i think SL was up for having dls at different resolutions
The low res textures just cause graphical problems with downscaling, I'm quite positive that something along the order of 90% (a vast majority) of people use the high res ones even if they run the game at 1280x960 or something.

I'd like to think that a resolution close to 1080p would be ideal. I think that'd be... 4.5x the original? 1440x1080

Just make 3 releases:
2x, 3x and 4x, this way no matter what kind of computer you have, you'll be able to run the game perfectly fine.

That is probably overkill. As it is right now the 2 different releases are at 2x and 4x the original res. But with aali's new driver the scaling is supposed to be improved so the different resolutions may be pointless now. Time for someone to experiment (not me, I am busy  :P .)

I have no idea, go look at the changelog for the new driver. Or ask aali. Damn you making me waste my epic post.



BOOBIES

That is all.

Very good indeed.  How long did it take just texturing?

I'm quite impressed, but the high amount of detail and contrast in those textures causes it to feel really busy.

I loveee itttt!!!

Only criticisms:  that vent and the walls seem bland in contrast to the rest of the textures.  I'm not sure if you're going to touch those or not because you said "not much" meaning "some" but I think even a basic texture would go a long ways for the wall.

What is the sign on the door supposed to be?

I don't think those are textured at all yet...

Ah, I was just wondering if he was just going to leave the sheet metal that matte gray.  Well then it looks  :o amazing

Well, I agree with Covarr.
While it is really nice texturing work, it is heavy on the eye, because of the very grainy floor. I guess this should be a little darker and less.. how can I say...well busy, as Covarr said.

Yeah, I thought the same but I kept quiet about it ;D

Backgrounds that are too noisy will bother the player after a while. They may also take attention away from the foreground. Also, I imagine that they take longer to make. :D

This is actually what I dreamed when I started talking about remaking the backgrounds: a community effort.

There is a lot of talent here, guys. Thank you very much for using it towards a goal I have at heart!

Keep it up!
