Blackrose Meshes

[Deeza]

It's really not a big deal. Whenever you and Ibsen are done with the city pieces, to your satisfaction, really.

@ Deeza - It's worth mentioning that if you're going for a 'complete' look for the fort pieces then the assortment you selected may not be the best choices. I'd certainly use the ruined tower that I modelled but you'll definitely need things like columns and maybe arches. You may also like to have the top level of the fort set. I can sort through them and maybe pick out the most intact models, if you wish...?

Edit - I have added various other pieces. As you can see here, there is a complete walkway using Meo's models. I also added what I thought might prove to be a suitable outside window. The roof is also Meo's and the other bits and pieces are from the vanilla set. Would you like the models to be completely unruined or would you prefer for me to keep one or two parts that give you a few options for towers and suchlike in disrepair?

Oh yes and I haven't checked if Meo's roof piece snaps-to-grid over the mid-level part of the castle. It should do but it may only fit the top level. Let me know if you're planning on using the top-level pieces of the fort or not anyway. This set is pretty much ready.

[Deeza]

These retextures look excellent. So is all this included in the archive you hosted?

I think that the ruined meshes would be best, together with some parts that have been "repaired". This is because according to the lore, this city was totally abandoned for more than 200 years before it was rebuilt as a prison by Tiber Septim. So we're talking a really dank, nasty city that's only lived in by people who either have nowhere else to go or help run the prison.

[Ibsen's Ghost]

Yes, it should all be there in the archive update. The pieces I chose were largely intact with a little variation in terms of broken columns and so on. Try supplementing with normal fort ruins for now as you experiment and then let me know if you need a particular model converting.

[Deeza]

Thanks. I'll let you know how I get on with it. So the co-ordinates are confirmed for the Blackrose location and I can make a start on it now? I'm going to wait for morcroft's meshes to be ready, but that means I should be able to start by the end of the week.

All the rework on the lunar temples is now done, with proper vertex shading on everything. These piccies are of the current exterior-only meshes, so these are what would generally go in-game. I've also added a shack-type door mesh. There are eight distinct buildings here, plus the ruin, the temple and the shack door.





I've updated the AztecWall7 texture to tile vertically as well as horizontally

Should have a pack you can use in a couple of days. After that, let me know if you need more "ruining" done. I still have to do interiors.

[Deeza]

Those look absolutely brilliant! Even better than what I originally had planned! This is going to look great! Please see my PM about the ruined versions (for dungeons/smaller ruins in the area).

[Koniption]

Wowzers! Morcroft, Deeza is right - those look really great!

These look great. And they remind me of Morrowind, for some reason.

[morcroft]

General shabbiness, probably! Oblivion's always been far too pretty compared to Morrowind.

Thanks for the nice comments all.
