I downloaded this pack and played with it. I don't have an antivirus and nothing happened to my Windows 10. So I don’t even know what else to add. If you want to play with it, download at your own risk. If not, then you will either have to look for some alternative or just forget about it.

And quite frankly I don’t trust antiviruses. Because they themselves are like viruses. They slow down the system, consume memory, download updates whenever they want and do other things that are not required of them...I understand their need in the days of Windows XP...but now? In 2023, you should be more afraid of miners than of viruses.
Yeah I get what you mean... I just redownloaded it and it didn't give me the notifcation this time so, I guess it was a false flag.

Hi, I want to say thank you for these packs, and I want to say about the hd textures on GTA SA, there is not enough Deagle hd texture, I hope it will be fixed.

Спасибо за все текстуры!!! Я пользуюсь ими на моëм телефоне с эмулятором Aethersx2, и у меня возникла проблема с текстурами игры NFS mw , а именно с текстурами Солнца, можно ли это как то исправить? Screenshot_2023-11-03-16-15-13-561_xyz.aethersx2.android.jpg

Added Shadow of the Colossus
Added Street Fighter EX3 (for the 4 people in the world that like it :D)
Hello friend. First, thank you very much for this. I'm one of four people who likes Street Fighter EX3!

However, unlike other games, this texture pack isn't working 100% for me. Letter number textures do not load. Any tips? Am I having some wrong configuration? The people in the YouTube videos managed to make this wonderful package work 100%..

Thank you again!

Dude, I love your work!

As a kid born in the early 90s, the PS2 era shaped my gaming experience. And wow, that was a great time for gaming.

These games deserve the love you give them, making them more enjoyable to be played on modern PCs and monitors. Because unfortunately they don't look as great as they seem in our memories.

As a fan of 2000s arcadey extreme sports games - first of all, the Tony Hawk Series - I would really appreciate HD Texture Packs for games like Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder or Kelly Slaters's Pro Surfer.

But Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder has another problem: It is extremely blurry compared to other PS2 games on the emulator. It's everywhere: fonts, menus, and in fact what looks worst of all is the actual gameplay . And I have found no solution for this so far. Maybe some old graphical effect that just looks shit in modern resolutions.

As someone who is not much into things like that, I guess this must be something different, somewhere in the code. So if there is no solution to the extreme blur problem, I guess it wouldn't even be worth the effort to make an HD Texture Pack.

Matt Hoffman's Pro BMX 2 is another one. Looks alright, it even has a working widescreen patch! But it is capped at 30 FPS, no solution so far. So, in this case: Not worth the effort for a HD Texture Pack when you are like me and can't bear 30 FPS gameplay.

For more popular games, the community provides great fixes, patches/cheats and texture packs which make the games extremely enjoyable. And i am very thankful for that. You guys make these things in your leisure time.

When game companies make remasters with similar quality, they get hyped and sold for full game price - despite having many bugs, sometimes even game breaking ones. Which is a shame. But that's a different topic.

Hey, I downloaded the NFSMW texture pack and found out that a couple of sun glow textures conflicts with the GPU Target CLUT setting (which is enabled by default to prevent the glow from appearing in front of some buildings) and it ends up messing the sun (screenshot below). I'm listing the texture names so that you don't have to figure them out.

a379a197daefd590-8cac9f88b58e1909-00005dd3.dds (this one is the main culprit), a479b2eda5a38384-22adff9397d58b62-00005dd3.dds (this one reduces the intensity of the glow itself).

Loving your Ratchet & Clank stuff! Playing Deadlocked as a palate-cleanser from some other games that I'm playing atm that has a lot of grinding, but - I noticed that my bots' deployable grindrails are invisible with the texture pack enabled, as are the beams of light from the lighthouses in Valix Belt. Haven't noticed anything else missing, but would love if those things could be fixed, cos it's only because the game directs Ratchet to the grindrail when you're close enough to it that any mission where Ratchet has to jump onto a deployable grindrail isn't impossible just from falling into the abyss.

Thanks for your work bringing so many graphical improvements to old faves!

Hey everyone, I've been gone for a long time, been very rough and busy but I'm back.

I won't be able to drop multiple packs a week like I used to but I'll do what I can.

I just added packs for:

Disney Extreme Skateboard Adventure
Half-Life
Resident Evil: Code Veronica X

My total now is at 101.

Thank you all for your feedback and support :)

Also, I've started working on PS1 texture packs as well so if anyone is interested, please let me know and I will create a repo link here. Please note that these packs only work on Retroarch with the Beetle PSX HW core for now.

Definitely would be interested in what magic you could create for ps1 games. If past work is any indication they would look amazing.

Everyday there is a new pack by you is a good day to me😎

Thank you so much, I appreciate that :)

I'm still learning to work with PS1 textures, it's a bit of a mission but I'm getting there.

I'm hoping to get my first one out today.

I'm going to fix the NFS MW pack today :)

So this is what I've been working on the last couple of weeks.

Don't know if anyone even remembers C-12 and T'ai Fu but I loved them back in the day.
