Like with the other upscaled texture packs I've uploaded recently, the procedure involves using ESRGAN to remove BC1 compression artifacts from all the textures, then using it again to upscale the diffuse maps and some normal maps if they really need to be bigger. I might upscale some of these later just for completion's sake though. Not necessarily because they're already high res or already free of BC1 compression (they aren't) but just because the detail/quality is very high and the UV maps don't stretch the textures to the point their 1-2K resolution becomes apparent. The armor sets I didn't include are mostly sets that don't need further improvement in my opinion. I might upscale some of the other variants eventually. I would personally recommend just reinstalling aMidianborn with the options I listed above though.

So for example if you picked white wolf armor and install this, you'll end up with upscaled brown wolf armor. If you originally installed different color variants of the aMidianborn textures you can safely just overwrite them with this, except for the iron armor and hide armor since the patterns don't line up. Steel Armor (default version but you can pick whichever variant you want when installing book of silence) Orcish Armor (default version, not brighter) Scaled Armor (default version, not brighter) Includes upscaled diffuse maps and/or 'decompressed' normal maps, plus other more specific improvements for: So this will improve the visual quality of vanilla armors as well as many NordwarUA armor elements. I included some of those in the NordwarUA pack, but even for them you'll want the matching armors in the base game to match the NordwarUA versions in visual fidelity, (like for the bandit/hide armor) and others just use the vanilla texture paths so weren't included in the NordwarUA pack. If you use my recent upscaled NordwarUA textures you'll definitely want these ones too, since many of the NordwarUA meshes use aMidianborn textures. I've been sitting on this for a while, just needed to get permission first. For those who've been waiting, sorry I'm just uploading this now.
