Refiltered with ESRGAN videos looks really good, much more clean. The only setback is slightly increased specific noise in noised areas (like top and bottom cyclic noise in Intro). Maybe it could be slightly filtered with Avisynth. In this case, 1080p video will also look much cleaner.
Old videos method was - 320x240 upscaled to 640x480 with nndei. After InterFrame2 15->30fps conversion. After that 640x480 upscaled to 2560x1920 by ESRGAN using manga model. After that downscaling to 1350x1080.
New method - 320x240 filtered with ESRGAN jpeg compression artefacts model. After that 320x240 upscaled to 1280x960 with ESRGAN using manga model. After that InterFrame2 15->30fps conversion. After that downscaling to 640x480 for engine limitations.
For HD 1280x960 will be upscaled with ESRGAN second time. In theory it would be 5120x3840 but my videocard could not upscale from such source (too big resolution). So I need to slightly downscale 1280x960. Maybe to 640x480.

Thank you so much again for this!! Videos are amazing now too!!
Seriously cannot wait for you to do Thief 2!
*Just out of curiosity...if you do eventually ESRGAN Undying, is there any way to crack the Freelook so you can look up and down and all around like a normal FPS? Trying to play it now with only being able to look left and right is almost too annoying to even bother trying to get used to :nono:

Ok, first question. Does anyone had Thief 2 vanilla textures with palettes applied?
Yandros on 31/7/2019 at 14:28
All of the stock T2 textures have palettes, just not a common palette as the T1 textures do.

Just for the record, the messed up character textures and wrong texture of the red flower are still wrong in 1.3. ;)

I already explained the deal with the flower at the start of this page. There's a leftover of EP1 in obj\txt16 that takes precedence over the file at txt. As for the model texture, Farkus wasn't the only one that was messed up; models in Thieve's Guild had that problem, too. I didn't keep playing the game, so who knows if there are more instances of this.

Hi. Thank you for working on this.
Would the texture pack work on vanilla non-Gold Thief?
I should still buy it, though.
