TechAngel85 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 These texture do not look too far off from chrome (dirty and scratched chrome). Not a fan. The only time you get metal that shiny is if you buff and polish it which is unrealistic to do on armor, IMO.

However it's very subjective to taste.
DoYouEvenModBro Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 The Ancient Falmor Armor from EotW Dawnguard DLC Textures Remastered is way better in my opinion. 3
TechAngel85 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Some shots:Vanilla (Current STEP) >> Ancient Falmor Armor Overhaul My verdict is an "I'll pass". This is made of moonstone. What do we know about moonstone? TES Lore only really tells us the color; creamy white to yellowish. So if we take what real moonstone looks like, this armor doesn't match up. "Moonstone is a member of the orthoclase feldspar mineral family. It is a combination of potassium aluminum silicate. The stones have a crystal structure that shimmers when the light hits them." They shimmer...not glare in the light; however, this retexture has gone over the top with it, IMO. It may not show up that well on screens but in-game the shininess is very out there and over the top for my tastes. I think I'll wait for CaBal's retexture and pass on this.
z929669 Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Agree that current STEP (BoS?) is better. I think we can remove from testing unless the advocates care to defend.
DoubleYou Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 BoS doesn't include this armor. I haven't touched this.
DoYouEvenModBro Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 You guys can probably remove this. All it does is add an ugly shiny effect. 1

DoYouEvenModBro Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) My fault. I should have used better wording. Maybe an 'unnecessary' shiny effect would have been more appropriate. Edited March 18, 2014 by DoYouEvenModBro
TechAngel85 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 So far there's not much support for this so unless enough rejects in the next 48hrs, Z's, my own and a few other votes will carry this out to be removed from testing.

WilliamImm Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Uh, the reputation system was implemeted here to curb posting like these. I repped up the original post (because I did agree with you on that particular part), but use that instead of making +1 posts or the like.
Neovalen Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 That implies people reading these pay attention to them which I have seen no evidence to support yet. :) Granted the system is still new. Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk
TechAngel85 Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Make sure that mod has it's own thread and promote it there. Not here.
