About this mod Machine translation
A simple mod that changes some of Skyrim's names to make them more bland.
This is a small mod that changes boring alchemical ingredient names to make them more interesting or specific. Blue mountain flowers are now cornflowers, swamp fungus pods are now Swampstar pods, snowberries are now holly, and so on. The new names are based on real-life plants and past Elder Scrolls games. Some are just slightly changed to be more specific or accurate. (i.e. the Torchbug thorax model is actually an abdominal one) Only the ingredient names and some harvestable plant names have been changed. There are no new textures or models, and composition effects have not changed.
(Version 1.1 adds new ingredient names to the recipe.)

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
