Texture patcher - Fix transparent visors/black feet etc

[nilbog]

Ever notice half elf visors are sealed shut? Eye of Zomm is black?

These issues and many more can be fixed.

Months ago, kanras and I fixed all known texture issues. We have both been busy with RL work, and not much has been completed since. I am releasing the executable and relevant patcher so you can enjoy what has been corrected to date. Original credit goes to Ropethunder for creating the transpfx.exe file.

Examples of fixed textures:

Known problem:

• The female human plate helm shares the same texture as the male human plate helm but does not use transparency. As a result of enabling transparency for the male plate visor a small porthole has appeared in the back of the female plate helm.

Does not appear to be compatible. Had the texture upgrade installed and as soon as I installed this I was crashing instantly at character selected. Loaded in my backups and reinstalled the patch and it worked.

Can't have both I guess until maybe Nilbog finds a work-around [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I initially used the patcher without giving it the right permissions. I then gave it administrative permission and tried to run it again. When it starts it closes immediately without doing anything. I even reinstalled everything to try it again and it won't work. I have the higher_res pack of zones, could that be an issue?

Open a command prompt and run it from there.
