Thanks for viewing!

Very nice! This Concept Art Vivec looks very different from the screenshots on the mod page.

Have you tested out any of the Project Atlas stuff?

Hey 1Mac!

I've not yet seen the Atlas Project -- but I will for sure be trying them later today. Remiros and Melchior Dahrk do such great work.

Thanks for the tip.

The Atlas Project is great for OpenMW. I experimented with atlasing my Imperial Forts pack, but it didn't work out as well as I hoped. I have had a lot to do lately unfortunately, so I didn't have the time to test it more. But if I can solve it, you can be sure all my packs will be uploaded with atlased textures.

These pics are beautiful. I always like seeing these pics.

Looking forward to Lysol’s atlases textures!

Until then, in addition to the core project, there are a few things to look out for.

-There are smoothed atlases Redoran meshes on the Better Meshes page.
-Tyddy has updates of his Arkitektora series with texture atlases.
-And DaggerfallTeam has normal maps made from Tyddy’s new textures.

Thanks -- I'll definitely be taking more as I trek through the TR lands.

Project Atlas works without issue and you can (I do) use Lysol's textures with the atlased meshes. Just run the batch file on his textures to generate the atlased one. Do not try to run the bat file on the normal maps, however, as they have some issues.

1.) Why would the bat files treat normals any differently from other image files? You’d just have to remove the _n suffix first, right?

2.) Lysol is having a problem making texture atlases from his new fort textures. Given your description, could the solution just be to generate atlases from the color maps, then generate new normals from those atlases?

I imagine the issue is that there aren't simply normals in there, it's the mix of normals maps and normal+height maps that messed things up. I tried just using the normal maps, then splicing the textures and normals from Arkitektora to fill the rest. Obviously did not match well, but there weren't any weird issues with the normals.
