Shadow of the Colossus [USA/EU] | Origami Remaster

[SadOrigami]

All of this will be ported to Project Tribute, the PC remake that'll feature all the cut colossi!



For this project I've taken the liberty to modify some textures and add detail that a simple upscale just cannot achieve. I've also made alternative and optional textures for things like Wander's cloak, Agro, Map, and more. Every colossi will have alternative textures for a secondary look, that can be muddy, covered in sand or moss, depending on the terrain they live.

The UI icons have been completely remade using pixel art and I'm working on a Hard Mode + DLC with all elements in the UI turned off with the exception of the stamina gauge.

Special thanks to Nomad Colossus for supporting the project before anyone else and the Tribute Team for being so wholesome!​

Absolutely incredible, and you preserved the look and "FEEL" of the original much better than the official remake. If possible, I would suggest Ico as the follow up, since the original game is incredibly old, and the official remake again has a different vibe to the original's.

Of course I'm gonna remaster ICO after this one!!

Nice to hear that one of the greatest (If not the best) PS2 game, still has people improving it.

I already installed the Shadow of the colossus and ICO remasters posted by panda_venom on this forum (https://gbatemp.net/threads/shadow-of-the-colossus-eu-hd-remaster.624038/) & (https://gbatemp.net/threads/ico-usa-eu-hd-remaster.630164/) but sure I'll try yours also and compare the visuals.

Thanks a lot for this awesome job, cannot wait for the updates

Uploaded a fair comparison video! Only textures, no filters, internal resolution 5K.

Updated the post

• Added better formatting
• Added comparison images
• Added Filters and DLC
• Avion's new 3.0 textures have been added to the Google Drive folder

Nomad Colossus and Team Tribute are testing the new textures in order to see if we finally have the finished textures recipe.

Made to be as realistic as possible while retaining the eerie feel, these new 3.0 textures are composed of over a dozen layers of different materials, their job is to create the illusion of polygons where there are none while also enhancing the sharp edges of the colossi, making them look like military organic machines.

Update:
Converted the Valus arena and model textures to 3.0. I'll be uploading a video for every colossus and arena. The AetherSX2 folder will have their textures replaced by 515p textures, as the 1024p ones are too big for phones, this will greatly reduce the grain and noise from the textures as you get far from them while looking almost the same in detail.

​

The Ico remaster was giving me lots of problems, and I forgot to update the thread lol.
