Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 - The Modding Dungeon Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Modding General Importing resources from DOS EE to DOS 2

This certainly can be done and i expect this to happen more or less soon. Although DOS2 is using some different technology like PBR (Physical Based Rendering) Texturing. (There is information about roughness, metalness ... In one of the texture masks). Therefor to import DOS 1 assets might need some work to get same "quality " or will be visibly different. ( although my guess is 90% wouldn't even notice)

I don't know about the animations. If it is possible to import orcs and so on.

But my guess is that some modder soon makes the effort to import assets from dos1 as technically this should be still easier than doing assets from scratch. ( mostly needs time)

I am pretty sure people here would tell you the workflow how to do it. If youd like to invest the time ?

Edit: as you ask mostly for armor character assets: this would also mean messing with animations, which is naturally more complex and easily gets glitchy, but still should be possible.
