⚡⚡⚡Half-Life 2: Episode Two 4X AI Textures⚡⚡⚡

Description
[ENG] Original textures enlarged four times with neural network Topaz A.I. Gigapixel.
[UA] Оригінальні текстури збільшені у чотири рази за допомогою нейромережі Topaz A.I. Gigapixel.

[ENG]
Attention!
It is recommended to use only the mod for the specific game you are currently playing. For example, if you are currently playing HL2 EP1, then the mods for HL2 and HL2 EP2 should be disabled in the settings, because otherwise some textures may look incorrect. This is due to the peculiarity of the Steam Workshop file structure. Or use the alternative option with manual installation.

The mod has an optional part: Optional map files for ⚡⚡⚡Half-Life 2: Episode Two 4X AI Textures⚡⚡⚡

[UA]
Увага!
Рекомендується використовувати тільки мод для конкретної гри, в яку ви зараз граєте. Наприклад, якщо ви зараз граєте в HL2 EP1, то моди для HL2 і HL2 EP2 повинні бути відключені в налаштуваннях, тому що в іншому випадку деякі текстури можуть виглядати неправильно. Це пов'язано з особливістю файлової структури Steam Workshop. Або використовувати альтернативний варіант із ручною установкою.

Мод має опціональну частину: Optional map files for ⚡⚡⚡Half-Life 2: Episode Two 4X AI Textures⚡⚡⚡

I put the one distributed by gamebanana, but the subtitles aren't appearing

I found that when this mod is disabled for Ep2, only then I solve the issue of the rubble texture repeating in the sky by about 4x4 in front of the portal. It now looks normal without enabling.

I run on 2k (2560 * 1440) HDR monitor with 16:9 aspect ratio

Now the mod has an optional part. See the description.
Jerethi 14 Jan @ 1:54pm 
OK. Thanks so much for taking a look and responding.
deeppurple1968  [author] 14 Jan @ 8:41am 
Ahh, so these textures are already upscaled. I thought you found textures that were left in the original resolution. And with these ones you showed, I can't make them even better, they need to be retextured from scratch.
Jerethi 12 Jan @ 2:24pm 
Okay, here are screenshots. I've tried to include a description of where in the map they are, but let me know if you need the saves too. I think you have to zoom in in order to truly be able to tell whether it's been upscaled or not.

Yes, if there are any suggestions, I can consider them. And preferably screenshots with saves, so that it would be easier to find and work with them
Jerethi 12 Jan @ 9:37am 
Do you think there are still textures in Ep 2 that need to be upscaled? Are you open suggestions and screenshots?
Jerethi 10 Jan @ 4:11pm 
That's great! It's always easy to spot when there's an issue because your mods are so good!!
deeppurple1968  [author] 10 Jan @ 9:49am 
@Jerethi, Thanks for reporting the issue! Yes, I checked and it turned out that for some reason the workshop_dir.vpk file was zero size, apparently it was some kind of glitch in Steam Workshop. I re-uploaded the mod, now Episode 2 works fine again.
