4K HD Upscaled Textures

4K HD UPSCALED TEXTURES (DX11)

This version of the mod is for the pre-Ray Tracing version of the game.  The RT version of the mod is available HERE.

DESCRIPTION

This mod retextures 1,497 vanilla 1K and 2K textures with AI upscaled 4K textures.  Vanilla 4K textures are untouched.  Wood, metal, and stone textures were AI upscaled and select paintings were replaced with high resolution imagery.  Textures with very fine detail i.e. cloth, photographs, text, etc. remain untouched to prevent the game from having a "muddy" look.  Some of these upscaled textures may look nearly identical to the originals with only subtle differences, but wood in particular should look much nicer up close.

I have included a FULL and LITE version of the mod.  The FULL version upscales most 1K & 2K textures to 4K.  The LITE version upscales only 1K textures to 4K.  This still gives a noticeable upgrade to the vanilla textures and may perform better for systems with limited VRAM.  If using Praydog's VR mod, the LITE version of this mod is recommended for low to mid range GPUs as it is optimized for performance.  It is recommended to NOT supersample RE7 in Steam VR, Virtual Desktop, the Oculus app, etc. when using the FULL version of this texture mod in VR with low to mid range GPUs or the game may crash.

I have provided two different methods for installing the texture mod.  You can install the textures as a regular mod using Fluffy Manager, or you can install the textures as standalone PAK files which do not require a mod manager.  See below for detailed instructions.

INSTALLATION (Using Fluffy Manager)

1.  Download the FULL or LITE version of the mod from Google Drive. (Choose only one)

2.  Install the latest version of Fluffy Manager from fluffyquack.com.

3.  Launch Fluffy Manager and select "Resident Evil 7" under "Choose game" if it is not already selected.  Then select "Re-read game archives".

4.  Drag and drop the RAR file into Fluffy Manager.

5.  Select "Refresh mod list".

6.  Tick this mod to enable it.

(Once the mod has been installed, RE7 can be launched directly from Steam.)
