Tropical Skyrim Overhaul Mod - screw canon

[SpacePanther]

This mod is really beautiful and I don't know if you guys are into big, fancy mods like it, but I'd definitely suggest it. Heck, I'll show the screen shots from my game, and a list of mods that compliment it well.

Yeah, sorry, I know those are a lot of screenshots but his mod is hella gorgeous. Now onto the mod list...

Realistic Animals and Predators - Seriously, one of my favorites. If you're big in immersion, this mod is good for that, plus it's nice not having every creature attack you when you walk around.

Birds of Skyrim - More birds! It clashes only a little aesthetically with this mod, but I still think it's necessary. I don't think it's that bad to see the odd duck in a jungle, right?

Dogs of Skyrim - Vanilla dogs are boring. This mod brings a shit ton of breeds and puppers to the game. They even have a Nix Hound.

Improved Fish - Personally, I couldn't get this one to work, but I'm retarded when it comes to modding. Lots of people suggest this though and it gives more life to Skyrim's waters.

Prides of Skyrim - Adds prides of lions to Skyrim. Also adds a place called Pride Rock (haha, Lion King reference) and a big bad Lion called Scar.

Horse Replacer and Wild Zebras - Obviously, Skyrim's horses don't look well with TSH. These zebras don't look that great either, but the modder suggests you add the "slimmer horses" mesh to make them look more realistic.

Waves - Kind of self explanatory.

Animallica: Skyrim Wildlife Overhaul - Has a lot of tropical animals to flesh out the game better. Good for vanilla Skyrim too.

Colorful Dragons - Make your dragons prettier.

Wisplicker - Tiger companion.

Elephants - Replaces Mammoths with Elephants

Werehyenas - For immersion purposes, since regular Werewolves don't quite fit.

Less Armor More Shields - Self explanatory.

Tropical Whiterun, Tropical Solitude, Tropical Windhelm, Tropical Winterhold, Tropical Riften - Improves the cities for this mod.

Solstheism Skaal and Hunter - Makes them wear tropical outfits.

Tropical Grass and Plants - Pretty mod, but made the game run really slow for me.

Imperials to Aztecs - Changes Imperial armor.

Tropical Skyrim Optimised - Helps the mod run better by cutting down A LOT of trees and etc. Plus, it makes it so you can see the paths because there is a lot of stuff covering them without this mod.

Kygarra - Hyena race mod.

I guess I'm going to be the first to say it.
I think Tropical Skyrim looks hideous. The foliage looks especially bad and the lighting is so flat in your 5th screenshot.

r00d. Kidding. I should've mentioned the fifth screenshot is another mod, and I can agree that that mod makes some places look weird, it's one I gotta tweak a bit. Otherwise, I agree to disagree.

I like snowy skyrim personally because it reminds me of my homeland Canada

That's actually neat. Original will always be best but I've played the game so much and I just like the change. Gives me a Morrowind feel or a pseudo-Elsweyr. There's apparently a summer mod, which I feel people would like better because it isn't as drastic of a change as this one.

Where is the boob slider mod?

Very interesting overhaul mod. I can see people that roleplay Khajits getting into it and pretending they're in Elsweyr or something. There was a quest mod that took place there if I remember right.

Fascinating.

It looks more like a desert than "tropical"

Yeah, that one is called MoonPath of Elsweyr. I haven't tried it yet.

I hope the mod replaces armor too because it really looks uncomfortable wearing thick fur when it's 90 degrees out.

There is a mod where it replaces texture but not a lot of mods to change clothes and other armors. However, a mod posted above, Less Armor more Shields helps a bit with that. I have a texture mod where it changes regular fur to look like leopard fur.

Honestly, I bet a skimpy armor/clothes mod or something would work too.

I wonder what Throat of the World looks like.

I played this mod ages ago, it looked like shit. i eventually just went for the skyrim in springtime mod
