📋 About This Mod

If I missed something, ie. you find black and white vehicles, please let me know and I will rectify my short comings as soon as possible.

Firstly, I released a authors pick collection of different texture sizes as loose files for the ones out there who want to make their own merged texture packs and/or can pack them themselves.

You can pack things in archives with BsArchPro or Cathedral Assets Optimizer. Or Archive2 if you have it already, if not, you can get from installing Creation Kit.

Secondly, I published packed, ba2 archives, versions with the same texture sizes. Examples below.

If you don't know what I talked about, and/or don't care, in the previous, firstly, section, these packed files are the way to go :) 

Six versions are offered, three texture sizes:

4k ba2 (archive)

4k loose files

(Stole this from Drevviken shamelessly, thanks!)

Bigger one has Diffuse 4k, Normals 2k, speculars 1k and Glow map 0,5k.

The smaller ones difference is 2k Diffuses.

When I get more done, hopefully fairly soonish, I will update this authors pick and upload packed aios for each resolution.

For winter themes, check out this awesomeness, by the boss man Neirsin!

For the time being, the winter textures are hidden and I have no idea if they're coming back.

So far done:

Also included here, leaving them as separate downloads in the original locations - Aircraft and Airplane

Also included here, leaving them as separate downloads in the original locations - Motorcycle

So now this mod contains the following:

APC, Automotive, Airplanes, Crane, ForkLift, Megaloader, MiniCar, Motorcycle, Monorail, Tractor, Train, UFO and playground stuff.

tba - Vertibirds will have to wait for real life things to settle, aka getting motivation ngl.

If you want reference pictures, here, have a look. Atm, I'm too lazy to take pictures of these vanilla textures...

Texture assets are from: 3dJungle.net, CGBookCase.com, FreePBR.com, Texturelabs.org, CGBookCase com, PolyHaven.com and withpoly.com.

Thanks for watching, keep listening to Lorna Shore!
