The official site for The Elder Scrolls series, including The Elder Scrolls: Blades, coming fall 2018. NexusMods' member ‘Lurker667' has released a 10GB AI-enhanced HD Texture Pack for Skyrim Special Edition that overhauls all of its textures. Skyrim Textures Upscaled has every texture cleaned.
Skyrim fans, here is something for you today. Modder ‘Iconic' has released a new HD Texture Pack for Skyrim Special Edition that overhauls the textures of all creatures. This HD Texture Pack weighs around 4.6GB and is a must-have for everyone.
Going into more details, Iconic used Kartoffels' Cleaned Skyrim SE Textures as a base. He then upscaled all the creature textures with an AI upscaler, processed with a custom photoshop filter, and saved in BC7 file format.
According to the modder, the texture sizes for the full-resolution version range from 512×512 to 8192×8192. Naturally, the large creatures are 8K because they are really large.
Project Clarity – Creature Textures Redone is an AI-upscaled project. What this means is that its textures are based on the original textures, and its quality doesn't even come close to retextures made from scratch. However, these upscaled textures are still better than vanilla. Furthermore, this mod should serve as an excellent base for building textures off of.
Speaking of Skyrim Special Edition, you may be also interested in some other mods. For instance, Skyrim 2020 Version 3.5 or with Septentrional Landscapes SE aim to overhaul the environmental textures. There is also a 10GB AI-enhanced Texture Pack overhauls all of the game's textures (there might be some conflict issues with it). Enhanced Blood Textures mod makes the game gorier and bloodier than ever. Furthermore, this mod overhauls its magic system by adding more than 200 new spells. Lastly, this mod completely overhauls its enemy system.
You can download this mod from here. You can also find some screenshots for it below.

Skyrim Special Edition Hd Mods
The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Special Edition comes with some more enhancements in terms of graphics. But the game is not stable at 60fps. Certain graphic settings will push the graphic below 30fps resulting in poor gameplay. So we bring you a lot more stable settings that will keep the game running on 60fps without glitch. There is little modification you will have to do in the game settings, plus you have to use a third party Vysnc tool to keep the fps stable.
Warning:
- It is recommended to backup the original files before doing any changes. We will not be responsible for any game crash or issue occurred after following the below points.
- The settings can cause the game slow on launch.
Before giving you the accurate settings I will add some common solution for graphic enhancement. If you had already done with it, then skip to the second part of this guide.
Skyrim Special Edition graphic optimization tips:
- Update the video drivers – The most common thing you can start with, check that your gpu is running on the latest drivers.
- Disable TAA – Turn off TAA settings in order to improve the image quality of the game. You can either use Off or you can use FXAA. Check both and see which works well on your system.
- Disable Vsync- Disable vysnc to remove 60fps capping.
- Window Mode – If the graphic performance is very poor try to play the game in window mode.
- Turn off background applications. Check your cpu usage in Task Manager. If the cpu usage is above 40% then exist background application.
