Pretty Pack - First Alpha Release!

Recommended Posts

Well it looks like we were sold snake oil. Some of the textures from the HD2K pack don't look very perceptibly different from far away, so I think a lot of people WANTED to think they looked better. It's kind of like when an audiophile pays $200 for a pair of headphones that may not objectively be better than what they upgraded from, yet they swear they can hear a difference.

 

Needless to say I'm going to look at things a bit closer before including them now. And I'll pass it on to you guys to look at too. One pack I was considering inviting to the project is Z4G4's landscape pack. You can find it here: http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2146 Any thoughts about the quality of the work? (Unlike the last pack, I opened this one in photoshop. It seems muuuuuch better :D)

 

Yes I think you might be right about those landscape textures. I think I may have got that one mixed up with dirkduggler's mod which I suggested earlier, theres so many texture replacers its hard to keep track of them all.. I 'll take a look through the textures I haven't got much on at present and give you my feedback. I'll PM you it if thats alright. I feel a little guilty about my comments on the Windhelm stuff, I just get wound up when people pass off lazy work as high quality when it isn't and I tend to be very vocal in my feedback.

 

I know people don't like being told what to do, me especially :laugh: but if you could presuade some good texture artists to work on the cities that haven't been done, I think that would go a long way towards improving the visual aspect of the game. I'm happy to work on clothing and maybe some clutter later, neckros is helping me out but I don't really texture weapons or armour so thats something else you may want to consider. Just getting down my thoughts though, you're the team leader here. :)

@mystikhybrid: No problem man, I'll fix it up for the public release whenever we get to it!

 

@darthsloth74: Yeah, feel free to shoot a PM if you're shy about the commentary. Right now I'm not trying to force anyone into specific roles if it's not their specialty. Everything is already moving on at a very fast pace, and I don't see a need to rush what may come naturally; I'll keep in correspondence with the appropriate artists to make sure it gets taken care of.

I am really glad to see this project continue, I was watching the other topic as well, and for a while I thought it had died... I can't really help since I'm not an artist, but I just wanted to voice my support of the concept! Hope to see a Nexus release of it soon :)
