[Solved] [Night Skybox] From "ugly" to "beautiful"

Post by Tormentor667 »

As some of you may have already noticed, Blade of Agony uses a lot of assets from Medal of Honor. Unfortunately one of the big downsides of these resources are the bad skyboxes, to be more precise the "Star Night" one:

The main problem with it isn't only the bad resolution but mostly the JPG artifacts as a result from the compression. So what we need here is some kind of a better solution: No artifacts, more details. I am okay with an improved version that is also 512x512 patterns but without the compression loss, but I can also accompany with a 1024 x 1024 variant in case someone is on detail-rage :)

Thanks already for your support friends,
best regards,
Dan

That won‘t fix the artifacts. Better would be an hires replacement
