This mod is basically an update for 'XCE - Xenius Character Enhancement'. Xenius had to use 512x512 textures for warpaint and whatnot in XCE because of game limitations.

 

'XCE - Warpaint and Dirt' can now, thanks to the latest version of SKSE, use the full 2048x2048 textures as Xenius originally intended.

 

 

So, do you think it's worth adding it to STEP?

Ah yes ! Finally an update to warpaints. It looks like a basic addition for STEP imho. :)

I'm loving these war paints.

My only thing is why used such high resolutions for such a small thing in-game. 1024x would be the max for me on something like this as my 1GB VRAM limits me. It's like using 1024x textures for the eyes. What's the point for such a small object in-game? I realize that increased resolution means increased detail, but it's just too much for me and my machine to run 2048x textures on such small things.

They seem a bit unrealistic to me. I mean I wouldn't expect paint to be that sharp on the face or the tattoos.

I would also like to see them on vanilla models. I don't think those are vanilla models he's using.

Thanks! I think I'll be using the old for my setup. I never see my character's face anyway.

Xenius replied to my request for 1024k warpaint textures:

 

Unfortunately it appears the warpaint only works on the player character. As the textures are only 2.66MB each' date=' it shouldn't be much of a performance hit.[/quote']

 

Well, I guess that means that we arn't going to be seeing reduced resolution warpaints. However, unless you have so many VRAM-demanding mods, or are stacking ridiculous amounts of warpaints, then I guess it would be OK.

2.66MB might not seem like a lot but when you're using something like STEP on 1GB of VRAM, every little bit helps!
