📋 About This Mod
improvement of vanilla eye textures (256-512px) to higher quality (1k) - NOT a simple upscale -while keeping their distinct characteristics; added more eye colors to roster (useful for modders) without replacing anything
I found a good source of original 2k eye diffuse in game files, and used it to re-create all the vanilla eye color textures in a better quality.
I used a bit of upscaling, hand-painting & dark rituals to get a better resolution, while keeping the charm and colorfullness of an original texture.
