Hi everyone,
I am new here. I am working on a hires pack for Castlevania LOD. I started working on it on 1/8/08. I have never really used Photoshop or anything like it before seriously so this is my first attempt at my own hi-res pack. Let me know what you think.
If you've never made a pack before, I hope this can be an inspiration to you. Never under estimate yourself if you give yourself enough time to learn. I started off knowing NOTHING!
I had only downloaded a few partial SM64 packs (not risio's though his looks great, just haven't yet) and combined them and re-did the little signs in the game in MS Paint (to say I love you to my fiancé who likes SM64) and fixed the butterflies and therefore made a (sort of) complete SM64 pack for myself. Then I decided to hit "dump textures to files" for Castlevania LOD and it's all history from there.
Here are some pics: ....ummm...I get a message "upload errors" "Unable to move/copy file"
Anyone have any tips. These Pics upload fine to other sites. Type: .png Size each: about 500k average.

Edits & Notes:
Play the game on normal difficulty setting! Not easy. Trust me. It's a very lonely game on easy without the enemies!
****Corrections for the read me if you do not have the latest pack:
Edit: (Un-check everything except "Fast Texture") should be under outline item "C. Current Game Options Tab:"
(Do not check "Alternative texture size calculation"). Follow the read me.
You also need to select "speed limit" under the emulation tab in 1964.
Also, in the read me it sais you can use "Frame skip" in the video plugin's "General game options" Tab. Ignore that. You should use 1964's "Automatic Frame skip" under the the "Emulation" Tab in 1964 if you need to. It is much better than the plugin's frame skip.
Credits also have to be added to the read me and will be in the next release.
Happy Downloading!!!
To everyone who has downloaded the pack,
Thank you for all your support and have fun!
Please post your experiences with the pack so far or questions if you are having any problems!!!
