There are a few rug and tapestry mods out there, but most are either the authors favourite artist, or persian rugs for the Dunmer and William Morris tapestries for the Imperials. Nothing wrong with either of those - but in my mind the Dunmer use more of a Native American weave, and the Imperials something closer to heraldic tapestries. So here's my high-res take on it all - the tapestries are all 512 by 1024.

New Tapestries! (1.2)

Um, there's only one rug mesh in the file. Don't think I'll be able to take any shots of the new ones until the rest are there. :D

It's primarily a texture replacer - only one of the meshes is replaced.

Haven't tested these out in game yet, but I looked through all of them and I have to say. They look really really nice! I'm not sure I like some of the really blatant native american designs but I love most of them.

One thing, tx_de_tapestry_07 looks like the lower right corner could use some tweaking, as it is right now it looks like the fabric is detached.

I'm rather worried about how the rugs will look ingame, I can't get a feel from the textures. I'll look for the first pics, cause I may not have time to take them myself :D

Ok, now I feel like an idiot. :bonk: Thanks for the heads up. :D

2 questions for y'all. One, what does this look like its supposed to be?
Two, is it any good?

I've got an update on the way that should blend the tapestries much better with their surroundings, and made the rug textures much less wacky (they have to be quite plain as there are only six types all over Vvardenfell :( )

You got me with this mod, Von Djangos, fresh new and quality textures for rugs and tapestries, I changed them all, this is a valuable modders resource too.
In my game all of them look more than good.
I've made an album that shows them ingame (well, in a hardmodded one):
http://s217.photobucket.com/albums/cc189/Zimnel_Redoran/Morrowind%20Decor/

Now every place have the flavour of something new and different. These rugs and tapestries blend with my game much better than the ones I had before.
The colors are soft and fit almost each place. I was stunned when entered Milie Hastien shop in Balmora, I love that rug, man!

Cheers, Zimnel! I'm only replacing the three more ornate rugs, to make them blend better with the surroundings. Take a peek;

I'm also playing around with weathering effects on the tapestries to make the brighter designs blend too;

Your carpets and tapestries look very nice, but some of them jump out from the brownish, dark, and warm colors of Morrowind too much for my tastes.

I like this one in particular, because it seems to blend into the surroundings very well.

I like the new rugs much better than the initial version! :thumbsup:

I was thrilled with your tapestries, but the rugs weren't to my taste, and planned on bifurcating them for my own use (I'm a historic dec arts/textiles person by both vocation and avocation, so I'm really picky about what I put in my world), but now I'll wait to see what the latest rugs look like in-game!

New Update!!

1.1 - Replaced rugs 3,4 and 5 with simpler designs that blend better
Increased de_tapestry 5 resoloution up to 512x1024
Replaced de_tapestry 4 and 9 with 'better' designs
Used a weathering effect on de-tapestry 8 to make it blend better
Fixed the alpha map on de_tapestries 7 and 13 so scraps of cloth weren't hanging off

There's also a little bonus for all you Temple lovers..

I felt the same way - hence the big update so quickly.

Hope they take your fancy!

I want to finish off the mod with Temple, Imperial Cult and Birthsign tapestries (which will be harder to get right.) Then I'll write up the readme with full resource permissions :)

Thanks for the update! Insta-downloading :D
The new textures are more discrete, and well, It's true they blend better with Morrowind surroundings :)
You did a great work, Von Djangos, and it's great news you're working on birthsigns, Temple and the Imperial Cult too!

The Mages Guild one is simply gorgeous! I want it in my mage lab ^ ^
The Fighter's Guild and the Imperial ones are perhaps a little too bright.
The Temple screen is very dark, but based on the colour of version 2 one, it was a bit clear. This one seems darker.

These look just awesome! I am really liking them. I think that all of them except the Fighter's Guild one blend well with the game. The Fighter's Guild one looks too much like real life to me and does not fit well in the Morrowind fantasy setting, in my opinion.
