King's Quest IV VGA Talkie
I just stumbled upon this little project. Jerzy Grzechnik is doing a version of King's Quest IV running on Myles' altered ScummVM capable of using custom backgrounds, sound etc. with the original Sierra games. Jerry is using backgrounds from several different King's Quest IV remake projects and has ...

Re: Sierra games don't allow speech and text at the same time.
KQ5CD will never have speech+text because there is no text in the game files. "Never" is a strong word. Potentially, there could be a fan made project to add subtitles for it, especially since there is text in the floppy version. I have no idea if there are dialogue changes in the CD vers...

Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)
It is possible. I have some uncompressed frames on my blog: https://bit.ly/3enlLY6
beware, the blog entry is image-heavy, so it might take a bit to load.

I actually used the DC video for the upscale.

Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)
Here are some results I got upscaling LSL7 Love For Sail (link goes to my Blogger blog, it's pretty image-heavy, so be warned) https://bit.ly/2SOdNyZ Out of all the upscale tests I've done, I'd say LSL7 could work the best as an ESRGAN upscaled version. The graphics scale up nicely thanks to the sty...

Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)
I've been playing a lot with ESRGAN lately and decided to give a go with Larry's acid trip cinematic from LSL7. The end result is pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l8ZYBaBWvc&ab_channel=TheTomimt This isn't Sierra related, but as the result was pretty damned good, I'll post this upsc...

Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)
just out of interest, here's a couple of ESRGAN upscales I did of The Secret of Monkey Island. Guybrush especially turned out pretty nice. Edit, for those who don't want to click Twitter links, here's my Blogger blog post with the Monkey Island upscales: https://bit.ly/3aHDgiD https://twitter.com/to...

Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)
That could turn out to be something truly special. Perhaps even avant-garde.

Re: *UPDATES!* ESRGAN AI Upscaling (HiRes packs now possible!)
I'm sure Monkey Island-series has more than enough fans who would be willing to go and re-draw the backgrounds if just given the change of actually implementing them to the game.

Re: ESRGAN: AI Neural Net Upscaling (For HiRes Packs?)
It just accord to me, has anyone toyed around with AI sound cleaning? In most of the Sierra games, the voice audio is extremely compressed, so it would be interesting if at least some of the compressions hisses, crackles and pops could be cleaned out.

Re: ESRGAN: AI Neural Net Upscaling (For HiRes Packs?)
Here's a small Dagger of Amon Ra test.

Sadly enough, it seems using high-resolution art on Dagger of Amon Ra is still pretty unstable, so I can't really show more than one screen.
