📋 About This Mod

Ancient Machines, Modern Detail

The Dwemer automatons are marvels of lost engineering — tireless guardians that have patrolled empty halls for millennia. They deserve textures that capture their intricate brass and bronze construction.

Back in 2019, I released my first take on these mechanical sentinels. It was good, but never quite matched what I had envisioned. This remastered version finally delivers — rebuilt from the ground up with advanced techniques and meticulous attention to detail.

— FEATURES —

  • []Two Resolution Options: 4K for maximum detail, 2K for performance builds

    []Custom Neural Network: Upscaled using my own ESRGAN model trained specifically for textures and normals

    []Enhanced Specular Maps: Detailed with grunge passes for realistic wear

    []Improved Normals: Much sharper surface detail than the original

  • Built-in AO & Curvature: Generated in Substance Designer to enhance every gear and rivet

    — COMPATIBILITY —

    Works with everything except other mods that retexture Dwemer automatons. If it doesn't touch the machines, you're good to go.

    The Dwemer's greatest creations, now with the detail they deserve.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install — it's a simple texture replacer.
  • Choose the 2K version if you're on a mid-range GPU to avoid performance hits in Dwemer ruins.
  • Load order doesn't matter much for texture mods, but place it after any mods that alter Dwemer automatons to ensure it overwrites correctly.
