Mod Release Widescreen Improved Spyglasses (POTC Build Version)

[TheBlackKnight]

All,

This is a graphic overhaul mod for POTC Build Mod 14 Beta 3.

It replaces all spyglasses views into high resolution and corrects the aspect ratio for widescreen resolutions.
This is similar for I did for CoAS (Vanilla, GOF, GOF Eras)
A couple of the views are slightly different for the POTC Build Mod, so I matched them.

All FIVE spyglass textures have been added to my PA Downloads - CoAS Mod Dropbox.
The folder is Widescreen Spyglass Mod v1.1 (All), sub-folder POTC Build Mod Version.

These are the file names:
Eye_BadTub.tga.tx
Eye_BestTub.tga.tx
Eye_commonTub.tga.tx
Eye_GoodTub.tga.tx
Telescope.tga.tx

Download size for all five texture files is 106 MB (~22 MB each)
Replace the files under resources/textures folders.
No new game is required.

Cheers!

Now to take a look at this.

Do you have a link to your DropBox somewhere? And perhaps a screenshot of what this looks like?
What aspect ratio are these for?

I'm DEFINITELY going to have to add this to the next Build update!

The photos I uploaded are in the dropbox as well for the original versions, which use the same aspect ratio as the CoAS version. The aspect ratio is 16:9/16:10.

I may be being stupid here, but I haven't yet been able to find your DropBox.

TDKs Dropbox is located in the Download section at the top of the forum.

Here are two screenies I took at night, so it is hard to see, but this is a big improvement over the oval spyglass POTC had. This is with the superior spyglass.

This looks great! I really need to get a working install of New Horizons again...

I hope my intel card with the fix can manage this.
I really need to get a new laptop to lessen graphics issues.

It is confirmed then: I am being stupid.

They're just texture replacements. If your computer can run the game without this change, it should be able to handle this as well.
