📋 About This Mod
Admittedly I don't know anything really about doing this, just kinda removed most of the main meshes stuff in nifskope except for the bstrishapes, so they won't be like super optimized lod files, but considering how few forts there are in skyrim, it shouldn't really make a difference. But I tested it myself, and I can see them perfectly from far away.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (222k) shows it's widely used by the community.
- Solves a real visual annoyance—tower pop-in—for DynDOLOD users.
- Lightweight utility mod that does one job well.
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers towers; walls need a separate optional file, so you have to grab both.
- Requires DynDOLOD setup and the original mod, so it's not a standalone fix.
- No updates since January 2023—might not be compatible with newer DynDOLOD versions.
For Skyrim modders who use Natural Forts of Skyrim and DynDOLOD and want to eliminate tower pop-in. If you don't use DynDOLOD or that mod, this isn't for you. It's a niche utility for a specific setup.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Run DynDOLOD after installing these LOD files to regenerate your LODs properly.
- Make sure you have the optional wall LOD file from the original mod, or you'll still see pop-in on walls.
- If you're using a mod manager, install this after the original mod to ensure file overwrites are correct.
