    Review after 50 hours ingame.

    So what we have here?, another AI upscale mod, throwing textures in a pipeline, press a button and wait a view hours ?No, absolutly NO, the Textures in this mod are truly a remaster, you know the remaster series from HalkHogan ? Vanilla Remaster has the same quality, for the whole game !. I have tried all upscaler mods, and all have the same problem, white lines, details looking more like a painting than a texture, and the depth and material illusion is mostly gone.

    Waqas textures looking not like an upscale or AI generated fake detail picture, they look like real high quality all new handmade textures. What you get here is a truly remastered 2024 quality mod.From Markarth to Winterhold, from Riften to Whiterun, any City looks fantastic, from the smallest things like Urns and Pots to the biggest building and objects like Mountains and Lands, from Armors and Weapons to Animals, Caves and Dungeons, you will experience a whole new level of detail.

    When you pair parallax, and all this fantastic meshfixes on nexus with Vanilla Remaster and when your machine can handle, on top a great ENB and weather mod, you have a next gen Skyrim. When you enjoy the true vibe of Vanilla Skyrim, but never found a good texture replacer, and you are ending up using other texture replacer, but you know all this textures are not realy what you want, you are now on your journeys end, welcome to Waqas Remaster, no more compromises, just high quality next level retextures.

    Thank you Waqas for this amazing epic mod, for all the hours and work, for your effort and your true love for Skyrim.

    Half joke half truth, this is the best mod ever because:
    1) it  makes the whole game look better with minimum efforts from user;
    2) it does not block Steam achievements;
    3) it does not require SKSE;
    4) it does not require extra steps like some ENB, also no messing with .ini files etc
    5) it can be installed / uninstalled / updated zillion times and it will not break my save;
    6) it is easy to install / re-install the game at another computer, just unpack this mod and pick up my save, no Wabbajack no other tools needed!
    7) no compatibility issues;
    For real the best mod ever, no cons at all besides size, LOL, which is expected :-)

    I tried your mod many hours, here are my conclusions. 
    I will add more and different as  bitl22 wrote but same good).

    1) Performance 100%
    2) Conflicts with other mods 0
    3) Stability 100%
    4) Graphic Glitches 0

    I will vote this mod for sure, as Mod of the Month so long December arrives, cause now end of November, is no use.

    This mod is amazing. I play on a MacBook Air and this rescale has seriously improved my FPS, not to mention the fact that everything looks so much better! Thank you!

    I swear by this mod.

    This is hands down the best Upscaled + Reworked Vanilla texture mod out there! and I have tried many.

    1. I play skyrim on a Laptop with no dedicated gpu and felt no performance downgrade whatsoever
    2. It has no compatibility issue with any other mods
    3. All the reworked textures look fantastic and nothing feels out of place 
    4. Easy Installation. Replace the original texture files in skyrim data folder and you're good to go (create a back up if u want)
    5. No Graphical issue (atleast for me)

    Thankyou for making this mod Waqas textures. 10/10

    Likely a very dumb question - Is using this along with "Cleaned Skyrim SE Textures" a bad idea?

    I'm only using the core files 1, 2, and 3; I'm not using USSEP. After installing them, everything works fine. However, after uninstalling all of them, the campfires turn blue. Only the rocks surrounding the campfire lose their texture. After reinstalling all three files, the texture still isn't added. I've tried everything. I can only uninstall everything and try again. I don't have many mods; most are interface mods and add-ons.

      there is a mod that changes the camp fire rocks meshes to custom one and you are missing that texture like ember xd or any fire mod that modifies it you need to fix that its not the fault of this one

    Talos bless you!  It's like someone finally turned the focus knob and got everything to become sharper and clearer.  

    *MUAH*  for a job well done.  (That's a chef's kiss) Treasure it.  I don't hand out many of those.  

    12 out of 10 would recommend.

    I havent played/modded Skyrim in maybe 3 years? I recently came back to mod, do another play through (we all know it 90% mods and 10% play) and stumbled upon these textures... Im not someone who usually leaves comments, and Ive been on this site for a long time! But I have to say man, with very minimal effort and even less impact to performance, these textures are AMAZING! I usually would install a base like this and then hand pick character, clothing, gear, furniture, etc textures... but I dont even want to put anything else on top of these! Well done bro! Its even more impressive to realize this isnt AI or some kind of hands off process, these are all done piece by piece and it really shows. Super impressed!

    I might have found a bug. Hermaeus Mora tentacles are bugging out block texture.

      I'm on 0.90 optimized.
      Is your files organized as follows: 
      • 0: Animations.bsa
      • 1: Interface.bsa
      • 2: Meshes.bsa
      • 3: Misc.bsa
      • 4: Shaders.bsa
      • 5: Sounds.bsa
      • 6: Textures.bsa
      • 7: Voices.bsa
      • 8: VoicesExtra.bsa

        Could I just download BSA 6 to fix the issue?

    1) How you do all that without AI?

    2) Can we use this with 1.5.97+? (since cc content is included)

      Yes it works
  14. Thank you so much for this tremendous mod!!!

    I'm using your textures as a base for Enderal SE and they're truly enhanced in every way, with no performance loss. I appreciate that you did something this massive, with fantastic results.

    This mod is proof that Skyrim's "stylized realism" art style remains excellent (just like The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess). This is my new favourite texture mod.

    Highly recommend everyone to use this, especially if you want performance alongside any intense Reshade shaders or even an ENB/Community Shaders.
