Stevie's San Francisco Rush 2049 Texture Pack
Hi there, my name is Steven and I am very passionate about the San Francisco Rush series. San Francisco Rush 2049 was first released for arcade in 1999 by Atari. It was ported to N64 a year later by Midway, then Dreamcast shortly after. In 2005 it was finally ported to Gamecube and other 6th gen consoles by Digital Eclipse in the compilation title “Midway Arcade Treasures 3 (GE3E5D),” however this version of the game has many visual and audio issues, and with some games having gameplay issues. Rush 2049 on Gamecube was no exception and that version ending up falling short compared to the Dreamcast version.
Although some minor issues aren’t fixable currently, the main visual problems can be masked easily with a texture pack. This texture pack fixes many if not all of the most blatant visual problems, and was put together in mind of 1080p. Here are its key features:
How to set it up
- In Dolphin, open File > Open User Folder, then go into
Load/Textures/. - Extract the download there, so you end up with a
Load/Textures/GE3/folder. - Open Graphics > Advanced and tick Load Custom Textures. Ticking Prefetch Custom Textures too stops stutter, if you have the RAM for it.
