Grand Solitude - The Walls of High King Erling - Fixed and Optimized

What This Mod Does

This mod fixes and enhances many meshes for better runnability. The changes include:

Shape merging and grouping, reducing the shape count by 5 to 10 for many meshes — fewer drawcalls.

Removal of duplicate vertices to reduce polycount while keeping the exact same visual result.

Fixes shader flags that are unused or missing.

Removal of broken blocks.

Interior meshes are left untouched by the shape merging process to prevent lighting limitation issues. Other fixes have still been applied to them.

⚠ Still a work in progress, it might not be perfect in the first versions

Installation

Download and install the mod like any regular mod in your favorite mod manager. This mod is meshes only — the base Grand Solitude mod is still required.

Compatibility

Should be compatible with everything as it is only meshes. For maximum compatibility, load this mod just after Grand Solitude and let other mods win conflicts.

For incompatibilities not yet found, let me know in the comments so I can provide patches.
