  • Most issues reported these days stem from users not enabling their emulators to use the required amount of RAM.
    We also tend not to use the search feature but post our issues within the texture pack release page.
    Failure to load a texture pack should not be posted in the release thread unless you have already patched the emulator.

    If you don't have the resources to use Large/HD texture packs please do not attempt to do so.
    Users should have a minimum amount of System RAM not less then 4GB's.
    If you have less then 4GB's of RAM do not post about how your emulator crashes,
    RAM is dirt cheap so invest some money into your PC.

    I would like to say thanks to squall_leonhart
    for posting this Solution.

Hi everyone.
It is a real pity, that i have not the time - at the moment - to work on my textures.
But i have code this little script. Nothing world-shattered but it saves time and guarantees better workflow.
So have fun, requests and bug report are warmly welcome.

ScaleUp

Description:
Scales up you (dumb)textures to 4x, 8x or 16x of the original size using just a Hotkey.

How to use:
Just record a new Action (set Hotkey) and start the script in Photoshop.
Save the action and use it with the Hotkey you have chosen before, whenever you need.

Features:
1.0
- ScaleUp textures to 4x, 8x or 16x
1.1
- Remember the last chosen scale option
- Now the archive goes with a ReadMe

This script is coded and tested in Adobe Photoshop CS3. So as i wrote above bug report (especially for the other Photoshop versions) is really welcome and wished.

hey hows about adding it to the menu file/scripts/ScaleUp?

hot keys are cool, but it takes longer to find the path
where as a menu under scripts is right there.
just a suggestion

EDIT: nevermind i found that if you ad the file to (Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\Presets\Scripts\ScaleUp1.0)
it works this way

Could you port this to Gimp? If so that would be awesome. I tested it in photoshop and it's pretty nifty, but I prefer Gimp. So if it's your power and you have the time. :) I know gimp handles Photopshops paint brushes but I'm not so sure about scripts

Good work dude, kaizoku roof.

Sorry i do not understand the problem. When you use this script - as i recommend - as a recorded action you only have to set the script ONE Time, then you can open it each time you want, with only pressing a defined button. Is definitive faster then during the PS Dialog. But it is on your own HOW to use it, the record think is just my way/method and recommendation.

And yes, when you put to PS presets you have the script direct in the PS Dialog.

Sorry bro, never used GIMP (i do not really like the GUI) i know that GIMP also support scripts, but witch syntax i have to look. No promises, but maybe in the nearly future.

nevermind. :)


@kaizokuroof

just look at gimp. Sorry no chance for this (at least not from my side).

1. The Syntax is complete different. (To much time needed to get familiar).

2. I do not have time to support version updates for BOTH Gimp and Photoshop.

I am really sorry, but i think this one will available exclusive for Adobe Photoshop Users.

Anyway thanks for the interest. I can comfort you, in nearly versions i planned a batch ScaleUp. so you can scale up your dump textures with Photoshop and then work with the scaled up files in gimp, if you prepare the tool more ;) (an other reason why i think GIMP support is not really necessary.)

@both:
Guys what versions of PS you are using? Script works fine? No problems wit the (G)UI ?


Greetings,
Mr.Wolna

I have CS3 and 4, Yet to test on CS4 but I will give it a whirl soon.

No problems with not porting it to gimp, just food for thought really. I just like Gimp for it's simplicity.

:flowers: sry 4 late reply

say you are working with tiny spirits 64x32 as i am.
i would like to keep them 64x32 so i scale them up to (256x128) edit them and when i am done i scale them back down again.

if you don't want to update your plugin i can understand
however if you decide to update to 1.2
this would be a nice feature.

Doesn't this do the same thing as recording this

image > image size > percent > 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400

and saving it as a hotkey in photoshop?
