Character HD Textures Pack

The problem here is that it's AI upscaled, so allot of detail is lost because it's being done by what the AI sees and not what SOMEONE sees, therefore some grit and dirt on female Jaden's boots and the poors on Rosh's face are less detailed/less apparent now. It's okay to use AI, but next time try modifying the textures to keep that original look. So much is lost with only using AI, and that can be seen with the Scarface AI upscale mod and the HL2 AI upscale mod.

Not sure what exactly do you mean. Either removed jpeg artifacts which make all faces look spotted, like they have some problems with blood, or, probably, it's about specularity. Yes, they used raw photos to make textures in q3, and neural net was trained with PBR textures, so it's using albedo map with removed specularity data to add details on upscaled texture. And yes, skin poors aren't so noticeable, because they're not highlighted on texture. But they're still in place after upsamplng. Even more then on original texture.

I haven't played this in like 10 years! I am having a little problem, the character textures seem to have 'shimmering' effect. I am running rend2, PBR, and the Character HD Textures Pack. Anyone know if i need to tweak a setting or something?
