In the pic above you can see the old walls with the familiar, grey vertical dither looks and the brand new wall texture at the top. Both of these pics are taken from the 3d level display/preview of KKs tool, so it's the same resolution, geometry and detail the engine outputs in-game.

For those of you with a keen eye, you'll notice that this example not only showcases we can display clean textures in full detail, but also that the resolution we can display them into is NOT your usual 2x2!

Enjoy & happy Easter!

Looks great TSAK!

give us more.. give us more...

Thanks a lot, it looks awesome, my hope in the future is that you get the green light from Romero to port in the engine the Doom I/II series !

That's pretty good, looking forward to see that new graphics in action :-)

Aniway maybe it's the time also for repainting a nicer HUD ?
For example this style from the Doom wad "Back to Saturn" is not bad at all :--)

Wow, just wow.

This game will be mindblowing.

That is around 1000 times nicer than before

Whow!

Tsak · 02 May 2021, 18:02

Here's another one. Both new textures above (crates and walls) are originals, made specifically for the game's engine and it's limitations in mind.

nikosidis · 02 May 2021, 18:35

Love it

Talk about night and day

Looking a lot forward to see this in action! Simply fantastic!

trixster · 02 May 2021, 19:09

Looks amazing

wodan · 02 May 2021, 19:37

Is that at the same frame rates? If so that's truly amazing!

d4rk3lf · 02 May 2021, 19:42

more... MOREEE!!!

Great job again.

Tsak · 02 May 2021, 19:58

And here's an interesting comparison: Alien Breed 3D vs Dread vs Fears. Notice anything unusual with Dread's resolution though?

Oh yes!! This new res/mode is not only 100% cost free but it also seems we might be saving extra RAM in the process (vs the old textures). Now, how crazy is that?

To fall off the chair !!!

Unusual?
You mean like... AB3D is 2x2, and Dread is 1x2 (or 2x1

)?

Fears always had that weird insane narrow camera lens, so I can't compare it to anything.

Anyway, that comparisons shows how awesome it looks.
And being a fan of first Alien Breed 3D (for the atmosphere and gameplay), that says a lot.

-=ARA=- · 02 May 2021, 21:19

Looks totally amazing!

Is there going to be floor and ceiling textures as well?

roondar · 02 May 2021, 21:19

Those textures look extremely good, can't wait for more updates

Mathesar · 02 May 2021, 21:28

Wow, somehow the second example you posted is even more impressive.
The new artwork is so much cleaner. The difference is day and night. I especially like how you did the numbers on the crates. Those numbers are truly 2:1 resolution

Konrad · 02 May 2021, 21:28

Ok, this is too much. Now I need(!) to see it in motion !

ESC · 02 May 2021, 22:16

That's some exciting stuff you're posting there Tsak

Yeah, that's why I can never go back and play that one because of the extremely narrow FOV, it actually makes me physically ill when I try to play that one.

I saw that they re-released it recently but since it's just a straight re-release with no fixes I won't be getting it.

nikosidis · 02 May 2021, 23:18

When I compare the pictures it looks like Dread is in higher resolution?

LongLifeA1200 · 02 May 2021, 23:36

Dread is 2x2 pixels on a 640 x 400 screen (effectively 320 x 200).
Actually, it's a little more complicated than that. The sprites of the player at the front of the screen are 2x2, while the background and objects makes use of vertical stretching at 2x4. Impressive widescreen resolution. Attached below is the images resized to their 1x1 perspective.

AB3D is 4x4 pixels on a 384 x 314 screen (effectively 96 x 79).
Fears is a whopping 6x4 pixels on a 552 x 382 screen and hence the narrow field of view (effectively 92 x 96).

Dread is using more screen space and at twice the detail.

This project is immensely impressive.
