New screenshots have been released for the Resident Evil 4 HD Project, a modding project which aims to improve the game's visual quality on PC.
The new screenshots, which can be checked out below, showcase improvements that have been made to several character models such as Leon, Ada, Male Ganados and others.
It’s time to show all the work I’ve done on Leon, Ada’s textures and models, and the male ganados’ textures. Well… the Spy Ada costume and tactical vest for Leon are also ready, but this post is way too long… So, I’ll save them for another occasion.
What I’ve done:
Re-created textures (Ganado textures are based on Cris’ work. As you know, some of them were already included in the last release pack)
Rounder fingertips during cutscenes
Real eye shine
Rounder shoulders, sleeve, and flashlight for Leon (the non-coat version)
Leon’s shoulder holster (left band) doesn’t clip anymore through his shirt
Hi-poly heads for Leon and Ada
Hi-poly arms, hands, neck and other details for Ada
Restored Ada’s dress physics
Ada’s dress and ribbon are now dual-sided (they were transparent when seen from the opposide side; see pictures LAGC_34.jpg LAGC_36.jpg LAGC_36.jpg)
And days and days of normals adjustments for vertices and bone weight corrections X((((
