AlexVestin Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Keep reading and I'll try to explain what I mean. I'm working on a little special mod for skyrim wich needs me to replace ALL snow textures and the like. I could really use some help finding these specific texture files cause I feel like I've looked through all the existing ones several times now. I'm replacing all the snow textures with something a little bit different, SAND, so I need to find all the default ones. -More screenshots on the second page- http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/7674/pic01x.jpghttp://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2559/pic02ux.jpghttp://img4.imageshack.us/img4/7425/pic03pd.jpghttp://img442.imageshack.us/img442/7458/pic04du.jpghttp://img831.imageshack.us/img831/406/pic05k.jpg TOP priority!I'm trying to find the file wich tells the game what snow colour or texture to apply ontop of an object. This one: http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/9825/snowx.jpgI'm talking about the snow texture that the game automatically applies on the upper surfaces of objects. In the game it always seems to be the same white. It also seems to be using the original objects normalmap as a guide to know where to put the snow. This is the one I need help with the most. It can't stay white if I'm going to finish this mod. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The other texture I'm trying to find is this one. It's the texture for the snow that blows along the ground.The windgusts of powder snow. http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/6357/wind1l.jpghttp://img835.imageshack.us/img835/62/wind2.jpgI want to know if It is possible to retexture it AND make it another colour other than white. IF it's possible to change the colour of the snow blowing, I'd apprecieate if someone told me how to change the texture and colour of the snowflakes too.And all the other particles blowing around in the air. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just to be clear. I've got tons of textures replaced with my own new ones and the game looks a lot different already!I know how to extract and replace textures, so I only really need help getting some more info on these textures showed in the pictures. Let me know if I need to give a better explenation.All help is warmly welcomed! Edited November 27, 2011 by AlexVestin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexVestin Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) I'll probably get some screenshots in here later. Not really a hammerfell mod, but it does make the snowy places much more interesting with colour. Edited November 27, 2011 by AlexVestin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexVestin Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 I've updated the first post so now it's more clearly visible what I need to fix. And what I need help fixing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghogiel Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 The snow will be a weather effect, so you can probably turn it off in a plugin file. But I assume there is a tetxure associated with it. try the snow one in shadertests.... The wisps of powder snow that get blown about will be a texture, I guess in FX..

Psientist Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 No idea, have you tried the White.dds? Seeing as how it's a 32x32 texture that is just white it would make sense if that was the one being used considering how it looks in the game :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexVestin Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 The snow will be a weather effect, so you can probably turn it off in a plugin file. But I assume there is a tetxure associated with it. try the snow one in shadertests....Tried to change that texture "shadertestsnow01.dds" just now. Nothing. Still white ingame. I have no idea how to work with plugins, and I'd rather not turn it off completely. The wisps of powder snow that get blown about will be a texture, I guess in FX..I found a texture called "fxgroundwhisps.dds", but changing the colour of that texture file did nothing. It was still white ingame. No idea, have you tried the White.dds? Seeing as how it's a 32x32 texture that is just white it would make sense if that was the one being used considering how it looks in the game :PTried to change that now. I have no idea if it really changed anything at all. I tried changing "White.dds" and "White_EM.dds". They didn't seem to have anything to do with the snow. I still appreciate the help sofar!

The Bluejay Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Might be a shot in the dark, but maybe you could look at some of the mods which rexture the snow to look better? Logically, the files they change are the ones you need to change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexVestin Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) True. I'll look through the ones I can find. /EDIT: No luck finding any others like it. Seems hard to find the source of this texture. Edited November 27, 2011 by AlexVestin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
