Description
This mod is my attempt to retexture mountains and rocks in Skyrim giving them more detailed view with mixture of realism and fantasy.
Holy Mountains includes:
1. New separate textures for mountains and rocks.
2. New texture for snow shader.
3. Majestic mountains and SMIM meshes with tweaked UV maps.
Holy Mountains comes in two versions:
1. Standalone vanilla version with adjusted SMIM meshes
2. Majestic Mountains version with a mixture of adjusted MM and SMIM meshes.
Holy Mountains is now standalone.
Mountain textures were drawn almost from scratch in Photoshop using source assets from Tamriel Reloaded - Mountains and Rocks mod.
Textures for cairns and tundra rocks were taken from free sources on the internet.
The screenshots were taken using NVT ENB (Obsidian ver.) + Cathedral Weathers preset as well as carefully handpicked landscape textures from various mods. Depending on your setup the ingame look may be different.
Installation
Install manually or with your mod manager. Let it overwrite conflicting files.
If using Majestic Mountains, I recommend downloading Lightside version and Lightside lods for better blending at distance (but still it is up to you to decide what's best).
Compatibility
This mod alters material object, static and texture set records.
This mod does not change or add anything to worldspace or cell records.
Holy Mountains is compatible with:
1. SMIM
2. Majestic Mountains (as well as moss version)
3. Skyrim 3D Rocks
If Holy Mountains is used with Skyrim 3D Rocks, snow rocks models will be used from Holy Mountains mod for better blending with landscape.
Holy Mountains obviously is not compatible with other retextures of mountains and rocks.
Load order
1. SMIM
2. Skyrim 3D Rocks
3. Majestic Mountains (if used)
4. Holy Mountains
5. Realistic Water Two SE
Theres is a small conflict in water creek meshes from RWT, but it is hardly noticeable. Load RTW after and use its meshes.
I also recommend loading Better Dynamic Snow somewhere before Holy Mountains and Majestic Mountains as all of them change the color of snow shader.
Important note:
Some other mods may include rocks and mountains meshes. If you load these mods after Holy Mountains, it will not crash your game but some meshes will be overwritten and may not look as intended in game.
Plans
I am planning to continue working on these textures adding more variety and detail to them.
