Pings Ultima Textures


Don't forget to Like & Favorite. Then it is faster findable for others.


Installation

It is the same installation method as with all other texture mods.
Add the folders to the game directory [media_soviet] & overwrite the files.
The game directory can be opened via Steam.
Right click on the game in the left bar, then on Manage & Browse Local Files.

Make a backup copy of each folder will be modified beforehand.
I forgot myself & therefore could not insert one.

The path to the mod folder is:

Steam / steammapps / workshop / content / 784150 / 3015040245


Info
This is pretty much a complete texture overhaul of everything surrounding except water & sky.


The ground textures are completely new created & also the textures for mountains/coasts & all plants for central european maps.
A desert bush that is normally blocked on the European maps was also changed In light green scrub.

The old beech is now an oak & the old arcacia is now a linden tree.

The old standard green bush is now a hazel bush based on the real thing.
Hazel & Linden look very similar. You can also interpret the linden trees as hazel trees.

The old/new bush under the new plant tabs with conifers are now brambles(the big bush icon) & the small bush icon is now a monk's pepper bush &or a dog rose bush. (the bushes change randomly as you place them[monk'sP/dog rose]).



The old Vanilla conifers have also received completely new textures.
Pines & Spruces are now more different & have specific branches.

The thuja the small vanilla fir tree is now a real fir tree.


Plant sizes offer a more realistic variety that gives a more natural look.


Autumn & winter textures have also been adjusted. Matching the real plant. So blackberry bushes bear fruit in summer/autumn (only very close to see) & in winter are just light snow covered brush with a few frozen lightly snowed leaves. & more.

Trees don't bear fruit because you wouldn't really see them anyway like a small acorn.

+ other small changes:
like new lantern colors, again reworked street textures, deco textures & more.


NOTE
old hedges from the small bushes might now stick out over the road due to the changed sizes.


The oak texture is unfortunately a bit coarse as the leaves are very small in the file & are displayed much larger in the game.
1 leaf is partly only 3-5 pixels wide in the image processing. Which does not allow too many details. But you can see the rough leaf structure of an oak leaf if you are close to it.

By the way, it can rarely happen that the game crashes after installing the mod at the first start.
This is if it happens at all, once, because the game engine has taken over the new data afterwards.

To prevent this, you can start the game after mod installation, then in the options window on Save & Exit, so that it captures the new data.

Then start normally. Most will not have this problem anyway but I say it extra before it is considered a bug.


Tip
Use for green bush brushes best the blackberry bush & the hazel bush.

By the way, this mod has nothing to do with the old Ultima game.

I don't know that by heart. The bushes have different names, e.g. the standard bush is called Kirak, but there are 3 or 4 different things with the name Kirak in them ^^ I have to look it up myself every time.

Hello. Please how to make it work only colored flowers? What is the name of the main folder or file name? I know where to copy everything but I'm mixing your mod with other texture mods. I just need to know how to make the flower colorful. Thx :)

Since we are still far from introducing desert and Asian jungle climate zones, the question is: can the slots occupied by palm trees and other evergreen things be repurposed for a variety of Eastern European greenery? Now we have 2 types of deciduous trees, several types of conifers and about 3-5 types of bushes. Palm trees and those Asian plants would be a noticeable addition to the diversity of landscaping.

well then you could quickly change it yourself ^^. I'll have to take another look at some of the trees soon. This is the first time I've made textures :D so unfortunately it's not perfect. I have to adjust the oaks & pines again, maybe also the winter lime trees. I have to change the whole tree structure somehow if I can manage it.

but thank you, I'm glad you like it :pact:

@Pingu's Revenge: it was the road_gravel.dds file, somehow i must have put the games original file there since your variations all have the cobblestone curb.
And of course I wanna say thank you for this absolutely georgeous texture set which gives the game a completely different look. Just awesome stuff!

@Fry3k Unfortunately, I don't know that by heart. I would have to go through the files again myself. It's not bad if it doesn't bother you. The added gravel road should not normally affect the surface of normal roads. If you use it to replace the basalt cobblestone roads. As the gravel road & normal roads use different building ground textures.

@Pingu's Revenge: Thanks for your answer. Removing the road piece an rebuildig it works fine!

Regarding your hint about the textures: I played around with your different files since you have some extra textures in an extra folder which I like to use, so i mixed them. Maybe I did something wrong there. I'm not quite sure which *.dds file is exactly for which road type. Maybe you can tell me which file I should use from your download folders to have the curbs agein.
