About this mod
Complete texture overhaul with a painterly style. Formerly Toon Skyrim Redux.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
This file is meant to be used with Kanj's Borderlands Textures.
I also highly recommend using this with Hel's Cel Shading Reshade.
I feel that this combination looks pretty nice for now while we revamp this mod, try it and enjoy. Here is a video with that combo in action in Skyrim VR:
We will be updating this page soon and changing over to a more modular release!
PERMISSION NOTICE
This mod aims to change the look of Skyrim overall with a variety of texture replacers of varying flavours.
This mod doesn't retexture/remodel any items added by other mods. I would like to add patches to cover other weapon and armor mods but I need to acquire permission from those mod authors before I can do such a thing.
Here are mods that I have received permission to patch from their respective authors and have a patch for on the files page:
Bandolier by Dragten for Basic and Pixar (Tested and working for Special Edition Bandolier Classic version 1.2.1)
Many items in this mod use the vanilla textures. I've detailed all the textures added by the mod, but some items won't have details until I get to the vanilla textures that are used in the main mod.
Cloaks of Skyrim by Nikinoodles and Nazenn for Basic and Pixar (Tested and working for Special Edition CoS version 1.2.1)
Bloodstone Chalice Reborn by Gamwich and Nazenn for Basic and Pixar. (Not tested by me as I don't have a vampire character.)
Use Vortex or Mod Organizer(Preferred method)
or
Manually place all files in your Skyrim/data/ folder
Vortex and MO are the better option if you plan to uninstall it. It adds a lot of files and manual uninstallation can be tricky if you have any other mods that add loose textures.
It's important to remove the previous version before updating to a new version or different flavour.
This mod alone doesn't look great without ENB and has been designed with Tetrachromatic ENB in mind. This is the ENB preset we have used in all of our screenshots and videos, without it there is a noticeable difference in the look.
Get it here:
Tetrachromatic ENB by Sloth
Also be sure to check out our ASO ENB page for a fix for shiny surfaces. Also in the future we will be uploading our own ENB presets (Based on Tetrachromatic ENB) for this mod there.
Sovngarde Font by Mist
This is the font I am using on the roadsigns in Basic Toon Flavour and it's a very nice looking font that fits the game very well.
No Blood by Citizen86
Not especially necessary, but some might feel like it looks better without blood.
