It is back! Optimized so that there shouldn't be any crashes. Materials, textures, masks, patterns and (soon) normals are all separate downloads. Each will work on its own, so mix and match as you like. All assets have been upscaled, and most have been individually improved/tweaked. This is a work in progress. ### Every pattern has been maticulously edited via Adobe Illustrator to make them as crisp as possible. Resolution has been increased, but filesize is lower than vanilla. Some textures have been completely recreated from scratch.   You shouldn't notice any performance problems, but if so, let me know. ----- ## Password: || modworkshop || This mod is a work in progress. ----- ## To do: || * ~~Add the remaining patterns~~ * Fix a couple of ugly new patterns * ~~Sharpen patterns without increasing resolution any further~~ * Create new normals * Add subtle improvements to various masks * ~~Remove extraneous files~~ * Fix some glitched patterns (1024x1024) || ----- ## Note about patterns: || Due to the way the engine processes pattern textures, I found it interesting that Overkill did not export the files via PNG-8 with dithering. This is why some textures revealed your default mask, despite what material you used. I am resolving this, but the cost is some textures may seem more crisp than necessary (the mist is a good example). As I tinker around with the dithering options, I will continue to improve these patterns. It should be noted that the vanilla patterns are 512x512. Mine are 2048x2048. However, they are **better** for memory than the default textures. This is because they have been exported with literally only 3 colors: Red, Green and Blue. The way the system was designed. It seems the devs got lazy... So yes. You get better pattern textures and better performance. It is a win-win! || ----- ## FAQ: || Q: *Where do I install this?* A: mod_overrides Q: *The [insert name] texture still looks like crap* A: Let me know which one, and I may try to improve it. Your feedback is appreciated! Q: *My game has crashed!* A: Most likely you have too many mod_overrides mods installed. Please let me know. Q: *Whenever I try to customize a mask, the game crashes or hangs!* A: Please wait a few seconds when you see the materials screen so that all of the pictures can populate. Please let me know. Q: *Whenever I choose a material, my mask stays white!* A: Same answer as above ^ Q: *Why do the uncustomized mask textures still look like crap?* A: Because this engine sucks and I can't truly increase resolutions like I had wanted... Stay tuned for future updates. Q: *I have a different issue!* A: Please let me know in the comments. ||
