Morrowind Mod of the Day - Docks of Suran 2023 Showcase
153Suran, one of the biggest Hlaalu settlements in vanilla Morrowind, has always been something of a paradox. A city built on trade and commerce, Suran is home to a dozen shops, taverns, and tradehouses, yet for all those commercial services and despite the close proximity of the sea, the city doesn't even have a dock.
This was a major oversight that was notably rectified by the 2017 release of Docks of Suran by Vallylilly, a beautiful and atmospheric expansion to Suran that not only expanded the city with a new set of docks, but also added in lots of immersive clutter, new details for the city's lower market, and travel connections to other nearby cities by boat.
Of course, some aspects have become a little dated with time, and with the advent of OAAB Data, some assets were in need of replacement.
And that's where today's Mod of the Day comes in, for today we're showcasing Docks of Suran OAAB-ified by Lucevar, a 2023 update on this old mod that removes the more dated aspects, like the statues, replaces assets with new OAAB Data counterparts, and adds in new OAAB Data clutter, to help this mod better fit in with a more modern Morrowind install.
It also significantly improves FPS performance over the original, and all in all, this is an excellent update on an already superb mod, and well worth checking out for yourself!
