📋 About This Mod
After a long break from Skyrim modding, I've decided to return with a remaster of my mountain textures. Using real stone photographs and 3D scans.
This was intended to be an update of my other mod, but I decided to re-release it.
This comes in 2 colours:
-
[]
Darker, more Brownish in colour
[
]A harsher, colder Grey
Resolutions
8K - Ultra fidelity
4K - High quality, no performance issues for mid-high end systems
2K - Medium quality, better performance
1K - Ultra performance
Designed to be used with Majestic Mountains or Better Dynamic Snow v2. 11. 0, but not necessary.
PARALLAX HERE
- Just install the parallax maps file, and meshes from somewhere else, and you're good to go! But please note that it will not be perfect.Check out my other mods here

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 453 endorsements and over 16k downloads, so you know it's solid.
- Gives you four resolution options from 8K down to 1K, so you can balance looks and performance.
- Works with Majestic Mountains, so you can stack it with other mountain overhauls without conflicts.
⚠️ Cons
- No recent updates since December 2022, so it might not be patched for the latest Skyrim versions.
- 8K textures will hammer your VRAM—make sure your GPU can handle it before going big.
- Parallax support might require extra setup or specific ENB settings to actually see the effect.
For Skyrim players who want their mountains to look photorealistic and are willing to trade some performance for visual fidelity. If you're using Majestic Mountains and want a texture upgrade, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you're on a low-end rig or prefer a more stylized look.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Pick the 2K version if you're on a mid-range GPU—8K will crush your frame rate.
- If you're using Majestic Mountains, install this after it so the textures overwrite correctly.
- For parallax to work, make sure you have an ENB that supports parallax and enable it in the ENB settings.
