Hello everyone. This is a new project I'm working on that I've wanted to share with everyone as I make more and more of it.
At first, I wanted to release the full thing when I figured it was done, even before BO7 released. But first, not enough changes were made in time before BO7, but a bit after it released, I just decided: "How about I post this mod, and then you can just play on it as it updates." Anyways, here it is (screenshots were a bit later than soon but I found some time to post them now).Downloads

This mod attempts to make the following improvements:
- Upscaled textures and game/ui elements (including font quality)
- Increased sound effects/quality
- A better experience (refreshed content)
- Making the zombie ambience noises that Stuhlinger hears on Die Rise more bearable
- Slightly more dynamic story elements (like characters being more 'aware')

Plutonium Conflict with Reshade
There is currently an issue with Reshade. It's not destructive, but it makes the installation a bit tedious.
Main Problem:
If a user runs "Plutonium.exe", Plutonium will update, and overwrite the Reshade files that were imported.
What Will It Mean
The Reshade files will practically be deleted, meaning the shaders wouldn't load.
How to Fix
When opening Plutonium.exe, it will obviously replace the files again. But, while the launcher is open, Pin it to the Taskbar.
What Does the Fix Do
When a User opens the pinned launcher, which is most likely named "plutonium-launcher-win32.exe", when opened, they will have access to the launcher without it being forced to check for updates.
Where it is Tedious
Because you open "plutonium-launcher-win32.exe", Plutonium won't check for updates meaning eventually a Plutonium update will occur and you will error when joining an online server for having an incompatible version. You would then have to run "Plutonium.exe" to update, place the Reshade files in the location as mentioned in the installation, and then you'd be up-to-date.
Informational Tip
If you find "plutonium-launcher-win32.exe" to be starting up faster than "Plutonium.exe", it is because "plutonium-launcher-win32.exe" does not first check for updates; "Plutonium.exe" does this.
I will try to find a way to allow Reshade to work while using Plutonium.exe but for now, this is the best I can get you. If you hate this procedure, that is my sorry.
More to come.

BledTekh Will try my best to make fixes to that but what maps are causing the crash?

could be maybe my pc, but i installed everything as you told, and the maps are: all survival maps of origins and origins, idk why happen, i was testing with others map and was okay, only happen with origins in general I'm going to try uploading a new version of this mod that downscales the textures from 2048x to 1024x, something more manageable. Just give me a bit of time.
I will say that I may have to make a couple of arrangements because Origins seems to be a sensitive map when it comes to game modifications
-
New version posted. Hotfix attempt 1.

G0LD3N 4RM referenced this topic on

the fonts being upscaled would be a welcome change.
Yeah I definitely want to change that, similar to how JBleezy fixes it in his Reimagined mod.

DrSkum88 for the fact that now I know some people like Rusty Cage now, I will allow a file that has this song too. Thanks for your feedback!
I wasn't going to lie, I removed the track at first because I thought everyone hated it
