DS PTDE to DSR Texture Converter

Description:

This tool converts textures from the dsfix hashed format to the TPUP-friendly format.

Intended for easy porting of texture mods from PTDE to DSR.

Drop dsfix textures in a folder, press 'convert', place the output into the Texture Override folder of TPUP, repack.

See 'How to Use' for detailed instructions.

Limitations:

Since texture structuring, used formats, and some other things are different between DSR and DS PTDE there appear some limitations as to what texture mods can be ported directly and what cannot.

Specular maps from PTDE are incompatible with DSR. Half the time, however, it still looks better if you use the 'incompatible'

maps instead of default ones. Due to this, this tool provides an option to either skip or replace Specular maps when converting.

Fonts are also incompatible between PTDE and DSR. This time, replacing them just yields you gibberish letters (see screenshot with Oscar), so they are skipped automatically.

HUD and UI replacers (except button prompt replacers) are fine and are not skipped.

Splash screen replacers are incompatible.

The rest should be fine although I cannot guarantee a 100% accuracy of the conversion since I couldn't have tested every texture in the game.

If you find that something is missing without a reason, tell me and I'll try fixing it in the next update (if it's at all possible).

Examples of some mods ported with this tool can be found in the 'Images' section:

Dragon Heater Shield

CrapHUD - A 0 percent quality User Interface

Albino Giant Crow
