If you want less blurry player skins that work online:

Link doesn't work.

Ooper

Yeah doesn't work for me on this forum either... only when I just created the post.
Guessing it's because it's http download instead of https and browsers are not happy with it.

I see no difference at all..

I've followed the steps in the readme.txt.. but no difference

Ooper

What video renderer?

Ann0ying

Direct 3D 9..

Ooper

I've tested them with Direct3d9 they work.

Double check S3TC settings for direct3d9 by typing preferences in console, -> rendering -> Direcct3D 9 -> UseS3TC=True, if you don't have it on they will look the same. It's an option in most renderers you may have just changed it for the wrong one.

I do have it correctly set...
I also have LODBIAS at 0.. is there something else?

Edit: I guess there's a difference... somehow I was expecting the characters to become more "realistic" and less squared.... but yeah... it's just the texture's.. meaning the details on the skin itself....

Ooper

You didn't just place the zip folder in the Textures folder did you? Instead of placing the .utx files in there directly? You also can't replace the textures while the game is running as well.

i could explain you my IT background .. but no.. I did not just out th zip file there ... and yes I restarted the game as explaing in the readme.

Ooper

A sure way to tell if you've done it correctly is set lodbias to something stupid like 500, map textures will look awful and the players should still look high quality.

They are not already included in the HD texture pack? Is this different?

Ooper

I haven't checked but I guess they could be and that's why annoyed isn't seeing a difference, it's been years since I tried hd world textures and back then they weren't included.
