    Really nice textures ! But I have one little problem : FRAMERATES ! Compared to MET this pack cuts my FPS in half ! Is it normal ? Do I have to adjust some settings ?

    (PS : I have an OC RTX3080 + i7 9700k + 32GB RAM).

      Those specs shouldn"t even notice these textures, something is wrong.

    This is my favorite texture mod so far for Morrowind, thank you for blessing my game with this eye candy!

    All windows seem to be purple after installing this. I am running OpenMW 0.46.0 if that matters. I tried reinstalling and overwriting the old textures again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
    Edit : I Have noticed that the windows are only doing this at night. During the day they look fine. Hot Pink / Purple at night.

      Are you using any other mods/textures? This should not be changing the color of windows it just replaces the textures. Maybe a mod that effects lighting?

    Hi, I'm interested in using this mod for OpenMW but I am unsure of how to get it to properly work. Would the Textures folder go into the data folder of OpenMW the same as any other mod?

      The textures folder goes in the data folder of where you installed Morrowind. The up-scaled textures will show up when you run OpenMW.

    From a brief, partial comparison, the armour and character textures here tend to look less noisy and more natural compared to Morrowind Enhanced Textures'. Bonemold armour in particular looks great. MET generally excels with landscape and architecture textures. I might combine the best of both mods for my own use if I get around to it.

    I've noticed some textures have transparency around the edges when they probably shouldn't, though. An example from A_Wolf2_Groin.dds:

      Oh, it seems this transparency's also present in the vanilla textures as well as MET's upscales, my mistake!

      Yes a lot of the expansion has hidden transparency its annoying. Also I agree ESRGAN does landscape and buildings very well.

    In case you plan on updating the mod, there has been a lot of progress with ESRGAN lately. Combining it with gigapixel would yield even better results.

    GUI to automate upscaling (even supports DDS) : https://github.com/ptrsuder/crop-upscale-merge
    New models : https://github.com/alsa64/AI-wiki/wiki/Model-Database

    In particular, running all textures through the BC1 denoise take3 model yields very interesting results when upscaling. The model removes pretty much all artefacts created by lossy DDS compression (restore gradients, fix colour bleeding and so on).

    Better yet, apparently someone found the uncompressed textures : https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/45551

      Thanks for the Endorsement! I used the uncompressed textures from the GOG version of Morrowind. I've also played around with ESRGAN but I think its better in the hands of the people who made Morrowind Enhanced Textures.

    If you could make comparison of these textures with Morrowind Enhanced Textures, it would be cool.

      Looking at textures from both, Gigapixel looks superior in most cases. More detailed, less artifacts.

    This looks fantastic for most of the world textures. For armor, weapons, and faces however it leaves a lot to be desired. Have you considered using alternate methods on faces?

      Strange the other person said the exact opposite.

    Would like to see a video of this in good quality so I can figure out if I can finally ditch 20+ texture mods. I will do a small preview video of this mod if it is permitted

      I couldn't get OBS to record Morrowind, but after an hour of gameplay, I describe this mod as a lite graphics enchanter. I didn't see any performance decrease during recording, with 4x anti-aliasing in MGE XE. Nature was a bit low resolution, but armor, clothes, faces, ingredients, potions, books, and wood textures were really good and I was especially surprised how good potions and armor looked.
