The only universal exception to the above is that I suggest you delete/hide/overwrite aMidianborn's orcshield_m.dds.
#Amidianborn skyrim textures install#
Then if you install some other replacer that you like better than aMidianborn, for a particular armor set, then have that overwrite both aMidianborn and my upscaled texture pack.
#Amidianborn skyrim textures mods#
Just overwrite aMidianborn and any other mods with my textures. So I would encourage you to use the aMidianborn textures, at least for all the armor sets included in this texture pack. Including them would just be a waste of space and upscaling them would just be a massive waste of VRAM. aMidianborn also significantly changes some of the armor sets' metallic maps and I didn't include any metallic maps since they don't need to be super clean or high-res. So in some cases, like the steel armor, this only includes the normal maps and they won't exactly line up with the vanilla diffuse maps for steel armor.
But this only includes the textures that I felt actually needed work. Technically speaking you don't need it, and not having it won't be the end of the world or anything. This sort of requires aMidianborn Book of Silence - ARMORS, which is hosted on the oldrim Nexus. I upscaled the alpha channels separately and in some cases made new alpha masks for the fur. When there's something bugging me about the texture itself then I'll use photoshop to redo that part or clean it up or whatever is needed in that specific case. Then I merge the tiles manually and save the diffuse maps in BC7 fine, and save the normal maps either without compression or in BC7 depending on the nature of the texture. Like with the other upscaled texture packs I've uploaded recently, the procedure involves using ESRGAN to remove BC1 compression artifacts from all the textures, then using it again to upscale the diffuse maps and some normal maps if they really need to be bigger. I might upscale some of these later just for completion's sake though. Not necessarily because they're already high res or already free of BC1 compression (they aren't) but just because the detail/quality is very high and the UV maps don't stretch the textures to the point their 1-2K resolution becomes apparent. The armor sets I didn't include are mostly sets that don't need further improvement in my opinion.
I might upscale some of the other variants eventually. I would personally recommend just reinstalling aMidianborn with the options I listed above though. So for example if you picked white wolf armor and install this, you'll end up with upscaled brown wolf armor. If you originally installed different color variants of the aMidianborn textures you can safely just overwrite them with this, except for the iron armor and hide armor since the patterns don't line up. Steel Armor (default version but you can pick whichever variant you want when installing book of silence) Orcish Armor (default version, not brighter) Scaled Armor (default version, not brighter)

Includes upscaled diffuse maps and/or 'decompressed' normal maps, plus other more specific improvements for: So this will improve the visual quality of vanilla armors as well as many NordwarUA armor elements. I included some of those in the NordwarUA pack, but even for them you'll want the matching armors in the base game to match the NordwarUA versions in visual fidelity, (like for the bandit/hide armor) and others just use the vanilla texture paths so weren't included in the NordwarUA pack. If you use my recent upscaled NordwarUA textures you'll definitely want these ones too, since many of the NordwarUA meshes use aMidianborn textures. I've been sitting on this for a while, just needed to get permission first. For those who've been waiting, sorry I'm just uploading this now.
