Maybe this can be fixed in the future.įrom what I know this texture pack is after serveral walkthroughs and with over 20k unique textures (no duplicates) the most complete texture pack for Dragon Quest VIII out there. I spent quite a time to fix this, but it looks like another weird issue on the emulator / game side. I suggested to add the option for wildcard characters which could solve this issue, but it's not in my hands. The way how the texture replacement feature is written doesn't allow this. But it's unlikely that there will ever be a 100% chance to see texture replacements only. Unfortunatelly there is not much that we can do, except writing down all names of duplicates that we encounter during playing and then transfer them to the script.

Will there ever be a chance to replace all textures ? I will add them to the script, so everybody can benefit from it. If you want to help, enable texture dumping and send your duplicates to me. UI is affected from that in the first place. Even after ~150 hours play time I still encounter unreplaced textures. The emulator will probably still make new copies. Note that this can only increase the chance to see textures replacements. That's basically what the script does: Generating symlinks for all known duplicates. Since it would cost a lot of disk space to make hundreds of copies from these textures, I decided to create symlinks instead. If you want all textures be replaced you also need to replace the duplicates that I mentioned. What does the script file about symlinks do ? Because of that textures which are affected from that get new file names which makes it hard to the replace them, since it needs a new replacement file for each copy. In some cases the emulator fills empty space of textures with junk from the vram.

Why do I sometimes see unedited textures (especially UI) ?
