Messing Around - Semi Realistic Mario 64

[jim0_0]

For now I don't really have any plans on making a texture pack. But I felt like playing around with the rice plugin today so I messed around with Mario 64... I'm probably in the minority of people who think a Super Mario 64 realistic retexture would be pretty cool.

So here's some semi hi-resolution mario. (Couldn't get one of the stupid textures to go hi-res, also, I originally used a normal grass texture but changed it to the green tiles for the hell of it..)

All textures were taken from free texture libraries:

What do ya' think?

Personally I don't like it at all.
Super Mario 64 is one of the worst games to create a realistic pack for. If you want to make a hires texture pack for Super Mario 64 it is going to have to be cartoonish for it to look good.

Like I said, I'm in the minority. I don't think my little attempt at a realistic mario looks too great, but I think it could be done well.

The rocks look great, but the grass looks weird.

Here's one with a more normal looking grass texture.

Good job, looks good for a first attempt, but some of those textures don't match very well. I personally think the game looks great with a Hi-res, realistic look. I've been working on one for some time now. http://www.emutalk.net/showthread.php?t=50213
