The ruins and couture of Nier: Automata are trying mighty swish in a high-resolution texture pack mod, and with out shedding their character. I have a tendency to not use ‘HD texture packs’, partially as a result of so many are oversharp messes or wildly change the tone and partially as a result of I’ve change into a hoary purist who insists that Quake ought to be performed with out texture smoothing, however this seems to be fairly deece. If you’re the kind of one that’d quite play Platinum’s action-RPG retouched, creator “GPUnity” launched a giant new model yesterday, bringing it rather a lot nearer to carried out. Here, take a look at this authentic/new comparability video.
Like the exceptional Resident Evil 4 HD Project, GPUnity’s pack tries to switch Nier’s blurrier textures with new ones that seem like more-detail variations of the identical floor. Concrete has the identical cracks in the identical locations, the identical rust patterns splatter steel, however there’s extra effective element.
“My goal is to provide a natural restoration to the low-res textures, maintaining the intended look,” GPUnity says.
The added element and distinction does nonetheless make it look distinction however if you happen to don’t thoughts that and desire a comparatively pure but crisper look, this appears ’un.
The newest model features a makeover for 2B. Not within the Fakefactory method. Though I suppose everybody’s fightbot sweetheart is already meant to be the Fakefactory model of a human.
If you’re , head over here for obtain hyperlinks and an set up information. You’ll additionally want Kaldaien’s FAR (Fix Automata Resolution) mod however I’d suggest that anyway to repair the game’s shonky compelled low decision (and assist a little bit with efficiency, if you happen to want that).
It’s irritating when such game has technical issues. Nier: Automata isn’t almost as wonked as Deadly Premonition (one of many different greatest games) however I nonetheless append a point out of FAR to suggestions. It’s nonetheless galling that publishers Square Enix deserted PC updates even earlier than releasing DLC.
Nic Reuben wrote a lovely bit about Nier and humanity final month, by the way in which. Do learn if you happen to haven’t. Me, I lastly broke my rigorously silence to only shout spoiler-y cool things I was sick of keeping quiet about.
A fancier model of 2B can be coming to Soulcalibur VI as DLC.
