I installed this mod along with the Unofficial Patch, and while the game gave me a couples of issues (tbh, the tutorial could be remade btw ngl), I think I got to make them work to the main menu. I haven't start playing yet because I have a question...
When doing steps 12 and 13 of the tutorial, opening the D3D9 Render Mod Tools and clicking on refresh textures, I can indeed see the list of textures injected. I can also see a list above the "Refresh Data Sources" and "Reload All Textures" buttons; this list has the same textures ID I can see when refreshing the textures and they have different statuses: some the Streaming status and others the Blocking one. Is this intended? Or all of them must be on Streaming for this mod to properly work?
I'm unable to play with your textures in special k I did everything according to your readme and tutorial video But whenever I try and start the game with your textures the game just gets a black screen with a metal gear alert sound right after the first loading animation and just gets stuck there I tried deleting either one of the folders from textures....tried once only with blocking folder and one with streaming folder but both times its the same I even tried only keeping 1 texture I kept only the kaileena texture in the streaming folder and now the game works fine but crashes whenever I try to get close to the hourglass room as in the game crashes every time kaileena is loaded in
hmm. Might be cause u have a specific SpecialK version installed. Try updating or getting the version i used in the Tutorial. Either that wil fix it, or try changing the version of the SpecialK.dll u use. there's 32 and 64. There's probably a slighter chance it will work with 64 if it didn't work with 32, but it's worth a try.
I tried using SpecialK64.dll But using that I don't even get the menu when starting the game I'm using the latest stable build of specialk from here https://www.special-k.info/ Not sure where I can get the version you were using any chance you can share it ?
also I saw you were telling someone to start game with princeofpersia.exe but I can't exactly do that.... i have to start the game using the prince of persia : warrior within config app could that be the issue ? i tried using the other one but it doesn't let me...
It stops responding and crashes just after you get to control the Prince at the start of the game. I installed the unofficial patch and applied the anniversary mod following the instructions in the video. Help?
When I try to open the game via POP2.exe there's an error that tell me to open the game via PrinceOfPersia.exe. How can I fix this? I use Ubisoft Connect btw
when picking the game through SpecialK, the selected exe you need is PrinceOfPersia.exe. Then, after u done this, u can start up the game through Ubisoft Connect or run PrinceOfPersia.exe if you wish to make a shortcut of this.
No he didn't. He uses files from vargatomi's mod. Your mods looks cleaner to me so I would love to use it but Peixoto's Patch doesn't seem to work for me at all. Texture replacement doesn't, it won't even dump textures. I have Steam version of the game so maybe that's why it's not working.
Replacing BF file works and it seems to load the proper texture. Now if only someone could build prince.bf file using your texture pack, it would really help.
I'm playing the GOG version of this game and the health bar doesn't work properly with or without this mod (the only difference is that with the mod the health bar turns to red). If I take some damage when I have one or more health upgrades, the health texture breaks keeping the damage and the health with blue and red colours until being modified again. Then, history repeats itself. On the other hand, if I try to inject the textures following the steps, the game freezes completely... Please, help me! I really love this game and I would like to play it properly. The textures which works with my version are included in the "POP Warrior Within Full HD Textures Enhanced pack (Refined)" mod using other program to inject them.
Sadly not this month. I am trying to integrate the textures through Peixoto, but got no clue how. Might take an entire year even. However, i got atleast something coming up this week for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. (Nothing major, very minor.)
It just doesn't work. SpecialK requires four restarts of the game to load the folder, and even then, it doesn't load the textures or the entire HD remaster. Only the "POPT2T HD Texture Pack" works combined with "The Unofficial Patch" works well. Please find a way to make it work 100%, like a simple copy-paste solution. From your video, it looks like an amazing project, and I’d love to share it with POP fans! :D
sorry. I wish it was that simple. It's a miracle the mod is able to work even at my end with SpecialK. If the Tutorial does not get it working, then it won't work at all. I'm sorry. Perhaps i can ask Varga Tomi to repack the textures. That might be the only way possible.

I tried deleting either one of the folders from textures....tried once only with blocking folder and one with streaming folder
but both times its the same
I even tried only keeping 1 texture
I kept only the kaileena texture in the streaming folder and now the game works fine but crashes whenever I try to get close to the hourglass room
as in the game crashes every time kaileena is loaded in
Either that wil fix it, or try changing the version of the SpecialK.dll u use. there's 32 and 64. There's probably a slighter chance it will work with 64 if it didn't work with 32, but it's worth a try.
But using that I don't even get the menu when starting the game
I'm using the latest stable build of specialk from here
