Texture Notes
The vanilla SE mountain textures contain a lot of dark areas making it have more contrast. When creating these textures I focused more on balancing the coloring so there is less contrast but more detail. If you prefer the more contrasted look, you may want to choose one of the non-vanilla color options. Those still do not have the same level of contrast as the vanilla but they tend to have more colors in them to make them more visually interesting.
Installation
Un-Installing
Since these are just textures they can be removed from your load order at anytime.
If you ran DynDOLOD after installing these textures, I advise running it again with your new textures after uninstalling this mod. Your distant mountains might not match if you don't.
Compatibility
This mod will work with any mountain meshes that use the vanilla textures, such as ERM - Enhanced Rocks and Mountains. This mod is not compatible with either version of Majestic Mountains.
Credits
The color textures were all obtained from my LE copy of the game. AI up-scaling was done with Topaz Photo AI. Normal maps and parallax textures were created using Adobe Substance 3D Sampler. Image recolors were done using Adobe Photoshop.
Permissions
This mod is shared with open permissions. You can port it to other versions of the game (including consoles).
- 4k mountain textures (this is the vanilla resolutions for mountain textures)
- Five Color Options: Vanilla (Light Gray), Brown, Dark Gray, Rust, and a warmer version of the vanilla texture
- Optional Parallax Textures
How were the textures for this mod made?
- The textures from this mod are an AI upscale of the mountain textures from LE. Those textures were 1024 x 1024 and were up-scaled by a factor of four to make them 4096 x 4096 like the mountain textures in SE. I decided not to use the SE textures because those had lost some of the original details contained in the LE textures when they were up-scaled for SE.
- The normal maps and parallax textures were created using the new up-scaled LE textures in Substance 3D sampler.
