Hey sorry if it's been answered but is there a mod like this for ME1 and/or 2? I found this: http://social.biowar...index/5314761/1

But it's only for characters, and I know some maps that could use a similar treatment.

Unfortunately, I don't know of any texture mods that also update the maps. And further unfortunately, there has yet to be an easy Installer for mods for ME1/2.

Is there anyone else that's run into issues using modmaker / texplorer where the game will start correctly but get stuck indefinitely at load screens?


Not while using Texplorer but the same thing happened to me when trying to replace too many textures directly through Asset Explorer before Texplorer had been created.

Perhaps it's an asset explorer issue then, since I did replace one set of textures using that...

Figured I would post here...possible bug report?

Hey Salt,

Installed V1 of your ME3 HR Project tool. No problems. Saw you had a V2 of that program with newer Texture packs on your mediashare site and downloaded those. Ran the new EXE and it shows 620.2 MB in 16 updates available. When I start it...it finishes in a second with the following in the log:

"Searching cooked folder for updates...
No updates found. PCConsoleTOC.bin not saved
Finished with 0 errors"

Running Win 7 x64 with default Origin directory for the game.

You need to uninstall the V1. V2 needs is a fresh installation.

Deleted the entire directory where it resided, downloaded it fresh, still same issue.  Thanks for helping, though!

Do I need to use this update even if it already works for me ? I guess I can just wait until you release a new version with the extra textures, can't I ? Hope it will be soon, already started a new ME3 playthrough ;D

Okay I'm instigating a new feature in this thread, and anyone else can feel free to follow my lead. When I'm talking about ME3Explorer or any of the Texplorers for ME1/2/3 I'll put a header for that section like this:

---------------ME3Explorer Related-----------------
And then write whatever.

---------------ME3 HR Project Related---------------
And this is for discussion on  the mod.

PolBear, that post was about the Texplorer so no you don't need it. Indeed, there isn't even an update for the mod yet. However, some recent news from AmaroK86 means that we should no longer be limited to any size of textures that we want to add. If you have a look at this post AmaroK's cracked the TOC.bin structure and we can now add new files to it. Hence we can add all the tfcs we want for a theoretically unlimited amount of textures. Nice work AK.

Getting an indefinite load screen is the same as the game crashing, there's something wrong with one of the files. If you tried to mod one of the BIOG* files with the Asset Explorer then that could be the problem. For whatever reason the default PCC saving crashes the game with at least those files. Since the Texplorer is different it doesn't seem to share that problem. Of course that might not be the only issue but it's one possible explanation.

Yeah that's because there's not a new installer for it yet. Plus those were a working copy of the new textures, which are still to be revised. The reason it's been a bit slow coming is that I was having trouble getting the new pack to install. Eventually I realised that it was because the Citadel DLC is overriding some of the Normandy interior. Now that I've got that figured out I'll finish up with the installer.

 Saltisgood, do we have to re add the textures with the new version of Texplorer for the new cache thing to work?
I tried adding textures again and unfortunately I ran into the same problem :(

Hello, I would first like to apologize for my bad english.

I have instaled MK2, now if I want to start the switcher, the program requires an info file. According to the instructions it should be in the installer folder, but there is no info file.
How can I now use the switcher?

The problem took care of itself, had to repeat the installation as an administrator.

Hi saltisgood. Is there any progress bar on the next version of High-Resolution Project which includes more mods? Is it like |---------------x-----------------------| or maybe like |-------------------------x-----| ? :D

Salt! Didact found another issue with the double-naming trying to replace the Armax set with my texmod for both genders :x
Eagerly awaiting that fix, but I have patience! Truly I do! Don't looks at me like that =o *hides*

My eye just spotted you already sorted this on the ME3Explorer forums =o We shall have looks and there shall be cookies. Thanks you!

-------------ME3Explorer Related--------------
@Ottemis: Indeed I have. At least I hope that I have. For anyone reading who's completely in the dark, over the last few days I've been working on some improvements to ME3Explorer. Sourceforge has got all these changes plus WV's ME3OTH tool (modding the game in memory as its running) included in the new download file.

The main changes are significant bug fixes for modding in ME1 and a Mod Maker for ME1 (create/ share/ install mods just as easily as for ME3). But the one that Ottemis is referring to is a change to the Texplorers' (ME1 and ME3) tree construction logic. The program will now not count exclusively on texture names to identify identical textures. This means you're free to modify textures that might share names between genders or some other similarity. You will have to be a bit more cautious when scanning the files though. Full details are here.

These updates also mark the first time we're using the new SVN address. Sourceforge saw fit to move our code repository and so if you want more SVN updates you'll have to do a new checkout with the following address: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/me3explorer/code/

-----------ME3 HR Project Related--------------
@PolBear: Haha. You should never trust a release date estimation from me because they're always wrong! The problem is that I've been quite busy lately and this mod takes a long time to test. I've gone through stacks of rewrites to fix various problems that crop up and multi-threading it has been proving troublesome. On the whole I think I'm nearing the end but if experience has taught me anything it's that that doesn't mean a thing.
:devil:

Can the installer be used on ME2 and ME1? I downloaded a HUGE wad tarball (800+MB) of almost complete ME1 hi-res textures and dread trying to start the game via Texmod. It would probably take a full day to get to the start.

No.
If your pc is unable to run the amount of textures you have downloaded you will have to pick and choose what you run via Texmod or install them manually using the ME1 Texplorer.

This Jack texture by TDS and Church (using Jean-Luc's skin/tattoos) would probably be a good inclusion, given its size.

Apparently reducing the maps hurts the tattoo quality a lot.

I have a question, i modded ME2 but i think it doesn't work. How can i do to force the games to use 4k textures ?

Maybe a tweak in the .ini file ?


EDIT : It's okay, i found the problem.

Hey everyone. I've been trying to add the environment to reduce load time (horrifyingly frustrating and time consuming). I've noticed however, that few things seem to be edited. I'll use the Cerberus door for example. I've added it with texplorer, checked that it's actually been added, but its not showing up in game. I've checked firebase white (noveria) and glacier.

I decided to check that the texture I was adding was actually for that door, so I loaded in texmod, and it shows up. So I looked for it in the pcc files with asset explorer and found it in bioa_mpnov_white.pcc at full proper resolution.

I suppose I want to know why it doesn't show up in game, or how to tell which pcc file is used for which levels.


EDIT:  This is for multiplayer only, I haven't checked single player.  And as far as I know, this isn't DLC of any kind. 
EDIT2:  Seems that the only environment textures that work on these maps are the holograms.  May not be limited to these either.  Other environment textures work fine on other maps.
EDIT3:  Also Saltisgood, why do the dds images need mipmaps if texplorer only takes the biggest anyway?
