MODS/EMULATORS

This mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim allows you to completely destroy objects, like barrels and chairs
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/this-mod-for-the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-allows-you-completely-destroy-objects-like-barrels-and-chairs/
John Jarvis has released a really cool mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This mod, called “Destructible Skyrim – Breakable Objects”, allows players to destroy various environmental objects. Now I don’t know about you, but I’m really glad that someone is finally bringing destructible objects to Skyrim.
As the modder noted, players can now smash objects to pieces and watch the physics-enabled debris fly everywhere.
>> The mod is available from Nexus Mods. Here are the links for the original game and the Special Edition:

Skyrim SE mod finally lets you do something useful with books, like burn them
https://www.pcgamer.com/skyrim-se-mod-finally-lets-you-do-something-useful-with-books-like-burn-them/
It's about time book burning came to Skyrim Special Edition. A Tragedy in Black? Boethiah's Proving? Pah! Those are not fine works of literature. They're heretical garbage, and should be treated as such: First ripped to pieces and then burned to a crisp. And really, how many copies of Argonian Account does any one person need? Enter Project Illiteracy, which promises to let you put your books to good use as fuel against the harsh winter nights.

Fallout 4 mods add AI-enhanced LOD textures, HD landscape & road textures, improve interior lighting
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/fallout-4-mods-add-ai-enhanced-lod-textures-hd-landscape-road-textures-improve-interior-lighting/
Some new mods that improve the visuals of Fallout 4 have been released this weekend. These four mods that we’re presenting you in this article will improve the interior lighting and will add new HD textures.
>> Check out the article for the descriptions of each one and the links to get them (they're all from Nexus Mods).

No Man's Sky modders are already updating mods for Beyond
https://www.pcgamer.com/no-mans-sky-modders-are-already-updating-mods-for-beyond/
The No Man's Sky modding community is relatively small, but full of important tweaks to the space-faring sim to change the game's UI, controls, and visuals. It's easy to rely on even the smallest changes to games when they get locked into your muscle memory and being suddenly without them is an annoyance. Fortunately, modders for No Man's Sky seem to be updating to Beyond (the latest 2.0 version of the game) extremely quickly.
>> Check the article for the mods and links. It's worth noting that they're not the same as the mods from last Friday's article.
