SKYRIMLE Dwemer Metal Retexture (by Langley)

[DoYouEvenModBro]

Just wanted to say that I'm using the scratched version of this mod and I really like it. I like the color better than vanilla. The scratches might be a bit uniform like johnnyboy88 says but I still prefer that to the vanilla look. Definitely adds a nice effect.

Looks like this one has too much uncertainty and that the textures could be a bit better. I'd rather wait for a Dwemer metal retex that is fashioned more closely to CaBaL's textures.

 

Removing from MT.

What do you mean by uncertainty?

[phazer11]

He's referring to the uncertainty with all of the Langley texture mod spinoffs. I'll have to look through these when I get back from sorting through the backlog of the mods in testing. I swear I have to take a break due to system and housing issues and the whole section falls apart!

Well, better late than never. I won't be around so much for a while, so I'll leave you guys with these. I only tested the rusty version, let's face it, everyone here is going to flip out saying the clean version is unrealistic and all that jazz so i wasn't about to the extra work.

I've been using the scratched version of this mod for a while and I love it :-)

 

Take some shots around Markarth too :-)

I have been a fan of this mod. It was the only one that got rid of some of those absolutely horrid dwemer textures.

[phryxolydian]

I agree! This is an excellent addition! Does this not qualify for testing? The Dwemer spider retext was just added, why is this not?!  :angry:

[DoubleYou]

Testing is closed for 2.2.9, and I'd like to keep it that way. I don't want to prolong the 2.2.9 release, and it is seeming to grow longer and longer.

[TechAngel85]

These textures have some weird glows along the ridges in the metal that doesn't exist in vanilla or SRO.

[lazygecko]

Thanks for the comparisons. I think I prefer the more contrasted look of the originals. Might also be related to how the reflections work?

 

I really wish we had a nice comprehensive retexture of the whole Dwemer tilesets. When I checked the 2K texture pack one, they just seemed to be the originals upscaled with some added detail and noise on top. Very minimal increase in fidelity for twice the performance cost, so not really worth it in my book.

I'd say for the next edition of STEP, this (and the texture workshop) are shoe-ins for mod testing. When the current tesing for 2.2.9 is done, these two mods will be the first to get added.

[Nearox]

Thanks for the screenshots. Guess I'll be tryign this mod out afterall.

[rootsrat]

Yup, same here.

It was me who added dwemer spider retexture mod into testing after it was officially closed, using my  skillz

[phryxolydian]

@lazygecko and Nearox: You're both welcome!

 

I have added just a few more comp. shots to the album from inside Understone Keep, so go check 'em out!

 

OT: Understone Keep Fountains and Rubble really should be part of STEP Extended, what the heck is up with all that fog and crap laying around in vanilla?
