FFXI HD Mods

Any update on being able to remove the partical effects "chimneys" from adoulin zones to reduce the lag?

Can anyone make casting and tp moves going off easier to see? would be cool if we could add in the orange aoe circles from ffxiv.

I'm not crying, you're crying.

Amazing. The steps in KRT look unbelievable. For the first time, I got the feeling that KRT was actually a real "tomb". Resident Evil looking steps. Very nice work!

Bump :O

That's not in the scope of this thread.




Awesome Amelila doing Reis; Reis and omen are like the 2 worst zones in the game graphically. The backgrounds are legit N64 graphics that they just tried to cover up with a fog effect

so i'm downloading and installing Amelila's Ru'aun, i got the dats in place, did the reshade but not sure where to put "Copy d3d8.dll, "FFXI - ReShade Preset.ini" and "FFXI - Beautiful Lens FX.ini"" at. i use windower so not really sure as the instructions are for ashita. thanks for any help in and advance ^^

Is the mega download link in the OP up to date with all mods up to today? If not which ones should be downloaded separately from the OP?

Please try and like Amelila’s vids and give a subscribe to help them out, they take a lot of personal time on this project.
(He also plays on a private server so the eschas and reis are just stuff for us he’s doing as a fan service not for his own game)

If you want a desktop app for Waifu2x (rather than the online one) you can use: https://github.com/lltcggie/waifu2x-caffe/releases - It has more options than the site and can do whole folders. Did a 4x HD upgrade on La Theine in just a few seconds, then ran a photoshop macro to Sharpen them all. Get some nice results.

I have. Haven't noticed any FPS drops. But also, my computer's no slouch. The only issue I have currently is in southern san d'oria in front of that one shop. Momentary hitch every time I walk by it. It's a known issue though.

It takes a few hours, but its easy enough to set up your own private server. After set up, you can go anywhere in the game including the new areas. Those areas may not have any mob spawns added, but you can get to the zones and run around them.

I don't think there is any way that Amelila can do the work he's doing without his own server set up. Or at least access to some Private Servers development environment.

The zones load at start when you enter, The stores I tows are separate .dats tho and because the stores are so big causes the hitch.
No real way around it

Curious if there's a quick list of zones Amelila has upgraded. Once I install them, I'd like to make it a point to check each out - considering some zones are infrequently/never visited.

Amelila keeps the link in this video updated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktb0nhkKae4

Anytime I go to do Quetz now in Reisenjima I crash about halfway through with the HD mod from Amelia. This hasn't happened anywhere else and I get the unable to allocate enough memory error. Any ideas on why this is happening?

S & N Gustaberg

If anyone not using these yet was wondering for move of an in game walk thru some of these zones, someone on youtube posted this vid:
(not my vid)

And for interested people, I have made some upgraded texture mod for some of the first HD mod Amelila made (that were less complete that the last ones because Korith Textool was not released so 2k texture was really difficult)

I made West and East Ronfaure, Valkurm and South Sarutabaruta

I have also made a reshade preset including some optional shader like emboss(who add additionnal bump mapping) and indirect lighting who enhanced lighting effect), this preset ask a powerful PC (a 2014/2015 config for a stable 1080/30FPS), but the result is the best I think.

some video I made of the mod

Sarutabaruta (Using my last Preset include in the mod), the video is 720p because of OBS



Ronfaure (using an previous version of my preset)



Valkurm(using an old preset)



I don't have time anymore, but I I found the time, i'll make update for North Sarutabaruta, LaTheine and Rolanberry Field too).

I have also made some face retexture (my hume face need to be remade, it was my first mod and it was average but I think my male Elvaan, my female Taru and my Galka are pretty good) and a guide giving link for the best face retexture to easily mod the face of the character to make the game more HD.
the guide and the mod have been posted in this topic on previous pages

One again when I'll have more time, I'll make another face texture mod (for face who lack good HD texture)

the new Gustaberg mod is just awesome, using with my reshade preset(who don't work with the last version of the shader used by reshade V4 only V3.0), the area is nearly as beautiful as FFXIV V1
