Luckily, I managed to track down Surfaces, Natural Surfaces and Architectural Surfaces, all of which proved to be an invaluable reference material.įinishing this project would have not been possible without any help. As her books were published during 90s and early 2000s, they are quite expensive and not the easiest to find with a CD-ROM attached. I purchased several sets from Marlin Studios and also bought copies of texture reference books from the acclaimed photographer, Judy A. To be able to accomplish this, firstly, I obtained a large library of textures. It has been a long road with many obstacles I had to overcome and I learnt much about working with textures. I have started working on this project in July 2021.
I decided that after the upscaled texture pack I released in August 2020 and a demo version for Tomb Raider 2 HD on pc, the time was ripe for me to try something more advanced and challenging. This texture pack requires Flycast, a Dreamcast emulator, capable of extracting and loading textures externally, which enables anyone to mod Dreamcast games. With the advent of emulators being capable of extracting textures, I finally had the means to upgrade Soul Reaver to higher resolution graphics. However, the graphics quality across the three different published versions have not been consistent and while the Dreamcast version runs at 60fps and has higher poly models for Kain and Raziel, the textures for everything else are actually lower quality than PC or even the PlayStation version. Soul Reaver was a groundbreaking title when it released in 1999 and it is still fondly remembered by many to this date. Stalk the land of Nosgoth like never before!
