TechAngel85 Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 It is, for some reason I have Rich-dirty. I've corrected the shots in both posts above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoYouEvenModBro Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Honestly, I like Detailed Chests a lot more for the first comparison, but for the second comparison I think SMIM looks a ton better. Uh oh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z929669 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I fail to see the issue raised concerning the SMIM plugin. Detailed Chests textures seem to wrap around SMIM just fine. Could someone create a screen compare of the problem if it exists? Also, Detailed Chests is better overall, IMO. SMIM textures are also good, but not enough to warrant that the former should be overwritten by the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamingsrc Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Here is the "snowy chest" ... in Volunruud (maybe my memory betrayed me confusing Darkbrotherhood with Thieves Guild Quests): I have followed STEP 2.2.7 line by line with the load orders in my Wrye Bash and I have just deactivated "StaticMeshImprovementMod-FurnitureChestSnowFix.esp" from my load list and here is the result: Chest 1 Chest 2 Chest 2 texture problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So these are Detailed Chests wrapping around SMIM meshes? What does Detailed Chests look like with SMIM ESP active? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamingsrc Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I will take a screenshot (anyway with the esp activated the chest look very cool as I remember). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoYouEvenModBro Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I will take a screenshot (anyway with the esp activated the chest look very cool as I remember).If you don't select the 40 - furniture chest options, it should skip the SMIM textures/meshes and then you can just use Detailed Chest textures without a problem, right?

Let's see how Detailed Chests looks wrapped around SMIM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see how Detailed Chests looks wrapped around SMIM.Yea, but the Chest feature of SMIM is fairly new. We got along great without it for a while. I was under the impression that if you use the Chest Fix, SMIM will use its own Chest Textures and will not let you overwrite it. So basically, the Detailed Chest textures won't show up. I need someone to confirm that though. I am not home right now and will not be for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamingsrc Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I didn't test the 40 - furniture option, maybe this point need an investigation. Anyway here are the chests screenshots after activating SMIM furniture plugin: Chest 1 after activation Chest 2 after activation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were referring to the Furniture Chests option of SMIM. What are you talking about? Option 40 - Furniture Chests is where that ESP is, no?

gamingsrc Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Uninstalled SMIM 1.56 (via Wrye Bash Installer), deactivated the option "40 - Furniture ...", installed SMIM again, run BOSS, loaded the game and here is the result: Chest 1 without SMIM 40 - Furniture Option Chest 2 without SMIM 40 - furniture Option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z929669 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Yep, it looks like the SMIM textures are tied to the SMIM meshes and nothing else. I say we take DYEMB's advice and simply not use the 40 - option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamingsrc Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Personally I prefer much the look of SMIM snowy chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
