A small chainmail texture resource for modders. Features each chainmail that appears in Oblivion.
----------
Features:
----------
1. 2048x2048 jpg files that are tileable and are meant to supplement your texture when making a new texture and wanting it to match vanilla assets.
2. Also includes a tiled version of a copper chainmail picture I found on the internet on [CG Textures] (http://cgtextures.com/).
Does NOT include:
1. Grayscale alpha versions for normal maps (what allows you to give the chainmail gleam).
2. Normal maps.
-------
NOTES:
-------
These are not perfectly generated. I used a program called ImageSynth 2 and didn't get too detailed in generating the files as this is primarily a texture to be inserted and chopped up into another texture. It just makes it easier to add large blocks of chainmail, as it requires a bit of work to get good tiling chainmail if you just pull from one of Bethesda's textures and manually work it until it fits for you.
I used to manually do chainmail for my texturing and wanted an easier way to do it so I made these after I obtained ImageSynth 2 and realized just how easy it would be.
