Description


Features
This addon replaces Nick's original textures with AI-upscaled versions.

Method
Texture and normal maps were upscaled up to 4x their original size to a maximum resolution of 4096x4096 using Real-ESGRAN and the 4x-UltraMix_Restore model.

Credits

Special Thanks
Thank you to the community over at the GameUpscale subreddit and the L4D2 modding community for helping me through the process and making this possible. Also, thank you to Unforeseen Consequences for porting this addon to Garry's Mod. LINK



Disclaimer
It might be hard to spot the difference in my comparison screenshots due to the resolution and compression. Also, since the majority of the survivor textures were already a high resolution, the jump to 4K isn't a drastic difference. That said, the difference is more noticeable in-game when playing at resolutions higher than 1080p.

@Charming p, are you sure the upscaled textures are causing the issue? I just tested it and couldn't reproduce the bug.
