Ok .

Both yes and no.

This mod is fairly minor as it was first just a way to make the regular state troops look better and more gritty like WH1. But Warhammer 1 Texture Update Project is a much bigger project and in most cases does supersed this mod when it comes to all the other units.

But my mod also upscales the textures to double the resolution size for a bit more crisper look for units that had really low resolution textures in the base game or in WH1.

For instance, the normal state troop unit texture are upscaled to a resolution of 2048x1024 while vanilla and the project mod still have them at 1024x512 resolution.

I have also done this for all the RoR units. This mod is also compatible with my details matter mod that adds more hair color variety to units.

So is your mod superseded by Warhammer 1 Texture Update Project?

Yes, you are right on the left is WH3 and on the right is WH2. Well, I’ll hope and wait) As soon as Immortal Empires came out, it haunted me for a very long time because Malus is my favorite lord)

I am guessing that the one on the left is from WH3 and the one on the right is from WH2?

If so, it looks like it is a missing effect overlay, as it seems to be missing the glow effects. This might be fixable as some of those type of shaders still work. I may look into it on my visual bug fix mod when the next major patch comes out.

It's hard to say, I took a screenshot for comparison. It's not clear that it's a matter of textures or shaders. Maybe you will understand better, you have more knowledge in this area than me https://imgur.com/CdprLjq

@Attila It depends, if it is an effect type texture overlay it may not work because CA broke many of the shaders when they made WH3. If it is just different textures being used, it should be possible to port the textures from WH2 over to WH3.

Hello, I really liked your mod and would like to know. Is it even possible to do the same with Malus Darkblade? Namely with his second form Tz'arkan. In WH2, after his transformation, all his armor was painted in the colors of Slaanesh. in TW3 CA they simply removed this and now the demon does not look as cool as in TW2 (

@Handsome Jack No, you need the details matters mod to get the beard variation.
I decided to do it this way so this would be more compatible with other mods.
Handsome Jack 18 Aug, 2023 @ 12:53pm 
hey, are the beard variations included in this mod ?

this mod really cool, looks immersive

Check out his modding assets too - you can't miss them ;)

BTW while Hooveric is still relatively popular, my personal favorite from an Empire player perspective would be a comp patch for True Grit and the ZC Empire reskin.... Did you ever try that? Or do you feel the need for more "grit" isn't there so much if ZC is used? Give it a shot and have fun <3
sigmars_disciple 12 May, 2023 @ 3:04pm 
Thank you, I appreciate it. I'm mostly relieved that my question actually made sense.... Doesn't happen often for me :)
Merwanor  [author] 11 May, 2023 @ 10:45pm 
@soulmindproductions Yeah sorry, True Grit textures is not included in the collection. I have added a note for it on the collection page now and in the description for this mod.

And yes, this is bascially a reskin mod as any other, so as of right now it is not compatible with other reskins like Hooveric. I want to make a compatability patch for Hooveric at some point when I get the time.

That being said, anyone is free to use my assets to make their own mods or compatability mods if they want to.

Hey Merwanor, I promise I read all of the descriptions thoroughly, but am still not sure if the "True Grit Textures" for the Empire are included in the "Details Matter: Collection" or not. For example when you list in detail what the Collection does on its mod page - with bullet points for each change - there's nothing about a texture change for the Empire..

Of course it's not a big issue if running e.g. the Collection and True Grit at the same time brings the same result anyway and doesn't cause problems :) Do I get this right that it'll be generally incompatible with other reskins, such as Hooveric or ZC? Sorry in case I sound like a tool.
Merwanor  [author] 22 Apr, 2023 @ 5:09pm 
@Thibault Yeah I will eventually do more of these when I get the time, and there is still a lot of issues with certertain textures for The Empire, this is just some of the units.

I have been working a bit on a Greenskin mod too, with focus on the Black Orcs as they just look terrible imo.
HP LaserJet M110 Colour 22 Apr, 2023 @ 4:32pm 
This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much for this mod
Do you think you will ever do the same for other races? I agree the Empire was the worst one but others like Bretonnia and DE could do with some love imo

Cool, good luck.
Merwanor  [author] 14 Apr, 2023 @ 3:17pm 
This texture mod is meant to just enhance the textures already in the game, mostly just returning them to the style from WH1 or WH2.

If I ever add other details outside of just enhancing textures, such as additions of heraldry, then that will be added to the Details Matter mods and not this one.
Esoteric knowledge enjoyer 14 Apr, 2023 @ 7:25am 
This is actually pretty dope. Have you considered adding shield heraldry also? Or do you plan to keep the overall aesthetic as close to the base game as possible?
