Rediscover the harsh beauty of Ashlander life with Ashlander Yurts -AoVv, an immersive retexture mod for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind that revitalizes the traditional dwelling places of the Ashlanders. This mod aims to enhance the visual appeal and authenticity of these unique, nomadic structures while staying true to the original design and aesthetic of the game. This graphic mod will enhance your gameplay experience by improving the visual appearance of the traditional Ashlander yurts scattered across the severe landscape of Vvardenfell.

Features:
  • High-resolution textures: The mod introduces high-quality, handcrafted textures that significantly improve the overall appearance of the Ashlander yurts. These new textures are designed to stay true to the original art style while providing a fresh and updated look.
  • Attention to detail: The retexturing process incorporates vanilla-style colors and added details to both the exteriors and interiors of the yurts
  • Streamlined compatibility: The mod is designed to function seamlessly with the base game and popular Morrowind retexture mods (mostly because almost no one retextured them before). The mod has undergone extensive testing and optimization, ensuring minimal compatibility issues or performance impact.

Download and enjoy!

Technical details:
This mod changes 9 textures (the yurts and wormridden ), that are used in the meshes of the Ashlander yurts, you can find in the base game, to the new and detailed ones.
Main texture of this mod, its "corncerstone" is this texture, drawn by Ravanna from the Skywind Team back in 2014. Nowadays Skywind Ashlander yurts are using different textures and the author generously permitted me to use his texture for this mod.
