What do you mean HD Sprites?
Simply put, the characters on screen during the visual novel is a sprite and I got them to be HD! When playing the game in resolutions greater than 1080p, the sprites look all blurry and pixely. That's no good, especially in a year where more and more people are going 2K and greater. That's why I made the sprites in a higher resolution.

Here's a link[imgur.com] to some preview images!
Why only the sprites and nothing else?
Model Texture Problems
I do plan on doing the model textures, but there's a image size limit and having them in HD severely slows down the loading of the game, I got one of Nepgear's costumes done and it increased the load time, so it'll be some time before I get to them.

UI Texture Problems
The UI really doesn't like being upscaled. In order to do them I'd need access to some kind of code decompiler to adjust the UI code to get it to work and I couldn't find one, so the UI elements will remain as they are for now.
How to install
First things first you need to install the Kitserver to be able to use this mod.
You can get it here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=453717187
Once you get the Kitserver set up, download the file from this my drive link[drive.google.com] and extract it in the data folder in the Kitserver folder, so that it looks like this:
After that you can start the game using the Kitserver executable and should see the sprites in lovely HD.
Any Problems?
Let me know if you run into any problems. I played through the entire game on my Youtube channel and everything worked fine (I had some issues, but only because I named some folders wrong). Once I have the model textures done I'll edit the guide to include them as well.

I wanna know if this works with Neptools as well
if that's the case
should just moving the contents of the GAME00000 Folder to the Neptools folder would be okay
or should I move the extracted folder from the zip to the Neptools folder instead?

In case you are interested, I found that this mod works much better by compressing the files in .tid format and using them with the Neptools tool. That way it is compatible with other mods and doesn't require using another executable.

If at all possible, can you send me the save file you have that's at the current spot where the issue is? That way I can see if I get that exact issue on my end.

No. It's only with the HD sprites. I have an RTX 3060 with the latest drivers.

Liam, as far as I know it shouldn't conflict with Neptastic. Does it act the same way without the HD sprites? I played through the entire game with Neptastic and this installed and I haven't ran into any issues personally.

Also can I get a description of what GPU and driver version you have for it because you might need to enable safe mode in the Neptastic nep.ini file.

Worked great for a while, but now the game hitches when a new sprite appears on screen and some sprites (IF in particular for some reason) just straight up don't show up at all. I also crashed mid cutscene right before going to leanbox. I'm running this on an NVMe SSD btw. Does this mod conflict with Neptastic?

Thanks a lot for this mod, your high-res sprites are perfect. Funny enough, they look much better than the ones IF used in Neptunia ReVerse, which appear blurry and upscaled albeit maybe not as bad as the original.
