Lightbulb Official P99 Retexturing Thread Mk. II

Now with no compression! We've passed a big hurdle in figuring out how to properly pack everything into S3D archives in DDS format, which is a lossless conversion process - no more quality degradation.

This is mainly a thread where I'll post A/B screenshots so people can get an idea of what the new textures will look like. I'll be getting everything screenshotted in similar fashion eventually, including all of the new weapon and held items that were done by me and Cucumbers, along with new stuff as it gets completed. To kick things off, here are before and afters for the completely redone textures that Nysus, Xevin, and Joyelle worked on - I'm not sure who did what, so feel free to post proper credit. Also, I did some work on the redone SMR texture to make it look less bad.

All human male textures redone:

Here are the others that were only upscaled, to give you an idea of the difference - these ones were not redone by hand, just improved with software courtesy of Cucumbers:

Did some more work on the SMR textures - fixed the lower sleeves being upside down, made the collar look a little better, and made the detailing on the lower half of the robe more consistent with the upper half:

The rest lost some detail (EX: the stuff down the middle of the DE plate)
Also, those black splotches on the dark elf plate chest aren't classic, and are actually just a bug in the Titanium client textures which the transparency patcher fixes - I just forgot to run this on my classic textures before I took screenshots. They sort of look like a design because of the way they pattern symmetrically - here's a better classic-to-redone comparison:
