What is the Dunmers building material?

[GreyFox]

What are the buildings of the Dunmer made of? Is it Sandstone or Adobe? I never liked the dirty look of it, so I made some quick re texturing today when getting rid off the glowing rocks from MGSO(thanks to https://bugs.openmw.org/issues/3264). I created some normal maps for them, is it time-consuming to make them appear in the game? (simply adding a "_nm" did not do the trick, I guess I have to map them somewhere?)

Not time consuming at all, you just didn't name the normal map correctly. It's simply _n.dds.

Also, you need to activate shaders before they'll work. Have a look here:

https://wiki.openmw.org/index.php?title=TextureModding

Basically you need this in your settings file:

Code: Select all

[Shaders]
auto use object normal maps = true

auto use object specular maps = true

normal map pattern = _n
normal height map pattern = _nh

specular map pattern = _spec

You could of course change the suffix in the settings to _nm, but I would recommend to use _n since scrawl has more or less made that the standard now.

Cool. Thanks.
