Buggy textures

Post » Sun Mar 09, 2014 4:20 pm

Hello! Long story short: I'm playing MW on a very old machine that can barely cope with the game. I decided to help it a little and installed the Low-Fat Morrowind Mod (texture replacer). It actually works and most textures look decent enough, but there're some that turned out particularly bad or even completely bugged. So now I'm trying to find out what the names of those textures are to replace them with the default ones. Right now I'm looking for all the textures related to skies (sky proper, clouds, stars etc), the spiderwebs that you see in tombs and dungeons and everything to do with journal. I'll be very grateful for hints and/or maybe for discovering a way to actually get a texture's name right in the game, so I wouldn't need to bother you people with this anymore. Thanks in advance!

Think these are all the sky-related textuers:
Tx_Sky_Blight.dds
Tx_Sky_Clear.dds
Tx_Sky_Cloudy.dds
Tx_Sky_Foggy.dds
Tx_Sky_Overcast.dds
Tx_Sky_Rainy.dds
Tx_Sky_Stormy.dds
Tx_Sky_Thunder.dds
Tx_Stars.dds

These are constellations and stuff:
Tx_Stars_Mage.dds
Tx_Stars_Nebula.dds
Tx_Stars_Nebula2.dds
Tx_Stars_Nebula3.dds
Tx_Stars_Thief.dds
Tx_Stars_Warrior.dds

I'm really not sure how you'd get the texture names in game without a bit of a laborious process. Bring up console, click on item you want to find the texture for, console window title should give you the object's name. Write that down or use beta comments. Leave game, open up CS and find object in CS. Look in CS to get the model name (.NIF file). Open up model in NIFSkope and that'll tell you what the textures are.
