The envisionment of SIN is to bring you what was promised by GSC for STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, instead of the gutted retail release we were left with. SIN aims to cover every aspect imaginable from gameplay intended to genuinely scare the player, to graphics for the absolute best visual experience, cut mutants, absolute realism, optimisations, stability, and a complete game mechanics overhaul, all without breaking the story. The idea is to present the player with a complete retail experience for the purist that liked SoC but wished it was far more fleshed out. In no way what so ever does SIN try to be like old beta or alpha builds of SoC, SIN aims to enhance everything SoC already has and give it continuity with CS and CoP - nothing more, nothing less.

Report RSS Who would be interested in me releasing a HD texture pack?

As the title says readers, who wants me to release a HD texture pack?

Posted by on

It's come to my attention that some of you at least would love to use the TK HD textures as a stand-alone mod. While I've never intended to release little chunks of TK as stand-alone mods taking TKs HD textures out and releasing them as a stand-alone mod would not take a significant investment of time. I need numbers here guys, just reply to this news feed if you would like the TK HD txtures released as a stand-alone. If enough people reply, I will make it so.

If enough people are interested, the HD pack would include;

- HD foliage (grass, trees, bushes, etc)
- HD NPCs with bump maps (custom bump maps, reworked textures, colour artefact removal, etc)
- HD metal textures with bump maps
- HD stone / brick / concrete textures with bump maps
- HD prop type textures with bump maps
- HD water with proper dudv maps etc
- Perfect Skycube textures (most aren't my own, but all have been reworked. They look truly awesome)
- All other misc type textures with bump maps
- Custom shaders

The pack would NOT include;

- HD weapon textures (this is simply because everybody has their own favoured weapon texture, added their own weapons from modders, etc)

So basically, everything would be HD, reworked, and bump mapped. I literally mean EVERYTHING, the entire game. A graphics card with a minimum of 2GB vRAM would be needed.

Well, I still need more votes really but I'll start to consider it. Along with if I should just release it on this mod page or give it its own mod page. Hm. Dunno what to do there really.

Sorry a bit late joining this vote, yes I'd be interested in this mod pack, I suppose having it's own mod page would be dictated by any future separate release mod packs you might consider putting together.

I don't think I would release any updates to the HD pack as it's already pretty much complete it'll be a straight rip out of TK so it's probably not needed making a separate mod page for it.I may leave the shaders out the pack thinking about things as well, it'll just make it more universal.

I guess I'll have to release a HD texture pack then :p in the meantime you can all download the latest TK build with the latest update and use the textures from there, as essentially thats what the HD texture pack will be, TKs textures ripped out.
