kizz360's hi res helmets

dont ask for single helmets, DO A 2004 HELMET SET!

Too many choices is never enough!

I'd like to see a Massa and maybe Barrichello

Great helmets!! but dont forget to add the ray ban logo to taku's helmet too

change the name of the thread to '2004 Super Hi Res Helmet Set- BAR Released!' but change it as others are released.

Obviously, only do this if you are doing all of the 04 helmets in Super Hi Res!
You will get much more reaction if you do this too!

agreed they are spectacular!! :D


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

I presume that 1024x256 helmet tex files are bigger, but do the super hi-res helmets slow the game down any more than the now "standard hi-res" helmets? What are the benefits of using 1024x256 as opposed to 512x256? Are the helmets able to be more detailed?

too big 1024x256...the game slow down too much for me.
for now (i mean with current normal hardware) 512 is the right choise.
for the cars have sense to make the tex bigger, but for helmet is too much for me :S
btw good helmet

they make the details clearer, like logos

ull notice it cuz the loading gp4 menu will take AGE but u can always scale them down. i could handle a team or 2 with high helmets, and anywho, most people only want super high res for screenie purpose


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

yes, but you must find a compromise...it's clear that higher dimensions make textures smoother and clearer! but if you follow this way, why can't make 16384x3096?!?! this is not the way....

i use 3 super hi-res Raztahz's Pizzonia, Badoer and Zonta

But his only use 1 super hi-res file (driverxx_1) and one regular hi-res (driverxx_2)

I'm not sure how much it slows down the game, but 20 super hi-res files would slow it down considerably!

Yes,I agree with Luca,Its ridiculous making helmet textures with that big resolution.
512x128 is more than enough.
A 2004 helmet set?
Well thats even more ridiculous,the PO would increase really really high.
Well thats just my opinion.

well he can do a 2004 Standard Hi-Res set!
Maybe one or two Super Hi-Res. Maybe for Schuey, because hes the WDC
