A mod to replace items in the game with higher quality assets. Starting with the barter items currently I have 40/203 barter folders done now (I'm just moving through the list)

This is the start to my modding journey in SPT. Pls don't hurt me :*

I started with the graphics card and have expanded from there. This doesn't add any new items. Simply replaces the item with my asset instead.
I make each model have multiple LODs and optimize textures and materials to have it be as performant as possible. Of course this mod does still impact performance because it adds more data into each changed model. But I have done further optimizations for each so it should be as minimal as possible. Below shows a breakdown of the new multitool as an example of such optimizations.



I will continue to post updates and edit this mod as time goes on. Check the updates tab because I am going to keep this contained within the one mod as to not saturate the filebase with a million separate mods.

In game preview:


Feel free to post suggested items I should do next!



Currently I am working on:
Power cord

Ratchet
Raven
GreenBat

PSU

More...


CURRENT ROADMAP:


Get to 100 items.


Currently at: 40


**I AM PAUSING ANY FURTHER UPDATES UNTIL SPT 3.11**



If you find bugs then you're probably playing Factorio. Otherwise if bits of my code are borked and not working let me know.


Special shout-out to EpicRangeTime helping me get down in the mud with unity and GroovyPenguinX and the team over at WTT for letting me use a little bit of their code. (the references folder)


The alternate Tetriz model was also provided by EpicRangeTime

If you like what I'm doing and would like to help me pay for some extra models it would really help this modder out. I do this for funzies so no sweat off this ducks back.

  • Version 0.43.0

    Added:

    T-Plug

    Updated support to 3.11


    NOTE: Currently some items are bugged with the item preview window where they look slightly transparent. I am looking into this and will post an update when I have it resolved. I have also currently not optimized all of the textures so there may be a slight performance hit on this update but I will optimize this for the next release.


    If there are any other bugs you discover with this release let me know!


    This is also compatible with 3.10 just need to change the package.json to version ~3.10.

  • Thank you for keeping this mod updated, PulledP0rk.


    I prefer to use the assets from this mod over the original-looking items in the base game. Something about them just doesn't look right after most of the items got a face lift, but with Tarkov HD Item Rework, it makes them look better.


    I appreciate your work bud :thumbup:

    • Thank you! I appreciate your kind words. It's been tough balancing coding for my new job, modding and having a life but comments like yours help me stay motivated!

      Thumbs Up 1

  • Very nice mod keep updating please!!

    • I sure am! I am pausing updates until the next version of SPT (3.11) comes out. That way I can work on getting more and more models in there and have a nice big patch hopefully for when it drops. Glad you're enjoying my mod though!

      Thumbs Up 1 Heart 1

  • where should the “ALTERNATE MODELS” folder go ? user mods ?

    • Nowhere. It is just in case you wish to use the alternate version of the tetriz. It is completely optional.

  • so is the tushonka in full 4k HD now?

    • Not yet. Just the items in the screenshot so far. Barter items are top priority then I'll go from there.

  • what's the performance impact of this?

    • I haven't measured the specific impact of the mod directly as it is still a WIP. This overall does increase resolution both in geometry and textures of the items that are replaced. Overall I have made significant efforts to minimize the impact to FPS but ultimately it isn't going to add any performance but I can't give a specific number yet.

  • this works with SPT 3.9.8

    just have to modify the line : "sptVersion": "~3.10", to "sptVersion": "~3.9",

    clean temp files and restart server and client, and thats it

    • Great to know! Thanks for testing this!

      Heart 1

  • I love this mod! I keep checking back to get the latest versions!

    • Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it! Nice comments like yours really keep a modder motivated to keep going :*

  • i redownloaded twice and it keeps saying missing Package.json. am i missing something or was is just passed over in the update?

    • I just tried the download to a fresh SPT install and it works. Check to ensure that it is in SPT/user/mods/TarkovHDRework

      That error usually happens if the package.json is not in the right area. Unless you delete it that shouldn't happen as long as you are installing it to that directory. Hope that helps!

    • sorry for my confusion, it was the alternate models was missing the json file i deleted that and it worked just fine for me thank you, awesome work with the mod btw

    • Oh yeah that is only there to replace any assets I add into there as alternate appearances at a later date. Currently that only contains a different tetriz. Glad you got it working and thanks!

  • hey man you are doing a great work just wanted you to know that <3

  • the gold phone should be a bit darker and not so bright

    • Yeah I think it needs to be adjusted a bit. Getting gold to look right is tough!

  • Cant wait for some quality NGK sparkplugs or whatever idk

  • it must be such a fun time to edit those textures XD

    like a big project with step to step success

  • Hey I suggest maybe updating the cigarettes? The models on those are really needing some love. xD

    • Yeah I am planning on doing those and making the covers a tribute to one of my other favorite games (Enter the Gungeon)

      Heart 1

  • Thanks again for the custom mags dude.

