Magistrate

I released version 2.0 which sports HD (2048x2048) Warpaints, here some screenies:

I figured this would be one good link.Is this one any good as well? https://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Skyrim

Actually I don't use any ENB and with the sheer quantity of ENB profiles around I tried not to favour one profile over the other to avoid weird results if running an entirely different profile.

@Farlo: Is there a universally acknowledged lore repository online? @Korentin: You got a point definitely. @Spiffyman: I was infact thinking of adding another set of colors to the existing ones.

If Skyrim was a "realistic medieval game" I would have agreed with you, but considered it is a fantasy game I believe it's quite hard to compare it to a specific time period and location, if on one hand Nords resemble vikings and Bretons medieval europeans for instance, if you take Imperials they resemble romans, moreover if you take orcs they have many similarities with japanese samurais (or american-indians eventually) or again if you take dark elves they are close to the nomad populations of central europe. Interesting bits about pale skinned women and the use of malachite though.

So according to these depending on the culture nail polish was either reserved for higher classes or it was for everybody and it was used to symbolize the class (black for the higher class down to green for the lower classes). To that, I can add that during roman times women were so much after beautification that they used to use lead, which is poisonous (granted they didn't know at that time), to "better" themselves.

@Neovalen: Thank you for your post. If "harsh" posts may discourage modders and push them to the "why the hell I bother sharing", your kind of posts do just the opposite :) Granted this particular mod is certainly a very small thing which required a very small effort from myself time-wise. @Besidilo: The beauty of TES games is that anyone of us can play the game the way they want thanks to mod. When I post a mod I do not expect to be greeted and thanked as an emperor because I fully realize that while some may like what I do, some other may dislike it, and that is just fine, as well as it's fine to get constructive criticism or lore-related questions. What I personally do find discouraging is when people in the process of expressing their opinion feel the need to trash someone else's work, no matter how small. But perhaps I misunderstood you as I am sure you did not have this precise intent. To put it in other words, if you'd make a mod which would increase the number of wrinkles in people or make them look dirtier I may not like that but I wouldn't call that "ridiculous" simply because it wouldn't conform to my particular tastes regarding the game, I'd merely state that I don't like it (or suggest how, in my opinion, it could be improved). Anyways, I have no harsh feelings towards you or anybody else for that matter, really, after all we are all here for the same reason (we like Skyrim enough to devote time to it) :)

Again, a matter of personal taste, after all if Bethesda would have done a perfect job and included high res and beautiful textures things such as the S.T.E.P. program wouldn't need to exist. As for being an adult mod, there you are right the STEP mandate do not allow that but again, mine was merely a suggestion and not an imposition or a demand of any sort. On a separate note, I didn't come to post here DEMANDING to be forcefully accepted, on the contrary, I PROPOSED my mods, knowing well acceptation final word was not up to me, so I don't really understand the hostility of your post, nor I understand what I did to warrant such hostility.

The final word on it is, of course, up to you guys. As for bodymod support I think 99% of people are using one (UNP) or the othe other (CBBE), as for the armors, aside some particular CBBE armors I still have to see an armor (vanilla or not) which doesn't fit the regular UNP body. On a totally separate note, I think S.T.E.P. should include at least the basic beautifications mods (UNP or CBBE and Apachii Hair) since practically everyone likes them and use one or the other, in my opinion.

I guess it all boils down to personal tastes in the end, for me either vanilla's and the other 2 quoted mods are way too not bright as in they don't stand out enough hence the mod, hence the proposal of it as an alternative (since I doubt I am the only one around with this very same opinion) :)

You captured almost exactly the reason behind my mod.

I am not suggesting my mod is better than any others as it's not my place to judge the work of others, not to mention the fact that my mod is fairly recent and much less known so it would be hard to "be agreed by the community as superior over the ones included". I was merely suggesting my mod as an alternative which may appease people that got bored by the overpopular eyes mods which you quoted. Fair enough, I will be posting a couple of in-game screenies to give a better idea; but which three eyes you'd like me to use?

Thank you but well, aside the alternate dark elves eyes set which are definitely not lore-friendly the others are lore-correct as far as colors go I believe. I mean if you take humans you can get all kind of "bright eyes" as for high elves/dark elves I am not sure what you mean by "unnatural" since we are talking of a fantasy scenario.
