Hi guys.I just wanted to ask your opinions on how to get beautiful looking Cyrodill and Shivering Isles as well as the NPCs living on this huge world!
So,firstly what combination would you choose to get the best from Vibrant textures Cyrodill and SI,qtp3,Bomret shivering isles textures,bomret detailed normal maps,really textured normal maps?(of course I know that some of them cannot work great together,but for example I can use qtp3 meshes to get parallaxed cities)

Second question: there is any great alternative to TNR all races final?Except XEO

I use QTP3 + Bromret's Shivering Isles textures + a bunch of other texture replacers that the previously mods don't cover.

I think it looks nice and I'm happy with that combination :P

http://matthewkaine.blogspot.com/ deals with quite a few mods that deal with making the atmosphere or Cyrodiil more breathtaking. The majority of the mods related to this were discussed back in February and March, so be sure to start there. Right now I'm currently using Bomret's Normal Maps with Really Textured Normals on top. It's the best choice if you want more detail without changing the original look of the game or taking a huge performance hit. However, I can also say that I've tried QTP Redimized in the past and liked it quite a bit as well. It just depends on what you're personal preferences are. Check out the videos and discussions on my blog and make the decision on your own. That's the best way to get the results your hoping for, at least in my opinion.

On a side note, TNR is by far the most comprehensive face replacer for both Cyrodiil and the Shivering Isles, but if that look doesn't interest you, be sure to take a look at http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5288 if you're interested in alternatives for the women or http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=24003 for both male and female NPCs. However, I've never personally tried the latter of those two.

Hope I helped, and good luck!
