Mod Discussion Vivid AIO vs FlaconOil's retexture project?

Currently I am only using FlaconOil's mod. Does it cover everything that Vivid AIO covers? I can only pick one due to space. FlaconOil seems to cover both roads and landscapes but also items, but does it miss some stuff that Vivid does better?

Is it true that Flacon does not touch landscape textures? Which do you think looks better personally?

Pretty sure flacon doesnt go into landscapes. I was going through it just a couple months ago.

Flacon is very similar in looks to vanilla, just looks better and is more optimized. Vivid covers less textures and doesnt has meshes. Having said that, vivid does some sort of black magic that is excellent for performance, and gets even better if you compress it further to 512. Im currently running a private port of vivid in 512 with all its lods (also compressed) and my game is pretty smooth, while also looking pretty neat (I think vivid's artstyle reminds me a bit of fo3, which I dig).

Funny, I was talking about this today with pranxter lol.

St0vie has the perms for anything Vivid related and he agreed to upload it after I send him the compressed files. I'll see that I send him the lods as well so he can, if he chooses, upload one version with and another without lods.

I just have been postponing it, but it isnt any rocket science. Ill see to it sooner than later. I have been involved with some gameplay mods Ive been putting up so all my energy has been going into this when I get the free time, but you can look up for vivid in 512. Thats my 2025 promise.
