Version 1.1 is out! - The unique "WELL THIS MACHINE KILLS COMMIES" text on This Machine is now more visible - Wood cracks now don't interfere with that This Machine text mentioned above - Added optional retextures for attachments
IMPORTANT: I've tried to upload it to bethesda.net for you console guys but I find the whole process of uploading it there pretty retarded, so it won't happen, sorry.
Hello, I honestly don't know how I would even upscale the base texture without loosing quality on it (and if it did lose quality, what's the point of having it in bigger resolution anyway?). But regardless, I don't plan to work on this anymore, sorry.
No, as I mentioned elsewhere: "I've tried to upload it to bethesda.net for you console guys but I find the whole process of uploading it there pretty retarded, so it won't happen, sorry."
I have to agree with Spiffy, having every M1 with a bloodied palm imprinted in the bandages is a bit weird. For now, I'm using the "This Machine replacer", I'd love to see a version which simply removes the blood from the bandages for normal M1s, but I understand you don't want to make any alternative versions and I respect that. Thanks for the texture, it's great.
Much as I like the texture in general, I have to concur with the others. The wraps noticeably detract from the overall effect. Aside from the blood issue, they are also hurt by the lack of a model, as they look too flat, and mysteriously vanish on the bottom of the rifle.
Kaktus this is a great re-texture mod, I was thinking about something that might be a good cherry on the top. I was thinking that on the left or right side of the M1 close to the hand-guard I could see a really good pinup artwork by Elvgren or maybe a photo of Bettie Page... Just something I thought of when I first installed it. c:
That is something quite hard for me to imagine. Should those girls be there as a stickers of some sort, scratched to the wood or painted? Anyway, I don't think that I'll add something like that to this retexture, sorry.
On a serious note though, making the text a tad more visible would be cool. Even with the custom animation, it isn't very visible. I personally would find it pretty cool (and a bit funny) if the newest-looking part of the weapon would be the text.
I'm not sure, but I think that the "This Machine" text on the foregrip is not even part of the texture I was remaking (different file propably, didn't see that text anywhere).

Love the retexture, but any chance you'll upload a 2k/4k version?
Cheers.
EDIT: Download "This Machine replacer" so you'll have the only bloody weapon out there.

EDIT1: Yup, it's in the bump map texture file.
EDIT2: Got an idea, might look into it.
asXas made entirely high-quality texture of M1 Garand.
