Description
v1.0 03/05/2009 Mount & Blade HD (High Definition) is complete overhaul of the game visuals. Almost all texture files have been optimized and improved to work better with models used. Due to way game textures were made and employed files had to be made considerably larger thus some older machines and video cards might have problem with this new upsized textures. This is very unfortunate as these new textures really make game look so much better. What has been changed and improved? Almost everything! That was not my original intention but as one thing led to another it has happened. ![]() ![]() Some things have been changed considerably as I did not like them or because they were not fit for my purposes. Try it and see for yourself if these changes work for you as much as they do for me. Beside texture files I have included one CommonRes / materials file which corrects use of map-river texture. In game map is now much more enjoyable place to be / use as all terrains, trees, architecture and animated icons have new improved HD finish. Installation: Extract or copy/paste all files included into your MountnBlade game folder. When you are asked to overwrite files under CommonRes and Textures, select 'yes to all'. I would recommend you to make backup copy of your existing Texture folder if you want to revert to it for whatever reason. Pick and mix of texture files is not recommended as MnB texture canvases carry multi textures so it is very unlikely that you can achieve mix you might want. Another thing to keep eye on is what you are installing as last game texture installed overwrites any previous one. Brand new textures are not problem but standard game ones I am replacing are. As standard game gamma settings are horrible and unreachable I would recommend you to try Vorontsov Boris HDR as it gives you ability to change level of in game light. This little app works in game fine but do expect benign error when shutting / exiting game. It works treat for me as I hate overly dark game atmospherics. Note: There should not be any more problems with download but same files can be found as well at: http://rapidshare.com/files/22885582/Dalls_MountnBlade_HD_PartOne.7z http://rapidshare.com/files/228838176/Dalls_MountnBlade_HD_PartTwo.7z If wondering what this mod actually does find files with some informative screenshots at: http://rapidshare.com/files/229651886/SCREENSHOTS.7z http://rapidshare.com/files/230613430/SCREENSHOTSNew.7z If you are using MountnBlade v1.011 you will have problem with my Textures/font.dds file. Use your original one instead. All other files should be OK regardless of version you are using. Might be or not obvious but you need to have / install both mod parts. There is new update v1.1. Note on Dalls_MnB_HD_Updv1.1: Update only you need part one and two as well. Install last! This update file can be found at this site as well as at: http://rapidshare.com/files/231282954/Dalls_MnB_HD_Updv11.7z Use: These files are free to use but are not free modders resource! Contact me for permission but usually only due credit is expected. Enjoy! ![]() Credits: Special thanks to Thorgrim for his brilliant BRFedit utility. Without it making of this overhaul would be almost impossible. Features
