Yeah, thank God I've realized this before spending money on AI. The first game also has AI, but it's less noticeable.

These textures are between 1K and 2K and DDS format, they can't be compressed further 😅 But quality is always better than size, a custom texture pack with 1K resolution will always look better than a 4K upscaled pack.

Thank you for the explanation

It currently features 15 colossi and most of the map! I'm working on the last boss

@@sadorigami u are the boss

Thanks! Not for now, SR2 for the emulator has a particular way of displaying textures: depending of the camera distance, the texture gets reduced in size, which leaves you with more than 20 variants of the same texture for each file (lots of work, and a very big file size). If someone could make a patch to disable that whithout breaking anything, then I'll do it!

After experiencing marvel that is SR1 remaster , SR2 remaster made me downright angry.

We can do some tests, why not? Add me on Discord, my name there is sadorigami

Hola! Digamos que el mejor es el Soul Reaver de PS1 por cómo manejó un mundo abierto sin pantallas de carga (bueno, las animaciones largas de abrir puertas y los pasillos largos eran esas pantallas hehe) y una jugabilidad extremadamente entretenida con esa mecánica única de cambiar de plano. Pero mi favorito siempre será el Blood Omen 2 por mis recuerdos con él, además de que Kain como protagonista es mucho más carismático que Raziel, mandando a todos a la verga 🤣

@sadorigami Es lo que pensé, la intro del 1 es lo que mas recuerdo excepto el juego en si xD Probé el 2 y me pareció muy tosco o aburrido aunque solo lo jugué por 1 hora

Thank you! Sadly I have tons of other projects already started and I really want to start working on Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.

I would like to ask is that true that Onimusha 2 backgrounds textures can't be upscaled?

I don't have that game, so I don't know. But there's a lot of textures than can't be upscaled or do not extract when trying to dump them. Texture replacement is not perfect, and in some games you only realize once it's too late.

Thanks for the explanation there is another creator working on Resident Evil Code Veronica and the texture quality is amazing the best i have seen take a look youtube.com/@juanchotexhd8882?si=ltUizosirAfU61cz

Thanks for the explanation its a shame that it can't be upscaled is a good game

Thank you! I've uploaded a comparison between the Remastered intro and the texture pack

It's a 1:1 recreation of the original trailer from 1999, it was used both for the Dreamcast texture pack and the official remaster 😄

They aren't

@@lordnanni3177they do be . Other than the characters nothing is improved

Sadly the Official Remaster uses AI for the textures, you can see it on the gears inside the time chamber: their borders have hair instead of teeth because of the cheap upscale (for my textures, I've used a real gear and then took some teeth off to show how rare the whole machinery is). Soul Reaver Remastered uses some of Raina's textures, while Soul Reaver 2 Remastered is almost 100% AI upscaled, that's why the first one looks more detailed. I reported a texture problem in the LoK Discord server and I got attacked by the developers for almost an hour, the sad thing is that the thing I reported made it into the final game: if you go to the launch trailer of the game, the first comparison shows Dumah, but part of the green wall behind him doesn't convert to HD. This breaks my heart because Raina's work was the reason I started doing this hobby. But after learning that she's the director of the remaster, I don't have any sort of respect for her work anymore. PS: I'll upload a comparison between the Remaster intro and mine later, to see what's changed. Also, the hairy gear example: ibb.co/hYkvYRw

@@sadorigami Yes please, it is such a pity they gave this to an unexperienced director and just AI upscales some textures. I could tell from a mile they are AI, yours are far more superior.

@@sadorigami Ive been on that server, oh lord I've provoked the inferno with no intention

Cold Fear already has an HD Pack and someone is working on RE: Zero and Onimusha. You can check all the TexturePacks made here: shorturl.at/hV5iY

​Thank you for your reply yes cold fear has a texture pack but very small diffrence and who is working on resident evil zero so i can sub to his youtube channel as well

Thanks!

Right now I'm working on: -Shadow of the Colossus -Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner -Guitar Hero And as soon as I finish them: -Ico -God of War -Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

@ I’m familiar with your SOTC work, looks great. Was going to suggest God of War!

Thanks! Moebius teeth was my favorite texture to work on! I've made them rotten to reflect the corruption in his words, and for the eyes I used real eye cataract images, to foreshadow his blindness to the truth. Every texture I work on has a lore behind it 😄

Ya no existe 🥲

Thanks!

