so you can stack it without worry.
⚠️ Cons
- Author admits it's a 'shoddy patch' and not a proper fix—it reuses Whiterun signs with farmhouse textures, which might not match perfectly.
- Only affects two signs, so if you're not using mods that place those specific signs, you won't notice any difference.
- If you use other sign mods like WizKiD signs, this patch might be redundant or cause conflicts (though author says it's harmless).
For Skyrim modders who use Skyrim 3D Signs and want to eliminate every last generic sign, especially in towns like Ivarstead or Karthwasten. Skip if you don't care about those two signs or if you already use a comprehensive sign overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install with MO2 or Vortex for easy management—manual extraction works but is more hassle.
- Since load order doesn't matter, you can place it anywhere, but keeping it near Skyrim 3D Signs is tidy.
- If you use other sign mods, test in a town like Ivarstead to see which signs win out.
