A free world map upgrade mod for Skyrim

Skyrim - A Quality World Map: Solstheim with Roads is a free mod providing a hand-drawn, 2D map.

Immerse yourself in a high-quality, hand-drawn world map

By default in Skyrim, the world map is a 3D bird's eye view of the world, with quest markers on top of it. For such an immersive game, this can feel unrealistic. This mod replaces the world map with a hand-drawn, 2D map that better fits what a character might realistically have in the world of Skyrim.

Enhance the default map

Another option is also available that keeps the 3D world map, but upgrades the textures and makes roads visible. This can be very handy for players, as it is easy to get lost when exploring. These roads can also hint towards areas the player has not explored and other secrets.

High quality maps to enhance the playing experience

Players looking to tweak the world map have plenty of options to choose from with Skyrim - A Quality World Map: Solstheim with Roads. Whether you want the realistic, 2D hand-drawn style similar to Skyrim Map, or just want to enhance the existing 3D map, this mod caters to both.

Issues with 2D maps

Unfortunately, the game still renders quest markers placed on the world map in 3D space, so there can be some positioning errors when this is applied to the 2D map. Height cannot be represented in 2D space, so players must adjust accordingly when playing the game.

  • Pros

    • Map modifications include DLC regions like Solstheim.
    • Players can choose between dirt or cobblestone roads.
    • Players can choose between seeing all roads or just main roads.
    • Uses very high-quality, detailed map textures.
  • Cons

    • Quest markers are positioned in 3D space, so they may appear incorrectly positioned on the 2D map.
    • Zoom controls are disabled on the 2D map.
    • Removes the world map fog, spoiling unexplored regions for new players.
    • Cobblestone roads can be hard to see.
