Q&A
Q: Why did you make this mod?
A: Because both CWE and WEA are awesome and I want them both.
This patch relocates part of the harbor from Bjs_336's Windhelm Exterior Altered to the opposite riverbank and removes a stair from Surjamte's Capital Windhelm Expansion, enabling both mods to work together. It requires a specific load order and is aimed at players who want to combine these two popular Windhelm overhauls.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solves a real compatibility headache—now you can run two top-tier Windhelm mods together (250 endorsements).
- Simple patch, no new assets or scripts, just smart placement tweaks.
- Author explains exactly why it exists: both mods are awesome and deserve to coexist.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires strict load order—get it wrong and you'll see clipping or missing geometry.
- Only useful if you already use both Windhelm Exterior Altered and Capital Windhelm Expansion.
- Last updated in 2022, so it may not be tested with the latest versions of those mods.
For Skyrim modders who love Windhelm and want to stack Capital Windhelm Expansion with Windhelm Exterior Altered without breaking the city. Skip if you only use one of those mods—this patch does nothing for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Follow the load order exactly: WEA first, then WindhelmSSE.esp, then this patch last.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to lock the load order and avoid accidental reordering.
- If you see floating objects, double-check that both required mods are installed and up to date.
