Widescreenfix v16-05-2020 by ThirteenAG, Ĭredits to everyone that made this fix possible for their effords to keep Max Payne alive.Ultimate Soundpatch v1.12 by me, Darkje,.High resolution textures and executable with fix for addressing 4GB of memory, needed by high res textures.This pack contains a number of fixes for the game that can be installed selectively. Those interested can download the pack from here, and below you can find some comparison screenshots between the AI-enhanced and the vanilla textures.The purpose of this Fix Pack is to try and and correct the many known issues with this game in a single install. The new textures have increased resolution from 2X to 8X and this pack also includes textures for decals, blood, clothing and for some parts of the UI.

Now while Gaiver74 used ESRGAN, he also combined the newly improved textures with some hand-made textures. In my opinion, this is the best thing that ESRGAN brings to the table as modders won’t have to find and replace the textures of older games with new ones that can literally destroy their artistic style.Ĭreated by modder ‘Gaiver74’, this HD Texture Pack for Max Payne enhances a few thousand (~95%) of game textures. Since this Texture Pack uses the AI upscaling technique, all of the improved textures retain the aesthetics of their original textures.

By doing it over several passes with the goal of fooling its adverserial part, it will usually produce an image with more fidelity and realism than past methods. So far we’ve seen modders using ESRGAN to enhance and improve the textures of Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Doom and Morrowind, and today I’m happy to report that a new HD Texture Pack has been released for the first Max Payne game.ĮSRGAN, also known as Enhanced Super Resolution Generative Adverserial Networks, is an upscaling method that takes an low-res image and adds realistic details to it. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again ESRGAN is a new godsend AI technique that can significantly improve the textures of older titles.
