Adding a Terabox link to save some bandwidth on my Mediafire (you're still welcome to use it if you don't want Terabox) and also adding a per folder link for each platform for Mediafire.

Discord

Hey everyone, communication on Patreon is getting difficult. The chat is limited and notifactions are all over the place, resulting in requests getting lost and assisting with issues is just a slog.

I've made a Discord server (very bare right now) that's open to everyone here. General chat and then console specific channels for requests and any issues with textures.

I think this will make managing everything easier as I'm on Discord more often than on the Patreon page.

Free Access Weekend - October

Hey everyone, free access starts today until Monday. Enjoy :)

https://www.mediafire.com/folder/z2xj3g0dsmpoy/Temp_Bl4ckH4nd

I've been locked down at clients the last 3 weeks, but all that work is down now so I can finally carry on with packs.

Here's a freebie for testing :)

Hey all, so someone asked me if I could increase the overall quality of Def Jam FFNY, so for the last week I've been sitting with the environmental textures, I don't think I can increase the detail more than I did. This took a lot of time, combing through the textures, and sometimes it's hard to even see what it is due to the low resolution of the dumps.

I don't think this will be viable on all packs, but I will do it when I can, if the game doesn't have an insane amount of files (like...

PSA for PCSX2 Slowdown

I've been getting some messages from people stating that they experience slowdown when using some of the packs.

I did some testing and I found the issue, it's related to Blending Accuracy in the rendering settings. I've noticed it happens when it's set to Full. So if you experience slowdown, just set it to high or medium, depending on your system, but I've noticed that High seems to work well.

New Packs

PS1 (Duckstation)
C-12 Final Resistance
Syphon Filter (Finally)

PS2:
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
The Incredibles
Urban Reign

Fixed links. Had to move some stuff around, sorry :)

Stealing my stuff Again

So this guy is posting my links on Reddit. I'm going to change the link to the folders again. Seriously....I work so hard on these packs and I do free access to my whole repo every month, since I understand that some people can't pay.

Thank you to everyone who supports me and to those who patiently wait for free access.

New Links

New link for October :)

Superman Returns

Sorry this one took to long. Enjoy :)

Four New Packs

PS2:

Fight Night Round 3
Wild Wild Racing (for the 5 people that remember this obscure little racer)

Gamecube:
Def Jam Fight for NY
Samurai Jack The Shadow of Aku

These EA Sports games are a nightmare on PS2, which is why my previous drop was Fifa Street 2 for Gamecube. I had to deal with FNR3 on PS2 since only FNR2 is on Gamecube. I'm going to focus on Gamecube more for third party titles since they're generally more reliable when dumping the textures but I'll do a...

Spawn, Fifa Street, Burnout 3

Alright, a quick drop before things get too crazy on my end with the move.

Fifa Street 2 is for Gamecube (I couldn't get the PS2 version to load textures properly and so many things were missing)

Spawn Armageddon for PS2 (if you want it on Gamecube too, let me know)
Burnout 3, I fixed the sun/lighting issue and also redid most of the textures, so it looks much better than the previous pack, sadly, it is bigger but it works.

As I've mentioned, I'm moving soon but I am act...

Feedback / Help

Hey everyone, so someone shared that Burnout 3 had some issues with the sun texture (easy fix) but I noticed in his screenshot that some textures didn't load and some looked really bad. So the bad ones, that's my fault, it's an early pack I made and I am ashamed of that one. The textures that don't load are due to PCSX2 updates, which changed the hashes for textures, so this broke some old packs.

If you do notice large chunks of missing textures, especially environmental stuff in any of...

PS2 vs Gamecube Packs

Hi everyone, first of all, I'm sorry that new stuff has been coming in slow. I'm just busy at work and things are a bit rough on my end, we're also moving at the end of the month. I promise, I am working on new packs.

Now, I don't know what's going on with PCSX2 but I've been finding more and more games that refuse to load certain textures, and I've no idea why. I don't like it when this happens, you're sitting with the nice, high res textures and then there are some that's still defaul...

