To overhaul weather in Skyrim ( as well as install a custom shader) we will use Vivid Weathers. Lighting and atmosphere plays an equally important role. Textures are only one part of the overall visual overhaul. This mod alone will change the way your game looks completely. With that being said, it is compatible with SMIM and there’s a patch that you should install ( asset install order doesn’t matter).
The good thing about this mod is that it also covers a ton of different landscape textures, as well as small objects & clutter.
Otherwise consider performance pack if you plan to install a lot of other texture mods. If you have more than 4 GBs of vRAM, go with standard. Noble Skyrim features slightly different architecture than vanilla game, and it also comes with two editions. Noble Skyrim Mod HD-2Kįirst mod on our list, a complete texture overhaul. Did you know that you could overhaul Skyrim SE graphics ( pretty much) completely with only 7 ( or less) mods?
