[Released] Unreal HD Skins [UT] [227]
Posted: 15 May 2016, 01:10
Developer: Lightning Hunter
Status: RELEASED!
_______________________________________________________________________________
Synopsis:
An Unreal227/UT99 High-resolution skins mutator.
Features:
This mutator replaces those old, blurry Unreal/RTNP skins with detailed, high-res versions. My primary goal with this project was to keep the skins looking as faithful as possible, while removing the obvious outdated "pixelation" of the original skins. In order to achieve this, each skin has been manually reworked. There has been no simple filters or cheesy sharpening techniques used during the skinning process. Each part of every skin has been manually air-brushed and blended. Hundreds of layers were created to apply overlay detail textures, better looking shadows, better highlights, and more. The end result is faithful skins that look almost the same from a distance, but far more detailed up-close. In the case of bigger meshes like the Titan, detail is evident even when viewed from a distance. Most skins have been increased from the original dimensions of 128x128/256x256 to 2048x2048/4096x4096.
The following skins are replaced for Unreal and RTNP:
-All Monsters/ScriptedPawns/Creatures
-All Inventory
-All Decorations (except the Robot)
-All Gibs
-All Projectiles except those with animated textures or special effects
-The Gina Skin by Ahaigh (all other player skins are incomplete at this point)
See the readme file for more credits and installation instructions! I also recommend getting DieHard's S3TC textures, which look great when combined with these Skins.

ALSO TRY THIS: Return To Na Pali: Ultimate Edition v1.1 HD
For those of you who enjoyed RTNP:UE (or haven't played it yet), a new HD version has been released! This version of RTNP:UE replaces all the beta and custom skins with HD counterparts. Playing this in conjunction with UnrealHD will complete the experience! Read more about it at the Moddb page.
