Let the driver worry about that. Upscaling and/or super sampling will work in the EQClient, which will negate aliasing in motion.

You should do the further higher resolution after you finish the base models first.

I dug this up.

This should do it, though it's probably not the cleanest method. Tests alright on my computer.

Code:

for /F "tokens=*" %P in ('dir /b /s myfile.txt') do copy /Y .\myfile.txt "%P"

If you're running it from a bat file use %%P instead of %P.

EDIT: I corrected the command to work with file paths that have spaces (notice the quotes around the last parameter). Also when running the command you'll always get this error:

Code:

The file cannot be copied onto itself.

.
Just ignore that, because it doesn't hurt anything

Here's a batch file version that I called subupdate.bat:

Code:

@echo off

if "%1"=="" GOTO End

for /F "tokens=*" %%P in ('dir /b /s %1') do copy /Y .\%1 "%%P"

:End

Then you can invoke it as such:

Code:

C:\root_dir_for_changes\subupdate.bat my_file_to_update.txt

The file cannot be copied onto itself.

        0 file(s) copied.

        1 file(s) copied.

        1 file(s) copied.

        1 file(s) copied.

For a BAT file:

Q: Where do you input the file name? For instance, what would the code look like if the file you wanted to copy/replace was named "test.xml"?

A: If you're running it from the command prompt then CD into the root directory containing the most recent "test.xml". Then run the following command:

Code:

for /F "tokens=*" %P in ('dir /b /s test.xml') do copy /Y .\test.xml "%P"

If you're running it from a bat file then the bat file should contain:

Code:

for /F "tokens=*" %%P in ('dir /b /s test.xml') do copy /Y .\test.xml "%%P"

If you're using my subupdate.bat described in my first post then CD into the root directory containing the most recent "test.xml". Then run the following command:

Code:

Code:

subupdate.bat test.xml

Bat file is the easiest to set up, let me know if you need help with that.

Love my dark elf classic muddy textures, but I would definitely use this. Good job guys

This still happening? Let me know, I would like to help if that helps motivate this.

How does this script work exactly?

The major problem I ran into in EQ is that the sizes of certain things are unpredictable, and certain textures are horribly stretched out.

For example the area around the tunnel uses a different texture, where the sand meets the stone.

If you'll notice in the unmodded version the pixels are enormous. That's because the area it covers is approximately 4-8 times larger than the texture provided to it. Trees are the same.

I think I'll get back onto this, if anybody else wants to help, send me a PM and we can Skype chat. I don't really play much anymore, but I really like modding and I'm currently taking a break from Skyrim mods.
