Higher resolution textures from other platforms?

Open wp9015362 opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

Hello,

in the comments over there:

http://phoboslab.org/log/2015/04/reverse-engineering-wipeout-psx

someone seems to have mentioned that some other platforms apparently might have some higher resolution textures, see for example:

http://phoboslab.org/log/2015/04/reverse-engineering-wipeout-psx#comment48 http://phoboslab.org/log/2015/04/reverse-engineering-wipeout-psx#comment50 http://phoboslab.org/log/2015/04/reverse-engineering-wipeout-psx#comment51

So, if that should really be the case, would there be any chance you could use those higher resolution textures in the viewer instead?

Regards

I opened one NRACE06 in Lo and Hi resolutions and the file was the same (filesize and resolution)

There are low res textures in the archives and high res textures as TGAs on the PC. I can't remember my notes anymore but IIRC the game checks if you're running 320x240 and uses the low res textures or the high res ones if you're 640x480 or higher. I'll have to peep my Evernote later. On Dec 23, 2015 5:07 AM, "Matt Sephton" [email protected] wrote:
