Our Resident Evil 4 HD Texture Mod Attempt

I do not have a record for the same location during the day.

But I'll be recording ... maybe tomorrow ...

I think the water is too low to cause too much ripple.

RE4 UHD lake water texture is wrong...The surface of the ripple is too large. Unnatural

Yes. It's really noticeable in Salazar robot room. That's the worst water in the entire game...
But I'd say it's quite unnoticeable in the lake in comparison.

What's broken in the HD ports:
-Specular effect/water. Maybe I'm wrong but I have the feeling it's all the same issue. Some coordinates are broken in the exe and these effects got messed up
-Bloom effect. Those "lights" you can see through walls and appear and disappear when you move the camera at certain directions
-Intense fire effect: The effect that make the fires and other effects to look more vivid and intense in GC/Wii is now broken and this is the cause some rooms are now more reddish and overexposed in HD ports. by removing that effect you recover the original colours and contrast
-Depth of Field: The DoF effect is similar to the "intense fire effect" (image duplicated and blurred). So... maybe the reason DoF doesn't exist in HD ports is also the reason the other effect is broken... just especulation

Did I miss something? XD

Hello Albert, you missed a few things, i´ll stick only to issues that happens at 30FPS since you guys don´t care about playing at 60FPS.  (By the way, your project keeps getting better and better, it´s really impressive!)

-There´s a small stutter in cutscenes playback if you play at 30FPS , happens everytime the camera angle changes, some people may not notice this at firs sight, but if you used to play the game on Wii/GC, you´ll see it cleary
-Enemy AI ,item drop rate an quick time events have wrong timings on UHD,  i won´t explain it deeply... but a good example is the U-3 boss fight, if you play it on WII/GC you´ll notice he is far more agressive and harder to beat than in  RE4UHD no matter the difficulty level, the quicktime events in this particular fight ,are far easier on RE4UHD too.
-There´s a problem with some animations like when Leon is holding his shotgun,the bones of his hands are out of sync with weapon animation. i´ll post an screenshot example below.
-Some effects are still missing like the wave of blood covering the U3 plaga when it reaches it´s second form.
-And IMO the biggest problem with UHD, the positional audio, UHD don´t have positional audio at all, you can´t tell exactly from where enemies are coming by only hearing their sound.And something that really breaks the immersion, the lack of echoes in tight corridors and caves, RE4 is filled with places like this, audio is a lot more immersive in the original GC/WII game, and thank god it works fine on Dolphin .

Some people may say these are small issues and all.. . but, if we can play the exactly same the game with almost no issues on dolphin, why to play it on steam? like i said before,the only good reason to play the steam version are the 60FPS, and in the future Albert and chris project. But even so..... Dolphin packs a lot of graphical improvements too, that could make the game looks far better than it would ever be on Steam version.

-Here´s an screenshot from UHD showing the problem with  Leon shotgun animation,(pay attention to his hand):





And here´s a small sample of the missing blood effect on U3 boss



I could post more screens or videos of other issues with RE4 UHD , but i´m lazy....and honestly, i don´t even know why i care about it, XD

Sorry Darksamus, i forgot to quote  Albert about the water issues,i was talking to him, my bad.

I don't think so.
The person that come up with the lfs > pack converter didn't bother to make it work in reverse.
Pity, because it would stop a tonne of stress for all mods.
