Moguri Mod is a total revamp of the PC version of Final Fantasy IX helped by deep learning techniques (ESRGAN). The most important changes are in the background arts, that are now cleaner, more detailed and higher resolution. Moguri Mod also includes a custom implementation of Memoria Mod, offering more options over the original game.
It is good! It makes the game even better!
Amazing, 10/10 would install 10 timess
Decided I'd try this out over the PSX emulation I use for all my old games, its good, but there are issues. Which I'll list below in hopes they get fixed but FYI theres a lot of artwork that still needs converting to 16:9 (Ice Caverns for example) so those of you expecting 16:9 throughout, you won't get it.
1. In some cases artwork that is still 4:3 leads to some hilarious results like seeing characters that are meant to be off-screen just standing there, floating in black nothingness. When Zidane goes to visit Dagger in the castle when shes prepping to be queen for instance.
2. When searching for teasure on the world map with the chocobo mini game the hint screenshots are a blurry, pastile-like mess.
3. Possibly just a result of the vanilla PC port, but PS4 controller support is horrible, D-Pad doesn't work for one thing and in games like this the D-Pad is still useful.
4. World map and battle textures could really do with replacing, again I don't know if this is the result of the mod or vanilla PC port but to a texturer like me it sticks out like a sore thumb where the textures aren't true HD someone has just slapped two original textures together and flipped one so the matching face meets with the other.
5. I would have liked to see this mod address a few universal dislikes about FF9 such as not being able to control when a character uses their Trance "limit break" and having spells such as Water, level 3 elemental spells, Curaga, etc, target all allies or enemies.
Aside from these things, good work, 7/10 :)
Great MOD!
My Favorite game of all time so far, being able to play this on PC with better graphics is amazing.
This game deserves a real Remaster or Remake.
Thanks for the mod!
Amazing work!! Thank you!!