    • No problem! Got those suckers in my server too now lol

      Happy 1 Heart 1

  • does this affect performance in any way

    Thumbs Up 1

    • All mods do but I am doing my best to keep this as accessible as possible. I have done a lot of work to make these models run as well as possible (see patch notes for the current version). Ultimately Increasing quality at a certain point will increase hardware requirements. My friend running an rx590 and 1440p is playing with this mod on streets just fine with or without it installed if that helps.

  • So, I'm noticing that some of my items are still base game textures when in my inventory, but if I inspect them they have your textures. I uninstalled and reinstalled the mod too just to be safe. Do you have any ideas why that is?

  • honestly an amazing mod, pretty excited to see where this goes!
    also do you ever intend to do the same with weapon models, or no?

    • Thank you! I am open to it. I just helped another modder with custom magazines for their mod. I'm not sure which ones would need it? Any ideas on which weapons need a revamp?


      Current side plans for myself other than this mod is to introduce the S&W 686 revolver Including grips, barrel lengths and muzzle devices. And maybe a .500 SW revolver as well.


      The other side plan is to give some of the weapons that don't get used much some needed love in terms of attachments. Basing mods around what a gunsmith with a moderate amount of skill could actually do. But this current mod is a very large undertaking so that is where I'm focusing around right now.

    • for the first question, honestly a lot of weapons in tarkov, that have kinda just been added and they've never properly changed, like the Tokarev, VPO-101, and the AKs, mostly models the devs haven't updated in like 5 years, no need in overhauls or recoil changes, but I've been staring at the same M4/AK model for so long it haunts my dreams.
      and for the second one, an idea for a pretty light-weight mod, the TOZ-106 irl can have a much longer barrel mostly for commercial use like hunting and competition, the one in game is the self-defense variant, so maybe like a 16in (406mm) or 20in (508mm) barrel that can be equipped along with the accompanying stock, perhaps greatly improving MOA, but weighs it down much more making ergonomics much lower.


      if you'd like I can send you a yt link that does an overview of the gun that could work well for a reference

    • Yeah the vp101 is among the ones that I have thought about. The toz would be good to have variations like that. I'll just probably have to do some research and see if there's a harder hitting round that could fit in there as well. I think I need to get a little better with some of my tools before tackling this and maybe I'll do some as side things when I need a break from this mod

  • lowkey best texture mod

  • Love this mod and I'm looking forward to see which items are updated next... :thumbup:

  • It seems to me that the objects are too bright, maybe make them dimmer?

  • love this. are you planning on making some attachments HD as well?

    • I am contemplating it. Currently I'm going to get through the barter items and then reassess from there. I would be open to it though.

    • yeah,i mean, some recievers or stocks. love your work

    • Thanks! Yeah I have thought about that and also working on getting some attachments for guns that just don't get a lot of love. Obviously those will be separate mods but the fact that the svd has one suppressor that feels like you have a truck attached to the gun is bananas.

  • Hey PulledP0rk, really loving this mod, especially the look of the GPU, LEDX, and Tetriz.


    Only feedback I have is that I find the white items, USB Flash Drive, Horse, and HDD, are really bright. They feel a bit out of place next to other items in my stash.


    Anyway, looking forward to what you do for the Roler!

    • I appreciate the feedback! I'm looking at a different model for the hard drive because I feel the same way. The Horse is a marble statue now so I need to look more at how that material wears over time to strike a nice balance for the texture.

  • how do i get the images to change to the new ones? so far the only one that changes is the gpu.. everything else is the default image still unless i inspect them

    • You need to clear your cache for the game. It's in the launcher settings for spt. That will cause the image previews to regenerate

    • That worked thank you so much! :)


      also seeing and throwing the ram out in dark spaces is my new favorite pass time XD

      Heart 1

  • Please continue to add to this mod, it is very good!

  • Hell, this makes game more interesting!

  • Man this is the lord's work. Top job!

  • hey out of curiosity will this work with fika? Amazing mod btw

    • Yes it will. I run fika with a dedicated client and server on docker images too. So whether you run fika on windows or linux it should work without issue.

  • Hey pulledPork nice mod! I have been looking for awhile myself at changing textures since its the simplest thing I can do and I was looking myself to change the opacity of the snow in game. Its too blinding for me. Unfortunately I ripped almost every file from the bundles and never saw the snow texture which makes me assume its not a texture at all.

    If you ever stumble upon the snow files please one day reply to this message and show me the way XD.

    Since you are already good at this stuff I thought i'd ask a pro. :P

  • Amazing work! Cannot wait to see how the rest of the items look. Happy holidays! <3

  • This mod is truly beautiful. And that GTX 4090 is awesome!
