The higher resolution patches don't make the game look any 'better' but they do give you the option of running it in a resolution greater than 640x480. I've tried it and I don't really see an improvement, it just makes things harder to spot because everything is displayed smaller. They do include the option of 32-bit colour settings, but to behonest when I activate that it makes no difference whatsoever, I don't know if that's my error or what, but it's my personal opinion that high resolution isn't much of a visual improvement.

However I've heard of a project called 'Mutants Rising' but I can't seem to find out what it is 'exactly'. Then again I haven't looked into it much. But it hints at an artistic overhaul, Ausir will probably be able to shed some light on it

As for graphical overhauls, or maybe from a different perspective, an engine overhaul, I can see this a possibility if a team thought it was worth their time. An upgrade based on Fallout: Tactics would be a good start, or even Van Buren if the engine is similar (I haven't seen any footage so I don't know).

I'm going to be honest here: I did start a new character in F1, but I gave up at Shady Sands. It might have been awesome back then, but now, it just isn't entertaining enough.

Talk to the Overseer once you have the replacement water chip.
