Can somebody get that phone. Because I ******* CALLED IT!

See that is where you're wrong. To consider The TPC a Mod, would mean that it internally edits the files you edit. It doesn't, Since: A.) It Merely Chooses while files NOT to use Thus not editing your work, internally. B.) The File names belong to Bethesda anyway, which technically makes it a derivative work, so you don't own that either. it simply chooses which texture you can use or not, It does not INTERNALLY Merge them, and thus does not modify any content. Also I don't see why he can't do it when you purposely allow STEP to do it. The only difference between STEP and TPC is that TPC is a batch file, the goal, the TECHNIQUE, is all the same. To guide people to texture mods and MERGE MODS EXTERNALLY, and not modify the actual contents of the mod, which is completely Legal and up to the USER to do. As in the user of the batch file. Which is nothing but a bunch of commands on a computer screen, the user's computer screen. See what you haven't read about the Nexus is that once the user has downloaded your file, Unless they INTERNALLY Modify or repost your content, they are FREE TO USE IT. He's not literally going into your SRO files and drawing on it, he's Reccomending (Read: They don't have to do it.) Others to download your mods, and the program, instead of having them sift through texture files MANUALLY, has it automatically Organized and moved around with. Which again, is completely up to the USER how much of YOUR Files are used, not the batch file itself. You're essentially say that the USER cannot use the files they downloaded, that YOU made Public, how they want, nor can they choose to merge it with other mods. Also I like how you assumed that people are angry at Cestral. The Problem is, nobody is angry at Cestral, His Endorsement rating on the Nexus is exactly the same as it always was, and nobody has called him out in his comment box. Seriously, if your goal was to get his peers angry by doing this stunt instead of taking this to the Nexus Admins like a Mature adult, you have ALOT of Growing up to do buddy. EDIT: And Now people have to actually DONATE to you to get updates? Pfff, good luck with that ******.

Meh, this looks like crap to be honest. It's waaaaaaay to shiny, and I don't mind beauty mods that much (Personally I use Navatsea skin texture, as i don't feel it strays that far from Vanilla and still attempts to look attractive.) With a combination of Elven Ethereal Overhaul.

Let's be fair Starac, not alot of people NOTICE these texture issues, because Skyrim is a Photorealistic game. This makes it EASY for Photoskinned textures (What we in the Sims 3 Mod Community call it.) To be passed off. Unless the person is FAMILIAR with actually drawing textures, they probably don't SEE that. Hell Until you told me, I didn't even see it, and retextures is mostly what I DO for the Sims 3.

Starac sort of has a point, as a Modder for The Sims 3, it's damn there horrendous when you use photo's as textures, It clashes with the art style of the game, which while it may or may not LOOK better on it's own, if it's thrown into the game...well...It just looks like this. That's NOT a good look. When you create Textures for a game you HAVE to make sure it matches the art style. This is critical in all game design and modding. He also has a point on the mods he chose, not only are they good for overall use, but they don't eat that much VRAM and does just a good of job as Overhauling than others do.

He wants a comparison, between TPC's Textures and Default game textures I think something like this. https://static.skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/images/20801-5-1349536110.jpg
