📋 About This Mod
a set of normalmaps based on flash's intelligent textures. textures were handpainted before being used to generate normalmaps, then resized and compressed to minimize disk and VRAM usage.
this mod is compatible with vanilla textures, but the Intelligent Textures mod is recommended.
this mod is technically compatible with vanilla morrowind, but doesn't currently include any meshes, and without them it has no effect in vanilla. the mod is plug and play for OpenMW.
this release includes the full set from the official add-on and the helm of tohan from its official add-on, but let me know if i missed anything.
make sure you have normalmaps enabled in settings.cfg
auto use object normal maps = true
auto use terrain normal maps = true
recommended to use with Subtle Magic Glow https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/4468
if you enjoy the mod please leave screenshots, as i would rather work on more mods than take screenshots of my own.
please report any issues in the bug tracker. if this release goes well, and windows stops being a brokedick PoS i will probably release her hand's armor next.
This mod adds normalmaps for the adamantium armor from the official add-on and the Helm of Tohan artifact, enhancing visual depth in OpenMW. A niche cosmetic improvement for Morrowind players using OpenMW, with modest community support (27 endorsements).
