Missed the image pack download somehow. Thanks.
The thing about them being higher res feels off though.
Why would Fen put out a version of the game that assumes that you have those high-res images, but not include them in the backer version itself?
The backer version having higher res stuff, I get.
But why would the backer version be programmed to expect higher-res stuff, but not come packaged with it?
Well, whatever. I'll try the dl and see if that unfucks the images.
I explained it badly, sorry. I'm not a backer but a public post on the dev's site explained a bit about how it works. As I understand it, if you're playing the backer builds
legitimately, you can click a button in the menu and the game will automatically download and install the higher resolution images. If you don't want them, you don't have to click that button. I assume that the game files are altered to tell them to use the high res images instead of the low res when you go through that process.
Since we're pirating the backer builds, we don't have that functionality. I
assume that
hentaifelf probably does that process before uploading his backer builds, which likely means that the files he uploads are already set to expect high res images. This is the only way we as non-backers can use those images, since we can't actually use the option ourself afaik.
It's important to note that I'm doing a bit of educated guessing here, I can't actually
prove that that's what's happening.
Edit: As for the reason the image pack isn't packaged together with the build, that's for practical reasons. Users on here were complaining about having to redownload 600 megs of images every time a minor update dropped, so Hentaifelf started packaging the high res images separate so users could download them and then each new build is packaged with only the
new images. So once you download the image pack once, you don't have to do it again.
