📋 About This Mod
Enlightened Flames OpenMW Patcher
About
This is a small script which reads your OpenMW load order and replaces all of the necessary flame particles with R-Zeros billboard mod. Since OpenMW lacks LUA these meshes must be generated before you launch the game.
Due to limitations the flames "always look up" behavior present in the MWSE version will not work with this patch.
And please, I would love to support OSX but I don't have one so it's impossible to build binaries for it :)
Usage
-
[]Run the executable billboard_replacer(.exe) from within the mod folder
[
]An overwrite folder will be generated, simply add this overwrite folder to your data files path. It is critical to load this last (at the very bottom) of your openmw.cfg for the patch to work.Note: the original mod is not needed, having it installed won't hurt anything though
