Sorry for the delayed response. Actually, you can have upscaled bustups in-game. What you're seeing in my examples are all being used in a current build of PCSX2. They are 2x the resolution of the originals, and I haven't noticed any issues whilst playing the game. I am using the Rexis build to upsc...

I would say that, for the most part, I am now finished. Every bustup in the DATA\BUSTUP folder has been imported into the game, plus the addition of DATA\CAMP\BUSTUP AND DATA\CAMP\PERSONA. I will continue to experiment with other files and see what I can get away with, but I think I should just enjo...

One unfortunate realisation is that because tmx files are limited to 256 colours when you import the upscaled content it introduces slightly noticeable colour banding. Colour banding was noticeable in vanilla, but I think having the higher resolution image only accentuates the issue. Yes I have run ...

Hey man.

They're located in BTL\BATTLE\PANEL\BTLPANEL.BIN

Pretty sure anyway.
I have tried upscaling, but the game doesn't like it, they blow up.

Just an update. I think I've settled on an upscaling process, which involves downscaling, dithering, upscaling and the use of anti-aliasing.

Not to worry Alan! I've managed to get hold of them
Cheers.

Hi Alan, sorry to be a pain. Do you have the bustups for vanilla?

Thanks, much appreciated.

A texture dump of Vanilla would be great, thank you.
Yes, I had experimented with some UI elements and found issues.
Can anything be done about text?

I will continue to trial different upscaling methods.

Sorry, it might be worth mentioning that I am using ESRGAN for upscaling. Cheers!
