All major textures in the game were increased to 400%+ of their original pixels, sharpened, and had some detail added. Then new normal maps were generated to take advantage of the greater detail, which results in a significant improvement over the original graphics. This enjoys 0% compression files, which helps offset the fact that larger files requires more system resources.
Just sharpened textures with increased contrast on specular and bump map textures.
Wonderful work indeed , makes the game oh so much nicer to look at and live in .
This is the kind of mod that makes me glad that I am a pc gamer. Thank you for the much improved textures!
