yes thank you very much for the response, this is what i am looking for.
I did notice there were a number of meshes that are very clearly oblivion specific meshes and also meshes that were original that used oblivion textures.
I did assume the caves were retextures of the original obvliion caves, and that's why i started a thread on here to make new modular cave assets.
i was most interested in the spires and the clutter. Some of which i saw were Lost Spires specific, which is what i was interested in using. Over half the models i looked at in nifskope, and i looked at all of them, have low resolution maps that need to be redone, so i picked about 15 or so objects that i wanted to convert.
Mostly though i wanted the textures. His email on the website is offline, you can try to send an email and it will come back immediately to you.
I was thinking about starting a thread on the Nexus called Lost Spires 2, just to smoke him out and get a definitive opinion on it. I have decided to shift my mod again from a detective mod to include a majority of it to a new archeology guild like in lost spires now that i can for sure use his textures.
But even then i'm not clear if i should do that, i've been busy modeling new assets, but any opinions on the direction or anything else i need to be careful with is very much appreciated. The conversion is on a little bit of a hold, but i hope someone takes this info and converts and releases these assets for Oblivion, b/c some of them are really good.
