Pushes the Iliac Bay horizon out with low-poly far terrain and sky blending.
0 playing nowWhat it changes
Extends far-clip terrain, adds optional geometry/texture transition into the near mesh, marks distant settlements as brighter spots, and can pick up sea reflections when Realtime Reflections is present. Compatible with Splat Terrain Texturing. World of Daggerfall players should use the separate 'Distant Terrain of the World of Daggerfall' patch instead of this file.
About Distant Terrain
Distant Terrain is a community add-on for The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall. Distant Terrain is Nystul-the-Magician's view-distance mod for Daggerfall Unity. Vanilla DFU drops world geometry a short way from the player; this pack keeps generating low-poly terrain out to the horizon and, with Enhanced Sky, blends that mesh into the sky so the coastline does not pop. It ships its own terrain sampler that tries to respect the original height map rather than inventing a new continent. Download the .dfmod from Nexus Mods (login required) and place it in Daggerfall Unity's StreamingAssets/Mods folder, then enable it in the in-game mod list. Pair with Enhanced Sky. Do not confuse this with World of Daggerfall's terrain pack. Mods are versioned separately from the base game — match the recommended engine or client release before joining multiplayer, and keep a clean backup of your settings if you experiment with several packs at once. PlayBound only lists projects that publish redistributable archives or clear external download pages. Always read the upstream README for credits, required assets, and known incompatibilities.
Compatibility: Daggerfall Unity 1.0+
