Thanks
Bearborg. That shit's really split up, will make it difficult to address. I'll start poking around, though. I'd at least like to try tackling the upper chest and shoulders specifically, along with the helmet. Since those are the areas of detail most closely seen.
But then even on the same suit variant there are duplicate texture files for the same section of the suit, if I'm remembering correctly from when I gave them a quick glance. So that's a little confusing. Or maybe I just got lost.
Thanks for the help. At the moment, I don't really have a plan for how to include user-generated overrides, but for textures we want to exclude entirely, the easiest thing to keep track of for me would be opening a
Github issue since I already maintain a list of ignored textures for each game.
I wouldn't know how to manage that either, and have never used github. I'm basically just straight replacing them in your pack I downloaded to create my own variant.
For the moment I've just been uploading my own personal changes to Gdrive. I wouldn't really consider them ready/finished for any sort of release but you're free to check it out if you're inclined.

On there is the fixed visor you already know about.
Also I touched up the Tallon IV surface (as viewed from the frigate) since I thought the sharpening made the red areas look... awkward.
I smoothed out the beige space effect so it doesn't look as color bandy and experimented with a subtle space cloud pattern.
I went through and smoothed out the weird pattern that happened to Chozo Ruins Skybox, but I would not recommend using these skybox ones yet.
On the topic of the Chozo Skybox, starting from your upscale and then smoothing out the oddities I think did result in a better skybox. Bouncing back and forth from original to our result, the seams even blend together better and color doesn't seem as blocky. With one exception. The only issue is when you look
straight up. Even the original had visible seams here, but they seem to have become more pronounced after what I did (relating to the smoothing).
And for the life of me I can't find which specific textures/edges are the ones I need to address.
I'm away from my main machine right now but for reference (from memory):
A bunch of textures (blue labelled) basically circle around and leave an open hole in the center, and another texture (green) sits behind/above the hole to fill it.
I can't figure out which textures the red labelled edges belong to. I can't seem to match them up with the dds files. I know I'm looking at them I just can't recognize them. Because they're nondescript clouds. Haha
At this point I'm wondering if I'm better off just giving up and sticking with the OG textures.
