Reworked face textures

Considering the Ashlanders lived exclusivly on Vardenfell (The volcano which exploded) and whatever remains of their population likely fled to Skyrim along with the other refugees, i'd say pretty likely.

Perhaps some ashlander refugees who didn't flee to Solhstein could have settled in eastern Skyrim. Interesting, let's keep in touch so we can further develop this idea in the future, it could stand for a very interesting mod.

Now back to the topic, I'm almost ready for release. I've finally moved on from Xenius' textures and made my own 2048 base. Here are some pictures:

Got to say, these look fantastic! I personally prefer Xenius' for use in my game since they are less 'perfect'/supermodel, if you see what I mean, so I won't be using it myself, but the work is absolutely brilliant. Great job, I can see this being really popular =)

See, now, sometimes stuff like this makes me wonder... I mean, i love Skyrim, Oblivion and Morrowind, don't get me wrong, but Bethesda puts months if not years of work into these, using profesional graphics artists, and yes someone can redo the textures, in their free time, over a period of 2 weeks, and come out with a better product.. At least on the humans, i personally find the Elves too Homo sapien-ized... But thats matters for another thread :P

To be honest, vanilla character textures were good this time around. Well, at least they don't suck (remember Oblivion's 128x128 face textures? Epic trolling times). They're well optimised maps for consoles, meant to appeal a wide number of players. Never Bethesda has made an effort to pull the photorealistic effect in their works, it's a matter of style. What they fail to see, in my opinion, is that some PC players expect something more. Face/head textures are 512x512, which is just ok for a console game, but falls pretty short in most PC, specially considering their higher resolutions compared to the usual 720p consoles. At least you think they could've saved the face normal map textures in a lossless image :psyduck:.

 

Anyway.
