    It changed a little too much in Bruma for my tastes. A well-made mod, but it was not for me

    I second woodtortiose.. Your Bruma looks great and a compatibility with Better Cities would be awesome!

    Also because it seems that from the next release they won't have modularity any longer, so to play your mod will have to drop ALL BC's cities

    I love the way this mod makes Bruma and the surronding areas look. Awesome job! I use Better cities however, and the two conflict. Most of the problems I can fix by disabling (a few floating sconces, rocks and trees clashing with Dalls house) but the main problem of land height I dont know how to correct. I suspect that the problem is that better cities lowers the ground level and Dalls Bruma raises it back, causing some of the houses' doors to be partially buried and screwing up the cool little pond/waterfall that BC adds behind the player house. Is there anyway to apply dalls textures to BC's ground meshes? I dont think I can choose between the two!

    This is brilliant. Well I should say it looks brilliant from the screenshots. I have yet to download it, but I will after writing this comment.

    No, i neither use HDR or Bloom, i hate it actually.
    Will remove the reflection map shader though and
    have a look.

    olafreinhardweyer you seem to be using HDR and I don't for this very reason. HDR is very mixed bag of tricks and it works reasonably well only if everything in game is kept murky and very dark otherwise your light overload symptoms are standard. Switch to game Vanilla settings or bloom if only for test and you might be surprised how much better these textures and everything else in game will start to look.
    Reflection map you are using will just elevate these problems even further.
    Is there a practical way around this? Unfortunately there are no options it is one or another. Choice is yours and blame is not mine.

    I had high hopes for the mod, but there are a few things, that spoil it for me. IT MIGHT BE NOT EVEN DALLS FAULT!.
    First the positive things:

    1. I have a GS8400 Graphic Cards only and 2 GIGs. I had
    no FPS issue whatsoever :-)
    2. No pathing problems as descirbed below occured.
    3. This is compatible to MMM Farm Animals or Hunting and
    Crafting (The pelt farm's still there).
    4. Everything in this mod that has to do with wood
    (floors, walls, roofs etc.) does look exceptionally
    good :-) :-) :-)

    Second the negatives

    Please note i have a reflection map replacer installed,
    however it should hardly be responsible:

    Everything that is white in this mod is just to bright
    and hinges on the unnatural:

    1. The interior white walls simply hurt my eyes. They a also
    very much to clean. The substance does not look real
    to me. This is also a logical fault on Dalls part.
    If a people are surrounded by blinding white snow
    (even vanilla) they would prefer interiors easing
    their eyes. To sum it up, the white interior walls
    need to get toned down. Note, that those walls look
    a bit better in e.g. the Mages Guild Basement.
    So it is a question of how these walls reflect light,
    guess.

    2. I absolutely hate the shiny glacier like roofs.
    They not at all look like frozen snow.

    3. Also, to me, the landscape snow texture does not
    look real to me.

    Solution for the negatives: Use Detailed Terrain map
    instead and use Vanilla roofs.

    All in all i would give this file a rating of 7. Some
    small fixes to the above and it gets the 10, it almost
    deserves. As i said, the wood and other things i probably
    didn't even notice are really excellent.

    Dall, please improve, if you agree to my comment :-)

    polts that sounds really excessive. Your PC specs seem to be more then adequate so I wonder. I have suspicion that it might have to do with path-grids and calculations for use of slope inclination multipliers or simply with some very high video settings you are using.

    Practical advice go in slowly or start shooting them from afar so you are attacked by just one or two animals at time.
