About this mod

This is a complete compilation of all my released work and previously unreleased.

I was disappointed after waiting all this time for a complete overhaul of W3 textures and the HDRP updates are too far and few between and I reckon that I'll have no interest in playing the game by the time it's finished. So I decided to do it myself and here's the results of it so far which I am very pleased with. There maybe minor bugs and issues which should be expected with such a large project but you must remember that this is still in it's development stage and to be considered a WIP and all issues will be dealt with by the time of completion if possible because some problems are beyond fixes. So bear this in mind before downloading.

Included in Full Edition:

CLOUDS:               updated and made more detailed to fit better in all phases of the day. B&W clouds updated and reported 
                            bugs fixed, is also compatible with STLM.
BLOOD:                 updated and toned all textures and changed spill effect texture.
AQUA:                   updated textures and redone waterfalls, ripples, splashes and added water drips when exiting water. Looks the best version yet.
PEEPERS:               updated all irises, now main characters look closer coloured to vanilla and updated normal map.
WEATHER:             updated textures and normal maps.
SMOKE:                 smoke retextured and given separate noise effects and particles for different types to give more individuality.
EXPLOSIONS:         retextured explosion effects.
TEETH:                  updated the teeth to look clearer and less blurred.
FLORA and TREES: trees grasses and flora in the main game and HoS has been toned and made clearer. The normal maps have been redone to bring out the
                            detail.
EFFECTS:              signs and magic have been retextured. this is compatible with mods which change the effect via scripts, such as Better FX.
MISTS:                  given the mists, vapours and blowing dust, separate looks that fit more to their effects.
FIRE:                    redone the fire effects to be clearer and bit more elaborate.
HAIR:                   given the hair, beards, animal fur and hair, fur on clothes, a more natural appearance with finer hair effect. Recommended that Hair   
                           Works is turned on in your settings or undesired effects may occur.
TERRAIN:              raised the resolution to 2k and toned the textures to appear more natural. Redone all normal maps to bring out the detail. 
                           This includes rocks, cliffs and mountains.
STRUCTURES:       updated buildings, walls, ships, floors, roofs and wood structures. Redone normal maps to bring out the detail.
LIFE:                    updated textures and normal maps for animals and monsters.
DETAILS:              updated detail maps to bring out more detail throughout the game.
FLARES:               redone all the flare effects in both main game and B&W, for fires, candles, lens flares, magic effects, etc.
MISC:                   updated textures but not all normal maps but I have done quite a lot of them, of clutter, signs, corpses, people, clothes and armour and
                           lots more. I haven't done any of Geralts or main characters stuff.

And there's probably lots more that I have forgotten about and will add them to description if I recall anymore.

COMPATIBILITY
This is not compatible with anything which uses these textures or files used in this work. If you are scared of conflicts being discovered or too lazy to sort them out yourself then I recommend the Cut Down Edition in optionals.

INSTALLING:
If you don't use Mod Manager and manually install mods, choose one of the main files and drop it into you Mod Folder in your W3 directory, if you don't have a Mod Folder create one and name it 'Mods'.
