I am not familiar with the "Highres_4X_HD" textures, but my process has always been to:
1) Install the game (note that the original CD ISOs will use the "lowres" equivalent textures).
2) Unzip and paste the "highres" textures into your install folder, replacing any files when prompted.
3) Unzip and paste the "EQClassicHD" textures into your install folder, replacing any files when prompted. This set enhances the original "highres" textures and provides some P99 client-specific fixes, like transparencies, summoned eye color, etc.
This process will give you good looking textures without any cartoony or low res results. Step 2 may not even be necessary, but I do it anyway to close any potential gaps. If you do this process in any other order than listed above, the "worse" versions will just partially or completely replace the better ones.
Edit: Looks like the 4X textures are kind of an optional further enhancement to EQClassicHD, with much larger files and longer zone time in some cases. Consider it an optional step 4. If you use them after applying EQClassicHD, you'll replace most of the zone/texture files, but still keep some of the fixes/enhancements that EQClassicHD provides. Personally I will probably just keep using EQClassicHD only.
