Really pumped to see some activity around here. These tex look gorgeous!
I believe all mavirick and the crew needs is a playthrough of the game with debug on. With all the textures collected from that, it should help them finish. I have done this playthrough with the intent to send it to him. But...it came to about 80GB... And that's without world map textures. Not sure on a proper way to send something that massive. Feels almost easier to mail an external hard drive with all that on it.
Fated, I had
no idea! To be honest I'd been concerned with the filesize as well... when I lost the textures I'd collected it was 20-30gb and I was devastated. With 80gb from a complete playthrough we should be able to generate a really good set of pixels to hash using my new method! At least, it's enough to test out and see what we can do.
Have you tried throwing the textures in an archive (I'd try 7-zip or rar) to see how much space you can save? I have 65GB on my Google Drive, so maybe there's a way I could give you access to that briefly... The HDD-by-mail is actually not a bad option, though depending on where you're mailing it from we could rack up some shipping costs. Any have any other suggestions?
EDIT: You could also split up the archive into separate pieces and use FTP to get it to me. I'd be willing to set up a client and leave my PC running, you could send the pieces at your leisure. It also looks like
MEGA is offering 50GB of storage for free, so you could compress it down to that size or split it into two chunks and switch them out after I download it. off course, this is all assuming you don't have a hard cap on your uploaded data...
