HRT 1.4 — HD remastered graphics mod for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

This is a graphics modification for GTA: San Andreas that will be created for people, who love true game's atmosphere and want to explore the state or pass the storyline missions with the same inexpressible feelings, like many years ago, when this game was surprising and shaking, but with much improved and modern graphics. Game with this mod will be really carefully and with love remastered, restored and improved.

HRT means high resolution textures, and one of the project's features is full textures replacement. The new textures are maximum similar to the original ones. They are photorealistic (based on author's photos and textures from open libraries), adjusted for colors and contrast of original textures and made in high definition quality.

New textures is not the only feature of the mod: HRT 1.4 also comes with improved game world objects, including buildings and props. Some models are more detailed and smoothed, were fixed incorrect mapping and other defects and added reflections in some cases.

Also in the mod will be other changes.

The mod's development is frozen.

• Total textures replacement of the whole game world (buildings, objects, roads, landscapes etc.) to high quality analogues;
• Total textures replacement of the all interiors to high quality analogues;
• Improved textures of all the vehicles to high quality analogues;
• Redrawn textures with logos and billboards;
• Textures in HRT 1.4 are made in perfect quality and high resolution (from 1024x1024 to even 4096x4096 (4K) resolution in some cases), and are maximum similar to the original ones (the first texture and graphics mod for SA with this feature);
• Textures are exclusive, made by author and based on his photos, or taken (not stolen) from free libraries.

• A lot of models are improved: some models are more detailed and smoothed, on some models are added reflections;
• Corrected defects of the original models (the first texture and graphics mod for SA with this feature);
• Using more materials than in the original game: for example, if the original house model uses the same texture and for the roof, and for the wall, in HRT 1.4 and the wall, and the roof have unique textures. As a result mod has more variety textures for ground, pavements, grass and roofs than the original game (the first texture and graphics mod for SA with this feature);
• Improved main character model with detail fingers (taken from mobile version of the game that was released in 2013).

• LODs are replacing too, for more quality displaying objects on the far distance;
• Using of MIP maps feature (this optimization, so rare for the mods, reduces the load on the graphics card and helped to get rid from blinking of textures);
• Using of the modern tool (Magic.TXD) for textures editing with support of DXT5 compression and high quality MIP mapping algorithm (which gives a better textures quality than in the mods that were made earlier);
• Improved HUD (includes high resolution radar map, radar icons and weapons icons; third-party mods that used under permission);
• High stability of the mod (the full walkthrough of the storyline will be possible without any problems or bugs);
• Completely author's mod, fully an independent project, not collection (mod-pack) of other mods;
• HRT 1.4 is a spiritual successor of HRT Pack (2010), but new mod is not based on any previous, and does not share any their files; this is completely brand new mod that is made from scratch. Also during the development aspects of the mod are constantly discussed with community.
