About this mod

Full physically based retexture of Stormy's Wooden Megapints with unique cubemaps for each metal material

Requirements
Permissions and credits
I really loved the idea of Stormy's Wooden Megapints - Base Object Swapper but I did not think that the textures were as realistic as the other PBR clutter textures that I had in my game. Since the permissions for that mod are open, I figured I'd upload the retexture I made for these objects so everyone else can enjoy them.

This covers basically every aspect of the visuals of that mod, I redid each of the textures to adhere to physically based texture design standards:
- Retextured contents of the mugs to add some foam and bubbles for realism
- New wood textures
- New metal texture
- New cubemaps for each metal type (edited the mesh files so that the mugs themselves no longer use the same cubemap as the liquid contents of the mugs)
- New normal maps that enhance the metal and wood detail (this fixes the "flat" shine on the wood in the original mod)
- New material map to emphasize the new cubemaps

There are two variants: 1k, and 2k. Use the 2k versions if you run the game in 1440p or 4k only, and the 1k textures for 1080p resolutions, otherwise you will likely get texture flickering. Or, honestly, just use the 1k versions because I think the 2k is overkill and 1k will never flicker on you. The difference is super minimal anyways because these textures are clean and relatively flat and devoid of tiny little details.

All screenshots were taken with 1k textures. Since the textures are clean, and saved in BC7 compression, higher resolution is really not necessary and adds minimal visual improvement.

You must install Stormy's Wooden Megapints before installing this, since this mod contains assets only and no esp or BOS config files.
