And give Hevon a big help with the HD Texture pack maybe! ;)

Hevon should already be able to easily adapt the batch file for his texture project. It is a series of 10 steps and they are all broken down. All he has to do is copy a line in each section and change which str2_pc file and which texture from inside it. I set it up that way so it can be easily adapted for just about anything. :)

Thanks for the Title credit. The end result looks fantastic. If you decide to carry on with other city artwork and want some help give me a shout.

Dual credit was the least I could do considering how much you contributed. I'm also extremely happy with how everything turned out.

The one thing I really wish I could find are the far distance textures. I see them for cutscenes, but nothing for the main game world. I have a feeling there's probably a cvbm/gvbm that contains a set of all preloaded distant textures for the entire world to have on hand and that the tilesheet with all the billboards is in that. It's definitely going to take some detective work.

In addition to fixing the distance issue, I also want to release a billboard toolkit that contains shortcuts and additional batch files to make the editing process easier for other modders to use. Once all that stuff is done then I definitely want to start doing some decorating to push the movie theme further and will most certainly give you a heads up. :)

I just had an interesting thought. I could probably update the batch file to also include other world textures. As part of this mod, maybe change the Killbane cutout to be The Terminator, change the crib art to other movie posters, etc.

Excellent mod idea here ( the Flashback movie festival ) and the idea of modifying the batch file to also change the crib art !

When you say 'crib art', is this is referring to the posters inside Angel's gym ( which you may have already changed a while ago ) or the framed pictures that are in the saint's HQ or does it mean all interrior pictures and posters within all cribs ?

Hopefully it means all of the wall images, posters and framed pictures inside the cribs which would provide an additional 30+ images to modify with movie posters that were unable to make it to the billboards due to the amount available.

Including the crib art greatly expands the creative possibilites that we'll see in the near future.
I have been trying to change the pictures that are in the saints HQ ( davepaints ) with some original artwork I created and some portraits of the girl homies but never got it working:( .

I read somewhere that you changed the posters in Angels crib ( that's what inspired me to try to change the art in the HQ ), so now if you also included the crib textures with this mod therefore enabling modders to work on billboards and the crib art, that would be fantastic to say the least.

Thank you IdolNinja for your excellent ideas, mods, advice, quality work and everything you do here.:D

Guys, guys, guys.. Where're the billboards for Jurrassic Parc?!?! :)

Jurassic Park was on the initial brainstormed list. Unfortunately, there are a limited number of assets that could be changed, and JP just didn't make the cut. Maybe someone will do an alternate set of posters now that I released the toolkit (see my post above.)
 
While looking through the files trying to find the preload distant textures, I found all the smaller LCD billboards that weren't changed with EtD. This is really great news since it opens up more billboard options to use for additional movies. :D
