Xenius Character Enhancement
- Complete -
by Xenius
Description
A compilation of my work on enhancing the visual quality of both playable and non-playable characters in 'The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition'. It covers skin, eyes, war paint and more.
I'm not sure if I still have my old comparison screenshots, if I find them I will add them.
This is a conversion of the original mod from 2011. Unlike the one I uploaded half a year ago, this one actually works.
There was also another conversion done by "WitchMom", but it does not include everything.
Also I am planning to convert my other mods to Special Edition in the near future.