Harry Potter - Again

Yaay, another Harry Potter post. This pack seems to be popular but it also has issues, it's the worst thing I've ever worked on.

Now, I want your feedback, do you want me to do the Gamecube version of the Harry Potter games? I enjoyed Sorcerer's/ Philosopher's Stone and Chamber of Secrets, so I don't mind playing through them again, and I can do Azkaban and Goblet too.

The reason I'm asking about Gamecube, is because I can't do the PS2 version, way too many issues. I tested Gamec...

Harry Potter - Duckstation

Hey everyone, I'm aware of the issues with the Harry Potter packs. There is an artifact on the health bar that I'll try to fix asap.

As for the strange texture warp when you die or pick up a wizard card, that is not a specific textures, it's an effect the game loads in that event and it doesn't know how to handle it with the high res textures, so this is an issue with the game/emulator and not something I can fix.

I was up until 3am this morning doing tests and I cannot fix it. I ...

New Link

Hey all, here is the new link for the rest of September :)

Free Weekend - Almost over

Hi all, I know timezones are a hassle, so this is just a reminder, free access will end at 18h00 (GMT +2) so that's in 7.5 hours.

I hope you all got what you needed, the next free access will be on the 26th of September.

Harry Potter Packs

Hi all, I am aware of the strange issue with the Harry Potter pack that occurs when dying or picking up the Wizard Cards. I will have to find the texture for that effect and remove it. There are over 30k files in the pack, so I'll do it once I find some time.

I've also upload a WEBP version of the pack that's smaller and it should help with those experiencing crashes. I recommend pre-caching the textures at boot and for some reason, the D3D11 renderer seems more stable with this pack. 2025-08-30 08:28:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Free Access Weekend - August

Hey everyone, free access weekend is live, here is the link:

https://www.mediafire.com/folder/z2xj3g0dsmpoy/Temp_Bl4ckH4nd

Enjoy and thank you all for your support :)

Fight Night Round 2 and TMNT

Added two news packs. Wanted to get it done before the weekend but it took a bit longer than I thought.

A few new packs

Hi all, here are a few more packs.

Dreamcast:
Sega Bass Fishing

PS2:
Maximo Ghosts to Glory
Metal Gear Solid (Base game, will work on Substance too)
Updated Splinter Cell Chaos Theory with some missing multiplayer textures

Apologies for the slow releases, been busy at work and had to deal with death in the family.

Just a reminder to new members, the next free access weekend will be on the 29th of August :)

Duckstation - Webp Format

Seems the packs that need all the duplicate files are causing issues due to the massive amount of files. I've converted them to webp and testing now. Size is reduced and there is no loss in quality as I did a lossless conversion.

Texture loading settings:
Preloading texture replacements should be safe for PS1, as long as you have enough VRAM, so you can tick it.
Also tick Enable Texture Cache, Enable Texture Replacement, Enable VRAM Write Replacement.
Do not tick Always Track...

Harry Potter Duckstation Packs

Getting some reports of this pack crashing Duckstation, it might be due to the amount of files, if yours is working or crashing, could you please let me know and also post your specs? I'd like to narrow down the issue. Sadly, Duckstation does not support dds textures, which I usually prefer.

If anyone could provide feedback, I'd appreciate it :)

New Packs

Finished some requests:

PSP:
Metal Gear Portable Ops

PS1 (Duckstation)
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
MediEvil
Rugrats Search for Reptar
Rugrats Studio Tour!

I will be getting to other requests this coming week and I'll be focusing more on the PS2 stuff since that seems to be the most popular according to the poll, I just wanted to finish these up.

Derp on my end xD

With all the craziness the last few weeks, I got my weekends mixed up and legit thought that last weekend was the final one for this month. So I've decided to extend free access to Sunday.

Here is the link, enjoy :)

Reminder

Hey all, I know I've mentioned this before but just a reminder and also just to let new members know, I'm getting married on Saturday and then I'm going away for a week.

I'll be back on the 21st of July and the next free access weekend will be from the 25th to the 28th of July.

Once I'm back, I'll carry on with the requested packs :)
