Is it possible to retexture games on other consoles.

[Datadayne]

I was just wondering if it was possible to retexture other games from other systemes, like retexturing psx or snes nes dc games. If its possible to retexture n64 games, then why wouldnt it be possible to retexture snes or nes.

And how would it work, like is it possible to use the rice video plugin on different systeme emu's.

I think it would be pretty cool if you could retexture NES games. PSX games would be pretty hard though, as the way the data gets fed to the machine is pretty messy.

 

[Datadayne]

Yeah it would be cool to see. Maybe someday.

You can use TEXMOD for Chankast and maybe other emulators too, i haven't tested, i don't think it will be hi res though, just replaced.

It can be found here, no idea if there's an official site: http://www.tombraiderhub.com/tr7/modding/index.html

It's possible to retexture old 3Dfx dos games via Glidos.

Thanks mongo21983

That's pretty cool, but it's still at the same resolution/color palette limitations of the original.

And the graphics are complicated to edit.

Pete Bernert said PSX retexturing like Rice's plugin cannot work due to the way the console renders 3D. Of course, romhacking may be a way to change textures in PSX games, but requires a lot of expertise.

However, for other consoles more advanced than an N64, it may be possible in a similar way to Rice's plugin.

MVS/AES from SNK could be a good candidate... at least; all the hacks around the web suggest that is possible.

SALUDOS! :sombrero:

From technical side it's piece of cake, but if you want to do this you need to be at least as good as SNK artist(s) who did original graphics. It's much more complicated than working with small and primitive textures in 3D games.

Yeah, i remember that thread....
