A Quality World Map and Solstheim Map – With Roads

Softonic review

A mod to help you navigate through the Skyrim world

Navigate the world of Skyrim using A Quality World Map and Solstheim Map – With Roads. It is a free, unofficial mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim that aims to rework the Skyrim game’s viewable world map.

Once you install the mod, you will find that the world map is far more detailed and has new features. However, the mod does not affect the actual locations of the game, and it does not introduce new areas like the Skyrim Wyrmstooth Mod. Instead, this mod merely enhances the guide-map.

A more detailed map

While a viewable map of the game world is included with the original Skyrim, this mod greatly enhances it. The regular map becomes sharper, with more detail, and it’s of more use when trying to find your way around the playing world.

Includes a hand-drawn road map

Another feature included with the world map and Solstheim map mod is a hand-drawn road map. It is a specially created map that appears to be drawn on yellowing paper. The idea is to make the game’s roads easier to identify. You can choose between hand-drawn and “vivid” maps as needed.

A new approach to maps

Any players who felt annoyed at Skyrim’s built-in map system, where decorative clouds obscure the areas, will appreciate the sharper and clearer pictures offered by this mod. The option of a hand-drawn map harks back to the classic fantasy novels that inspired games like Skyrim.

A free mod with something to offer

Although game mods that alter graphics usually only provide a cosmetic overhaul, this mod pack is different. Its graphical changes can actually have a beneficial effect on gameplay: with the mod installed, the game world becomes simpler to navigate.
