[ACEofACE]

i dont know so much about computer so i could use a advise about the high resolutionp texture pack

my computer is a intel core i7 cpu 920 2.67 Ghz 12 gb ram and Nvidia geforze GTX 285 graphic card

i use windows 7 64 bit is it good / strong enough to use the pack?

if i "can" use the high res pack without the game being slow and huge loading time isent there something about some problems with it, that can be solved with a or some mods

sry for my english

I think your rig should handle it...you should take a look at some of the texture replacement Mods here as well, they're quite good. I use Serious HD, Vurt's Flora Overhaul, and a grass replacing Mod, the name of which escapes me.

How much vram does you card have? 1GB? 2GB?

 

High Res texture pack uses 1100-1300mb outside so if you use a card less than this requirement then you are going to find it will cause considerable stuttering and fps drops.

ok i try and look about that vram, if i install it can i then uinstall the high res. pack again?

[Rennn]

Yes, you can uninstall it, but if you go with 2K textures or other non-official packs it will be more difficult.

i havent any thought on using another thuge graphic mod just that official, but is there any fix mod for that high res pack that i shouldt use also, because i have heard something about some bugs in that high res mod?

There is a mod that helps with the stutter caused by the Hi Rez pack,

gives you the benefit of the textures but uses less VRAM. Has several

options for installation:

 

Bethesda Hi-Res DLC Optimized by Vano89

Yes there are some bugs. The above mod fixes those as well.

A quick search suggests you probably have 1 gb of VRAM on your graphic card. I have 1gb VRAM also and use the Hybrid (1024 - 2048) version of his mod.

The mod has an installer that works with Nexus Mod manager - you can switch between the different versions.

 

Hybrid (1024 - 2048) makes the least difference but is enough to fix the stutter for me.

 

Hybrid (1024 - 2048) + Vanilla Normal Maps uses even less VRAM but the textures won't be as detailed.

 

Full 1024 makes the biggest difference as it cuts the textures in half - but you get even less detail from the textures.

 

Hope that helps.
