Better Cities vs Qarl's Texture Pack?

[GunnerofLife]

I want to try both of these mods at the same time, but we all know that's not happening. I don't want to deal with a bunch of compatibility issues on my new playthrough. So which one should I use? I never used either of them before.

 

-I like how Better Cities is setup, as it makes all the cities look so BOSS!

-I also like Qarl's TP because it adds so much detail to almost EVERYTHING in the game.

I fail to see the conflict between a global texture replacer and a mod which redesigns cities built from Vanilla meshes using whatever textures they will have.

 

If Better Cities contains some texture replacements of its own which might conflict with Quarl's, then installing Quarl's first and BC second will just affect those select textures and none else. Installing Quarl's after BC should make it so BC's replacements, if any, are again replaced by Quarl's and everything will be Quarl's textures. Shouldn't cause any issues with the cities themselves.

 

Or does Quarl's go beyond texture replacements and this is where the conflict lies? I'm not seeing any right now, but I only know BC myself so far.

I don't know for a fact if it'll conflict with each other or not, I'm just not willing to risk it. But I'll take your word for it and try. Tbh, I really want to play both at the same time.

 

And no, Qarl only deals in textures like dungeons, terrain, etc.
