📋 About This Mod

Ever felt like Baldur's Gate 3's textures are blurry, despite running at maximum settings with forced anisotropic filtering? This massive texture pack is your answer.

After a week of processing using a node-based upscaling program called chaiNNer, the mod is finally ready for release! It upscales textures 4x, so a 1K texture becomes 4K, and so on. For those who want high resolution textures that adhere to the vanilla vision, or a pack to serve as a foundation for custom-made textures, this will work wonders. As there is already a great mod to replace armour and clothes, I have skipped them for this release but may pursue them at a later date.

For a truly transformative Baldur's Gate 3 experience, I suggest installing these mods in this order:

  • []BG3 Texture Upscale Project (this mod)

    []Upscaled Armour and Clothes Textures (about to be updated for later versions of BG3)

  • Vivid Landscapes - HD Ground and Terrain Textures

    To install BG3 Texture Upscale Project, place the Generated folder inside your Baldur's Gate 3 Data directory.

    Performance: with an upper-mid range system (mine is a 5800X, RTX 3080 10GB playing at 1440p using DLAA) you shouldn't notice a difference.

    To upscale textures yourself, you can get chaiNNer here and download upscaling models here.

    Feel free to use the files from this mod in any way you see fit - it is intended as a resource too.

    I have retired from modding so please do not contact me.
