About This File
This fixes the mismatching specularity maps on Argonians when using Schlongs of Skyrim.
In a nutshell, this fix will cause Schlongs of Skyrim's included schlong addons to be just as shiny as their owners when using vanilla Skyrim/Schlongs of Skyrim textures.
Here is what is done:
- Changed \textures\actors\characters\SOS\VectorPlexus Regular\malegenitals_argonian_1_s.dds to match the vanilla specular map
- Created \textures\actors\characters\SOS\Smurf Average\malegenitals_argonian_1_s.dds (_kinda_ matching the vanilla specular map)
- Changed a texture set reference in 'SOS - Smurf Average Addon.esp' using TES5Edit to use the new, dedicated specular map for Argonians
Fair warning:
The edit to the .esp has been done using Schlongs of Skyrim 2.05.041 - so using it on any other version _might_ horribly break things.
Requirements
- Schlongs of Skyrim (2.05.041 to be sure), including all dependencies
- VectorPlexus Regular Schlong Addon installed
- Smurf Average Schlong Addon installed
Installation
This is mostly a simple replacer. For manuall installs, extract the archive to Skyrim\Data, letting it overwrite existing files - make backups.
When using NMM:
- Install after Schlongs of Skyrim (and any texture replacers). Allow to overwrite.
When using MO:
- Install and place it after Schlongs of Skyrim. The included .esp is supposed to override SOS's own.
Compatibility
This only replaces one file from SOS (textures\actors\character\SOS\VectorPlexus Average\malegenitals_argonian_1_s.dds), as well as override the 'SOS - Smurf Average Addon.esp' so it should be compatbile with virtually anything that does not touch these files.
The fix will look odd and weird, making the schlongs way too shiny, when using texture replaces like F.A.R. as these come with tweaked body specular maps. As long as your Argonian textures use the vanilla specular maps or provide higher resolution versions of these, but in general match the vanilla ones, you should be okay.
It might also just horribly break things anyway.
