I've started and finished my degree since the last time I added any textures to this mod, so I think now is as good a time as ever to give it a nice overhaul. My goals:
<ul><li>LC</li> <li>NMM installer</li> <li>remove glossy appearance</li> <li>make grass look better while fitting in with the art style</li> </ul>I am open to suggestions, if anybody really wants something.
11/23 Update: All batch programs I have tried to use save the textures in a format that makes the game crash. In a couple of days I will be moving for work, and will not have access to my desktop. If anyone wants to use what I have here, do whatever you want as long as you give me credit.
?Hey all, a while back (3 years ago... cough), I made a personal version of this mod which is more stylistic, and also has support for DLC, During that time, I contacted gutlessVADER if I could have permission to upload it, But by the time Vader responded (they said yes by the way), I had lost the files,
However, I have decided to try and re-do my work again,
Expect the release of SPTE (Skyrim Potato Textures Extended) (pronounced "spite") at an UNKNOWN DATE,
Things to expect from SPTE : - An artstyle (this means that not all textures will be descaled, stuff like book pages, the game map, onscreen blood, fog effects, which, with the original mod, usually cause some parts of the game to be hard to see, etc.) - Support for Dragonborn, Dawnguard and Hearthfire, (TTFWC only has support for the Base Game)
It's pretty easy to make, all it requires is patience (I have to unload the textures from the DLC files AND manually descale each texture, while also being aware of which texture is which)
I tried to use it with Intel i5-3750 CPU (8GB RAM, 4 cores). No GPU. Natively on WIndows 10 (or at least >=8). The game was still unplayable performance wise. Maybe I was unreasonable to expect it to work.
This mod makes everything look kinda s#*!, which I know is the point and wouldn't mind, if it increased my performance.
However, for some strange reason I am getting maybe 2 fps more than vanilla with everything set to minimum or turned off, which kinda defeats the point of the mod no? From ~20 to ~22 fps, or something along those lines.
(Adding the ENP that was "made" for this mod gets me to a solid 7 fps too :/ although that isn't really this mod's fault.)
Hi so like im kinda confused to like where do i put the files cuz my wrye bash isnt working so like do i just drop the files in the Data folder or what?
Please help if you can. I downloaded this mod and I use mod organizer 2. I only have this mod selected and my game crashes right when I click on new game. No loading screen and I will have to sit through the intro. The game just crashes. It is SE edition. PLEASE HELP
wtf? how? even my acer with a 5th gen i3 @2.1GHz w/intel integrated 520 drivers and 2GB of ram can run this game at 20fps. what is your computer from 2002?
I have a core i5 and a GT730 and the game crashes whenever I try opening a save or starting a new game. I even enabled mods (I'm was using this mod on special edition which I downloaded through the XBox app).I'm going to try re installing the game but I am assuming it wont work

2023 Edit :
No progress :3
