Better Towns Textures - For SMIM

Description
==== Workshop notes ====

If you don't use Statics Meshes Improvement, use this version instead.

I cannot uppload all my compatibility files on the workshop, so if you want to use them, you have to go on the nexus page[www.nexusmods.com]. (accunt needed).




When I started Skyrim, I was very excited to vist the cities. The five main holds are nice with a unique style... but the others! They are identical! The same "farmhouses" display in a different place. That's all. Bethesda didn't make the effort to offer different cities... I was very disappointed, so, I tried to change it.

==== DETAILS ====

- Unique aspect for Falkreath, Morthal, Dawnstar, Winterhold.
- Immersive and lore-friendly.
- New textures for walls, roofs, walkways and more.
- No performance hit as it uses your textures.
- Does not expand cities.
- A single .esp.
- Do not touch interiors

Falkreath was supposed to be the Capital of one of the most populous Holds in Skyrim. It was also a part of Cyrodiil then join SKyrim. But this is a useless city, wich looks like Riverwood.
So, Falkreath looks likes a imperial city. Walls are in stone and roof have tiles. I Higly recommend to use the mod ImpeREAL Empire - Unique Cities - Falkreath[skyrim.nexusmods.com] by SilentResident, it's very complementary with my mod.

I like this city but it lacks of character. Dawnstar is a city of trade with a harbour, it's near a big pine forest. So, they have wood in profusion. Dawnstar now have wooden roofs and walls. There is also more snow on roofs.

I wasn't very inspired by this city. This is not a big town, and I wanted to keep this "lost" character. I simply added some stone and changed the farmhouse style to whiterun farmhouse style.

What a joke! This was one the capital of Skyrim before being destroyed by the great collapse. Nowadays, we don't see remains of the past, just 4 abandonded shacks. I've just added stone to still standing building and also to destroyed buildings. There is also more snow on roofs. I higly recommend to use Expanded Winterhold Destruction Ruins[skyrim.nexusmods.com] by by Rhinala70 and phaota.

==== Compatibility ====

- Mods that add new buildings may look weird. They'll still have vanilla aspect, but you won't have crashs nor bugs!
- If you use Immersive Settlements or Expanded Towns and Cities, Expanded WInterhold Destructions Ruins use the patchs!
- Sexy Cities and Tamriel Reloaded may look strange, because they heavily change textures. I don't use these mod so, try-out!
- Not compatible with mods that edit vanilla buildings themselfs. But as far as I know, there isn't on Nexus.
- Project Parallax: a pacth is avaible on the nexus.
- Compatible with Seasons of Skyrim with patch.
- It should work with Tropical Skyrim if you use Seasons of Skyrim Summer, but textures may look strange.

==== Load Order ====

Use BOSS, but load order is not very important if you don't use patch.

Is this compatible with any of the "Towns & Villages Enhanced" mods?

I get from steam a "better towns textures - smim.esp" of 56,901 bytes. The file size may indicate that something ain't alright, if this mod shall include some custom textures.
