Better World Map

Description
Better World Map increases the quality of the world map, adding a more imersive feeling when your fast traveling to Solitude or wherever you need to go.

Better World Map increases the texture resolution(only on world map) of the mountains and landscape. But the main focus is detail not texture here. But new textures are always nice. It also greatly adds more precise details like the Morthal Marsh. The channels are more precise. This also adds more rocks and cliffs visible on the world map. The main function of this mod is to add more details visible on the world map. The changes were relatively easy to make but the change is more than noticeable.

Significantly changes the texture of the world map water to a nice deep blue that looks like water instead of the greenish vanilla water. I didn't know that such a little change of the water texture made that big a difference. I do also believe this adds reflections in the water on the world map.

This mod also effects the world maps of Wyrmstooth and Solstheim ramping up their quality as well. I believe this ramps up the quality of any world map.

Creation Kit wasn't used in the making of this mod other than the bsa and publishing. So this mod shouldn't effect performance that much. Most of the work was done through Oscape and other applications.

I hope you enjoy this simple yet nice mod I made here.

Hi, don't want to make this sound negative, just letting you know that this mod made my game crash to desktop whenever I went into certain areas of the northern part of the map. Might have been clashing with another mod but just letting you know :) Otherwise very nice mod
