leandroeidi's HD Mod (Version 0.8 - Updated 29/jan/16)
Current version: 0.8 (29/jan/2016)
In the link below I wrote some things about the mod (that's also in the README file inside the zip) and some images comparing the game with the original textures and with my textures.

-- How to install--
1 - Make a backup of your "[Grandia 2 root folder]\data\afs" folder. This mod will overwrite many files in there and you should keep a backup to make it possible to undo everything.
2 - Copy the "data" folder inside this zip to your Grandia 2 folder. E.g.: "C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Grandia II Anniversary Edition".
-- Things to keep in mind --
- This is a work in progress, so lots of things are still unchanged.
- If this mod makes your game crash or cause other graphical glitches, please let me know.
- I put jpg files that show what each dds file changes, so you can choose which ones to use if you don't want to use all of them.
- All the changed textures are basically 4 times bigger (e.g.: 256x256 to 512x512) so I don't know how this changed minimum and recommended PC settings.
- I try to find fonts that closely resemble the original ones, but they're not the same.
- The main font of the game, used for many UI stuff and even speech text, is a whole different beast to tame. I don't think I have enough skills to change it, but I'll keep trying.
- I'm not an artist, so some things may look strange while other things I'll never even change, but I try my best.
