Changelogs
Version 2.1
Fixed a bug with wrstonebase01.dds and wrstonebase02.dds where they had transparent holes in them, causing many black dots on each texture. These textures cover the small stone walls on the inside of Whiterun. You can view the unfixed image here: https://i.sli.mg/OxwgYh.jpg The red you see denotes where the transparency was on wrstonebase02.dds for your viewing pleasure.
Texture wrstonebase02.dds was not seamless, perhaps due to the problem above. This has been corrected by getting an 8px brush, finding a seamless area near it, then using a healing tool to remove the seam line.
I said I'd do this ages ago for Cabal, but I never received the source files to be able to do so. I still don't have them, but I used some trickery to get around this and blend everything nicely. I did request the source files, but perhaps Cabal was too busy and they never came. This is a great mod, and before I dedicate my time to other projects, I thought I'd finally keep my promise.

Donations
Both straight donations and premium membership donations accepted
This mod contains a set of 170+ hand-crafted textures for the whole of Whiterun. Features
Around 99% textures are from scratch (1% re-worked vanilla normal maps)
No funny 'up-scaling' or vanilla over-layed texture work
Two resolution sizes for you to choose from
Compatibility Not compatible with any other textures that have the same names. If you want to use this mod fully, make sure you overwrite any other textures as needed. Works perfectly with everything else!
Performance
I obviously recommend 2k for more higher-spec computers and 1k for medium to low-end computers. There will be a smaller VRAM increase for the latter. You will have to check each version out yourself to be 100% sure of performance though really.
Permissions
See the permissons tab at the top of the page. I do not allow this file to be distributed outside of the Nexus sites.
Installation
I recommend using a mod manager like Mod Organizer or Nexus Mod Manager for both installation and Uninstallation.
Recommendations
I truly like this mod to turn Whiterun into something pretty close to concept art. Have fun!
