About this mod
(deprecated) ffxiv hair texture upscale with many manual fixes
- Permissions and credits
with the release of dawntrail, this upscale has become redundant.
if you are unhappy with the remastered vanilla textures, I recommend you seek out an upscale based on the new textures.
this is a quick reupload to the nexus since the former file host greatly limited bandwidth. i don't really play or mod the game anymore (for the time being), so the last update was for patch 6.2. feel free to adopt!

ffxiv hair texture upscale by sitch
- install with penumbra
- most hair textures scaled up 200%, some 150% to 400% where warranted
- uncompressed since I don't like how it looks compressed
- intends to cover all player and npc hair, excluding those categorized as mount/monster (for now)
- does not, will never include: facial hair, eyelashes, brows and accessories such as hair ties and clasps. not in the scope of this mod
- some creative liberty was taken at times to achieve a good result
- hairs 115 (except f_miqo h115, cba), 147 and 165 are not upscales, but textures provided by SE for patch 5.3. I did however remove block compression on some of them
- skipped some items that get like 5 secs of screentime in a corner
- always split channels for upscaling, since not photos etc
there is still room for improvement, might update📌not for the foreseeable future
KNOWN ISSUES
- f midl hair 4 has seams. it has seams in vanilla. can't fix. too much noob
MANY THANKS TO
- Kartoffel! Not only did she introduce me to ESRGAN in 2020, now she provides upscales for neglected content, wonderful batch tools andassists with my helpless questions! check her out
- ESRGAN folk! This mod would not be possible without them
- Normal to Height app by amushrow
- used models:
- 1x_BCGone-DetailedV2_40-60_115000_G.pth for that smooth look (not actual compression except for Fortemps dads & Gaias hair)
- 4xSGI_103000_G.pth and 4x_cat_patch_330000_G.pth interpolated, magic combo
- for more difficult textures: 4x_BigFace_v3_Clear.pth, 4x_fatal_Anime_500000_G.pth, 4x_FatalPixels_340000_G.pth (interpolated & blended),
- 1x_NormalMapGenerator-CX-Lite_200000_G.pth (blended) for lost causes
- some others especially on older npc upscales