Are you using PCSX2 1.7 o earlier? The first thing would be downloading the latest version. If you're having some problem related to the program then you should go and seek help in the PCSX's Discord, you can find a link in their page pcsx2.net/ If you have the latest version and this is happening it's the first time I hear about something like that.

Hi! The night mode is not available yet. I'll be adding those once I finish the remaster. The final colossus is the only one left to remaster.

Heyy, do you have 7zip installed? Windows also has an option to extract files.

@@sadorigami I solved it, thank you very much! by bios file do you mean that I have to download the bios of the Ps2? what tutorial can I see? Thanks☺

@@cristianbalasini6841 You have to dump the bios from your console, but I remember someone who said he just went to google and the first result was a site called retrostic and it worked just fine.

@@sadorigami okay great, now in the first boot configuration it asks me to select the bios rom. "browse to choose a different folder where pcsx2 searches for ps2 bios roms." which folder should I select?

@@cristianbalasini6841 You have to create a folder called bios inside the emulator folder and paste the bios there 😀

Buenas! La mayoría me dice que la baja de gamesgx, yo la uso en un ssd aparte en casa y en mis documentos en la oficina 😄

@sadorigami aaaa Okio vap gracias

@@panterxbeats Heyy! Have you tried turning off mipmapping?

@sadorigami yes! I made sure that was the first thing I had off. Idk what else it could be :(

update: wow I feel silly. even though I set everything up with the compatible version of pcsx2 I accidentally booted the game with the latest version since it's in my start menu lol 😵‍💫 I'll leave this here in case anyone does the same!!

@@panterxbeats If you can't find a fix you can join the texture packs community discord and I'll help you there shorturl.at/AYpVU 😀 I was testing the latest version of the emulator and couldn't replicate the problem :(

@@terryvaleriano8681 Funciona en AetherSX2 too! Just download the lite version, that's the Android compatible one.

@@IconPNG Heyy, the only thing missing is the final boss, but I'm dealing with health problems right now. But I recommend playing the original version first!

@sadorigami Sorry to hear that, hope you recover asap! And thanks!

Heyy thanks! 💜

@@Kartty43 Only PCSX2

Thanks! Works for me, but here's the direct link gbatemp.net/threads/alpha-channel-remover-tool.640232/

Almost! Only one colossus left!

@@sadorigami so if I download it now I can still play and see the game with this texture?? Whick colossi is not remastered??? Thanks for your immediate response, and also congrats to you for all of this. Also congrats for be featured with Nomad Collosus and his team for the cut content.

@@vader148 If you download it now you can play the game in HD until the 15th colossus, the last one and the final cutscenes are still in progress!

Don't worry about that, I'm glad you like it! Thank you 💜

Tutorial for installation: ruclips.net/video/JE24WC-g89c/видео.html If you want to learn on how to make texture packs you can join the community Discord: shorturl.at/YRyJ5

Sure! shorturl.at/pjRn4

Buenas! Seguiste las instrucciones de la imagen en la carpeta del Google Drive? Ese problema se arregla desactivando el mipmapping en las opciones gráficas del emulador 😉

@@coolmuzt The PS2 version has a button mapping menu, there you can change any button to whatever action you'd like!

@@sadorigami Oh great!

It means that my textures and filters will be available for Tribute as optional features 😄

Oh, I forgot to add the tutorial in the description of the video. Here: ruclips.net/video/JE24WC-g89c/видео.html You may ask me as many questions as you wish, and I'll guide you!

Oh, that video was just a test, a very low quality one. But I'm running a poll right now to see what game I remaster next: God of War or Prince of Persia: shorturl.at/Hvi23 Progress should be pretty fast since GoW is a lineal game with separated levels 💪

Thank you!

This is the PS2 version running on emulator, I don't like the PS3 one.

@@sadorigami There are rumours that emulation of the PS2 version on PC breaks the climbing physics similar to how broken they are in the PS3 remaster. Have you seen these type of game play issues on PS2 shadow Colossus emulation?

@@Augnalius Not at all!

@@sadorigami That's good. It looks like you've done a great job. I really like your videos and faithful your visual changes are to the PS2 original and I hope to see more videos from you.

@@Augnalius Thanks! There's plenty of videos to come, and then the Ico remaster!
