📋 About This Mod

This is a high resolution texture replacer for the Aylied ruins. This doesn\'t include any of the textures from Paradise, and I don\'t plan to replace any of them in the future. I\'ve also left alone the statue textures and the particle textures. Most of these new textures are 2048*2048 (as are the normal maps). While there are already some great replacers out there to use, none of them were quite what I was looking for. I can\'t say I\'m completely satisfied with every texture, but most of them I\'m happy with so I\'ve decided to release what I\'ve done. For use with this mod I recommend \"Glowing Respawning Varla and Welkynd Stones\" by Khettienna and The Vyper: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/43299 Also visible in the screenshots is \"Lush and Gaudy Floriana Gloria\" by Brittainy: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/41118 I also recommend checking it out, but that\'s more of a general suggestion.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the textures folder into your Data directory and overwrite when prompted.
  • Use Oblivion Mod Manager or Wrye Bash to manage installation and avoid conflicts with other texture mods.
  • If you're using a mod that also touches Ayleid ruins, load this one last to ensure the mossy look sticks.
