Resident Evil 4 HD Project - Progress Thread

Looks fantastic. Have any original RE4 devs commented on the project, or have an online presence? It would be interesting to see what they think of it.
 
Would you be able to use the Wii mote controls with the PC version, really liked that control method hence why i still think the Wii version is probably the best version of the game!

The PC port does have true mouse aiming, and it's basically as precise as the pointer controls in the Wii port. I think you'd be satisfied if you gave them a shot.

Yeah, the only difference is that you can't "pre-aim", but the mouse aim works really well if you disable acceleration in the settings.
 
Guys I can only quote a classic on your behalf:
We've had to endure much, you and I, but soon there will be order again, a new age. Aquinas spoke of the mythical City on the Hill. Soon that city will be a reality, and we will be crowned its kings. Or better than kings. Gods.
It fits you well.

I just went back to page one. This kind of negativity is hilarious in hindsight.

This is a waste of time OP. Work on game projects that way your work will mean something and can lead to something. This type of thing won't lead to anything. Go to tigsource or a similar site and look to contribute to projects. You have some ability, don't waste it on this because it won't mean anything. Anyone that tries to encourage him to waste time on this can fuck off and go waste their time doing this.

Fucking LOL. This is one of the best modding projects ive ever seen.
 
Shit it is beautiful! Masterful job guys! I am more whan willing to wait for this project to be complete before I start my next playthrough which is long overdue!
 
I played through RE4 for the first time last year with the Village section last year and I'll definitely replay it again once the Castle section is released. I'll definitely be donating as well!

I feel like the curtains should be wrinklier to match the original image, but then again those "wrinkles" might just be a byproduct of low resolution textures and not intended. I would prefer a more gritty and decrepit look here and in a few other instances, but I also think the smoother look is justifiable.

In any case, this is still shaping up to be the best visual mod ever made. Incredible work.
 
I remember the first page when it was new and Cris and Albert first started, with all the people trolling and saying it was a waste of time. LOL yeah right. This is seriously one of the best remasters I have ever seen, fanmade or professional.

I really, REALLY hope Capcom gets on the phone with you guys when it's all done and officially implements this. They would be fools not to.

Hey, I agree! This is on my list of things to go back to as time allows. It's too neat. :)
 
Any chance of an early release of the Castle section? I'm playing the game with my girlfriend for the first time this weekend, and the village section looks so good that I don't want to progress to the castle without your textures!

I'm sorry, but no. Albert will be working on "finishing touches" until shortly before the date. :-( :-( I hope she enjoys the game!!
 
This just gets better and better with every update, and that trailer was great. I've played and beaten RE4 on almost every platform it's available on numerous times and I can't wait to do it all again with the fidelity this mod will give it. Keep up the great work!
 
Wow wonderful! Just amazing .. I have only played 10 minutes of this game since it came out. I'm going to be in for a treat.. thank you guys.
 
Hi Everyone! This is an update to this post from late November where I indicated that my job was being eliminated and that I needed to figure out employment for my family.

I’m finally at a point where I know how things will proceed. Here’s the really fast version:

* I’m becoming a stay at home dad, which will allow me to resume my work on the project (about 10 hours / week for now, and back to 20-25 hours per week in a few months).

And here are the details of what’s happened these last 4 months:

* Finding another job in my company was not feasible because my family was not in a position to move to a new city
* So, I completed the three certifications I needed to make me more marketable in my field
* After a few weeks of applying, I received a job offer at a new company
* On the same day, my wife received a job offer as well
* I don’t enjoy my field of work, while she was hoping to be able to go back to work after a few years of taking care of the kids
* So, we decided to swap roles (whew!)
* I am resuming my work on the project at a rate of about 10 hours per week
* Once the kids start school in a few months, I’ll have more time to spare, so I should be able to return to my previous time commitment at that point (whoo hoo!)
* Down the road, if income becomes an issue then at least I’ll have the needed qualifications to find employment once again

Thank you to everyone for your support and encouragement. I feel very happy with how this has played out, and I’m relieved to have some certainty about the path forward. I look forward to being able to share my own progress updates again! 🙂

Have you ever contacted Capcom about the project for a more official release?
 
Easily the most impressive HD project I've ever witnessed, especially since it's the exact same assets. You guys are miracle workers.

Best game keeps getting better.
 
That's great to hear, Cris! As soon as I saw this thread title pop up again on the front page I automatically wondered how your personal situation was going. Happy to know you and your family have found a way forward and that you'll get some time to work on the project again!

Thanks for all your hard work, man. We're all grateful for what you and Albert are doing.

Great news all around then, good stuff Cris.

Enjoy!
Just wanted to add my thanks for all the hard work and love you guys are pouring into one of my favorite games of all time. The work looks amazing, hope Capcom recognizes what you guys have done.

Thanks again.
I've learned about this just as I'm about to finish RE4. Why. Why.
Guess I can always replay the game with the infinite machine-gun
It's one of the most re-playable games of all time. I don't know how many times I've been through that game on the four different versions I've owned. I not only recommend the NG+ but trying it over on a harder difficulty, it's amazing how entertaining it still is several play-throughs later.

Great news! I'm glad things worked out well.

Yup - the ball's in their court (and has been a while now :-)).

They're probably not gonna do anything more with RE4 right now I wager since from their perspective they recently did two rounds of re-releases of RE4. Or there might be some legal aspects they might need to figure out or not want to bother with. Though if you've been in touch you probably have a better idea than us of why they're not doing anything yet.
