I've enjoyed my game so much since installing your vibrant packs (and Wrinklyninja's Edge Detection and Cel Shader).

thank you very much.

Yeah I churned that butter into well better butter with bit of flavoring has well to it..

It hard to believe how much a vanilla texture can change sometimes how some things look with just a few changes.



thanks for the icecream ..enjoy



Just do not get caught looking at the beauty by this spider blending in with enviroments..Talk about camo he even blends in with dirt.. :ninja: came out no where I was dealing with gore rat's..sheez..

Aaah!

http://i827.photobucket.com/albums/zz198/gothemasticator/VTEDCS3.jpg is a nice pic with no spider (unless he's very well hidden).

No but their could be a farm animal of some type around somewhere, or fish down in water..

Bomret's and yours combined textures replacers match QTP3 while keep top performance.
Thank you so much.

I just noticed a spot with blend not right also, http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss28/myrrdin35/Vibrant%20textures/ScreenShot0.jpg (close up) and http://i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss28/myrrdin35/Vibrant%20textures/ScreenShot2-1.jpg (location is between Waymet Inn and the Fort across the road). Sorry the pics aren't too clear, a very cloudy day.

Hi again, Corepc.

Installing the 156 update noticed that it almost completely overwrites a mod called Enhanced Vegetation

Do you know of this mod?

It
1) has High-Res textures versio;
2) Costs no FPS loss according to the author and
3) Comes with option of resized trees (which is I use it mainly for but I can always go back to Natural Vegetation 200% and stick to your textures)

What would you say should I use? Your textures or Enhanced vegetations?
I've never had problems with your textures and never had problems with Enhanced vegetation
As one overwrites the other, there is no apparent reason to use both.
What do you say, Corepc?
To keep Enhanced vegetation or disable?

Thanks, once I figure out which one is causing the problem will get it fixed up. I thought I found it but it was the one..Most of these bad blends happen where one cell border end and another cell border start or along lod quads has well I have noticed..

I would like to hear from other people if they have noticed anymore in particular around Leyawiin ..



Either Use my Vibrant Tree Textures and Tree Billboards and esp for Enhanced Vegatation if you want that effect

or

Use Enhanced Vegetation Textures and Billboards

You do not want to mix my textures with ev texture they are very different once again..

I would like to uninstall qtp3 redimized (performance problems) and install your vibrant textures. Can I just install them on top of qtp3 or I should unsintall qtp3 before?

if it was me I would install qtp3 first so that you get rid of those qtp3 meshes has well..

then do the vibrant install

make sure you have uop stuff update has well..

Follow that and then Install the Vibrant 1.56 Upgrade Last..

Thank you for the answer. However, since I didn't made an OMOD of qtp3 I would like to know what do you suggest as an uninstall method. Its such a large mod...

download the qtp3 omod and install that then uinstall it is best way..

or

else just install everything in order that I posted above starting with UOP and overwrite all when asked..So that qtp3 meshes get overwritten by UOP ones..

Bomret Detailed Normal Maps will overwrite QTP3 ones and my Vibrant Textures will Overwrite QTP3 Textures..

CorePC-

I'm finally getting around to packing these up in BAIN collections and had a question about the SI textures. I know that you recommend using the Normal Maps of Bomret with the tamriel textures, but what about his SI normal maps?

What concerns me is that there are meshes with those, so if I package a BAIN archive so that the default is Bomret's SI Meshes and Textures and then have your textures as an alternate that can be installed on top of that - will that cause problems.

Or more simply - can I use your textures with both his normal maps and the meshes he made for SI?

Also - I guess there is no Bomret (or any other) enhanced Normal maps for SI Plants and Trees. I can't find any ... do you know of any?

thanks

I have not fully looked at Bomret SI yet..HIs textures and normal maps are much larger than vanilla would be and also they could be little diffrent..They are High Rez once again..

But the meshes just have parllax mapping enabled on them. So parallax mapping will only show up if the alpha channel on both texture and normal are set right. And well most of the SI stuff did not have that activated to begin with..

And no Bomret Enchanted Normal Maps for SI (Vanilla Sized) Yet at least..I have though about converting them back down to vanilla size to include with Mine..All Credit to bomret of course..

Will have to look into after I get the Overhaul done..and have a little more free time per say..

What is the version of the upgrade released Nov 15 2009 on tesnexus? I'm just little confused because I saw mention of v1.5 and Beta 1.55 in the release history (Post 2) and wasn't sure what version I already downloaded from tesnexus. Looking at the file dates on tesnexus, two files match the date 11-15-9: Vibrant Weather Textures 1-3 and Vibrant Weather Textures for SI 1-3. But then I see the file Vibrant Distant Normal 1-31 which is dated 9-5-9.
Sorry, I have formal software testing background.

1.0 Version for All
Weather 1.3 last
VibrantLODNormal 1.3

Everything that is on Tesnexus are the last public version that I have released.

I have only released the 1.55/1.56 Upgrade packages via megaupload so far.

A possible bug report here? I've got Vibrant Textures installed (all of them) and Bomret's Detailed Normal Maps for Vanilla, so I'm posting it here.

In http://i617.photobucket.com/albums/tt255/WrinklyNinja1/Oblivion%20Bugs/Oblivion2010-07-2111-45-44-75.jpg, the snow on the ground has a terribly pixelated effect. This is the case of an awful lot of snow textures in my game, including those on rocks, though the rock in the picture doesn't really show it. I was wondering what would be the cause for this, and whether there's a possible fix available?

Yes there is something I can do about to replace the horrible vanilla snow texture that does not look like snow..With a texture that look more like snow..

It is combo of both my changes to vanilla texture and bomret normal map.

===

I have redone both snow texture and normal map. Brand New Texture and Normal Map to replace the old ones. Snow will shine in light depending on how it reflects. Also Sun has affect on how it looks Hence why in this pic some areas are brigther than the other. Vibrant Sun at 12:00 the texture is pure white almost..this was taken at around 2:00 pm..

try these out, and turn on your AnsiTropicFiltering has well at least 4x..Not AntiAlaising (since you are using OBGE)

http://www.4shared.com/file/wX8n8okQ/VibrantSnowRevised.html

adding two more pics one at stables during foggy weather and one of texture itself..

why didnt i see this b4? this looks great, thx! finally some good looking textures minus performance hit!

Looks great! :thumbsup:

Ah, that snow is so much better now, thanks Corepc!

Guess you just where not looking for it.






You are more than welcome It really did need a new replacment after all. Has it did look really awful once again.

Now I need to make a good grass texture that is just has seamless has well. And fix a few other has well..

And almost time for thread 3..

Heh, I am using all Bomret and your vibrant textures, enjoying every bit of it and now snow!
Thank you! Christmas in advance, right?

Not really, Christmas in advance will be when , OOO, MMM, FCOM, Cobl all get released..
