📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
I couldn't find a retexture for the Ash Pile and Goo Puddle on the Nexus, so I decided to make one myself. I am still relatively new to creating and editing textures, so please be gentle. Both of these textures stood out too much between the high quality ground and environment textures from talented authors like luxor8071, FlaconOil, valius and others. So something had to be done.
Both Ash Pile and Goo Puddle diffuse and normal maps are made from scratch. The Goo Puddle normals were blended into the vanilla normal map (which was AI upscaled from 0,5K to 2K) because the "gooey" normals are rather hard to replicate. I think they blend very well and don't create a blurry mess.
INSTALLATION
Using NMM - overwrite if asked. Using MO - put it under other mods containing this texture (higher priority).
