http://massassi.net/levels/files/3092.shtml

This is Aquaparke, a really gorgeous level for Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 that was released in 07, long after most people had moved on from JK. Some interesting texture and "cog" (JK script) tricks were used, and the level design itself is excellent and plays great with a group of people.

I'd post screenshots, but the links on Massassi aren't working and I don't wanna just post the thumbnails.

There's a texture pack for Paper Mario that uses a lot of the textures from Super Paper Mario (Wii) and looks smooth at 1080p

Only problem with it is that some of the textures look off from time to time, or just simply use the default textures instead since the texture pack was never truly finished.

Oh wow.

I'm not saying it's allowed, but an occasional mention of it isn't the end of the world. Pulling the self-righteous "rules are rules" spiel just makes you look an arrogant prick with control issues. It's not your job to police /vr/, so give it a rest.

I asked this in the Favorite RTS thread, but maybe someone here would know.

I'm trying to set up a USB drive of my father's favorite retro computer games (and some other nostalgic stuff we used to play together), and I need some guidance with Command and Conquer Red Alert.

RTS games aren't really my thing, and I've been looking all over the place. I want to get a portable installation going with support for high resolutions and all the expansion packs and single player missions. Online play doesn't really matter, I doubt my Dad would care or have the time to git gud enough to enjoy it.

So far my options seem to be Iran's Portable RA (http://iran.cnc-comm.com/ra/)), which seems to be a straight bug fix, content restoration, and high res pack; OpenRA (http://www.openra.net/)) which seems to be more about adding modern features and usability to the game, but focuses on online and rebalancing, which kind of rubs me the wrong way; or Nyergud's 1.06c patch, which seems to be the same thing as Portable RA?

All things considered PortableRA seems like the way to go. Anyone have any notes or tips, shit I should consider?

I've already got Chex Quest set up. Used to take turns on that all the time.

You know, now that I think about it, Vib-Ribbon looks great in HD, since it's just untextured lines. I wish there was some Jaguar emulator out there that could play Tempest 2000 with smooth lines. Not that it's bad the way it is; it would just be cool.

>It looks slightly smoothed though...
well, same bitrate (bits per second) with more frames per second, you get less bits per frame, i.e. looks more potato

similar with resolution being only a factor of quality, not filesize - the higher the resolution, the less bits per pixel (and more potato)

it's really simple equations

In games like silent hill, a rustic engine works quite well, with the models shifting sligthly when they move and stuff like that, It shouldn't be that hard to make something that imitates it.
Think about it: The human mind searches for equivalent detail, but having a 2048X1024 texture on a featureless wall will make someone uneasy, not unlike the hollow face illusion.
Thinking about it, is there any game with a hollow face illusion?

It is one texture for the walls. That's how Doom is. One texture per wall segment.

I think that was everyone's main criticism. Especially when combined with the simple, angular geometry, it does look like Minecraft with an HD texture pack. At least with Minecraft you aren't necessarily constrained to only using the same texture on any given wall.

I should clarify that Doom can have 2 textures on a wall vertically and/or a large number segmented horizontally, but the basic levels don't make much use of such abilities.

>>	Anonymous Sat Jan 17 12:52:33 2015 No.2184031 >>2183926 I was under the impression that most criticisms were about how it wasn't the same textures, rather than how repetitive it is.

It's repetitive and is so much higher detail than the geometry. It... doesn't look very good IMO. "Looking like Minecraft with HD textures" is not a compliment. Some people like it, but it's jarring and not very fitting.

I bet it looks a lot better in-game in motion, though, as things usually do.
