About this mod

This mod upscales all the textures in the game for the 1st part (dungeon siege 1) of the Legendary Mod. Basically all the textures of Dungeon Siege 1 were upscaled by x4, and that includes weapons, armor and objects, trees, bushes, vegetation, terrain, textures, enemies etc.
Some textures were changed by me because I thought they'd look bette

So I've always been a huuuuge fan of Dungeon Siege 1&2. The 2nd game has always been one of my favorites, and now even more thanks to the Legendary Mod . For me it's the best way to play it nowadays! However the game is really starting to show its age, and that's why i thought it was time to give something back to it and mod it a little bit! So after learning how the modding software works, it was time to get my hands dirty.

Every Dungeon Siege 1 texture was upscaled by x4 (monsters, armor, weapons, terrain, objects etc)
A few textures were replaced because they looked so awful! The ones that were replaced have the same color palette as the originals.

--------------------------How to install:  -----------------------------------------------------------------
-FOR VERSION 1.2:

First, make sure you create a backup of the original Legendary Mod files! 

Just make a folder inside the directory of the game, call it Backups or something, and copy the original files called " DS1_Mod_Terrain_v1.01.ds2res " and " DS1_Mod_Content_v1.01.ds2res " from the Legendary Mod into the folder you created. 

Now extract the zip file you downloaded and overwrite the files inside the Resources folder. 

DONE! it's installed.

-FOR VERSION 2:

Simply extract the zip file you downloaded and drop all the .ds2res files into the Resources Folder located in your Dungeon Siege 2 folder.
It will ask you if you want to replace old files, click YES.
Done, installed :D Now you have both the new textures and a backup of the old ones!

(Remember to install Legendary Mod first before installing this mod!)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Differences between Version 1.2 and 2:

Version 1.2 mostly uses the old original textures, Version 2 has a few new textures, for examply the Crypt location has all been changed. Check the images uploaded to see if you prefer the new look :)

For Part 2 (Dungeon Siege 2) i have started upscaling the weapons and objects, the armor is already upscaled and so are the monsters! However there is already an upscaled textures mod for the terrain available created by Flutterhate ( https://www.nexusmods.com/dungeonsiegeii/mods/29 ), which also works pretty well!

I will upload the part 2 as well when it is finished!


other recommendations ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I strongly recommend you to enable FXAA antialiasing, MSAA and anisotropic filtering to 16x in your graphics card control panel. Also installing reshade and adding a little bit of contrast and vibrance to the game will make it look nicer!

You should also install the Hotfix mod if you don't have Broken World, or Aranna Legacy if you have Broken World. it adds a lot of content to the game and makes a good game even better!

This mod has been tested by finishing the game from start to finish, no bugs were found! If you do find something please let me know.

Anyway that's it, hope you enjoy it! :D
