📋 About This Mod

Replaces all gameplay textures with their higher-res cutscene equivalents (while updating some preexisting cutscene textures), as well as a bunch of various texture upgrades\tweaks

LJ already has some pretty solid and quite consistent texture work, but, for some reason, gameplay and cutscene textures are separated into two instead of being one high-quality texture, and some textures somehow slipped past the highest-quality check, so to speak, and this mod is here to fix that!

Sadly, due to the way LJ handles cutscene textures, I couldn't exactly change character_tex_change_table to load the cutscene textures by default, as that would cause errors this time around

This mod is split into two parts to save space and faster download speeds, one for the cutscene textures only, and one for the texture upgrades. Install the cutscene textures first, and then the texture upgrades afterwards, but both work pretty much in tandem, so make sure to have both downloaded and enabled

I also plan to try to keep this mod and the other HD Texture mods I've made supported for a long time, and also to upgrade some of the major and most important substory NPCs besides just Amasawa, but that will take a long time

List of notable improvements:

  • []Yagami's jacket now has the correct AO texture at all times, and all of his misc. outfits use the correct skin textures[/]

    []Kaito (2K face texture instead of the default 1K cutscene face texture, and new face tr texture!)[/]

    []Amasawa (higher poly face and clothing models, and new face tr texture!)[/]

      How to install:

        []Please delete the noise.dds in the dds_hires folder until further notice, it is very much outdated[/]

        []Click save, close the manager, and run the game[/]
