📋 About This Mod

As Nimbli Bimbli doesn't have time to work on this mod, I took over maintaining it for SSE. Original mod can be found here.

This mods changes the appearance of road signs to a more weathered and more immersive look instead of sterile well maintained road sign posts that were created yesterday and are immune to the effects of the environment over time. At the same time it still provides readable road signs.

Beside overhauling all existing posts it adds new ones at logical places throughout Skyrim (not including the DLCs yet).

Many of the posts differ in design, have additional vegetation or small clutter added to them or around them to enrich the experience of playing the game. In snowy environments the road signs are subject to snow shader effects.

As this mod moves forwards the variations in design will be expanded and changed as well as compatibility patches for conflicting placements will be provided. Also there are a few places left that could benefit from additional road signs and of course patches for mods that add new ones for new locations.

  • []Install with the mod manager of your choice or manual. []Sorting with LOOT should be fine.  []Manually sorting: place after all other mods that might change the position of road signs or add new ones. (e.g. after town or village mods). 

Compatibly patches always work with the most recent version unless stated otherwise.

]CLARALUX SSE - comes with its own compatibility. When using it, I recommend turning "Road Sign Lights" off for the best immersive effect and to prevent clipping with added vegetation and clutter. [*]Cutting Room Floor - compatibility patch available as an optional download.
