Description: Introducing the new BIG mod of the AoVv series, a comprehensive retexture that breathes new life into the banners found throughout the game. This mod aims to enhance the visual appeal of these important decorative elements, which represent the rich history, culture, and factions of Vvardenfell.

Features:

• High-resolution textures: Each banner has been meticulously recreated using high-resolution textures, providing a crisp and detailed appearance that fits seamlessly into the world of Morrowind. The textures maintain the original aesthetic of the game while enhancing the overall visual quality.
• Lore-friendly design: I have ensured that each banner remains true to the established lore and artistic style of the game. These reimagined designs feature intricate patterns, vibrant colors, and authentic motifs that bring the banners to life and make them a pleasure to discover as you explore Vvardenfell.
• Complete coverage: The mod covers all banners found in the base game, including faction banners, city banners, and even unique banners tied to specific quests or locations. From the proud banners of House Redoran to the mysterious banners of the Tribunal Temple, you'll find every banner carefully reimagined in high detail. The things not covered yet are giant hanging tapestries of the Vivec City, that can be downloaded from the another retexture of mine - AoVv Vivec and Velothi.
• Easy installation: AoVv Banners is designed to work seamlessly with both the vanilla game and existing mods. The mod is packaged with a simple installer, allowing you to easily add these stunning retextures to your game without any compatibility issues. Also, main and optional files can be downloaded separately.
• Mod-resources: Only on this page I offer you psd-files, that were  used to recreate all the banners. You can freely use them as the base for you mod.
  

Experience Morrowind like never before with the Aestetika of Vvardenfell. As you journey through the land of Morrowind, admire the enhanced banners that stand as testament to the rich culture and history of this unforgettable world.

Technical Details:
This mod changes 36 textures of the banners, you can find in the base game, to the new and detailed ones.

This mod doesn't completely cover its preview release, Ashlander Banners Retexture, because it doesn't include TR textures and source files for Ashlander Banners.

Old Files:
