I wish we could get screenshots of Cabal's mods without ENB on. It is hard to tell what they truly look like because ENBs can differ so much from profile to system. I'd say we compare this to Skyrim Realistic Texture Overhaul Dragonborn by Frozunswaidon. I live this mod and have been using it for landscapes. It would be good to compare the two.

I use that mod for the Raven Rock Textures. The Telvannia Textures I use from Telvanni Reborn. Cabal's Landscape Textures don't impress me that much although I'm sure it's a matter of tastes and whether or not an ENB is being used. I still use SRO as my main texture pack with a few other mods here and there. The SeriousHD Solstheim textures aren't bad.

How much work you got to do until STEP can just say, download all the CABAL SKYRIM textures, either 1k or 2k ?

I think your well on your way to let STEP focus on other modding issues besides the selection of texures if you keep it up like this :)

That is enough to impress most, I'm sure enough, there will always be "nay" sayers.

Like I mentioned in the SR-LE thread , if you keep it up with the retextures and Kryptopyr with the gameplay - stats and similar related overhauls... well...

lets just say my modlist won't be as long as it is right now ^^

It is Solstheim..... just make a greyscaled image and you wont be able to see the difference from vanilla! :)

 

That aside, then I look forward to testing these out! Been a while since I messed around raven rock!

 

However I must admit that I never go on your screenshots, since.... well most of the time they are not really that good! :P

Your screenarchery skills are not even remotely equal to your texture making skills!

Keep up the great work!

"nay people" is ok Ogham...i understand everithyng... envy ,ignorance...everything.

but at least should install mods before expressing points of view compulsively without a base and a reason...weird that nay people never pops up with a comparison shots... just empty words.

 

my screens are ugly as hell Aiyen ... and they must be so...are not promotional... just a test on poor settings...if textures work there...will be great elsewhere

I am currently trying to repair my PC so I can't test these in games. I can only go off the screenshots which never really impress me. That's most likely not your fault. it's hard to go off of screenshots. Like I said, I'm sure it's just a matter of taste and preference. A lot of people like your landscape mods cabal. You have many supporters. I didn't mean to insult you or anything. I'm just an SRO fanboy and find that many texture modders never really live up that standard. It isn't personal. I know a lot of people here use your landscape textures over SROs. It's just preference, like I've said.

.... /snip

"STEP" is not saying anything about CaBal's textures. Individuals are. (like you and DoYouEvenModBro).

 

I personally can't wait to try these and the others SRB brought up. We need Dragonborn textures badly.

 

Is this total DB landscape coverage? (I can look myself ... someday)

 

EDIT: ... and screens are fine for texture compares, as long as they are comparable screens using comparable settings (preferably same source) ... evan CaBaL's ;)

In game these textures look great - no question (subjectivity aside). The artwork on vanilla was always fairly good but was never properly realised which is why SRO's larger vanilla files looked so good. This is another take, artwork is up there with original ideas but it also different, better and more coherent. Game is at least as stable with these as without in that they are clean and fit pretty seamlessly into the game IMHO.

Smile' date=' are you using Starac's new DB SRO Textures that he hasn't released? Because the original SRO doesn't touch Dragonborn.[/quote']

Probably best not to even ask people that on these forums. Starac has not shared with many, and we don't want to promote doing so here.

 

We should only be looking at vanilla, CaBaL's work, SeriousHD, and the stuff by Frozunswaidon (and taking extreme care to choose our words carefully when describing our opinions of others' hard work)

 

EDIT: We should also take into account the importance of:

  • improving the vanilla look without too much deviation stylistically
  • appearance of these textures in the context of the overall landscape of STEP (consistency beats out high quality, as HQ can stick out like a sore thumb if it contrasts too much ... unless we can get that all over the place ;) )
