Rebirth Flame: Remastered v2.0 by MCINDUS
This is a character mod for FF8 Remastered Steam version!!

For use only with the PC release of Final Fantasy VIII Remastered (Working on creating a Switch Port)

This mod serves several functions:
The first is to be a full Upscale of the main character battle textures!
The other versions include modified textures for Squall and Rinoa with custom work by myself and includes field model textures to match.
Updated Squall and Rinoa's textures to more closely match the characters we know and love!
Created custom eyes, lips, and matched their coloring to the original 2013 release. (Clothes, hair, etc.)
In the future, once we can update 3d models, I'll be fixing his hair!

Rinoa Preview - made her eyes smaller to match FMV Rinoa, took off her red lipstick, and dropped her neck-line as much as I could without warping/bad UVs

rartart:
thanks :D

Does Squall eyes really that small?


Also the outside part of Rinoa's eyes doesn't match the CG



kinda weird with your curved eyes. And she does wear a light lipstick or a visible pink.
If you can make her nose to be triangle shape instead of vertical (the shadow) that would be nice.

Mcindus:
In almost all instances of seeing squall, his eyes are much narrower than what the Remaster made available. I didn't really make them smaller, just more narrow. I think I should add a little bit of the lower eyelids back into his image (which will fix some of the proportion) so that it looks more like his FMV, and bring his eyebrows down a few pixels. The image you posted is literally the largest/widest you ever see his eyes aside from the single tear moment at the end of the game, so I'd rather not use that as my main reference model.

As far as Rinoa is concerned, I used the same eyes they had, and simply lowered their size.  Her eyes are actually curved in MANY scenes, so I used the Remaster eyes to test and see if they would work. They look good, but I feel like angling them a little bit so they don't curve as much is a good idea. I might even simply just copy/paste her FMV eyes in and go for that look. I think she needs a bit thicker eyelashes on the outer edge of her eyes, and the remaster texture doesn't give me much to work with.
I didn't remove all of her lipstick, just made it not bright red and more of a nude color (aside from her ballroom texture, which has the red lipstick). I might want to make it a bit maroon if I change it to anything.
