About this mod
An overhaul of Stalhrim that preserves the vanilla colour palette, minimises the neon lighting effect in bright sun and adds a subtle, glacier style parallax effect to stalhrim armors, weapons and clutter to make it look and feel a bit more like real ice.

Why overhaul Stalhrim?
Stalhrim has long been my favourite armor set in Skyrim, and for too long have I suffered the mismatched textures and neon glow of the originals. This mod is my way of fixing stalhrim for myself and I thought to share it with the modding community. It never hurts to have more choices, after all.
What does this mod do?
- Preserves the general vanilla colour and feel of the armors and weapons.
- Reduces the insanely bright glare that shines from the armors (see images for a before and after)
- Adds an ice like parallax effect to all stalhrim meshes. (see the video for a quick preview)
- Makes weapons match the armor more closely.
- Edits the shield to make it look like it is actually made of the same material as the rest of the equipment.
- Makes colouration consistent across equipment to make mixing and matching sets a little more forgiving on the eyes.
- Has additional patches that apply this effect to stalhrim items from other mods for the sake of consistency.
- ESP-less and can be installed/uninstalled at will.
What doesn't this mod do?
Change any stats/loot etc, since there are no plugins.
