How to force highres textures globally?

[IronDuke]

A better solution might be to simply set the min=0.01, which will cause it to extend the highres texture much farther. You’d have to also set the midres texture max to 0.01 and the min to something less than that, and similarly change the lowres texture.

I’m not sure what you mean by “two similar ships” in the setup.lws; I just checked it and it seems to be entirely normal to me.

I’m really interested in how much of an improvement you’re able to make to these textures. 🙂 Think you might be interested in posting some before/after pics?

Very little about the game is not known to me. Any questions you got, throw them at me. 🙂

I tried your values, but the ship disappears. Maybe the Navy Fighter is buggy.
I still prefer a global solution for all objects.

There are two different Navy Fighter ships as textures, the regular one and a smaller single-seater.
They don’t have a midres texture and share the lowres one.

Some of my before/after pics:
The Corvette has a new tail texture from a top view picture, maybe I add more new textures to the Corvette.

If I may, how did you do this? I mean, did you just change a value to use the high-res texture or did you manually add the texture?

The orginal game textures are max. 256×256.
After converting the raw textures with CorelPaintshopPro to png, I use Topaz Gigapixel A.I. to scale them to 1024×1024.
After Topaz Clear A.I. and Adjust A.I., I convert the textures to lbm format and add them to the game.

For comparison, in the red box is the orginal texture:

The result is incredible. Could you upload the textures here with an explanation on how to add them to the game?

On this site is a tuturial:

If I finish my texture mod, I will upload it.

That is indeed impressive…

Would be great to have a replay of the game with your textures done.
