📋 About This Mod
Tamriel Rebuilt HeightMaps
By Noiselarp7
Description
- This mod contains height maps for Tamriel Rebuilt Terrain. Threw these together because I found the transition between vanilla terrain with height and completely flat TR textures extremely jarring. Also because I quite like the effect and think it does a lot to help with OpenMW's current lack of grass support.
Installation/Requirements
- This mod of course requires Tamriel Rebuilt and OpenMW.
- For the effect to be visible ingame, the following settings should be present under the section of your OpenMW settings.cfg file:
auto use terrain normal maps = true
- If this setting is set, the effects should be visible in game once the mod is place into your data files directory.
Compatibility
- Necrom - Arkitektora of Morrowind by Tyddy is the only retexture effecting TR terrain that I'm aware of. These files were tested with this mod and no issues were found.
Notes
- I haven't had the time to extensively test all terrains. Let me know if any terrain heights are too intense/subtle and I'll try and fix it.
This mod adds normal height maps for Tamriel Rebuilt terrain, enhancing visual depth and detail in OpenMW. It requires OpenMW and is a must-have for players using the Tamriel Rebuilt project who want improved terrain visuals.
