These textures replace the original low-res textures from the Unreal game with high resolution replacement textures that look virtually identical at a distance, but have a much higher degree of detail as you get closer up. Therefor the game looks crisp, detailed, and beautiful instead of blurry and low res!
Unreal Tournament (UT99) has its own version.

Sadly, this year, 2024 the founder of the Unreal Retexturing Project passed away. Brecht van der Sande, known as DieHard in the Unreal Community, began it in 2004 and worked on it until 2014. He was an extremely talented and committed person who made such a huge contribution to the Unreal and UT HD texture set. Notably many of the Vortex Rikers (PlayerShp), DecayedS, SkyCity and lots of the environmental textures are by him. By 2015 his many health problems prevented him from working on the project any longer. DieHards’ work is included in my release, and I am attempting to bring the Unreal Retexturing Project (URP) to its conclusion with my efforts. We owe DieHard a big debt of gratitude!

Installation \ Configuration
================================================================
For Unreal 1 be sure to have the 227 patch installed from: www.oldunreal.com
Warning- never use these textures on a server or when mapping.
In short, there are only 2 things needed to upgrade Unreal’s textures to HD. Overwrite the original .UTX files with the new ones.
Have “use S3TC=TRUE” in the renderer preferences. For Unreal 227 I also recommend turning on shadows in Preferences - Pawn Shadows - realtime, and decoration shadows.
Also in Advanced options set Rendering - VolumetricLighting to true for your renderer. This turns on fog effects (UT99 as well)

Under the renderer settings for DX11 I don't see anything for useS3TC, but it shows up under DX9 and opengl. Did I install it incorrectly or something?
In DX11, S3TC is "always on" so there is nothing you need to do.
