Additional Notes:

- I wanted to create more content for the game, however, setting myself a realistic time limit was an important part of the task. I may continue to add HD textures as time goes on. I also create what i refer to as "MegaMaps". MegaMaps are huge maps (10x normal biggest map size) i created for grinding experience levels and testing custom mods/ texture changes. Unfortunately the mega maps became incompatible with later revisions of the mod so i will have to recreate these again.

- I also planned to release a massive piece of mesh for water and the use of ".prbv1" vertex rendering. I have not created this massive 'flat/ plain mesh' in Milkshape yet, but i have tested additional vertex renders on water plains.

- The mod should contain additional water textures for the use with vertex rendering, but each single mesh will not stitch together

- 1920x1080 video upgrades failed, i think this is because they are shown on Mesh/ therefore the original Videos are "UV Mapped" to a specific mesh.

- For HD videos to work someone will need to remap UV's to the new videos and replace any references.

 

 

Enjoy
