NWNExplorer will not open Skyrim .DDS files

Is the 781.27 mb to large for most people to download?

 

I just wanted to keep all of Nebula's work together and give him credit for all of it.




Yes.  Using 2 or 3 hundred Megs chunks would be more manageable i think. You could perhaps gain a little more space using a different compress utility. 7Zip comes to mind. I don't see the problem giving credit to separated archives.

I'd separate the content into a few groups by content type (what the texture is used for) then zip them all in a way that they unzip to the same directory name. Or get an old zip splitter function out of the dust and split the large package into manageable chunks.

As someone with limited data bandwidth I think I'd prefer MD's first option.

The problem I have with larger zip files is that they often corrupt during download, or as TR mentioned, you can't get the whole thing at once without damaging your monthly limit. Suppose all I wanted was the rock textures, I'd prefer to just get those separately when I needed them. Either way, waiting for even a quarter gig to download and then finding out it was a failure is just upsetting.

Just uploaded aof_skyrim_textures.rar to the Skyrim Textures project on the vault.

Sorry I just seen that when I uploaded AOF Skyrim Textures I uploaded them as .dds Skyrim files. So I just did an update and uploaded them again as .tga files so they are now fully usable with NWN1.
