📋 About This Mod

Overview

Ultra vanilla friendly Windcaller Tomb and Horn retexture, with a detailed and weathered surface.

Saved using BC7 compression for maximum quality.

Available in 16K, 8K, 4K, and 2K.

The 16K texture was crashing my game (lol)

so I ended up making it a hybrid.

The diffuse is 16,384 x 16,384 BC1 compression.

The normal map is 8192 x 8192 BC7 compression.

Every other size is BC7 compression.
