Back in February 2019, we informed you about an AI-enhanced HD Texture Pack for the first Red Faction game. However, it appears that a new HD Texture Pack has appeared today. This new Texture Pack uses an improved AI-enhanced method to upscale the original textures, resulting in slightly better visuals.
Created by DeAngryBoi, this Texture Pack weights around 2.7GB in size. According to the modder, the pack is free from all of the bugs and issues that appeared in the ModDB version. Moreover, all of the textures were upscaled four times from their original resolution.
Unfortunately, the modder has not provided any before/after comparison screenshots. Well, except from this one. And while this may give you an idea of the graphical improvements, we’d love to see some more screenshots. Or even a video comparison.
But anyway, I’m pretty sure that some Red Faction fans will find this mod interesting.
You can download this new AI-enhanced HD Texture Pack for Red Faction from here.
Have fun!

Was available at Moddb for a while, keep in mind that the game’s UI files are stored in the textures files and this mod is for the english version, if you’re using a non english version this mod will make it english + some minor UI bugs, no problem for english tho except a lot of noise on the textures sometimes, i suggest using super sampling
Played this game a few months ago, felt it was way too outdated by today’s standards.
Its destructible environment feature is unparalleled to this day.
Agreed on the destructible environment part, but on everything else like the graphics and gameplay my point stands still.
Dude if you’re judging 2 decade-old video games by today’s standards then you have no point at all.
I didn’t say just graphics, but gameplay too. Also, not every game from decades ago are bad, System Shock 2’s gameplay is revolutionary for its time and it’s still fun today.
Seems like this has that ESRGAN upscale scratch things. Should’ve used AI-Gigapixel.
