HD runway/ramp textures
-
@awmk1 said in HD runway/ramp textures:
How many different textures are included? Are all airports modified?
All old airbases runways and taxi. I saved all files with mipmap and they are pretty good now.
-
@jackal Thank you! So far that is what I have. If you have more images to remaster, please tell me! Perhaps later these images could be placed into the main game install files together with my HD cockpit images for the following updates, to make them default.

@vattila11
Glad for your kind appreciation, dear mate.
As our great @Arty - the real expert here - already told you, it will be necessary, I guess, to give a closer look to your crafts, as first, just to understand what kind of choices you made when doing them.After having done that… we will see, and I could report my impressions.
Almost needless to say that… it would be necessary to get the previous devs’ permission, if any theater’s tiles are involved, but you already knew it, I’m sure.With best compliments again and regards.

@jackal
How do they compare with Arty’s HD Runways…?Any side x side comparison shots…?
-
@aragorn
You are so right! Here I got the true term of comparison I was seeking for and couldn’t remember…Thanks you so much and with best regards, dearest Ara’.
-
@aragorn I havent’t run them but looking at the textures they are far superior than mine.
The only “thing” is the details that need some love cause I believe they will be obvious once in pit.
Back than I was with 8GB of ram and I couldn’t even imagine working on more details. I had made a try but it was a killer to wait on production app. I only did that in the tire marks and some stains - oil marks. -
@Aragorn , @Arty and @vattila11
I have just finished to make a comparison test of the two sets both.I felt embarassed at the end… but my own personal conclusion (based on my personal taste, I want to be absolutely clear on that) was that they are good both.
No wonder of that.Those by Arty are the most refined still (I have to recall that they have been since the 4.32 good times, an awesome result also at our present days then!).
Those by vattila had the not so strange appeal, for me, of being worn, so they gave the impression of how they may are in reality, to my eye.Conclusively, my warm compliments to you both, and best regards to all, my dearest friends.
@Aragorn no shots, I’am afraid… they were so many to be caught, and there were soo many particulars to be highlighted. Sorry!
(eerrr… may I dare to hope in some update or refinement one of these days, ) -
@jackal Thank you for the comparison! After all the whole reason behind this modding is to make the game visually nice. Nobody has to pick a side, I do not mind if somebody combine mine textures with others. I would be more than happy to cooperate with others to create an even larger texture remaster pack.

@vattila11
Well, dear mate… it’s nice to hear that by you, hats off.
One of those who tried to combine your tiles with those Arty’s ones it’s me for sure. Why not gettting the best of two worlds?
I also tried to follow @dema’s advise and making that DXT1 conversion… let’s see what I will be good to do this time, uuhhhh.With best compliments again and regards.

<p>Can you share the folder with .DDS with midmaps please ? </p>
-
After 4.36 released, would you take in consideration to modify your awesome stuff to its current standards?
With best regards.
-
Hi @Jackal. I can take a look into that. Something has changed in the texture filenames?
-
@vattila11
I guess so… but it’s a light suspect, driven from some statements took here and there, you know.Unfortunately I have my PC/ system under upgrade, so I could’t make any comparison between those few theaters upgraded and the former related ones.
Who kows, however, if you can understand something about from the 4.36 changelog?Sorry if I can’t help you more, this time.
With best regards.
-
@Jackal OK, then I need to see the files in the KoreaObj folder if they changed. But I must mention that my upgraded textures are used generally. But if a standalone airport uses own textures, obviously my files do not appear there.
-
@vattila11
Of course. I agree with you on that.Well, so the conclusion is that we have to wait and see what you will be able to understand, I guess.
With best regards.
