Splendor with Artistic Skyrim Overhaul
I originally wanted to design this mod for PS4 users since they can't have DDC; however, it turned out really great even for PC.
By recombining all dragon models and textures included in the vanilla game and DLCs, I was able to make 56 unique model-texture combos.
Multiply that by 2 breath types (fire and frost) and 7 levels of strength, this maximizes variety while sticking entirely to vanilla mechanics and resources.
Best of all, it's:
100% compatible with any mod that alters the strength/abilities of vanilla dragons.
100% compatible with retextures of vanilla dragons.
100% compatible with Diverse Dragons Collection SE.
Technical
Requirements, Installation & Compatibility
Spoiler:
Requirements:
-Dawnguard
-Dragonborn
Installation:
Standard. Use a mod manager or extract the plugin to your Data folder.
Uninstallation:
Revert to an old save from before installation, and disable/delete the mod.
Compatibility:
100% compatible with any mod that alters the strength/abilities of vanilla dragons.
100% compatible with retextures of vanilla dragons.
100% compatible with Diverse Dragons Collection 3 without a patch.
Requires a Bashed Patch to be compatible with other mods that add dragons to the leveled lists.
If you don't make a Bashed Patch, place this at the bottom of your load order to ensure that other mods don't overwrite it.
Testing:
I included a neat little trick for testing...open the console (~) then type:
help "random dragon"
player.placeatme xxxxxx
Replace the x's with the code that shows up after the first command.
This will randomly spawn one of the dragons added by this mod. It will not give you a soul.

Naming/Strength
Spoiler:
Dragons have the following names to indicate their strength:
1. Young Fire Dragon, Young Frost Dragon
2. Fire Dragon, Frost Dragon
3. Aged Fire Dragon, Aged Frost Dragon
4. Elder Fire Dragon, Elder Frost Dragon
5. Ancient Fire Dragon, Ancient Frost Dragon
6. Revered Fire Dragon, Revered Frost Dragon
7. Legendary Fire Dragon, Legendary Frost Dragon
The first three correspond to vanilla Dragon, Blood Dragon, and Frost Dragon, respectively. The rest are obvious!
Their strengths and abilities are exactly what the corresponding vanilla dragons would have without this mod. This mod will adopt any changes to vanilla dragon strength/abilities added by other mods.
