Releases / Re: FF7 Crisis Core Upscale Project

Yeah, I saw the seam but there's not much I can do about it. I tried a little bit to fix it before, but it was difficult. I also tried to find a higher-res version of that image but no luck. We can't make everything perfect sadly.
We had a major .ini overhaul recently. If anyone notices Aerith doesn't have her DMW portraits upscaled, please update on Github. eqprog is also going to go through the whole game again to find missing textures.
For some reason, I haven't seen Zakkura in the past few weeks, so I hope they're okay and nothing's bad happened to them.
I've been a bit busy and have had some burnout, but I wanted to post some updates.
I changed Zack's portrait into different art, simply because I like it better and it fits the original more. It also gives me OG FF7 vibes. I think the left tries to portray him more as "so cool" while the right makes him look more "sweet". I think considering the ending of the game, portraying him as "sweet" instead of "cool" makes more sense thematically.
I plan to go into Nibelheim's basement and upres some of the objects there:
I plan on updating all these bottles which got put through the upscaling deep fryer, here's some WIP. I also updated the little monster thing in the top right.
I'm almost done the 2nd Class sword, I'd like to release it before the end of the month:
I'm also working on an optional mod which makes 15-year-old Tifa less sexualized so she has less cleavage and covers her mid-riff, inspired by the "Modest Lulu/Rikku/Yuna" mods I've seen for FF10. This is closer to what she wore in the original FF7 and Last Order. I'm not a prude by any means and I know Tifa is a sex icon by now, but I never liked her sexy cowgirl outfit. For one, she's 15 and Japan's affinity towards rampantly sexualizing teenagers (and even children) in their games/anime makes feel iffy. I also feel it doesn't make sense, Tifa's a tour guide of the town, so I think she'd have more of a serious look. I think people's first reaction to seeing her should be "oh hey, it's Tifa" rather than "wow, that's a sexy girl". I like to think most people know better nowadays how to portray minors than they did in 2007.
I know some people don't like censorship so this mod is optional, and the FF7 Remake decides to double down with Crisis Core. This mod is just for those who prefer Cute Tifa over Sexy Tifa.
