Please view my initial post, the scope of this project has altered dramatically.

Graphical / Immersion - A Video Reconstruction Project

« on: 2012-10-03 19:53:34 »

THE GODS HAVE SPOKEN (in a passive-aggressive tone).

This is no longer a video restoration project, it is now something far more bizarre.

It was clear within minutes of my attempts to clean up the original cutscenes that very, very little could be done that wouldn't either destroy vital image details or ultimately rob them - via noise removal and various magic spells - of their unique, if overly compressed nature.

So I'm going to reconstruct the cutscenes polygon by polygon, dodgy camera movement by dodgy camera movement.

Oh no, what have I got myself in for...

High definition reconstructions that are shot for shot duplicates, so no fancy lighting, atmospheric effects, more organic character animation etc...

These will be true to the 1996 originals we've all grown to love and squint at.

Hello all, I have a rather peculiar query to ask...

Are the 2012 FMV's re-encodes of the PS1 FMV's or encoded from the 1996 uncompressed master files?

Any light shed on this matter would be of great assistance.
