etexture 4k - 2k

23/06/2020 - Enjoy :)

Description

The long awaited sequel to the ruined book..... I mean not really but I couldn't think of another intro.

I will burn you... I will burn the heart out of you!

4k as usual. 2k cause i'm nice. 1k cause I too enjoy potatoes!

So, look Bethesda did create a mesh for the burned book, but we're not using it here. Trust me it's trash.

Here we use the ruined book mesh as it's much nicer and allows for custom paper textures, which I just discovered

to my delight! Don't stress though, this won't overwrite the ruined book. I'm smart like that.

Same story really. Threw the mush in the bin. Crafted some details from scratch and resolved them in 4k. Hope you like :)

The versions available are as follows:

- 4k Burned Book

- 2k Burned Book

- 1k Burned Potato

Installation:

Not actually sure why this is a section...... Download and install through MO or NMM or place in Data folder.

My Socials:

Back in 2012 I threw myself into the immersive mystical world that is Skyrim. yet as I played one thing began to irk me. The textures!

To put it plainly they suck. I tried to ignore it but over time it got to me so much that I literally forced myself to learn the art of creating textures just so I could fully immersive myself in glorious and copious amounts of detail.

Eventually I realised maybe other people would enjoy my creations. And so here I am sharing my many hours of trials and errors with this amazing community and if even one other person can enjoy them as I have I count that as a success!

Thank you to this amazing community of mod creators and users I am humbled to be counted as one of you. :)

Why I'm on Patreon:

As some of you may know or have guessed, modding takes many hours, many more cups of tea and yet more cups of coffee. I do it because I love it and because I get excited when I share my creations and others love it too.

That being said, if you enjoy my work and would like to support what I do by shouting me a coffee or a tea, that would make me extremely happy indeed.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager — no load order worries.
  • If you're on a lower-end PC, choose the 2k or 1k version to avoid performance hits.
  • Check if other mods also modify the burned book texture — if so, load this one last to ensure it takes effect.
