📋 About This Mod

Hi everyone,

First things first, a huge thank you to Yuril for allowing me to use his meshes from FYX - 3D Farmhouse Walkway in this mod. For me, as I'm guessing for most of you, too, the FYX series is an essential part of my load order. Long may they continue! Please give Yuril some well-deserved kudos.

So, what's this mod all about? For a while now, it's bugged me that the posts on walkways are almost flush to the ground with ropes wrapped around the very top of them. This is especially noticeable on walkways that are bridges. It feels to me that a swift kick or tug on the rope and it'd slip over the post, and the walkway would begin to fall apart. With that in mind, I've lengthened the posts so the ropes are wrapped further down. This is more in keeping with how they are wrapped on jetties and other walkways (second floor of farmhouses, guard posts). The height of the posts is also varied to give a more realistic hand-built feel.

Check out the gallery for a clearer idea of what the mod does.

Installation:

Download, install, and endorse FYX - 3D Farmhouse Walkway.

Then download this mod and overwrite when prompted. If you use SMIM, you'll likely be prompted to overwrite SMIM meshes.

As always, thanks for checking out the mod!
