📋 About This Mod
Discovery1's flora texture replacers from the series 'The Imperial Environment', 2 , 3, 4, and 5, in a single WizBAIN (1200+ files, 2. 5GB data, 0. 38GB compressed).
Each of these texture replacers is also available as an individual WizBAIN package. For a brief overview, please follow the links:
The Imperial Ecology v2 The Imperial Ecology v3 - Verdant Anthesis The Imperial Ecology v4 - Fantasmagoria The Imperial Ecology v5 - Vanilla Flavour
---------------------
The installation wizard lets the user select one Imperial Ecology version as a basis, and then choose any optional package of every one of the four included Imperial Ecologies. I expect most users to choose the terrific shrubs and trees in 'Verdant Anthesis' regardless which Ecology they elect as basis.
---------------------
13 October 2015 There is a patch available. Pherim has made a set of normal maps for the landscape ivy. Discovery1 kindly allowed for them to appear as part of this BAIN. Thanks to both of them! -- -- --> Note that you don't need the patch if you don't want Pherim's normal maps. There's a comparison AniGIF in the Nexus Image Share, here.
Installation of Pherim's patch: =============
1) Apply patch:
- []Extract the original archive into a folder on its own (you need ~3GB disk space). []Extract the contents of the patch archive into that folder. Say 'Yes' to overwrite when asked -- if you are not being asked, something went wrong. []Inside the folder, double-click on 'makeBAIN.bat'. In the pop-up window, choose the folder where your Wrye Bash resides, e.g. D:\Oblivion\Mopy.
Copying ======= TesaPlus is author of the Wizard.txt. Do with it what you want. Icons in the wizard come from Metallicow's BAIN demo. Share and credit. Everything in this archive related to the game belongs to Discovery1.
Thank you ========= Discovery1 Wrye for BAIN Lojack for BAIN wizard Metallicow for BAIN wizard demo Notepad++ and 'utumno aka Udun' for the 'BAIN wizard Script Highlighter for Notepad++' Irfan Skiljan for IrfanView Pherim for the landscape ivy normal maps

() Footnote for the adventurous: You have got yourself all four single archives already? Throw their contents into one and the same folder, apply the patch from this page (see 'Installation'), and you are all set. No need to download the whole thing again.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- All-in-one pack saves you from juggling multiple downloads
- Installation wizard makes setup a breeze
- Community-tested with 110 endorsements and nearly 4k downloads
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — might not play nice with newer game patches
- Requires BAIN (Wrye Bash) — not for MO2 or Vortex users
For Oblivion players who want a flora overhaul without hunting down separate mods. If you're comfortable with Wrye Bash and like modular installs, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're on a modern mod manager or want detailed previews of each texture set.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Wrye Bash installed and set up — BAIN archives won't work with other managers.
- When the wizard asks for a base ecology, pick the one that matches your game's region (e.g., Cyrodiil) for the most natural look.
- If you're unsure about optional packages, start with just the base and add more later — you can re-run the wizard anytime.
