Possibly one of the best visual overrides I have ever used. It's simple, it's clean. But damn does it make a huge difference. Try going into the outskirts and caraigh with this override and wow at the different.
OMG please please PLEASE install this into your files!! Then walk around Bendir, Uhm, Shrine, Nexus Hills especially. Just install it and GAWK!!!! It's not just the trees given a touch of polish and prettied up, it's the sky as well. The sunset was marvelous.

Anyone seeing a green moon should likely remove the file named wskyn_001.tga and skyn_001.tga from their override folder and it should go back to only a single moon!
Though it also seems to get rid of a fabulous sunrise/set. T.T

On a serious note, I haven't noticed that. I'll have a looksy for myself. Althoug, Raven did say that the moon was a crap color because of the override too. I haven't noticed that either.

Hmmm, that's odd, because I definitely had really nice cloud-cover when it rained before I installed the override, and the only other thing I've installed since then are the heads.

Deactivated/Activated skyboxes?
Anyway, I tried Selvec's suggsted override, but this one was too heavy for my computer. =(

Yep, the tree override is awesome. Gonna add the cavern one soon and am hoping that someone stumbles upon a desert override, but I doubt it. So far I only found haks for the desert, and they were not that grand.

Underdark thing won't work to, as the underdark on Amia is made up of more then just the underdark tileset, rather made up of other tilesets to a believe.
Also, this is a desert one...but the TGA files to be used for the override are packed inside the dds. I'm to lazy to pull them out and take a look.

Got to utilities and find NWHak. Run that and then load that Hak file into it. Looks like it is saying to pull out all the TGA or DDS. One or the other.
I went and cleared my over-ride of most these, except the wolves. Seems one of them was causing my game to crash, though with no signs of lag before hand. I never deleted the Wolves since I had them well before all other Over-rides, so I thought that was a sign it wern't those causing it. (The wolves with the Greeny-yellow like glowing eyes)
The Weapon VFX's often glitched and I'd see big white rectangles flying of some weapons, mostly happened at the Bastion with the Kaz'horks.
I downloaded those tree Over-rides and the ones for the Roads and cliff sides to look like rocks, i think it was one of those which made me crash, though if it's one and not the other I'm not sure, I DL'ed them around the same time.
I experienced areas glitching, the textures all turning to a Solid white colour, cloaks turning a metallic shiny colour, though see through, then I would crash. Also when people opened portals, moreso greaters to the opposite server, I would see two massive white squares, over-lapping each other and spinning around, where the circle should have been.
So, since I downloaded alot of them within short time spaces between, im not too sure which did deffinately cause this and which didn't, other than the obvious weapon glitches.

for the rural trees...I love it though I hate the crab grass look of the roads and cliffs. I like the green of bioware grass, not tufts of desert bushes.
Also this one has better proportioned bodies. Just a warning, the screenies contain nudity. I apologise for this, but it's an optional install.

*gives selvec a compulsive bro-hug, whether he wants it or not*
These work. They make the human/half-elf body graphics look smooth like they should, not all blocky. I approve of teh jiggleh on the female "#0" torso as well. It's not overdone, but just smooth and slightly more realistic like you'd expect irl or something. Nothing ridiculous. And the male chests have curvatures like from a cologne commercial, lol.
As a note, there is no nudity in the actual override, that's just "sneak peaks" of another project the guy who made these things is working on, apparently.
My only complaint is that the tattooed #0 female now looks like a bowl of jelly or something. *shrug* Win some, loose some.
Wow that tree override is ridiculously awesome, but it created to much lag for my computer to handle. sad day. but that issue tormak was having with the creature overides and breath weapons, is it only him or everyone is having that issue?

Leggomi has the issue too, and I continue to have the issue even on my new computer.

i installed a was able to test it, it did exactly as tomak said it did, i'm trying to see if i can find where the guy who put together that override pack got it from and maybe find a fix, hopefully it will work
-edit-
i was unable to tell if there was a difference between the breath effects, but this seem to be where the guy who create the creature back lifted the dragon override from

its the file titled Override_Dragons.zip
if someone has the patients to test it

Yep, cold breath looks very retro, with those squares. Kind of cool!

Works perfect superdupery, though I imagine it may jar some people because he's made all the dragons their correct draconomicon sizes for Adults, as in, whites are smaller than reds, golds and silvers and reds are the biggest, etc.

I emptied the override map and I've installed these overrides:
Caves (nat_caves_tga.rar) - but I can't see any differences in the caves though
Forest (forrest_override.rar)
Rural override (toro_ttr01override.rar)
Tree override (bioware_rural_trees.zip)
Goblins (Goblins_Override.rar)
Kobold_reskin (high_res.rar)
Redux2 (undead package)
Zombie override (Zombie_Override.rar) - since zombies weren't on the list in Redux2.
I'm very pleased. The whole game feels a lot better. Entering Kohlingen mansion is a much more eerie experience and overall, the outdoor maps feel new and exciting.
Two oddities though:
The winterlings in Endirs Point are gone. They hit me but I can only hit them in self defence. Somehow the winterling bodies are gone. I suspect the kobold override since I got an error message when installing it (the only error), asking me if it was okay to overwrite another (override) file. I said yes. I hunted down the winterlings in two different occasions with the same result of non existing winterling bodies even though I saw the winterspiders in the same area fine.
All areas that I've entered this far in Amaia (A and B) after installing the overrides have been fabulous - with no lag on top of that. All except the one between Minmir Bridge and Kohlingen. There, my PC had a serious low frame rate. I don't know why.

OMG prismatic dragons are scary with that override
