Introduction

About Aurora - A Visual Overhaul.

Aurora is a Wabbajack visuals-only list for Skyrim Special Edition with an emphasis on consistency. It is based on Skyrim Modding Essentials and contains the same fixes and tools, including widescreen support; however, no changes were made to gameplay, interface, content integration, etc.

Due to the nature of the list, I expect that most users will use it as a base for their own setup. As such, it requires the same disclaimer as SME: I will provide no support whatsoever for anything beyond the setup itself, I am not responsible for your modifications. That being said, Aurora is fully documented which should help in building off it.

Skyrim SE 1.6.x on Steam and the full Anniversary Edition DLC are required.

Aurora is fully documented.
