High Quality Retexture of Cloaks of Skyrim, now Upscaled to 4K. Plus performance options for Potato PCs. JDANCHOR NEEDS OUR HELP!
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Justin, AKA JDAnchor, is in need of a lifesaving surgery. Please visit here to learn more and support the fundraiser. He is dealing with a chronic complex series of issues in his ear canals and intracranial cavities and is unable to work or do many things for himself as his health degrades and threatens his very life.
I am releasing this mod to help bring attention to JDAnchor's urgent need for financial support. Yes, he will be receiving Donation Points from this mod, but he needs lots of money now to pay for this surgery, not small amounts 4 months from now. Please donate to the fundraiser if you can, and share the link with others! Together we can help JDAnchor enjoy many more years of life.
=========================================================================
Texture files from the original mod were primarily in 2K and some 1K. I have cleaned all files of compression artifacts, and then upscaled them all by 4x, to a maximum resolution of 4K in BC3 compression and generated full mipmaps. I cleaned and upscaled them using Cupscale/ESRGAN and then finalized with NVIDIA Texture Tools and Octagon.
Installation
Requires Cloaks of Skyrim
Performance Option for Potato PCs
Mipmaps compression reduce VRAM usage, especially when the files are cleaned of compression artifacts.
For Potato PCs, I've uploaded a downscaled normal map file, which is less visible in game than the diffuse textures. Just overwrite the main file with that one.

If you are interested in collaborating on Overhaul projects, or levelling up your experience of modding Skyrim, please join my discord server, Skypocalypse.
Skypocalypse is above all a place for COLLABORATION, a community hub for mutual aid to level up our skills and Skyrim itself.
This server is the host to Skypocalypse Academy, where modders and porters of all skill and experience levels assist each other as we dive ever deeper into transforming the bones of this magical game. Featuring an extensive library of tools and resources, The Academy is meant to be as educational as it is welcoming.
We know from experience that modding is an extremely addictive past-time and can be a slippery slope from creating a simple load order to porting mods to going full boat and attempting to rebuild Skyrim from the ground up. That's why we believe in a community that integrates Xbox and PC gamers along with porting noobs and experienced mod authors. We all have more to learn, and modding Skyrim to its extreme is a community effort to say the least.
Skypocalypse is meant to be a gaming community that supports collaborative efforts. The gaming and social channels here are intended to foster the social connections that help act as glue for our collaborative work.
