Seasons of Skyrim is a rework of my old project SkySummer and provides 2 seasonal overhauls you can choose: summer and pure winter.

Posted by on

I've aborted the work on my previous project SkySummer due to mass of bugs, issues and many other problems and also the bad quality of SkySummer and decided to take the landscape textures from SkySummer to create a new normal "summer overhaul" and also a "pure winter overhaul".

The Summer Edition

of Seasons of Skyrim will turn most landscapes of skyrim into summer, except snow landscapes. Okay, I've retextured one snow texture with a grassy snow texture, since in summer snow melts away, there will be much more grass in snow areas now, but it will always look most immersive as possible.

I've retextured the tundra, fall forest, pine forest, reach and volcanic tundra region. I've not changed trees or plants (as in SkySummer), I just retextured them to fit the summer theme. There are also many new different colored grasses and flowers to turn skyrim into a colorful world.

I made this mod for best compatibility. So there will be no weather and lighting changes in the main version (just as optional file), so you are able to use all your favorite lighting and weather mods like CoT, RLO and ELFX and also your favorite ENB setting.

There are just a few mod which will not be compatible: like vurts flora overhaul, grass mods and landscape mods. All textures were made in HD for good resolution, so this won't be compatible with landscape texture mods, but with every else texture mod.

No Snow version: I've done also a "no snow" version, like skysummer, but with only trees and plants from the original skyrim and no unnecessary retextures. I don't know jet if I will release the no snow version, maybe I should since it looks very good, but there are many things to fix.

The Winter Edition

will turn skyrim into a immersive winter paradise and cover all regions, buildings and other objects with snow. Plants and flowers were replaced with snow shrubs, dead shrubs and other snow objects. The original mod was created by "megatenP".

I've picked up his unfinished work and fixed/improved many things. I've also added many new objects: like icefloes, frozen landscape, snow drifts and snow blowing FX to the landscape of skyrim. The lake around riften is frozen (as sample, for what I've done).

Also the winter edition was made for best compatibility with other mods and will be compatible with any mod, except landscape and grass mods.
