Here's WCIII HD Pack V1.0

WCP HD Video Pack V3.0 is ready

At @FekLeyrTarg's request, a German Edition is now also available

And because I love and miss my European neighbours:This pack fixes an error in V4.0 whereby I neglected to set all the videos in a VOB container, so they all had MP4 file extensions, which the game won't be able to play back (thanks for spotting that, @Rylex ).If you already downloaded V4.0, you don't need to download the entire pack again - here's a hotfix to correct the issue:Just drop it in the folder where you extracted all the MP4 files and run it, and it'll rename all the MP4 files to VOB files.Since @AD and @EmuMusicFan helped me get hold of and extract the PSX videos:I'm afraid this pack is a- there's around twice as much FMV in WCIII as in WCIV - and although the quality is lower because of the source material, once it's upscaled it's still a shed-load of 1080p videos - so this lot clocks in at around 14GB! @TylerDurd0n pointed out that some people have issues with playback of these video packs in-game on their systems, and that it might be helpful to post some tips to fix it here. Please see this post if you're having issues with playback (extreme lag before videos start, games crashing on video load etc.)The improved compression/optimisation techniques have knocked the file sizes down massively. So there's only a single, ~2GB file to download the entire pack!Massive thanks to @ChrisReid for officially hosting the HD video packs on WCNews! I'm updating the links throughout this thread to ease the burden on my poor GDrive and 1DriveHello all,Total Newbie here - my name's Owen. First of all, thank you to everyone in this community - although I've only just joined, I have fond childhood memories of WC and I've called by WCNews occasionally over the years to make use of assets, patches and all the other wonderful things this community has come up with.The reason I set up an account is I think I might actually have something to share. Having bought WC4 in the recent GOG sale, I decided to see if I could improve the DVD video. I set about using Machine Learning/AI to remaster the FMV footage in HD.I've upscaled it to native 1080p Full HD (not just a scalar/smoothing solution - extra image data is actually added to create "true" HD footage) as well as removing the DVD interlacing, cleaning up the MPEG compression artefacts and remastering the colour of all footage. If you'd like to see the results, I put together a short comparison video which you can view on YouTube here Thanks to the wonderful work that's previously been done to bring the DVD footage into the GOG release, it was surprisingly easy to get the remastered HD footage working in-game. So if anyone would be interested, let me know and I'll see about sharing the remastered footage with anyone who'd like it - all you have to do is backup your original VOB folder in your Wing4 installation and drop my replacement video files in place.Looking forward to any feedback!Regards,OwenP.S. Do watch the YouTube video all the way through - YouTube's compression algorithms actually lowered the quality of the remastered HD footage and you get a better idea of the improvements if you watch all the examples - but the versions I dropped in-game are actually higher quality than YouTube displays.P.P.S. If this proves popular, I might do the same for Prophecy :^)
