thread was actually very much alive on the other forum. about the devs, i hope they make the jump.I thought this thread died on the other site, glad to see it here
Are the devs here on ERA?
Don't make this mistake, turn back now and play today!Yes to this thread. I'm waiting to play RE4 for the first time once this mod is complete too.
holy shit
As someone who finally beat it my first time last month, I second this. Just a suggestion, of course. The cool part is, it's hard not to see Resi 4's visuals and appreciate how great they were for the time. The seams are obvious with a higher res, but it still manages to look nice overall. Though personally, I recommend playing with classic textures. The "HD" ones make everything feel smeared, in my opinion. Can't wait to revisit this title when this mod is finished!I think everyone who hasn't played RE4 should just go ahead and play it ASAP. When this comes out they can have a first-hand frame of reference, better see the vast improvement and have more appreciation for the work out into this mod.

I've mainly been going to ResetEra over the last few days and I've registered, but I'm waiting for the approval so I can begin posting updates. While in general I'll be active on ResetEra primarily, I think we'll still update the NeoGAF thread for folks getting updates there. On a side note, (from what I can see so far) the folks running ResetEra have done a great job in setting up an improved forum and handling the influx of new users — it's remarkable!
Honestly, I've got to give that to the Black Mesa team.... But this is equally impressive.This is the best fan project ever made. Seriously, what those guys are doing is incredible.

I like Black Mesa, but that is basically a remake of the old game. This HD project sticks incredibly close to the original intended game with amazing attention to detail.
Black Mesa doesn't really do this at all.
I wouldn't worry too much. There have been a ton of updates of the last year, and they've been consistently making good progress. This absolutely does not seem like one of those projects that just ends up stuck. Not sure on release window, I'll have to check their site.Why this awesome project taking so long? Is everything right? Did the maker mention any possible release window?
Looked at this for wayyyyy too long thinking that you need to get a better resolution image of "4" before I realized that was the point lol This whole project looks great!
It takes long because they are going to great lenghts to ensure the best quality and fidelity possible, that's literallyit.Why this awesome project taking so long? Is everything right? Did the maker mention any possible release window?
Ellis, you negotiate million dollar deals for breakfast AND you set this up? Thank you! :-) Anything I need to do for you to pass it over?I hope you guys are okay with me bringing your thread over. I can pass it back over when you get here.
Keep up the amazing work.
Hi everyone! Happy to finally be able to join the thread! :-) Albert has joined as well, so you can expect future updates here.
Seriously how exactly the maker is doing this? Is he in touch with the devs? I know he went to Spain to photograph all the details from the areas but still this is the exact 1:1 game but improved to an orbital level. Even remakes of games tend to be different from orignal games and miss or change and alter some details. Here it is exactly the same. Some instances have blurry text on textures that no one could figure but he was able to discern them. This work is beyond just a pure fan. This is a work of a pro. You can't convince me of the opposite.
Hello!
Thank you!
How did you find it?
It seems it's from a Budhist book written in form of a traditional Chinese poetry and that's why it's written in groups of 4 kanjis.
An approximate translation is:
"A marionette on the shelf is nothing more than a marionette. It looks alive but it is not. Once its thread gets cut off, it falls onto the ground."
So... I'd say is a random text... or you can try to speculate about a hidden meaning. Here's my try (I posted it in our website):
Leon is the marionette
The shelf is the inventory (or the entire game!)
It looks alive but it's just a bunch of "0" and "1"
If we throw the controller pad out of the window (the threads), he will remain unmoving
The enemies will kill him and he will fall onto the ground.
Of course I'm not serious :P Any other thoughts??
It could be a reference to the doll enemies from RE3.5.
On the subject of menu text; I remember seeing what appeared to be some Japanese characters on one of the Mercenaries menu backgrounds in the UHD port that I don't remember from the Gamecube release. Do you have any idea what it says?

Glad to see you guys have made it over :)Ellis, you negotiate million dollar deals for breakfast AND you set this up? Thank you! :-) Anything I need to do for you to pass it over?
Might be easier to just let a mod close this thread and link to a new one. The OP there could include the recent updates of this thread.Glad to see you guys have made it over :)
I'll contact a mod and find out how I can pass it over.
