Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Whiterun HQ Texture Pack Mod v1.01 (1024)

This is a high-quality texturing mod for the city of Whiterun. Blurriness is avoided, some textures are actually redrawn 4 times the resolution of the original file. Changed 91 of the most encountered textures, but this is still a work in progress. More information on installation and about the mod in more information.

NOTE: This is the 1024x1024 version of this package for lower performance machines.

This is a high-quality texturing mod for the city of Whiterun. Blurriness is avoided, some textures are actually redrawn 4 times the resolution of the original file. Changed 91 of the most encountered textures, but this is still a work in progress. More information on installation and about the mod in more information.

This is a high-quality texturing mod (currently for Whiterun). As you can see in the comparison pictures, i try to keep the same feel to the textures while having actual quality instead of bluriness. Some are actually redrawn at 4 times the resolution of the original file.

Textures are 2048x2048 and 1024x2048.

Here's some articles about the mod:

=============

Installation:

=============

1) Extract files

2) Copy Textures folder to Skyrim/Data folder

3) Play

4) Most likely you'll need the "allow 4gb ram usage" patch to allow skyrim to use more RAM otherwise you'll encounter purple textures/crashes -> you can find it here : http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1013

===============

Uninstallation:

===============

1) Go to your Skyrim/Data folder

2) Delete the Textures folder (not the big file, just making sure !)

====================================
