I know that many of you are visiting the OTP forums regulary but probably it will be new for somebody. I'm waiting for this mod for a long time so i was really surprised when i discovered today that a beta was released in the end of March! Yay!
For those who haven't heared about, New Vision is aiming to change the world textures to high quality versions in the similar mentality as SHUTP does it for SShock2. It's beta so it has some known issues but it already looks pretty good. All the respect for DaveW, the man behind it!
Anybody who is interested, (
http://offtopicproductions.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2041) go and check it! Also, you can find some (
http://www.moddb.com/mods/deus-ex-new-vision/images) screenshots on ModDB.
(I didn't find anything about this one on TTLG, but probably i missed something. If that's the case, just delete this thread. However, i think this mod is worthy to add to the 'Let's play Deus Ex mods' thread's first post, even if it's in beta phase. EDIT: i forgot to add the 'beta' to the thread's title, please correct it if possible.)

You can change your own thread's title, you know. I thought for a moment that I'd missed a bigger release, despite there being no new posts in that forum all week...
Also, SHTUP doesn't change world textures; HDTP and SHTUP are equivalents, there's nothing like New Vision for SS2.
The main known issues with this beta are a few transparency issues. The first thing you're likely to notice is that the UNATCO logo (pretty much the first thing you see in training) has a black square background behind it. There are a few other transparency issues, too.
There are also a lot errors in the Deus Ex maps which are much more visible with the high resolution textures, though there's really nothing that can be done about that.

Yeah, sure, sorry for that. I still have some stuff to figure out about forum options and threads.

My bad, you are right about that. But at least the mentality is similar...

... I really have a two-second memory sometimes. :o
So there is, though we've mostly just got monitor textures so far.

Ah, good ol' DaveW. Good riddance you fuck stick.
[edit] Wow, I am editing this 3.5 years later. I am embarrassed am I apologise for this terrible, trolling post that has zero content and only serves to terrible up the forums. Again, sorry folks, this ain't like me and I don't know what my problem was at the time. [/edit]

You're quick on the ball this morning my friend! Time to dust off Deus Ex and give it one proper playthrough before HR.
And remember everyone to check kentie.net for the proper renderers and the Deus Exe fix has also very recently been updated.
