big shmooz Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 krawhitham... I was made to understand in the forums here that portraits for MVP 2005 can't be done in 2X. Yet you did it. You have got to share this info with Hory on how you got it to work. I tested it ingame & the portrait indeed shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jogar84 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I think he resized those cyberfaces to 2x, not the portraits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big shmooz Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 I think he resized those cyberfaces to 2x, not the portraits. Nope, he resized both. I checked it out. If you install it look in your portrait.big with eagraph.exe, you will see the portrait is 2X also. What tipped me off in the first place to look was, that the file refused to show up in irfanview (which does not support to 2x texture). So I made it a point to check it out & sure enough the portrait is done in 2x. Look for yourself. I even put in the attachment Griffey's portrait. You will see it is in 2X.

big shmooz Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 Btw... people should be warned, when installing the Griffey/Larkin portraits & cyberfaces, it will cause the models.big to turn off the "read only" mode even when it is in read only to start off with. So you have to manually go back & put it back to "read only". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krawhitham Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 2x portraits? I released 2x faces must be some other mod you installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big shmooz Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 2x portraits? I released 2x faces must be some other mod you installed Heh heh, cute. http://www.mvpmods.com/index.php?name=Down...details&id=2530 The above is your mod. Your readme also says there is a bonus. I saw the bonus. I even have it showing in a .zip file in an earlier post. The secret is out LOL I applaud you for being able to break the 2x barrier for portraits. Cool.

Zach Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I installed them, but I noticed that the portraits look worse out of game then they did before. Is this a universal occurence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardcoreLegend Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 You have got to share this info with Hory on how you got it to work. That's pretty demanding of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big shmooz Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 That's pretty demanding of you. It's an expression. It is not meant literally. Btw... he & I have been communicating via PM & in fact he has told Hory how. Btw... there is a nice surprise in store for everybody. But the surprise will have to wait. Oh, one more thing, the Yankees are winning 6-1 as we speak, & zito is gone after 3 1/3 innings. He leaves with men on first & second. Go Yankees!

Zach Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 It barely makes the models.big any bigger, the file sizes are about the same as the old ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
