hello my mates!!! I Have big and great news for all you face makers! I Discovered new way to resize faces, so now(still in alpha phase) dimensions are 512*1024 pixels!!!(old ones are 128*256 pixels)

So we need 10 emails who would like to test new dimensions and post some screenshots.
I preferr some guys as Andy is(Face Makers to test this alpha version of 2GFaces just post your email and i will send you new fsh file that you will opend with EA Graph and import your BMP or JPG (512*1024 pixels 2GFaces) and copy it to your FIFA 2003\data folder!!!

mmm , interesting , but now my FIFA is unistalled

How will the game run with all these graphic improvements? Having high framerates is also important to have decent gaming.

hehe!! Hex editing rules!!!

Thats fantastic news!

so , more big the pic , more quality , no ????

Faces are now HIGH QUALITY and i need few face makers to make some new faces with new dimensions and we will se difference, i allready have Beckham's face, but that's not it. i need great kit maker as Andy or Wolf to make some test faces!

Bye

hello andy, on your way in a minute!

sent to you Andy!

GeForce
[GeForce4]
EA GRAPH and if i make a little bit work you will import it with FR2! Yes

andy, did you finished first test face?

post ingame screens of both high-res and normal-res faces plz.. then we can see the difference..:)

no problem, when Andy finish kit :)

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't this the same if we resize the texture to bigger size, then make the new texture and when we finish resize it again to normal size? I think it's the same...

Hmmm, AGAIN, this cannot be called 2GF!
Wolf wanted to make something similar, but 2GF means SOMETHING MORE than just, a larger face texture, it means something that can really revolutionize the Faces Making, like make faces in Rhino, or something really big..
And this is noot big at all, because I'm pretty sure you used Bolzer's new kits templates to import the enlarged texture, and that's all.. :o
Other than that, 2GF were made by Diego from FIFA Express, so if you really want to realase this patch, change the name mate :)

See ya!

who used name 2GFaces?

TO FEDE:
i made it by myself, i worked with hex, hexediting mate... ;)

maybe call it something else so it won't get confused with 2GF.. like advanced textures faces or Hi Res faces

u could juz use fshtool and TEXT editor to change the dimensions of the fsh file... And yeah the retired face patcher Diego Chapusisi (or something like that, he's been out for a long time, so i don't remember it correctly) did name his invention 2GF, which is for fifa 2002.. 2GF = 2nd generation faces..

yeah, that's right.. my old friend Diego Chiappussi invented 2GF, wich was a complex way of editing the 3D headshapes files (*rav), then Neovico (another old friend) came out with the NeoGF (Neovico Generation Faces) and that was the best thing for the Faces Makers for FIFA 2002... as it allowed them to edit the *rav files with a 3D program (Rhino).
So, please Hrvoje, change the name of your latest creations.

See ya!

and in real time.. juz like the present o-edit.... but better

ok new name is NG Faces 2003 (New Generation of Faces 2003) happy now ?

Very good! When the big kits texture?! ;) :p

edit: Oh! I see the other thread now! :D :) :crazyboy:

Because I thought he used the template that Mike sent us for the kits and just put the face textures on there.. but he told me he did everything by himself on ICQ :)

See ya!

This High quality stuff is all very nice....but I am not too excited about this one. Actually, I am not looking forward to it, to be honest. Because:

1. The face textures are too bad to start with. It would be better to change the .o structures. (but difficult)
2. Memory/frame rate issues.
3. Different version faces, requiring different files, the worst thing about patches is that one is not compatible with the other. I hope this isn't the case. And even if it's compatible, it just gets very confusing (especially for newbies) to have some many different versions of so many things. (e.g. imagine having a few kit formats, adboard formats, face formats......the list goes on.)

Anyway, that's just my opinion. But overall, it's good stuff.:)

Waiting for some screenies tho. ;)

OK let's stop complaining. Any screenshorts of the new larger faces ingame?

hey do GUTI AND PORTILLO FACES

I personally think, it will take too much time making a face texture with that size.

Send it to me here (mathiasaskeland@hotmail.com) and I will try it out for you!:D

Hmmmm, graphical upgrades are always nice, but could affect the gameplay fps. Gameplay is more important.

Nick.

hello Nick!!! Nice to see you, i must say that i tested only Beckham face and it works great without messing FPS ! it is same !

I'm still waiting Andy's first face for NG Faces 2003 ! If he say that everything is ok, i'll relase it today, if he says it doesent look promising, i will keep working on it,or even maby shut down this project!

I think this size tooo big to making faces. So I don't like this size. Try to make more smaller.

I didn't receive anything Hvorje:( I do have my concerns on these new textures. For example its very hard to find large pictures to do the textures so the pics would have to be enlarged thus losing quality, and only a few of us use Brushes to do textures, i.e me and migge..so i don't know if it is such a good idea. Maybe make an intermediate size:) Clear things with Mike and then i will see, i don't want to participate in this project if there is a conflict between Mike and you:)

Where are the ingame screenshots, I can only make up my mind if I see the HQ faces in the game so come on, how hard is it to take ss eh ;) :bob: :bob: lol

CheerS

Right Martin...dont make different resons hrvoje.What we all want is SS and as u say you did Beckham face and it looks gr8 so why not posting SS of face??:confused:

i used Beckham face, i just resized it in Photoshop pal...

what's the point of resizing a normal-res pic? quality is lost, and the final result is more or less the same..
and i don't really like high-res coz' there's a higher risk that the game will crash.. juz like neovico's AT..

Hey Hrvoje!! :D

Good to see you out of the EA forums, lol. :)

L8rs and good to hear that your faces work! :bob:

Nick.

hey nick! check my new thread at EA's forums, please give me your icq# i have to talk to y0u!

Hey Hrvoje post a damn screenshot.

yes!! this is what everybody is waiting for! can we see the improvments?:o ;) :p :)

I think that the faces size shouldn't be raised... :D

This is not right mate..so many days goneby but still no SS.It gives me impression that face doesnt look good ingame.

I think 256*512 is a better Size ;)

It would be nice to see this in action. :)

Nick.
