If there was a way to use hardlink for resources from the main part of the game, then would not have to divide the package into two variants. Otherwise, the size of the package will grow in two and will take about 480 Mb (double size due to duplicates). 1) download this: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DNumU5t_YdynQRfZgpZNtSCDK8dSr6fd (this is version of your pack, modified by me, which take 242 MB and works both in original and deathkings) 2) unpack 3) check file size of _TESTMOD\hexen_both.pk3 4) run _TESTMOD__ORIGINAL.BAT and check that it works 5) run _TESTMOD_DEATHKINGS.BAT and check that it works 6) analyze structure of _TESTMOD\hexen_both.pk3 and make changes to your own mod 7) thank you in advance On 3/3/2019 at 10:45 PM, grandgreed said: And one more thing - your screenshots.

Glad to see it works For doomsday, it can be done in next way: take your current package for original, and put Deathkings titlepic to Patches\Hexen-dk folder. This way it should work in doomsday as a single 242 MB package If you will have problems with Doomsday, please tell me, I will create example package for you and test it in my Doomsday before uploading 26 minutes ago, grandgreed said: All sprites have original aspect ratio.

For heretic it should be next (same logic as with Hexen): Doomsday: Patches/heretic-ext for heretic shadow GZDoom: heretic heretic.heretic heretic.shadow I'm not sure about GZDoom ones, but I will test them if needed. If it doesn't work, I'll contact GZDoom dev team 2 Share this post Link to post
Manhs Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) I hope someone could do it for Heretic too, even if there is a bit less textures than in Hexen (if i remember) and it's less atmospheric, there is a lot of good and nice stuff who could look like really nice with this "mod", i could imagine the undead warrior or malotaur remade! and there is a lot of fan expansions who are vanilla! back to the topic, sorry.. Again, this mod could work with fan expansions for Hexen, right? Edited March 5, 2019 by Manhs 1 Share this post Link to post

There is a fanmade wad for heretic called "Masters of Chaos", which use both heretic and hexen monsters: https://zdoom.org/wiki/Masters_of_Chaos I modified current pack (so playing Heretic it will not ignore Hexen's HiRes content) and tried it with heretic, and here is how it look like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yh9yDBDAPm8&list=PL5QwAqOy7WABpsDsuzSKwTk2S8QnzsLg5&index=2&disable_polymer=true&t=1h25m59s#t=1h25m59s (watch at 1:25:59) So yes, it should work with custom mappacks and mods, but as I understand, in most cases (or at least, in some cases) you will be forced to modify this pack 1 Share this post Link to post

Manhs Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) I started to play it, amazing work! Fun to see the animations of the enemies with this style! I tested with some expansions like Nadir.wad or Shadow of Cronos, it works but even if some new added textures will stay like the original, what about adds like new items/weapons/enemies, can it work without crashing? 0 Share this post Link to post

Manhs Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) Sorry, i mean, if i use the Neural Texture pack with fan expansions who use new stuff like custom textures, can the game crash or bug? 0 Share this post Link to post
dpkonofa Posted March 7, 2019 16 hours ago, Manhs said: Sorry, i mean, if i use the Neural Texture pack with fan expansions who use new stuff like custom textures, can the game crash or bug? It shouldn't crash as long as you load the custom wad *after* loading this pak. This file is essentially just replacing textures and most engines load in a first-in, first-out basis. If you load this pak after loading a custom one, it'll just override anything in the custom one. That being said, any wads or paks with custom textures will not be upscaled so you may get a weird looking mix of high-res, sharp textures with low-res original textures. There's no way for this pak to fix that, though, as every texture that's been updated has been processed individually. Unless someone does the same for a custom wad/pak, there will be a mismatch. 0 Share this post Link to post

Unless you have an old potato or you are going for as close to vanilla as possible but still running an OS later then DOS/Windows 98 (in which case you wouldn't be running this pack) you should be using OpenGL to render since it's hardware accelerated on modern machines. 0 Share this post Link to post

Contact the GZ team so that they solve this issue at the engine level. For now, I don't know easy solution. Hard solutions are next: 1) Redraw (patch) original sprites (in photoshop) to widescreen versions and then apply neural filter to patched sprites 2) Modify sprite offsets 3) Modify decorate code https://zdoom.org/wiki/Classes:FWeapFist (to change Xoffsets) For example, in my mod with 3D model of fighter's weapon1, designed for 4:3 (because I playing in 4:3 screen), when I faced problem "some streamers want to stream with my mod in fullHD widescreen resolution", I just created separate widescreen version of the mod, and changed Xoffsets of the fist, so they looks like next: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqDE0tknpXA&t=4m27s#t=4m27s (watch from 4:27 to 4:30) Of course, it is possible for any of you to ask GZDoom devs to create easy sulition in GZDoom code, but I don't think they will want to spend time on this 0 Share this post Link to post
Manhs Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) A guy in the Blood discord community tried to make a upscale version of the Serpent, what do you think about the horns, he said it could be better? Does it need to be more accurate like that? They compared with the pics of the first post. His version Here is your version of Serpent (but i feel like it's not really different comparing with the last version?) Version in the first post of the topic: Version in the v1 of the mod: I suppose the pics of the stuff in the first post are the first versions of enemies and textures? The version in game looks pretty neat for me. Just in case to not be wrong if i share some pics! 0 Share this post Link to post

The widescreen mod you keep talking about was a custom graphic that someone photoshopped using the original as a base. The upscale pak is only working on vanilla textures that were included with the game. At what point are you going to listen to what you're being told? 0 Share this post Link to post
