📋 About This Mod
Name: Mythic Creatures Version: 1. 0 Date: 1/26/2010 Category: Models and Textures Author(s): Themythofstrider / Themythofanst Source Details ======= I was walking around my heavily modded oblivion game and I was wondering why the creature textures never matched up to the awesome landscape upgrades (qarl\'s, UL, ect). So I decided to try my hand at it.. This mod retextures the following baddies: Clannfear Daedroth Spriggan Scamp Imp Fire Atronach Frost Atronach Storm Atronach Spider Daedra Xivilai Lich Zombies Minotaur Minotaur Lord Land Dreugh Troll Ogre For more high-res goodness check out my Mythic Animal Pack here: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29638 Install ======= 1. Extract the files to a temporary location. 2. Examine the folder structure and make corrections where necessary. 3. Copy files to (install folder)\\Oblivion\\Data\\ Uninstall ========= 1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, uncheck the .esp file(s) 2. Delete the files/folders associated with the mod. Requirements =============== Must have archive invalidation enabled (either through oblivion mod manager, or archive invalidation invalidated). Incompatibility =============== Any mods that alter the creature textures Known Issues or Bugs ==================== This mod may reduce frame rates on lower end systems as it uses larger texture files than vanilla oblivion. I have a mid range system and I noticed no difference in performance.
