ZDoom

I usually like to play megawads with the PistolStartEnforcer, but since this mod changes the names of the weapons it doesn't work properly. so I fixed that:
pk_PistolStartEnforcer.wad

Upscale 3xBR with a factor of 4 in nearest neighbor, and the hq4x with a factor of 3. Bam. Both are the same size now! :P Of course, but even with the half trick still a little bit over the top with the size. This whole discussion slowly becomes absurd and goes beyond what's reasonable. I just ...

@Immortal Destroyer I'm not a sprite artist, so I don't have the intention to manually rework the sprites. Overall I'm petty satisfied with the automatic result, even if there are some little flaws here and there. If you wanna edit some things and fix artefacts, feel free to do so. You have my ...

Why does the rightmost look like an upscaled 3xbr instead of a 4xbr? well, because it is 3xBR. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/63152810/headscales.png Now that's more like it. not really. I guess you used the tool ImageResizer for that. a few things are wrong with that comparison. first thing ...

I forgot to tell about this mod; Awesome work. I don't think it's pretty needed in OpenGL users, just use HQ4X and the sprites will look absolutely the same. just wanna add that I cannot agree with that statement. the edge interpolation of xBR is definitely superior and the difference to hq4x is ...

yeah I know that you're a big fan of the mod ^^ but I feel this thread is enough, don't wanna create seperate threads for every package. but I'll change the thread title to reflect the new pack and probably gonna add another screenshot. any suggestion which sprite is suitable for representing brutal ...

ok here it is. I tested it in a quick run and it seems ok. here is the load order: doom2.wad (resp. doom.wad) SPRFIX13.wad (resp. D1SPFX13.wad) brutal19.pk3 3xBR_brutal19.pk3 the pack itself already contains the upscaled sprites from doom, so you don't need any other xbr pack. gimme feedback if ...

no problem max. the whole brutal doom package is kinda confusing. there are normal pngs and lmp files and also some which have the same filename but are actually different. check out the two "PUP2B0" and "PUNSA0" files in SPRITES\WEAPONS, are they even used by BD or is it a mistake by mark? on top ...

I have to enlarge pictures too? Oh man, I think at this rate I'll wait (and hope) this gets added as a filter :P nah, the batchfile is doing that for you. just wanted to make sure, but it is weird. the script should prevent this from happening. maybe there is some issue with the transparency colors ...

Wait wat! Slade can actually combine patch graphics listed in a texture and export them as a single graphic? That could be a very useful feature. yeah, it sure can :D slade is just an awesome tool and keeps improving, make sure though you're using the latest version: http://devbuilds.drdteam.org ...

Simply, because you can't. The textures don't exist as graphics. [...] you actually can and it's quite easy. you just have to rip the already combined patches aka textures. which you can easily do with slade. convert'em and put'em into an hires folder like usual, and there you go. @Max Dickings you ...

my guess would be that the problem is caused by transparent pixels with different colors. so if your sprite has too few colors (<= 256) the executable palettises it and by that only considers one of the transparency colors, since this format doesn't allow more than one entry set to transparent ...

Are there any other command line options for the tool other than infile/outfile? The reason I ask is that I would like to stop it optimising images to paletted ones. I have a couple of examples where it makes some mistakes and wrongly identifies certain pixels as background areas. no not to my ...

yeah it doesn't work this way. you need the original files for the meta informations. just throw your upscaled sprites in a folder called "hires" (subdirectories are possible) inside of a pk3 file and load this after the wad/pk3 with the original unscaled sprites.

of course you could. the whole brutal doom pack with all its files just looks super confusing.
so this gotta be a mess to do this. but feel free to try. I suggest you use the batch I posted.
