Love playing SuperTuxKart. I love the ability to change game files to make it my own experience. I love the ability to download custom content through the form of Addons.

I was curious to know if anyone has made some type of ‘Remaster’ of the game, in a newer engine like Godot (No proprietary stuff like Unity or UE), maybe with higher resolution textures or better lighting?

Edit: Apparently, I didn’t have my graphic settings set to max. After setting them to max, I am amazed. The difference it makes is incredible! Especially on Black Forest, it looks almost like a modern game (without the negative parts)!

    Looking at their dev guidelines page, they don’t have any texture resolution limit other than “don’t use very large textures on very small objects”, so I doubt that the project has any really hard caps.

    Do not use large textures for small objects—this wastes video RAM.

    If they are concerned about distribution size, if the game supports it or could support it, might be possible to have a separate high-resolution-texture package, package those separately.
