[IV|REL] IV Texture Overhaul

GTA IV Texture Overhaul

 

 

 

GTA IV has some great textures, some photo-realistic textures on buildings and stuff, but sometimes buildings and the environment look too low-res and ugly, which doesn't do good to the game in some places. So I'm asking everyone to get motivated and do a little to contribute in this project. You can do peds, buildings, trees and everything that is textured. Mod it and make it better, increase the resolution, make it sharper, prettier, base it on your own photos. It's the only thing that lacks GTA 4 IMO. ENBSeries is already making the game beautiful, but the textures ruin it.

 

 

I'll add stuff as more as they get created.

Holy sh*t! Will you stop asking everyone to make stuff for you, nobody is going to make the Bloomberg Building if they don't want to, stop asking everyone everywhere to do it.

 

As for the project, it seems like a very good idea, I can't wait to see the outcome of it.

[icelaglace]

@ZBNYNC

Thank you.. I've seen him posting that everywhere too

Okay so I tried to retexture Mallorie.

It worked but not during cutscenes.

Might mean that she's somewhere else than ig_mallorie..

Any clue ?

Those who know do not look sorry I do not know, but I do not know modeling

That is no excuse for you spamming up almost every topic (that I see anyway) with the same request.

There is a pinned Maps Request Topic for a reason, take the hint.

 

I've submitted a report against you for the excessive amounts of spam you just emitted onto the forums.

 

On topic: @ iclaglace: Are you for certain that this mod will look decent and serve a purpose for those who don't use any graphical mods?

It actually looks really good even without graphic mods

GTA IV Texture Overhaul

 

GTA IV has some great textures, some photo-realistic textures about buildings and stuff.

But sometimes buildings or something else on the environment looks too low-res and ugly, which makes the game unfair in some places.

So I'm asking everyone motivated a little to contribute in this project.

Peds,buildings,trees, everything that is textured.

Mod it and make it better, increase the resolution, make it sharper , prettier.

It's the only thing that lacks GTA 4 IMO.

ENBSeries is already making the game beautiful, but textures ruin it.

 

 

BUILDINGS

 

W.I.P

well this is alreddy a lovely boost to the textures

[nkjellman]

This is a great idea. I know that some textures look horable in this game, mostly the people.

I have a few things I want to ask.

1. Are you going to keep all the textures original, but just update the quality or with some or all are you going to make new ones?

2. Are you going to retexture the insides of the cars? Bikes, Boats, and Heli's are fine. (most of them) But the cars are bad for insides.

Yeah, good question mate ..... i have redone the insides of most cars over a year ago... but then i got into enb and things look different now.... so i will be updating that. i had also done a total rebuild of all the engines/car parts/tires textures as well.... but. again. need to redo... they will be done....soon.....

 

as for same textures on buildings and things. i think mostly will be a higher res / redrawn version of originals..... unless the original is already rubbish. then a new tex altogether would be the best option....

 

so. yeah... hope that answers some questions.... peace

 

EDIT - sorry. yes peds will pretty much be just higher res / redrawn textures.. again. unless needed to change....

 

Mostly about adding DETAILS..... not just spamming the sharpen filter.....

i need to know how add texture to a wdr file, because openIV can only view the file, and sperk Iv can only import 512 x 512 ...

[Whyse1]

In OpenIV, click the EDIT mode button...........

i need to know how add texture to a wdr file, because openIV can only view the file, and sperk Iv can only import 512 x 512 ...

So, if you want to replace textures in WDR file, you need lasted OpenIV.

follow this:

1 - Run OpenIV and open archive with WDR file what you want to edit.

2 - Select WDR file then RMC -> "Save content\export"

3 - Select destination folder and Ok.

Go to this folder and replace images. After you done all what you want with images, follow this:

4 - In OpenIV (make sure you are in Edit mode)

5 - Import ODR (You can use Create menu or RMC->Multiply import)

All done

So ive replaced textures, but there is no import options by right-click(im in edit mode). And i cant import anything back. Im using 0.9.2 version. If i try using any other import options, openIV cant see the textures, cause theyre .png.

And yes, im talking about WDR, not WTD.
