An unofficial, non-commercial, experimental visual project for Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Edition.
This repository is the project’s control plane: inventories, decisions, scripts, tests, engine code, and release manifests. It does not include original game resources, upscale outputs, runs, builds, or distributable archives.
Maps, animations, and effects are retained only when they remain coherent with the original rendering. Production output, in-game QA, installation, and release selection are tracked separately.
Règle documentaire : écrire pour des agents IA. Toute nouvelle documentation ou modification doit privilégier la densité d’information. Éviter la prose longue, le contexte narratif et les répétitions.
La production quotidienne et la finalisation sont séparées par
docs/PRODUCTION_RAPIDE.md. Un asset accepté n'entraîne pas la
reconstruction des projections ou du package.
La documentation sert d'index de solutions. Aucune lecture préalable exhaustive n'est requise. Consulter docs/UPSCALING_WORK_PREFLIGHT.md ou le README d'un domaine seulement lorsqu'un repère manque pour la tâche courante.
AR0700 · Waukeen’s Promenade · focused x1 / x4 comparison.
| Area | Tracked content |
|---|---|
| Maps | Area inventory, recipes, selections, and x4 render QA |
| Animations | Frames, interpolation, alpha, occlusion, and per-area validation |
| Sprites | Validated x2 runtime with canonical xBR and derived ReboutCX catalogs |
| Interface and graphics | Asset inventories, extraction data, and manifests |
| Engine | Windows/EEex DLL source, shaders, and runtime validation |
| Release | Manifests, installer scripts, and gates; no release is currently ready |
Matched in-game capture: vanilla on the left; x4 maps and treated animations on the right. Creature sprites remain native reference elements.
Sprite work is assessed separately; research output is not promoted without in-game QA.
AR0700 fountain: native and x4 motion study with a refined alpha contour.
- The release manifest is
blocked; this repository does not provide an installable mod. - Validated selections and release integration are distinct from production output.
- The public website has a separate source repository; see docs/WEBSITE.md.
