This mod combines various smaller mods that primarily focus on fixing and/or improving existing meshes (i.e. collision improvements, visual improvements, optimizations and straight-up bug fixes). Rather than having to search the Nexus for hours and being busy patching tons of conflicts, it provides a simple one-click installation. The changes made to the meshes are as vanilla-friendly as possible. Conflicting meshes have been patched if necessary.
If there were multiple options available, the option coming closest to vanilla as well as the high poly version have been chosen. These mods are underlined and can be downloaded separately on their respective mod pages if you desire to install a different option. Mods containing a parallax version aren't underlined, since you can easily patch your entire load order with ParallaxGen, making any provided parallax versions obsolete.
Warning: Due to several meshes that have had their polygon count increased, this mod will inevitably impact your performance to a certain degree.
