OTHER ARTIFACTS MODS I RECOMMEND USING ALONGSIDE THIS RETEXTURE

Artifacts / unique items are obviously a big part of the game that I aim to improve with this retexture. But there are plenty of other mods out there that touch artifacts/unique items in different ways and I want to give a shout-out to a few of my favorites that I would recommend to everyone Of course, none of these are required.

GAMPELAY MOD

Artificer - An Artifact Overhaul by SimonMagus, Deltarider and Oreo

When it comes to artifact overhauls, Artificer is the one I would recommend. I love all its changes to existing artifacts and newly added ones. I also had the chance to work with Simon, Deltarider and Oreo to add an optional texture addon to give custom visuals to artifacts that are normally copies of vanilla items

House of Horrors - Quest Expansion & The Only Cure - Quest Expansion by JaySerpa

I am a big fan of JaySerpa's work and would recommend all their mods. They all add immersion and fun new twists to existing Skyrim content.

Royal Armory - New Artifacts by PrivateEye

This mod gives unique named weapons to various important NPCs. All these new models are great and use vanilla texture paths, meaning they work with my retextures. Overhaul I would recommend all mods by privateEye!

VISUALS NOT COVERED BY MY RETEXTURE

I decided not to cover any non-weapon or armor artifact. This means I did not cover Azura's star and the skeleton key. Here are my favorite existing retextures for the items that I think would fit well with my style of textures:

Azuras Star and Skeleton Key Remastered SE by dpillari

RUSTIC AZURA'S STAR by Gamwich

Another Azura's Star Retexture by Darenii

Elsopa - Azura's Star Redone SE by Elsopa

Elsopa - Skeleton Key Redone by Elsopa
