Beginners Guide

Post by Adam »

Hello,

Is there a dead basic installation guide for this mod? I've got the game installed and patched to 1112 but nothing else at all.

Apologies if I've missed it somewhere, I had a look round but I couldn't find anything.

IIRC; you just replace the files in your /DeusEx/Textures folder with the ones from the download.

Better way to do it: make a folder called newvision in your core deusex folder (C:\Deusex) and put the textures inside that, in a subfolder called textures, then edit your deusex.ini to look in that folder first:

Open deusex.ini and find

Paths=../Textures/*.utx


add this line, above that one:

Paths=..NewVision/Textures/*.utx


Thus it will look in the NV folder first, use any textures it finds there, and failing that, go on to find the originals. :)

You also need the updated renderer, which is why the instructions in the readme are a bit more complicated. Without them, you won't actually see the new textures.
