Since version v6.1.1 beta 1, the plug-in has been able to load custom user-made textures that replace the original game art. The only other N64 plug-in with this capability is Glide64. Custom textures can potentially improve the graphics quality of games by using textures with higher resolutions than those that ship with the games. Replacement textures can also be purposed for altering a game's aesthetics as well, allowing end users to implement their own textural designs, thus being able to create a different graphical style for the game. Also custom textures can be used for translation purposes.
Rice Video supports scaling filters such as 2xSaI, Scale2X or the HQXX (HQ2x/HQ3x/HQ4x) filters, and has many options available, making it a very customizable plug-in. It can also can be used to dump games' original textures in PNG, JPEG, and BMP formats.
