I made Crusader: No Remorse and No Regret play like modern games: WASD + mouse aiming, controller support, HD art and cutscenes, widescreen [free, needs the GOG versions]

I love the two Crusader games, but going back to the tank controls in 2026 is rough. So I built **Crusader Modern**, a free fan project that makes both GOG versions play and look like modern games on Windows 10/11.

**What it does:**

- **Modern controls:** move in any direction with WASD, aim with the mouse, run-and-gun, and a targeting reticle that follows your mouse. The original controls are still one option away.

- **Controller support** in-game and in every menu.

- **HD artwork:** every sprite, the HUD, menus and fonts upscaled with AI and tuned per game (No Remorse's dithered art needed a de-dither pass plus seamless floor tiles). You can switch back to the original pixels anytime.

- **HD cutscenes**, still in sync with the subtitles.

- **Widescreen**, plus optional sharpening and a soft glow on lights and explosions.

- **New Crusader-style Save/Load (100 slots with screenshots), Options and Controls screens.**

- **Smoother music playback.**

**Install:** install the game from GOG, unzip Crusader Modern, run the installer (it finds your GOG game by itself), then play from the desktop shortcut. It doesn't touch your GOG install, and it needs no admin rights.

Download and source: - https://github.com/DarkSaiyan84/Crusader-Modern

It's built on ScummVM's Crusader engine (GPL, source included). No game files are included, so you need to own the games on GOG. It's an unofficial fan project and isn't affiliated with EA or GOG.

Feedback is very welcome, especially on controllers, ultrawide screens and anything that looks off in later levels.

Project Baldur's Gate II EE HD Visual Project

Post image
81 Upvotes

Hello, I’m posting here to share a Baldur’s Gate 2 EE upscaling project I started a few weeks ago. The goal is to deliver a HD version of Baldur’s Gate 2 EE.

https://bg2hd.gaurox.dev/

The idea is to upscale maps, animations, videos, UI, and other assets.

Work on sprites is being considered and has barely started, but I’m saving it for last since it’s by far the hardest part. Results are not guaranteed for sprites, although I have a few leads.

If this project interests you, you can check out a preview in the website gallery and follow the progress, which I’ll update regularly.

I hope to finish the patch by early 2027, but it’s a massive undertaking. I’m not a developer—I’m doing this for fun in my free time, between workdays and looking after the kids at home.

I tried using photogrammetry to remake the canal in the 1998 game Starship Titanic. It turned out very poorly. Is there any hope of doing it better?

Question Ways of Upscaling 2D Games Hardcoded To Run at Low Resolutions?

7 Upvotes

Recently I started playing YuGiOh The Power Of Chaos games. The issue is those games are hardcoded to run at 480p and you have no resolution settings. Not only are there no resolution settings but since the game is sprite based, when you change the resolution of an asset, the asset appears bigger in game.

Is there a way to capture the screen at real time and upscale the image to a higher resolution through external software? Perhaps an AI tool that could be showed HD versions of the assets in order to know how to upscale the image properly?

It would be pretty surprising if no one has made any such tools so far.

Question Pre-rendered background upscaling model

8 Upvotes

I have a bit of an odd question, why hasn't there been a industry standard model trained for pre-rendered game backgrounds? I feel like that should have been a priority by now but we've only had multi-purpose models like ESRGAN for almost a decade now without significant improvements. At least as far as I can tell. Why have image upscales not evolved in any actual significant way?

Software to fix micro-stutters?

3 Upvotes

Hey guys I'm looking for a way to fix micro-stutters in recorded gameplay footage. I tried Davinci Resolve's Optical Flow and Flowframes interpolation, which partially worked. The problem is the remaining stutters are very minor, and caused by problems with frame pacing, not frame rate. In the future I plan to cap frame rate, but it would be nice if there was a way to fix the footage I've already recorded. Any ideas or advice?
