Ok, this is going to be the last upload for a couple of weeks. Been working on this one for quite some time.

I'll get to work on new stuff once I'm back :)

New Packs

Medal of Honor

PS2
007 From Russia With Love
Ape Escape 2

As I said before, the next week is going to be very busy, then I'm going on honeymoon. I'll carry on once I'm back. I am busy with the requests everyone sent :)

Delay

Hey everyone, I'm going to try an upload a few packs this week before the whole wedding and honeymoon.

Some bad news, there was a break-in at our complex last night, they hit 3 or 4 units, including ours and my laptop (that I got two days ago) was stolen along with some other stuff. I'm just sorting out all the drama.

I'll upload the few packs I managed to finish today or some tim...

Texture Pack List

Hey everyone, here is a link to a list of all my packs. Should've made one sooner, didn't realise how many there are. I'll update it as I add new packs :)

007 Everything or Nothing

This one was quite a challenge, enjoy :)

Sorry for the lack of activity.

Hey everyone, I'm sorry that I haven't been doing as many drops, as I've said, I am so exhausted. Work has been absolutely crazy and in every bit of spare time I have, I'm working on texture packs.

I will have some new stuff this week, but I just wanted to let everyone know, there will be a bit of a slow down for a few weeks. I'm getting married in July, then I'll be away for a week. Onc...

More PS2 Packs

Dead or Alive 2: Hardcore
Tekken Tag Tournament
Time Crisis 2
Time Crisis 3
Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - Double Agent

GTA VCS

So it seems when I did the pack for GTA VCS, many of the textures didn't dump, especially building textures. Now with all the updates, the textures are read.

I got the additional textures (4000+) and I added them to the existing pack, it should now be complete.

If you come across any missing textures in my older packs, please let me know so I can have a look :)

New and Redone Packs

Redone (PS2):
Def Jam Fight for NY (Menus do not dump properly so it's only in-game textures).
Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition Remix

PS2:
ATV Offroad Fury 1 and 2
Splinter Cell Chaos Theory (Special thanks to Javi096 for dumping the textures)

PS1:
Dino Crisis 2 (few backgrounds refuse to load, usually small areas and in some cutscenes)

Apologies for the packs com...

True Crime PS2 / Gamecube

So, someone requested the True Crime games for PS2. I tested it and they don't dump textures properly, I tested the Gamecube version and it's fine.

I attached a before and after shot, should I carry on with the Gamecube versions of these games?

Megaman Legends

Ok so I did Megaman Legends.
Problem: 0ver 80k files, coming in at over 20gb, also lagging a lot and crashing Duckstation.

I nuked it and decided to use a different texture dump method. So I played through the entire game again. Still a lot of files but I got it down to 2.4gb. There are a few textures, especially flickering lights (like in the tutorial dungeon) that don't always load ...

New Pack

Finally done with Dino Crisis 1, thought I'd drop something for the weekend.

Enjoy :)

Now...it's 2am and I'm off to bed.

New and Redone Packs

Added PS2:

Black
Batman Begins
Donald Duck Goin' Quackers

Redid Previous PS2 packs:
All NFS games (except for Pro Street, also fixed the issues with Most Wanted)
GTA 3
Devil May Cry 1 and 3

Gamecube:
Beach Spikers Virtua Volleyball

PS1:
Shipwreckers
Time Crisis
Time Crisis: Project Titan

Quick Update

Seems my original Tekken 5 pack had some missing stuff due to how the game dumped before all the updates to PCSX2.

I got the missing textures, then cleaned up and merged the files. It has been re-uploaded.

Poll

Which would you all like to see me work on more? PS2 still seems very popular but I have gotten a lot of requests for PS1 as well. I've done a lot of Gamecube/Wii packs too.

Nothing will be neglected, I'm just curious to see which is the most popular :)

Re-Uploads

Ok so I've redone Nightmare Creatures and Gex Enter the Gecko for PS1. They look much better now.

I also redid Transformers and Darkwatch,

I am working on new stuff, I just wanted these done before the free access weekend. Darkwatch especially got a massive visual boost, spent a few days on the textures. Transfomers also looks much better, the game is already blurry as it is and I...

Nightmare Creatures Redone

So I redid Nightmare Creatures, it's much more detailed now. Going to tinker with a few other PS1 games.

Feedback

Hey all, I know I said I will be taking a break but with the new tools I got, I'm stuck in the texture pit xD

I've been messing around and I completely redid my Darkwatch pack after redoing Flatout as a test run. So, I would like to know if there are any other packs I made in the past that you would like to see redefined. I don't have dump backups of everything, but I do have a lot of th...

Reupload - Flatout

I redid the Flatout pack, I wasn't happy with it. I used some of the new tools. Gonna let my PC rest a bit, this was brutal. Attached is a before and after.

So, I did a thing

Been messing around with some stuff, see the attached pic to see the result, it's from Dino Crisis 2.

Now....this looks great, I think, BUT doing packs this way is going to take longer, again, BUT, I should be able to use it to refine existing packs, again, BUT, my PC is praying for death doing this. I am going to be testing this to see if I can reliably make packs this way.

New Packs

Ok, so I just want to drop a few packs before I take a short break. I haven't had time to myself for a few weeks now, would like to just play something without the pressure of dumping textures.

PS2:
Gadget Racers
Transformers (Not Transformers: The Game, that one will come later).
Vexx (this was my first time playing it, not sure if I found all the areas, if I missed something, ...

Some new packs

Alright, I uploaded a few new packs.

PS1:
Nightmare Creatures
Spider-Man

PS2:
Flatout
GoDai: Elemental Force

My schedule is a bit hectic with work and stuff so no big drops, but I just wanted to get something out.

Thank you all for your support after all the drama, I really appreciate it \0/

Question

Hey all, first off, I just want to thank everyone for their support this week, I truly appreciate it.

I want to know if you all would like me to create a Chat Community where people can send requests for packs. It will make it easier to track and then add games to my list, as it tends to get lost in post comments.

I will make the chat available to everyone. Let me know if you'd like...

Transparency

So with all the lovely hate mail I've been getting, and someone legit asking OTHER people to buy access and leak my packs (dude can't even do it himself), here is an update. I wanted to wait since I'm still sorting stuff but I want to clear the air and not hide anything.

I'm not going to keep people locked out, I will be doing a free access weekend, probably the last weekend of the month,...

3 New Packs and a Little Rant + Clarification

I wanted to wait until I had more to drop but they're taking longer due to time constraints. As you all probably know, I have to play through games completely to get all the textures, sadly, I cannot extract them. My time is limited at the moment as my fiancé isn't well, she has bipolar and is going through a rough phase right now.

I just thought I'd drop something now that packs are pai...

I'm Sorry but I have to

People have been stealing my packs (and that of other creators) and selling them for $5 PER PACK and claiming they made the packs.

My repo is now available to paid members only, it's still the lowest I can do, and there are no tiers or anything like that. I'm sorry but having my work stolen and then see how this guy makes $1000's really left a sour taste in my mouth.

I will be relea...

New Packs - Duckstation

Added:

Silent Bomber

X-Men Mutant Academy 1 and 2

Note: Mutant Academy 2 has a slight issue with some textures going missing, it's not the HD pack, this happened whilst I was playing the game and it seems to happen no matter what, so it wasn't the texture cache for dumping files that was causing it

Redid Metal Gear Solid.

Fixed a lot of issues with the...
