Needing a bit of help with vertex shading

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 6:02 am

Hello all,

I started a new Morrowind character recently and I wanted a good house mod, but I didn't find anything like what I'm looking for, so I decided to create my own.

With this mod, I'm adding a house to (guess what?) Balmora, just between the pawnbroker house (Dralasa Nithryon's) and the city wall.

The thing is, I want my house to blend in with the surroundings as seamlessly as possible, and I want it to actually feel like a part of the original game (I never liked most of house mods because of that, and because they're usually too uber), but I lack expertise in exterior modding (well, sincerely speaking, I totally svck at exteriors), and I never tried vertex shading before.

I played with it a bit now, but I'm trying to match it with the brown vertex shading surrounding the pawnbroker's house and I'm simply incapable of doing it.

So I just wanted to ask if someone can give me the right values (RGB) for that, or if there is any way of getting those values off of the original vertex shading. Oh, and if you know any tips related to exterior modding, including landscape editing, I would be thankfull (I just want it to look as natural and "vanilla" as possible).

Thanks in advance,
Daedren.

If you check through http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1113430-wip-rethan-plantation/ thread, I imparted the totality of my exterior modding skills. :D

Hope it helps.
