[MOD]Pimp my Skunk: textures overhaul

ICO_hr · Post by **ICO_hr** » Fri, 29. Nov 13, 13:39

DESCRIPTION
Pimp_My_Skunk(PMS) for The Skunk contain new Diffuse and Specular maps created from scratch for better visuals and immersion.Almost all textures are vanilla size which ensures you wont suffer from Vram inefficiency or any other side effects except maybe a little longer pop-in when entering the cockpit.

DIFFERENT MOD VERSIONS
VANILLA - Dirty and scratchy(more or less) for everyone who wants something similar to vanilla Skunk
SHINY - ....well, its shiny and clean
MILITARY - ....ummmm just go and check the screenshots...

PMS_OC
PMS_OC will increase your frame rate between 5-10fps by removing unnecessary parts from the cockpit that are not visible in-game or are not visible most of the time.Dont worry this doesn't make holes in the ship.This is separate addition to original PMS texture mod and should be installed like every mod in "Steam/steamapps/common/X Rebirth/extensions" .
PMS OC - also removes Scan modes and Glass Reflection visulas.
PMS OC_ScanModes_GlassRefl - doesnt remove Scan modes and Glass Reflection visulas.

Update_1:
Fixed messed up name entries in some materials thanks to Spartanheyho.It wasn't something important that brakes the game but just for any case.
Update_2:
You dont need to edit save files anymore if you remove the mod + minor fixes(Include Update_1)
Update_3:
Added PMS_OC separate mod as main file download.

Almost looking too slick and clean for my taste

Still... nice work even though it won't be for me.

Yeah I think the skunk is supposed to look dirty, given that the MC basically found it drifting in space.

But I would really like that dirt to be in HD xD

I would also like to have more dirty ships and stations in general - like, a mining ship shouldn't look like a hi-tech freighter...

Interested in your stylish overhauls.. ;D

Excellent work - congratulations

This MOD is functional in 1.17?

Thanks

So far i only extracted some generic maps from the normal map so i can rebuild the difuse maps and currently difuse and specular maps are only color and fake AO.I still have some work before adding the wear and tear.

I will try to do them as good quality as posibble without changing vanilla sizes.If it doesnt work everything will be scaled to 2k and 4k.I cant stand blurry textures.

Awesome stuff, as I cannot stand blurry textures either. Keep up the awesome work on this mod!

W.I.P.

When i finish with the lore friendly textures i will try something, lets say more stylish.

Impressive work, Egosoft should be paying you!

From what I can tell it looks quite nice. I look forward to the release of this mod at your earliest convenience (i.e. when it's ready).

I was truly disappointed when i first saw the skunk in dock. I know its old and rusty, (by the way, how does something rust in space?, there's no atmosphere for oxidization!) but as its the only player ship i was expecting more. Or even as a reward at some point to give it an overhaul.
And it looks atrocious in dock in De Vreis.
Can't wait for a good looking ship.

i love shiny, the whole game needs more spec, bump and reflection, the game as it stands is very 2002
