import textures into .s3d files using EQZIp

153 textures synthesized , 49 removed , 25 hidden

upscale ( swinir )
paintover + photo collage + filterforge
stable diffusion ( controlnet + asymmetric tiling )
adobe generative fill ( inpainting fixes )

Texture Format

using texconv in python to convert the PSD to DDS , then renamed to BMP to match the existing files ( importing without auto dds conversion as DXT1 , for mipmap support , and flipping vertically )
textures with opacity are saved to tga , then imported into EQZIP with the option to convert imports to DDS in the preferences set to 16bit .

Hidden

a number of objects have been hidden by changing their material to transparent and texture set to zero opacity .
using the WLD Suite Transparentifier
hidden objects : meat , butcherblock rock , chain hook , metal spheres , throne grunge
