Either my understanding is wrong, or your not getting at what I'm saying. (I think/ I thought) Hook5 has nothing to do with the texture size 1x / 4x ... In other words, you can be using normal 1x textures with a hook5 skin. If I find that I download a model and she is using 1x textures when I am running the game with the 4x mod I will simply go into activemod folder, find the skin, then upconvert all the textures to 4x standards. Sure it won't be as good as a skin designed for 4k, but at least there won't be artifacts and fucked up looking skin on the model. but I could be wrong, maybe hook5 means 4k 100% of the time. I know the 'Female skin for h5' in the starter content pack is 4k.
Entertain me and try this.
Just in case, as I don't know the version OP included, here is the

Directions:
- Extract updated hook files from 'hook5_basic_version 25.06.2017.zip' to 'Binaries' folder.
- Extract 'ActiveMod' folder from 'StarterContent.zip' to 'Mod' folder.
- open 'main11.fx' and update the path for the default room and the customizer room.
- The reason for this is because hook5 basic doesn't allow you to use the hook menu which allows you to place lights etc, and the cubemap (just think about this as the environment light source for now) is commented out in the 'default room settings', but not commented out in the 'customzier room settings'.
- So assuming the path is correct and that you have left it default, which again is customizer room cubemap enabled and default room disabled, you will encounter a bluish customizer room, but when you go to a proper hook5 room (meaning it has a proper hook5 level definition), it will most likely be pitch black as no lights are placed and the "environment lights" aka cubemap is disabled. This can be avoided by using a third party level definition and not one from the starter pack (who knows this problem could be fixed.
Code:
;cubemap = C:\TheKlub17\mod\activemod\_hook5data\envmaps\EveningField.dds
cubemap = C:\TheKlub17\mod\activemod\_hook5data\envmaps\EveningField.dds
- See yellow highlighted lines for reference on which paths you need to correct to the location of your TK17, and what the un-commented (or enabled) cubemap line looks like.
I suggest you remove the ';' designated character for comment, and just leave the cubemap and the EveningField.dds
For the best demonstration, select the level R_h5p_Photostudio_Ps, then when the game starts make sure to switch the skin to one > 3. 1, 2 & 3 are stock skins, 4+ will be custom. Look for the one that says 'Female skin for h5'
If for some reason the skin is black, just drag the tan/skin darkness slider any movement and it will clear up. If for some reason you are running 4k and the
Note:
- F11 resets/reloads hook5
- ALT + R resets/reloads textures
- The Vagina or Genitalia from 'Female skin for h5' seems to be 1k when the rest of the body is 4k. I think it's only the one.. it's easy to scale up or down using one of many programs. Personally I like Irfan Viewer for single conversions, but if I need to convert a whole folder or many files within folders I will use nconvert which is CLI (or cmd) based / recursive bat. script etc
