This project is a total texture replacement pack which aims to make the game look as beautiful and realistic as possible while keeping the original feel of the game.

After a year of no new releases and not much information from me, I finally released a downloadable version of the mod. As many of you have noticed, I deleted the alpha version that was available in 2016. Since then, I have taken slightly different approach with the mod. I've noticed many mistakes in the alpha version. The worst one was not focusing on the lore very much. I changed a lot of textures into something I thought would be better looking and more realistic but I noticed that it does not fit the game atmosphere at all. I added a lot of ugly huge bricks to the city walls and ugly looking floor. It was bad, I admit it. There is even an entire article on reddit where people judge my mod. The reception was bad. So I examined all the textures again and corrected all the flaws I could, remaking the textures from the previously released version again. That's why I removed the downloadable alpha version, so people would no longer see it and this is the reason that it took such a long time to release the next version. In version 2.0 I am confident that it is better and more playable, more enjoyable. I hope you will share my optimism. Here are some screenshots (right click on them and then click show picture to see the original size):
I already have an entire plan in my head how I want to release the versions here is the list of the future releases:
Version 3: The whole update will focus on draw distance. I will try to make good looking distant textures. I would call it a beta version.
Version 4: It will focus on remaking the interiors like crypts, caves etc. Also foliage and environment will be improved.
Version 5: I would call it a finishing touch to the entire mod. I will correct the mistakes and things I think should look better, also I may add small details like improving water or other particles even further. I would call it a complete version.
Version 6: Not sure if it ever needs releasing. If so I will work on it too.
Anyway, I hope you will enjoy the latest version as much as I enjoyed working on it. Thank you guys for any support you have given me. Have fun !

Hello. I really liked the mod, the characters really feel retextured, and other things about this mod. I only see one small drawback. Desmond / Ezio and Mario's (ezio's uncle) faces look a little strange. Ezio seems to be a little older and the scar is very visible. almost exaggerated at times. Desmond, the same whith scar very visible and sometimes he looks strange because of his beard. and Mario... better see photos so you know what I'm talking about.

EDIT2: the characters' faces look strange sometimes. I haven't been able to test altogether. since I don't know which characters it retextures exactly. but desmond, ezio, ezio's father (especially), mario ezio's uncle. They look strange. Too saturated and overdone in some areas of the face. and facial hair like mustaches or beards look out of place as if they don't fit at times. otherwise shaun, lucy. Rebecca looks good. Desmond just has something strange with his beard and 2 scars. Ezio also sports two scars on his lips and looks weird.
About the mod is there anything that is complete? For example, are the npc or important characters all remastered? Could you tell me how long it takes to finish this mod? I really liked it a lot

Doesn't work with Steam,just makes the game start a loop of OpenTexmod or Texmod,caused by the Uplay Launcher wich you can't disable.

I really thank you for this mod. It's an amazing masterpiece. I hope to see version 3.0 as soon as possible.
I thought I followed the setup instructions but when I run OpenTexMod and then follwing "step5.png" I launch AC2, AC2 crashes instantly and I get an error message from OTM:
"wxWidgets Debug Alert
..\..\src\common\bookctrl.cpp(442): assert "nPage < m_pages.size()" failed in wxBookCtrlBase::DoRemovepage(): invalid page index in wxBookCtrlBase::DoRemovePage()

[05] 02BB05F0
Do you want to stop the program? "
Does anyone know how to fix this?
PS- Running all .exe's as Administrator doesn't help.
PPS- Acutally, even AC2 doesn't run on its own (without OTM) anymore. Great. :-/
Hey, great mod but just one thing, it seems like your mode doesn't work with Reshade, any solution ?
